Went as a birthday treat, it wasn't peak season and half an hour before the kitchen closed, so it was quiet, but the food was delicious. We even got an extra side free of charge as the kitchen was closing. Will definitely go again for a special occasion.

Beautiful dinner. Definitely the best seafood available in the Scarborough area. Excellent service. Will definitely visit again next time we’re over that way.

We booked a table for an evening meal and were informed on arrival of the food we couldn't have as they had run out of certain things... So while waiting and deciding what to eat I asked for a pint of draught lager, sorry it's off, we have run out. Bottled lager it was then. My fish and chips were ok, but £20.... Really! The rest of my group were not impressed with the food they were served or the substitute ingredients and at £50 per head for wine, a couple of drinks and the mediocre food we won't be returning.

Gorgeous restaurant - service is wonderful and the food is amazing. Fish is fresh and tasty - lots of lovely extra touches like order taken in the bar and bread at the table. The tartare sauce and mushy peas are especially great :)

Reservamos con antelación (como siempre lo hacemos y nos alegramos de que la gente entró y fueron rechazados!). Ha tenido un cambio desde nuestra última visita y ahora hay un menú separado sin gluten. Tuve la comida para empezar y pude tener el especial de bacalao / langosta hecho sin gluten! He visto publicaciones en su página de facebook diciendo que se va a mudar a Bar Street (más cerca del centro de la ciudad), así que estamos deseando volver a verlo en el nuevo local!

Nos alojamos unos días en Scarborough y nos encontramos con este restaurante cuando miramos dónde comer. Fuimos temprano y era tranquilo, pero algunos más llegaron mientras estábamos comiendo. La señora que toma la orden era muy hablador, dio un poco de historia del restaurante y la ciudad y cubrió las opciones de menú. Mi esposa y yo tuvimos una sabrosa comida como entrada, mi esposa luego tuvo scampi y yo tuve el pescado y el curry de langostinos. Ambos excelentes. El vino era muy sabroso y a un precio razonable. Sin duda volvería a visitar la próxima vez en Scarborough.

Food was exceptional, couldn't fault it at all. The dark haired lady that took our order was lovely, however the other lady was really rude and rolled her eyes at me when I said that I didn't want to see the dessert menu because I was stuffed. It was such a shame that she let my experience down with having had such a lovely meal until that point !

Cuando llegamos al restaurante estábamos un poco aprensivos pero una vez dentro y sentados con un menú, nuestras dudas desaparecieron. La bienvenida fue amable, el ambiente era un ambiente relajado junto al mar, pero la comida era la estrella. Compartimos un entrante que incluía la cremosa sopa de almejas y que estaba realmente delicioso. Pan caliente complementario y una selección de mantequilla fue un toque encantador. No tuve quejas sobre mi termidor de cangrejo caliente como entrada. Buena suerte en tu propuesta de mudanza.

Disappointed by the lobster presentation . No samphire, rather soggy salad and a very small half a lobster. The haddock was good, in both regular and large ... Service not that relaxed initially especially on ordering why not at the table? but sat in reception...rather like a waiting room?

Ordered the sea bass and scallops, easily one of the top fish restaurants on my list. Scallops were juicy and tender, well seasoned. What made the dish exceptional was the exquisite orange scallop rum sauce on the side which added an extra touch of umami and sweetness. Pre meal bread was served fresh out of the oven, nice and toasty. Great service and staff.

Very nice fish restaurant. Waitress was not very 'on top of her guests', which can be fine, but if you need something, she wasn't present. And when she came in, she wasn't looking around. Also to order in the bar half, and order there before being seated seems to me a silly procedure. At least no reasoning was given. But the food was excellent

Having previously visited Cafe Fish, we booked on both the Friday and Saturday night for our weekend away. There is an excellent menu choice which includes traditional fish and chips, and dishes containing prawns, mussels, salmon, lobster, oysters, sea bass, plaice, skate, scallops, haddock kiev, and seafood chowder. When seated you will find warm bread with small pots of fresh butter and garlic mayonnaise. All food is cooked fresh and is substantial and of excellent quality. The price of the food represents outstanding value. The service staff too are excellent. We will be returning in future to this classy restaurant and would highly recommend Cafe Fish to other visitors.

Possibly the best fish dish I have ever tasted. Charming rustic interior. Lovely and professional service, lovely bread with aioli and butter and water at the table. We tried the chowder to start which was pure warming comfort food with intense flavour. We both had to try their award winning Plaice Fillet Stuffed with Lobster & Prawns for our main which was amazing. The most incredibly delicate and fresh fish I've ever tasted, beautifully complimented by its bed of fresh veg and samphire and a perfect creamy thermidor sauce. Just wow. The dish is amazing value for money also. Would return most definitely, this is likely the best destination for seafood in the area.

We ordered him a kids portion of mussels and the chef steamed them without garlic/onion, safe to say he ate the lot!

We love Café Fish and eat there at least once every time we are in Scarborough. We've been back since the founder sadly passed away and it was as good. Just been again. We will go back, but not with the same desire as in the past. Quite a few menu items unavailable. The food was still very good, but something isn't as before. My main was pre-pared and from the freezer - at least that's how it felt. Menu is good, but not changed in years. Not a problem, as if available, it is very nice. I would offer seasonal veg, freshly cooked. Same little tureen of same veg, every time. Again, desserts nice but choice not changed in years. Service - good, but not excellent as before. Starters and desserts in sundae dishes really should be served on a small plate or saucer. Clearing plates shouldn't be piled up on the table in a top class restaurant. The dining room was chilly. Some things not available, mains, drinks etc. Whisky served in a brandy glass. Don't get me wrong, we'll go back. I love Café Fish, but it's dropped a league. Excellent to good. Get these bits polished and you'll be back up there.

Absolutely phenomenal fish and chips. The fish was tender and had a lovely light batter. The chips were crispy on the outside and soft and steamy within. The tartar sauce tasted homemade. We were lucky enough to be able to get our food to go as we were on duty with work, but the restaurant looks lovely and worth a sit down. The service was great and we felt very welcome. It's in a nice quiet area of town. Thanks very much and we hope to return in the future.

After reading the menu and seeing the TripAdvisor reviews, we were quite excited to dine here, especially as we had travelled from Leeds to eat seafood at the coast as it's theoretically fresher We started the meal Saturday evening with crab, plaice, and prawn cocktail off the menu (main staples in a fish restraunt, surely? ) It also has a strange setup as you're made to wait in the bar, then place your order before you're seated (even though the restraunt was empty) The signature seafood chowder starter was split, lacked any shellfish whatsoever and tasted like it was heated up from frozen. The sauce the mussels came in was watery, and the garlic in it wasn't cooked through. It didn't improve with the mains as the fish pie tasted pre made long before it was needed and the fish pie was topped with over baked cheese, grey potatoes and tasted bitter my wife's lobster and scallops consisted of half a lobster shell full of mushed up lobster and scallops that had been cut in two/three slices obviously to make it look like a generous portion. The accompanying vegetables were a slimey tomato and pepper salad and a small pot of overcooked green beans, carrots, and cold over cooked fried potatoes, although the broccoli onthe top did look fresh. Needless to most of the meal went back to the kitchen. we would have complained at the time but the couple at the next table had already beat us to it and there were only 2 staff we could see so we paid the bill and left very disappointed and £74 lighter. I can only say at this point the positive reviews on here could only be from the customers who went there for the £20 2 course menu or it was a completely different chef that wasn't using a microwave. Defiantly wouldn't recommend it

Very poor. We have been here several times before and rated this restaurant. Tonight was appalling. We paid the bill as we are not into complaining to get the bill down. The waitress was extremely rude and provocative when we explained what we had experienced. We asked to see the manager and the chef came out and once he realised we had already paid he didn’t want to know and was just irritated. I had Scallops, an expensive dish, and received 3 the size of a large pea, and 3 very small so called King prawn. A minute meal for Almost £30. We’ve eaten here before when the main course was 3 times the size. When we complained the chef said they had to cut the portion sizes due to cost. Be prepared for a big disappointment if you visit this place. It’s s shame as only last year this was one of our favourite restaurant on the east coast

My girlfriend and I ate here for her birthday and it was one of the best meals either of us have ever had. The staff were lovely and offered helpful insights into the menu which paid off big time. The highlights were the seafood chowder which rendered us speechless (very uncommon). It was just so tasty, hands down the best chowder either of us had ever had with such a wide variety of fish all coming together as seafood heaven in a cup. For the main my girlfriend had the catch of the day which was red bream (on the waitresses recommendation) it was incredible, perfectly cooked, really generous portion size and the sauce was to die for. I would wholeheartedly recommend that anyone eat here, the food is outrageously good and offers unbelievable value for money!

Cafe Fish does Seafood & Scarborough proud. If you don’t live near the East Coast town it is still well worth the journey! A range of seafood meals await your selection, many of which are unusual to other Seafood Restaurants. As an illustration I chose Plaice, stuffed with Lobster & Prawns which was cooked to perfection, with lovely presentation & tasted amazing! We will return!

Went on new years eve and expected a nice relaxing meal then home to let new year in...instead was only in there for one hour, 3 courses thrown at us one after the other, waitresses rushing about gave me indigestion, fishcakes hard and overcooked, sauce on main meal was stone cold as was my husbands, forgot our veg so had to ask but when it came it was hot but by then we had nearly finished our meal. Ended up leaving feeling really sick and bloated due to eating 3 courses so quickly.

The environment and service were very good. Our party chose food from the lower price menu (This might have been something to do with the problem). We ordered 3 x Yorkshire Brie & Mushroom - all 3 were under-cooked, the brie was still cold and hard in the center. Followed by mains; all served on only slightly warm plates which made the food cold. After being highly satisfied with this restaurant for years this is the first time we have not been pleased.

Our first visit to Cafe Fish in Scarborough was just fantastic. A huge selection of dishes on offer. As a coeliac, eating out can sometimes be a bit of a trial, so being able to choose from a separate and extensive GF menu absolutely delighted me.

Shipyard is round the corner from Cafe Fish and run by the same people. Informal for breakfast and lunch. They bent over backward to avoid my food allergens and presented me with 2 excellent brunches on 2 consecutive days. 1 full English breakfast and 1 smoked salmon dish accompanied by a roast capsicum salad. I could have eaten a bowl of that by itself and been happy. Staff very friendly and helpful.

The staff were fine and friendly but the food was extremely disappointing. The menu reads well but our food was pretty tasteless and was certainly not individually cooked. We thought it was ordinary and probably microwaved. What a pity - Cafe Fish has the opportunity to be the main fish restaurant in a major coastal fishing town and claims to use fresh local produce but we think it was frozen not fresh. The lobster meat was mushy which indicated it was frozen and we question whether it was from the North Sea at all.

AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS AFTER THIS EXPERIENCE I READ THROUGH PAST REVIEWS AND THIS ISNT THE FIRST TIME HES DONE THIS!!!!! Complete shambles. I when i was asked how my food was i complained that the tail of my lobster was very chewy. The chef, who is also the owner then came back from the kitchen shaking with anger being rather aggressive in-front of the whole restaurant telling me i don't have a clue what im talking about, he said “what do you know”, he then muttered underneath his breath and walked off. I have never been so embarrassed when going out for a meal, i felt so insulted i just got up and left with my partner, leaving the majority of her drunken chicken half of my lobster and two more than half full drinks. I really dont know how a owner would think it’s acceptable to speak to customers like this over something so trivial. In my opinion the owner is in the wrong business and doesnt know how to conduct a business or him self, his wife who is the other owner didn’t handle the situation any better. I wasn't even going to pay them as I didn’t think they deserved any of my money after ruining our evening and embarrassing us, luckily for them my partner took pity on them as they seemed desperate.

Selected this restaurant for a 70th birthday celebration meal and was quite disappointed for several reasons. The place was virtually empty on an August, Friday evening - never a good sign. The service was haphazard and the food mediocre. The champagne we ordered was not served at the table, but opened behind the bar with the waitress spilling half a glass on the floor - with no apology! The 'whole lobster' I ordered was served without it's claws, or claw meat. When I suggested to the waitress that they could hardly call a lobster served without its claws 'whole', she replied that "they didn't have the space" to serve with claws!!! and then said that this was the way whole lobster was normally served in all the local restaurants. The following evening, in another restaurant not 50 yards away, I ordered whole lobster and was served, as expected, a whole lobster with the claw meat, it having been removed and plated by the chef in the kitchen. Overall a disappointing experience.

Two visits last week confirmed that Cafe Fish has maintained the previous high standards. Both visits started with the excellent Chowder Platter and ended with a tasty local cheese board.

Lovely restaurant - looks nothing from the outside but the inside is great. We booked on the spur of the moment to have something different and we couldn't have been more pleased. There is a good range of food on offer, hubby had plaice stuffed with lobster, served with chips and vegetables. I had the drunken chicken as seafood doesn't agree with me unfortunately, the chicken was lovely and moist. I didn't have a dessert as I was full but hubby had cherries jubilee and he said it was lovely. Definitely a place to try - recommend you book as it is a busy restaurant.

We came here for an early evening meal with a family of 6. There were a few items not available, odd for a 6pm booking, and when asked about some of the menu items the senior waitress seemed to know nothing, other than "I like salmon". Most of the food was good, although the fish portions were all very small. Most other portions were at best average but were tasty. King prawns worth avoiding - bland, not fresh, and tiny. However, the sea bass and king scallops main course was abysmal - a tiny fillet that was inferior to anything you'd find in a supermarket isle, and scallops that weren't kings and certainly weren't fresh. Also, both were overcooked significantly. All set for a pretty ok meal overall (for 4 out of 6 at least) and an alright review, until the meal was over. We were instantly offered a dessert menu, good, but declined. Didn't see the waitress for another 15 minutes and only then after 2 attempts to call them over. There were dirty plates sat on the table the whole time. When asking for the bill, I was told "we're busy, give me a minute". 15 minutes later, I finally flag down the other waitress. Dirty plates finally cleared. Attempt to pay, but they don't take amex, despite advertising that they do on their door and their bill wallet. As we had been waiting so long, the rest of the family (inc 2 young children) had gone to collect cars and move elsewhere. The meal was justvover £200 so we paid the max 99 contactless on other 2 cards, wouldn't allow us to waive the final few quid of the bill or deduct anything for the now 40 minute wait to pay. The blonde waitress was ok, the red head condescending and unapologetic. Soured an ok experience and means we won't be returning. No hint of an apology or understanding from anyone for the waiting or the card issue. Not a fan of leaving a restaurant on an argument or hungry, sadly got both. And now one of our group is violently sick after their meal.

We loved this restaurant! We arrived about 20 minutes before opening and decided to wait. The chef realized that we were there and invited us to come in and wait inside. He described the dishes and was just lovely. We both e joyed our delicious meals. The sea bass tasted like it had just been caught!

Started off great, very attentive service taking or orders and the food was undoubtedly delicious. However after being served our mains not one of the 3 waiting staff came to ask if everything was ok or asked if we’d like more drinks or if we’d like desert or coffee. Infant we were ignored. We decided to ask for the bill rather than spend anymore as it became obvious our custom want appreciated. Even then not one question as to whether we’d enjoyed the evening. We even rounded the bill up as it was easier to divide, not a smile or thank you was offered. We Walked out and nobody said thank you for coming. Very odd. We would have spent another £80 on wine and deserts if only we were shown a bit of service. Bad management I guess. We won’t return.

If you’re looking for a restaurant in Scarborough, that knows how to cook fish and has local catch, this is the place. Small and friendly restaurant centre of town.

The only problem we had was choosing what to order. Huge choice, mainly fish but plenty of meat dishes also available.

A friend recommended Cafe Fish and I am so glad they did. Every single course was amazingly good. The service was the best I’ve ever had. Could not fault a single aspect of my visit and neither could my partner. Already looking forward to my next visit when I’m back in Scarborough.

Service really slow. Bread brought before drinks order taken! Then given Wrong specials menu.... which we ordered from then were told we couldn't have! Trainee waitresses on so everything a bit on the faulty towers side.... she wasn't allowed to do anything. It was OK. Husband had skate wing. Fish good. Side of vegetables over salty and 2 pieces of potato. He was starving by 10.30. It was fine. But not amazing. Big bonus..... dogs made welcome.

We have visited Cafe Fish before and had a delicious meal, when back in Scarborough for a concert we were looking forward to a return visit. Sadly, this visit was a bit disappointing. We were seated at a fabulous window table which gave us a...

What a divine food experience. Lobster Thermidor and a hake dish with crushed potato and cheese topping followed by an ice cream sundae to die for

Venimos aquí cada año cuando estamos en Scarborough. Tenía pescado al vapor y mi marido tenía pescado con patatas fritas. Gran tamaño de porción y delicioso. El personal era muy amable y el servicio era genial. Conocimos al propietario Paul que era un tipo muy agradable y muy acogedor. Sin duda recomendaría este restaurante.

Very nice people but the fish and chips were very greasy and soggy! Must have caught them on an off day!! Not bad prices though.
