George-a-Green Fisheries in Wakefield

Chips like my dad used to make. Tastiest chips anywhere in the uk. Fish was good the batter is lovely and crisp. A little dark coloured for some but I would say absolutely spot on for me. Great portions too

The best local fish and chips by a long way. The chips are lovely and brown, properly cooked, and the fish is large and perfect. £9.50 and well worth it. If you're into rugby league, the shop has lots of memorabilia too.

Quality product and generous portions

The best fish and chips we’ve had in years, probably the best ever. I don’t even like haddock but it was perfectly cooked, beautifully moist inside and with very crisp but not dry batter. The chips were dark as you used to get them years ago and with a great depth of flavour. The chap who served us was very welcoming to everyone and obviously knew most of his customers and it is no wonder they keep going back. My husband ordered the special and it was immense. In the photo it makes my standard portion look tiny! As it was a nice sunny day we sat outside and ate them at one of the tables just to the left of the shop and the area was very clean and tidy. The display of spring tulips in the planters outside was good to see too. We’ll definitely call in again. Well worth the bit of a detour.

Visited today after seeing this chippy on rate my takeaway , wasn't disappointed best fish and chips we have had in years , definitely will be going back when in the area .

Fish & chips, chips very well done but lovely. Asked for fish not too well done, again looked very well done but cooked just how I like it. Service was good & wasn't waiting too long despite fish being cooked to order.

No chippy comes close to this place!!

Think they need an oil change 🤔

Once you've been here you won't go to any other chippy. The fish was as white as snow inside . The chips are the best I've had since I was a kid . If your reading this get your self down and treat yourself. ✨️

Traveled from Washington today just to come here, fish & chips were unreal and the bloke even brought mine out to the rear car park, excellent service.

My husband and I tried fish & chips from here. Very rare meal for us. The fish was large. Unfortunately everything was overcooked. Expensive meal went into the bin.

Best fish and chips by a country mile! The haddock was a good size and perfectly cooked with delicious golden crispy batter... fantastic chippy.

Been Today for the first time Absolutely outstanding service! Made us laugh and made us feel welcome definitely going back drove 40 mins but was worth it best chippy about!

Staff are brilliant. They are always good for a bit of a laugh. The fish and chips....Best in Wakefield!!!!

Excellent in every respect, fully deserves its reputation. Superb quality fish, chips and mushy peas, friendly and cheerful staff. Well worth the trip, will have to find another excuse to visit soon.

By far best fish n chips I've ever had fishcakes wow meal on there own 👏👏👏

Wow … just wow … travelled from Sheffield to here after watching rate my takeaway and it did not disappoint. Could smell it as soon as we got out of the car and the taste certainly met expectations. Delicious crunchy batter with beautiful white fish inside which was cooked to perfection. It was also the size of a whale and chips like my Nan used to make too. Staff were lovely and friendly. Will be back to try the fish cake. We did throw in a walk around Wintersett Reservoir to try and account for the calories consumed.

Saw this on rate my takeaway so drove from Sheffield today and wasn't disappointed, probably the best fish and chips iv ever had and the peas , curry , and gravy all beautiful and for what you get the prices are great , last note the staff was very welcoming and friendly

Wow what can I say I gpt recommend by a lad i work with who lives in the area said to try and I'm not disappointed what so ever chips and fish cake was the best I've had in ages I work local to here and this is my now go to fish and chop shop

Have seen some very positive reviews so thought I would have a trek over to try these today. Absolutely bang on. Superb quality fish and chips at a very reasonable price. 👍🏼😁

Absolutely banging.brought me back to my childhood.really friendly people and really tasty food.id give this a million stars if I could.this chip shop is and always has been the best.in my opinion x

Friendly staff, very popular and great food.

Ah love me a good fishy and chippy in ma mouthy. This fish is the best fishy for me

Best chippy in the country! Cooked the traditional way in beef dripping and no anemic chips! Won't go anywhere else by choice.

Best fish in wakefield at good prices

Absolutely 💯 best chippy in Yorkshire lovely friendly staff and owner 😀

Just wow! Double cooked chips 🤤 and fish freshly cooked to lovely deep brown batter ! Proper mushy peas. And tasted amazing. Saw a guy order a special , looked like a giants portion 🫠 again all fresh. Cannot rate this place enough 😍

best chips i have had nice and brown not the soggy crap you get at most chip oils £2,70 however was asking a bit for a bag of chips .this will not put me off i will save up and go again

Really lovely fish and chips. You may be waiting a little while, because it can get incredibly busy, but it's more than worth the wait

Called for a fish cake butty and a few chips. Chips were very bitty, but the few decent chips there were tasted nice. However, the fish cake was a complete let down! The fish inside was just huge amounts of minced white fish! I’ve lived in Yorkshire all my life and I’ve never had a fishcake/fish turnover like this, it was inedible! The guy frying was a happy, chirpy fella but the two women serving were really slow! One especially was really miserable and was just constantly watching out of the door whilst scowling at anyone coming to the shop.

Had to give this place a second chance ...so glad I did .everything about the meal was perfect. My new favourite fish and chip shop....

Travelled from Leeds after reading reviews and watching rate my takeaway. Was expecting great things and certainly wasn't disappointed. The portains were huge, fish, chips and peas for under a tenner, great value. Visited on a Friday dinner time and they were queueing out of the door. Suppose that says it all really.

Best fish n chips ever 😋😋😋😋😋 Busy for a reason 👍🏻👌🏻👍🏻👌🏻

One word! Unbelievable The fish cakes are amazing! Packed full of fish and potato! Staff are great too

Just amazing great fish and chips funny staff.

Delicious huge fish served in a bread cake. Tasty crispy batter with flaking fish fillets. One of the best I’ve ever had. Friendly, welcoming staff who obviously know their craft.

The best fish and chips that I've had in a long time! I had the special, cooked to perfection! Also, their fish cakes are top notch! Service with a smile! Absolutely no complaints at all... can't wait to go back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I must admit that although the reviews were good the photos didn't inspire me with confidence. How wrong could I be. The chips were just like the fish shop chips I remember from the 1960s, the best I've had in decades. The fish was so tasty, big flakes, crispy batter and massive. This is now officially my favourite fish and chip shop.

Lovely customer service. Really friendly people.

Good portion size nice fish and chips

Fish & chips were lovely but shame about the rude,miserable woman that served us, the words please & thank you would have been nice!!!

I've never seen a special fish SO big! This would have fed 3 of us Beautiful, big chunks of pure white fish 🤤

Wow, I can say this place serves the best fish and chips i’ve ever had. Honestly! Next on the list to try - fishcake!!

Good sized fish compared to some fish n chop shops

Best chippy going, all cooked in beef dripping, tasty food, great staff,

Fantastic food great value for money

A usual busy day working for the NHS. But my job brought in the area of this place I wanted to try. The fish and chips were as I expected infact the fish was very big and tasty, unfortunately the lady that served me was holding a conversation with someone else she knew obviously a local and regular but when I had to ask for salt and vinegar the salt was just added to one spot she didn't even look what she was doing grabbed my money and no thank you,so some of the beautiful fish was salty just bad service and spoilt good quality fish and chips.

I've been here before and it was the best fish and chips I've ever had. But tonight, we 100% got frozen chips. They were all scabby and hard. Not sure if it's changed hands but definitely not going back.

First time but loved it - good traditional Haddock - regular is huge - cooked in Beef dripping and they only use butter for the bread -my daughter has a rapeseed allergy so this was perfect for us - nice banter with the staff and it's a busy place but it has a large carpark around the side and picnic tables for when the weather's good - looks very inviting from the outside too with flower displays - very clean and cooked to order - open lunch and tea time every day during the week and Saturday lunch and was cheaper than the other fish n chips we have frequented previously - will definitely be our go to fish n chips shop in the future - hands down beats the competition

Good fish and chips and great portions

Fish was great sorry can't say same for chips, but that is only my opinion. Tried there scallops and would give them 8 out of 10.

Terrible Friday lunchtime. Absolutely awful fish well over done chips very dry worst fish and chips in a long time. Special treat but wouldn't go again I'm afraid!

First time trying this chippy and u can honestly say it's the best I've had in wakefield. Will definitely be back.Great sized portions and excellent service.

With out doubt the best fish and chips in Wakefield

First timer today best fish and chips ever I will be going on a regular basis now massive fish and I did see a special been put in the pan it would feed a family of 4

Probably some of the best takeaway fish and chips we have had. Definitely recommend.

Called for tea tonight ...as it was closed on ban holiday Monday . Worth the the drive and brilliant ,fish the best I've had from a chippy 👍

Not had many better and I'm 73.👍👍

Got fish and chips, battered sausage, peas and curry, and they split it so me and the wife could share. Perfect! (Photo shows half)

The best fish and chips we've had in a while. The portions were massive and great value for money and tasted gorgeous. It'll definitely be our go to place now.

This had been on my list for quite some time, and finally got to visit yesterday, and it did not disappoint! Everything was freshly cooked, the fish and batter were just gorgeous, the portions are huge. Excellent value for money. Would definitely recommend 👌

An iconic takeaway chippy for enthusiasts of fish and chips. Small shop but extremely busy - cash or bank transfer only - no cards. Limited menu. Fish and chips £8.50, Yorkshire fishcake £2.90 - sausages and potato scallops also available but unsure of the price. The portion is good for the price and very tasty. The batter is darker than most but that doesn't affect the taste. For me, the batter scraps were sensational (and free) Well worth a visit.

This is my favourite chippy. The special fish is massive and very tasty.

My son brought me fish n chips home for tea, n wow what treat, this is the best fish n chips I’ve eaten in such a long time. The chips do look burnt but honestly they are amazing, the curry sauce is very tasty . I won’t be going anywhere else in future, only down fall is your not close by but it’s worth the drive for these. Thankyou

Really lovely fish and chips. Great portion size, not greasy. Chips were well done. Fish was beautifully flaky. Prices were brilliant too! Will definitely be back, great job!

Our now go to place for fish n chips Head n shoulders above others around Big fish crispy batter twice fried chips ..so tasty and very good value for money .. Tried the special once ... That is massive ..staff lovely as well .. great find for us

Spot on. Expensive but worth it

Called today after visiting Newmiller Dam. Had read reviews on Facebook and we weren't disappointed! Beautiful flaky fish,freshly cooked. Would highly recommend!!!

There's not much to say other than it's bar far the best and great value. With the fryer owner also doing great stand up.

WOW. These are amazing. Great price and one of the tastiest fish and chips I've ever had. Will definitely call again when I am next in the area.

Twice i have been now and both times chips and fish are overcooked. soon as i got them out of the packet they looked burnt even dogs didn't want them. Not a patch on Blue Marlin On Batley Road.

Amazing fish and chips amazing staff

Amazing fish and great chips, do a banging battered sausage too, friendly staff as always, as a family its out go to chippy!!!!

Haddock special and chips, cooked in 'Reyt stuff'. Tremendous

Our first time here today. Absolutely magnificent 👌🏻

As my old friend Tina said, "Simply the Best" better than all the rest 😋

Heard great things about this chippy so drove over from York to try it today, had to queue for about 10 mins on Saturday lunchtime about 12.45 which is a good sign, ordered fish & chips X2 only £16 very reasonable,.decent portions, the fish was so overcooked it should be called George A green crematorium, the chips weren't too bad but that fish was so overcooked it was tasteless and we threw them both away, we would have taken them back if it wasn't for the queue size so we won't be going back again. Absolutely awful. 👎

The best fish and chips by far. Cooked the old way in beef dripping. Try the rest but try the best. They are by far the best fish and chips I've ever had .

We came here because of rate my takeaway as you may know as the YouTuber but everything was not as good as he described. Will not be going here again. The food was not as tasty as descpripted and was a bit overdone.

Good consistent fish and chips, always a bit of banter with the owner Damien, would recommend.

Just the best , never had Fish and Chips as good for years , we travel from Sheffield so that says it all .

Fish is nice and big or, if you're peckish a special is huge. Traditional selection of chip shop foods.

Superb fish n chips. Very friendly and massive portions

The Special fish is massive! And very tasty 🐳

Very good fish and chips. A very large portion for a good price. And the great atmosphere of an English place is exactly what one expects when entering fish and chips. I recommend.

Bought fish cake and chips and 2 fish, the fish cake of mine was so dry and the batter was very chewy its like the fish cake had been refried. And I do know what that taste like....Also how the owner speaks to his colleagues is outrages, especially when walking off so the whole customer can hear him very belittling. Won't be going back there.

Drove over from Manchester as we heard how good this place was, we were not disappointed! We had Fish, chips, peas, curry sauce, also tried the battered sausage and a fishcake, marvelous! Will definitely go again if we are in the area. Highly recommended👍👍👍

Best fish and chips I've ever had. Fish was very tasty and the batter was lovely. The chips were delicious aswell. Gravy and curry sauce were top notch. Shame it's a 4 hour 30 minutes drive away but next time I'm in the area I'll be sure to pop in for round 2.

Good value for money. We had haddock x 2, chips and fishcake with scraps. Best fishcake I have ever had. The haddock was really tasty and cooked to perfection. Chips were a little dark on the outside and very slightly under done in the middle. Well worth a visit

Great traditional type chippy, Staff were chatty and locals lol, benches outside if you can’t wait to get home , and the fish all I can say is best and thickest fish I have had chips were great well cooked and fluffy if your passing Wakefield stop in you won’t be disappointed and cheap compared to most I know

Enjoyed an amazing order of fish and chips last Saturday! I got to the shop at 1:45 (close at 2) and was told they had closed early because it had been so busy, but when I explained I was in the US they made an exception and I am lucky they did! The fish was cooked to perfection and the chips were dynamite (especially with some scraps on top). Thanks again for a great lunch!

Fantastic fish and chips served by efficient and friendly staff

Absolutely outstanding food!!!!

Opening times 11:00 - 14:00 After travelling from Huddersfield, we were disappointed to be greeted with the shutters down and doors locked at 13:30. Long way to travel for the shop to close early. Won't be making the travel again

Went to this chippie after seeing it on a Facebook review. Wow it did not disappoint, everything cooked fresh. Great value for money , friendly staff, food tasted great ,chips how they should be . Good parking . Will definitely be going again. Highly recommended

Travelled from Bury Lancashire to sample this chippy after seeing it on rate my Takeaway. Wasn't disappointed massive fish cooked in beef dripping has was the chips. Love my beef dripping fish and chips bit rare in Lancashire. So I don't mind travelling, I will return at a later date 10 out of 10

Delicious fish n chips in Wakefield, you have to try the special fish n chips. We are from South Shields and we know good fish n chips and this is definitely as good as anything we get in the north east. Yorkshires finest!

Really lovely fish and chips. Only tried once, but shall definitely be returning.
