Drakes Fish and Chip Restaurant and Take Away in Harrogate - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Take away fish and chips, freshly cooked and served with banter and a smile. @Good Yorkshire hospitality...and the food was delicious. Would go back.....and you can park outside.

Service was slow, as the server seemed to assume everyone in the queue wanted the same thing and she was impatient, but with everything else pretty much being closed on a Monday, it was a filling meal for not a bad price.

Visited while working in Ripon nhs covid test and trace . Spotless place with excellent staff . Food was piping hot and great portions . No complaints whatsoever and sensible prices , will visit next time we are there . Top notch .

Phoned up and put an order in for gluten free fish. Arrived to collect and found fish had been cooked in same fryer as all the other gluten fish and put with all the other gluten items in the warming rack. My daughter is coeliac...

Ate inside the restaurant. Served by friendly staff. Both had Haddock and chips with a portion of peas, bread. Plus pot of and coffee. My wife's haddock and chips were slightly smaller because she got the pensioner meal. All very tasty and value for money...

We had a take away the service was excellent . The fish and chips absolutely brilliant cooked to perfection and that is something from me a person that comes from a fishing town of grimsby. Highly recommend this place beware (portions are big) good value...

just got a haddock from drakes. really good and large fillet, moist and delicious. so good. absolute value for money. Best around.

Ordered large chips and curry sauce for 2 people and it came to just under £10 so questioned this and it was indeed £3.40 per portion for large chips decided to go for the standard portion at £1.95. I don't think I've ever seen such...

Stopped here twice now on journey from London to Scotland. Fish n chips are exactly right and, sadly 😪 in terms of flavour and texture and sumptuousness and quality, nothing like this is available to me in London (or in Scotland since I was a...

The food was really nice in the restaurant....but the politeness of the girl that served me has to be questioned she was very abrupt when a question was asked

Due to the current Coronvirus situation, decided to have a treat. The man was very helpful on the phone, and the meal arrived quickly, nice and hot. Highly recommend!

A very good and friendly service. Quality fish and chips which we have used several times this year.

Fish and Chip tea, what could be better. Nice food in pleasant surroundings and friendly staff. If you like Fish and Chips then you could do worse than eating at Drakes, well worth a visit if you are in Ripon.

So in area and decided to have fish chips in restaurant .always used to frequent this place regularly and was never disappointed.it's better .outstanding fish and chips .

Battered cheeseburgers are and ‘Off menu’ item but worth the trip to pick one up! My boyfriend lived in Yorkshire for years and then moved south, on family visits he always takes me to drakes and the food is so consistent, fresh and tasty. Don’t...

Maybe it was because we arrived not long before closing but the battered fish was incredibly bland. There were four of us with varying sizes of fish and although the batter was nice and crisp, there was little flavour innit or the haddock. Shame as...

Been eating here for a long time,never got round to writing a review Dont miss out on this restaurant food always excellent,clean,great staff, spot on Dont take my word for it ,Pay them a visit You wont be disappointed,trust me I like my fish and...

Great fish and chips.clean and tidy and accommodated our needs.Didnt want a large portion and didn’t do light bites but allowed us to have a smaller portion.very friendly and helpful.Definately recommend

Can recommend dining in the restaurant here as the portions are very fresh and generous. My father in law got the pensioners special and was unable to eat it all, due to portion size .

We visited Drakes whilst in Ripon buying a house. Can't say I was impressed to be honest. The staff weren't exactly friendly. The chips looked like they'd been sat for a long while. It was pretty rubbish. Very disappointed. Very much doubt we'll go back.

Best fish in Ripon. The batter is beautiful. I love fish and chips and always come back here after trying other shops locally as they just aren't as good.

It is always busy here, and that is proof that it is the best. You order as you go in, and soon you'll receive your requested meal. All different sizes, sauces, salt vinegar, as you like it, Great

Had takeaway fish and chips during our stay in Ripon. Freshly cooked to order so piping hot. Lovely crispy batter and good quality cod served with nice chips and a few scraps which we'd asked for. Quite reasonably priced.

Friends recommended Drakes for fish lunch while we were exploring downtown Ripon. We were not disappointed! The fish was absolutely outstanding and the portions quite generous. For those who might want a little less to eat, the fish comes in a couple of sizes. Definitely worth a try when you are in Ripon!

Came across this place by accident. Serves lovely chips it was the end of lunch and was quite quiet. Chips tasted like they’d been there a little while by that point. Was ok though.

Visited here for a takeaway and lived up to its good reputation. Fish was nice and fresh with nice crisp batter and perfect fresh chips. Just as it should be!! Well worth a visit if you are in Ripon.

Absolutely outstanding and beautifully battered fish will definitely be visiting again although it is quite a pricy fish and chips restaurant

Came across Drake's quite by accident and decided to give it a try. Food was excellent, lovely menu choice, very well priced and good service. Will definitely be calling again!

We love Drakes fish and chips. We have tried other places but they are great, really delicious fish, chips , curry sauce and mushy peas. :)

The service was very good with friendly, polite staff. Plenty of people in the dining room but our order was dealt with immediately and the food arrived hot and freshly made. I have to say it's the best fish and chip meal I have had in years and the price of the food was very reasonable considering I've paid more for take away fish and chips in my local area.Very impressed and will most certainly visit this restaurant again if I am in Ripon again.

Allways visit this chip shop,and why ? Because it is absolutely awesome food.Never had a bad meal in all the years ive visited.

Called here with our two young grandchildren for a tea time visit on our way home from a day out. The meal was excellent, the fish especially was done just as we ordered it, and the children's portions were also very good, served with bread and butter (or was it margarine) and a cup of tea with hot water for a top up. The children's meal came with a soft sugar free drink and ice cream to follow.

I very much enjoyed my fish and chips at Drakes, my first visit to this cafe. The fish and chips were perfect, with light and crispy batter and no grease at all. Bread and butter were included, which I declined, as the size of portion was just right as it was. The price included a pot of tea, which was good and strong, and made two cups. I was pleased to see there was a hot water pot. Service was quick and friendly and I really couldn`t fault anything, only praise it!

Nice atmosphere, where the staff tend to leave you to eat your food, with the occasional check that everything is okay. Great fresh food. Highly recommend in the restaurant.

Never disappointed with Drakes fish and chips. Great quality and very reasonably priced. Staff always friendly and helpful.. Highly recommended.

Tried Drakes takeaway once - the food was very good, but even better were opening hours - they are usually open till 11pm!

Tucked away down a side street, it is easy to overlook this small fish and chip restaurant and takeaway. We enjoyed a very good large haddock and chips each, with tea and bread and butter. Under £20, excellent value and very filling. puddings are available at £5 for two!

great food, great service and great value in very relaxed and pleasant surroundings. Made to feel very welcome

Lovely wee fish n chip restaurant tucked behind the Black Bull. Quiet and relaxed. Young girl doing a great job with service. Very fresh, hot and extremely tasty. Will definately be back.

Had the lunchtime haddock,chips and mushy peas, it was nice though have eaten better. Service was pretty good and food was hot though fish size was a bit mean.

Whenever we shop in Ripon we always try to have lunch at Drakes. Good service and excellent fish and chips that are great value!

Me and my husband had a day trip to ripon with a fish and chip lunch in the restaurant £7.95 with tea bread and butter the service was very good and the lady told us about the work house museum so we had to pay that as visit as we’ll great food as well

The only fish n chip shop open till late! Although it was quiet the staff seemed a little disorganised, they were still friendly though, fish and chips cooked to order so they were excellent, would definitely go back,

Arrived for a meal around 5pm on a Saturday. No sign of any staff in the restaurant so we sat at an unoccupied table. Other diners were either eating or waiting for their food. Probably 10 minutes passed before the waitress finally appeared. She didn't seem overly familar with the menu but took our orders and within a relatively short time the food and drinks arrived - albeit without the included bread and butter which we had to ask for when it didn't arrive.

It has a restaurant, where I have never been, but the takeaway is great. Freshly fried fish and chips, and there are other things, like sausages, to be had. But the Haddock is great, in two sizes, but even the normal portion is big, and the plaice is great too.

The restaurant was quiet but despite this three lots of customers were having trouble.

Too tired to get a pub meal so went for quick fish supper. OK quality. We liked the haddock, good batter. Scampi was tough and had been hanging around for ages before being served to us. Chips too soggy for me. Reasonable price.

This is the second time we have had take away from Drakes & have both times been impressed with the politeness of the staff & standard of had food, highly recommended.

Staff are polite fish and chips are lovely nice cup of tea nice and warm and friendly drake ,s and you don't have to have fish and chips like eny chip shop it can get busy but the wait is good plus side you can go and sit in the cafe side of drake 's or youes fish chip shop ..they do a lovely cheese burger with all the trimmings lovely

Ate in the restaurant. Excellent fish. Rather miserly portion of chips on the £10 special. One hardworking waitress for whole restaurant but some staff training would be of benefit (simple things....knowing the soup of the day, how to clear a table). Despite that, really good food.

Visitamos Drakes durante la estancia en Ripon. Como era una velada tuvimos que sacar las patatas fritas eran muy bien preparado. Gran servicio amable y precios razonables. A una corta distancia a pie de la plaza del mercado y se han ocupado en ambas ocasiones que hemos visitado.

Have tried a few fish n chip shops in Ripon and this has been the best. Fully recommend to anyone. Very helpful and friendly staff.

Hace muchos años, mi pareja y yo visitamos aquí en nuestra primera fecha de hoy es su cumpleaños y ella quería volver como un lujo. No estábamos decepcionados Brenda tenía el tamaño regular de pescado con patatas fritas y guisantes blandos tuve un pez grande con mina la comida era tan buena como la última vez servido bastante rápidamente por una señorita muy agradable. No nos deje tanto tiempo hasta nuestra próxima visita.

Estábamos buscando tener pescado y patatas fritas en Ripon cuando nos encontramos en una calle de madrugada Drakes lateral. Estábamos tan contentos de encontrar este restaurante ya que teníamos las personas mayores especiales y lo que fue una ganga. El pescado era abadejo, que estaba muy bien cocinada, no demasiado gruesas un bateador y no demasiado grasienta. Las patatas fritas eran patatas fritas hechas de patatas propiamente dicho y cortar gruesas, también teníamos Bread & butter con una taza de té fue todo bien, así como una buena relación calidad-precio, definitivamente ir cuando en Ripon

Vine esta noche a recoger 2 chips grandes un salchicha ya no cocina. Mi banco había rechazado mi tarjeta por desgracia, así que tuve que reducir mi pedido y pagar en efectivo, pero la situación se arregló y el chico con tatuajes en el brazo era muy bonito. Me dio la sensación de contento. La comida aquí es fantástica y se nota que el trabajo personal rápidamente y muy bien bajo presión. Siempre nos saludaron con una sonrisa y me di cuenta de que había algunos clientes habituales y el personal sabía sus nombres y conversamos con ellos a pesar de que estaba tan ocupado que creo que es un detalle encantador servicio al cliente.

Recently moved to Ripon. Tried other chippies but Drakes is best. Great take away choices. And has restaurant too.

Acabamos de tener el pescado más fantástica y patatas fritas en el Restaurante Drakes. Como una familia de seis todos tuvimos pescado y patatas fritas y guisantes. Todo era muy fresco y caliente, el servicio era excelente. Estaba muy ocupado en el restaurante y para llevar y se podía ver que estaban muy ocupados, pero el personal nos todavía acogidos. Sin duda alguna de drakes nuevo. Comida estupenda! Gran servicio! Sin duda lo recomiendo!

Vivir en las Bermudas, rara vez tienen una necesidad urgente de F&C; y si no - el F&C; experiencia le deja muy decepcionado. Así que en un viaje de regreso a Ripon no saludable ofertas de cabinas eran lo suficientemente bueno - que necesitábamos F&C; - pronto. Los aromas de Drakes nosotros señaló embraceable como una canción de sirenas debilitando nuestros corazones de salud se potencia. 2 Cod ofertas & chips posteriormente con regate grasas nuestra (nos alegramos (con un puñado liberal de culpabilidad). Fueron los mejores F&C; tenía para las edades. Grasa pero contento

Well what can I say one of the best restaurants in Ripon I use this restaurant a lot once a week I live locally and anybody visiting Ripon will not be disappointed the workers in there are always pleasant and pleased to help you I am looking forward to visit again

we were on the way in for our Friday lunch fish and chips and it started to rain so we went into the restaurant for the first time. good decision. very friendly waitress, very generous portion of good quality fish and chips with fresh bread and warm tea. it was not expensive either. just how it should be. all good.

went on a recommendation and wasn't disappointed and the bonus that the salt and vinegar was on the counter to put on the chips yourself was a nice touch.

Visitamos hoy con mi madre por una rara almuerzo menores tratar. El servicio era excelente, con pan y mantequilla trajo casi de inmediato y pedir ocupaban rápidamente. Ambos pedimos pescado y patatas fritas. La orden llegó rápidamente (quizás demasiado rápido? Tanto que pensamos) y el pescado parecía como si hubiese sido preparado. El sabor parecía confirmar nuestras sospechas ya que era muy seco, con una muy oscura con pasta cocidas. Que no me puedo quejar en el tiempo como madre no puedo decir nada hasta que nos fuimos. Yo creo que ambos no queríamos estropear el almuerzo para la otra! Una pena, ya que habíamos oído buenas críticas y comentarios de Tripadvisor son buenas. Tal vez elegimos un mal día pero no corriendo me temo.

Decided to eat in the cafe for a change. Prices a little dearer than the takeaway, which you would expect. The cafe is fairly small. The portions too big for a small appetite but they were helpful by allowing me a child's meal, which is a rarity these days. Ok service. Food good and plentiful. Was a little chilly when we visited but it was cold outside too.

Have bought food from here several times and always find it hot, tasty and filling. Prices about average for fish and chips. Has a sit down restaurant but cheaper to take out and sit on the wall opposite! Never had a problem either eating in or takeaway.
