High Street Fisheries in Harrogate

I don't know what oil/fat they cook the chips in but they were truly awful.

Lovely family owned business - fish was cooked to order and really tasty. Very polite service. Would recommend and return!

Had fish, chips, curry sauce and peas.. all delicious.. thank you

Enjoyed the fish and chips takeaway on our arrival at Pateley Bridge.

Very good fish and chips, a little slow but cooked to order and worth the wait.

The owners could not have been kinder or more concerned when my son and a friend staggered into their shop freezing cold and wet after a bike ride. They were treated so well. Very grateful for their kindness and practical help.

Went today fish was disgusting chips were not much better some were still raw and others were cooked....have just got a static caravan at Pateley was hoping for a good fish shop but was so disappointed I won't be wasting money at that fish shop again....

Rude service from the two Asians walked in to order 2 fishcakes they replied they take a long time "which means that they don't want to cook it" then got told they were closing so left. Walked past the shop 20 mins later and they were still open and serving. Very poor service would not recommend.

Oh dear. Sooo expensive (£2.60) for small portion of chips that are hard and dry. I don't know how fried chips can be dry... Needs to improve

Excellent fish and chips for me and lovely steak pie, chips and gravy for my husband. Takeaway. Reasonable price. Would use again if in the area.

Simple fish and chip shop. Does what it says on the tin. Food delicious

Even though it was close to closing time, they served us some fantastic fish and chips. The chips were perfectly cooked and the fish was delicious. Honestly, absolutely exquisite and the value for money was unbelievable.

Not sure what they're fried in but the Fish and chips were weirdly crispy - didn't taste of much and portion was modest. Mouth felt very greasy afterwards. Service was 'abrupt'.

Great fish and chips and good portion size. Fish lovely and crispy.

Wouldn’t bother wasting your time with this place, service was terrible matched by the measly portions of bang average chips.

Bought 2 fish and one teacake. The fish was tasteless ( frozen ?) and the bread was not fresh. Had to throw it away. The girl serving was indifferent - no smile, nothing. Would never frequent this place ever - even if I was starving !

Fish v battery and v unfriendly some foreign chap..Wouldn’t go back certainly didn’t amaze me go to the crown Pub/Hotel they do a lovely Fish -He has a good opportunity his location on the high street t.Away fish& Chips but about as friendly as a windsock!!’ Avoid!!!

Thoroughly enjoyed our fish and chips today. All delicious and freshly cooked for us. No complaints. Will visit again (very soon).

Got fish & chips and a barm. Chips were average, fish was disgusting and the barm was stale. Defo wouldn't use again.....

Frozen chips and made bisto in a jar for the gravy. Its a no from me

Came to patleybridge for a walk and noticed the fish n chip shop was open so decided to get some, worst fish n chips I've had, fish was over done to the point of being dry along with the chips being far to over cooked, very disappointed especially for the price, won't be going again.

Excellent the best and good value always hot

Excellent produce, delightful service.

After eating fish and chips for many years in many locations i can Honestly say these were the best i have ever eaten Thanks great food Great service

We have really enjoyed fish and chips here over the last 25 years. I was saddened to see that the owner was selling up. We saw him training the new owners over several weeks. We tried it this year and were very disappointed. Shame.

Lovely fresh chips really hot and a crispy fish with lots of batter but very little fish in the batter, maybe we are just spoiled living at the coast with great chippies.

Visited today. Very nice indeed, thoroughly enjoyed them. Great chips and lovely light crispy batter on fish.

Cod and chips and mushy peas, all freshly cooked, generous portions, served with a smile. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect fish and chips, in the middle of the dales, service was fast and efficient, food was great. We'll done. Can get busy.

Just had excellent f&c this evening. Portion size spot on, well cooked, good batter and good mushy peas. Reasonable price. Would definitely go again. Note their opening times as I didn't realise they close at 7pm some nights.

used to go quite often for very good fish and chips. not anymore since the new owners it is now one of the worst fish and chip shops. fish grey, not fresh, overcooked, chips soggy, hygiene not good. anything good to say sadly NO!

The new owners do not compare to the previous owners when it comes to fish and chips. Greasy poor quality fish and and a small portion (standard haddock and chips) and poor chips (most of which I did not eat). Good service from the young man dealing with the customers, great job!

Greasy fish and black hard chips. Won't be buying again

Was a bit nervous after the last reviews. We had been here before Christmas and it was ace. It was just as good today! Excellent friendly service. Quick, considering the queue and a very reasonable price. The fish and chips tasted great, not overly greasy and the chips weren't soggy. Considering we are not directly next to the sea it was delicious. Thanks for the Friday treat :)

We ordered some cod, pineapple fritters and chips to take away. It was ok, and all freshly cooked whilst we waited - but more like cheap greasy seaside food than good quality fish and chips. The cod was small, but cooked nicely. I’m not sure what was wrong with the chips - they were quite dry, not sure if it’s the cooking oil… fry but greasy. I would have loved to write a great review, and the prices were reasonable… but we wouldn’t bother next time unless the quality improves significantly. Maybe we’re just spoilt at home!

The current owners started off well, but now they have clearly lost the plot with greasy poor quality fish! If you can’t do the job right then please…..clear off!

Absolute mayhem, best stay away. No receipts given and sometimes told payment has not gone through. How can you be sure

The fish what was there was dry it was allbatter and the chips were awful worst chippy I have ever had avoid at all costs

Arrived 10 minutes before closing time and owners were packing up. They kindly took our order and prepared the food. I wished they hadn’t the chips were very crispy and seemed over cooked, and the whole dinner tasted odd. Not sure if the oil was old or something else……….won’t be going back. Wouldn't recommend to eat there.

Ohh my goodness AVOID... AVOID AVOID... absolutely disgusting fish was dry (almost disintegrated) batter was at least 2 days old and the chips had been reheated more times than I care to think about.... took it back to be greated by a rude counter assistant and a "manager/ owner" that could barely speak English.... shocking absolutely disgusting.. we had to almost demand a refund.... AVOID

The best fish and chips we've had in years, still piping hot by the time we got them home. Beautiful batter, lovely white fish and amazing chips.

My brother got food poisoning from the cod 😑

Yes I’m a tourist, and only passing through, so perhaps one experience isn’t enough to review. However, it seemed to me that the owners (new maybe?) were struggling to cope with the Friday tea time foot fall. Hopefully they’ll get a system in place, but...

As all the cafes seemed to be shut yesterday in Pateley Bridge so we opted for fish and chips. What a huge disappointment! The fish was over cooked and the chips were soggy. These were the worst fish and chips we've ever had. Such a shame Patley Bridge is one of our favourite places to visit.

Fish and chips. The fish were small pieces of cod and greasy (all 3 portions). The chips were under cooked by minutes so were also soft. Quite expensive for the size of the portions. I'm not sure if I will be back anytime soon. Very...

Really enjoyed our haddock and chip take out from here. Would definitely return when next visiting the area.

Would just like to say that our choice to have fish & chips from this place was the right choice, would recommend the freshly cooked fish & chips had to wait a few minutes for them to cook it but was very hot food and cooked to perfection. Well done guys great service & worth every penny. Andy

Fantastic fish and chips, superb sausage and chips and the best curry sauce I’ve had in a long time. The chips are the best we’ve had in many years, they are better than the chips at Cromer by a mile. The fish was really tasty...

Best fish and chips and cup of tea I have had for ages. Good price and easy parking behind

So looking forward to our chippy tea after reading the reviews as well. I wanted to ring them instead of reviewing but no number listed. We went early and ordered large fish chips and peas. Fish and peas exc. Chips were so hard my husband left them! Guessing they were pinged from yesterday. So disappointed.

Came into Pateley Bridge to get money out of the cash machine on the high street but the delicious aromas coming out of High Street Fisheries very quickly made our minds up to shelve our meal plan. We bought fish and chips instead and ate...

Some of the best fish and chips I've ever had!

Decent fish and chips but waited 25 minutes as they forgot my order! Not even an apology from the staff.

I have been before and the fish and chips are decent and at a pretty standard price. However tonight I ordered two lots fish and chips, and was told I'd be waiting five minutes. Twenty five minutes later I went in and asked about my...

Had a fish that was quite simply ruined by overcooking meaning that it was dry and didn't flake at all. Shame as we had stopped by specially whilst travelling through

The food is okay, the service bad. No system when it’s busy leaving customers wondering what is happening with their order.

Really nice fish and chips at a reasonable price. We stopped here last night and it was busy which is a good sign! The staff were really helpful and the food was even better. I got the large haddock and chips which was just over £7 and was a good portion size. Would defo return here.

One of the very best Chippies in Yorkshire. ....and they do Spam fritters for the more cosmopolitan clientele. It's immaculately clean and the staff are so polite, helpful and communicative. I prefer my chips slightly well done, hence they don't get 5 stars. More like 4.75. Great food.

Excellent chippy. Scampi was really goods quality, and fish had super crispy batter. Decent chips too.

The fishcake was AMAZING!!! Called in here on a recent trip to Pateley Bridge and we were not left wanting. The fishcake was the best I have had by far...a fish fillet sandwiched between 2 potato scallops. Chips cooked in dripping, just like my Grandmother...

Quick service even on a Friday evening piping hot lovely fish and chips highly recommend

The best fish and chips we had in Yorkshire. Amazing.

Haddock and chips on a Friday evening after a good walk. Excellent fish! Would recommend. Good covid system in place.

Excellent. Will try again when next in the area.

My first time to this establishment since lockdown started last year. New ownership and I see they are not as good. The portions are smaller. The fish was so small I am surprised it was not thrown back in the sea for being underweight. A...

This is the best fish and chips on the planet if you are in patley don't hesitate to go grab a bite you won't be disappointed

I absolutely love it here I go everytime I get the opportunity one of the best fish and chips I have ever been to and the staff are really nice 10 out of 10

We expected great things by the queue up the street. However, whilst the fish itself was well cooked, the batter and chips were dripping with oil and it tasted like they had been fried in beef fat, which for a pescatarian was extremely unpalatable.

Tasty takeaway. Freshly cooked. Order on arrival and waited outside. Called in when order complete. Felt covid safe.

Fabulous fish and chips and lovely service xxx

Fabulous chip shop, everything so fresh, 5 star

Great fish and chip shop located on main shopping street. Good selection and good value. Can get busy!

Excellent fish and chips, the peas were good and the curry sauce was excellent also. Very clean establishment and good anti covid practices.

I came here one very rainy afternoon for some takeaway fish and chips. What a lovely treat it was! Fairly cheap prices with quick service. The chips were really tasty, proper good food. One member of my party enjoyed a burger despite vowing he would...

Great Fish and Chips. Generous portions, chunky chips, good quality fish and lovely batter. Well organised for social distancing

Excellent cooked to order fish and chips and if like us you need somewhere to eat them, there are lots of options within a couple of minutes walk if you head down towards the river. Very friendly staff and an extensive menu.

The takeaway was very well organised to cope with social distancing. We took our fish and chips to the park to eat. Lovely crispy batter surrounding a prime haddock fillet and excellent chips

Excellent fish and chips, recommended.

Tasty fish and chips with Friendly service!

We were really looking forward to our first fish and chips since lockdown began and we were not dissappointed, they were fantastic. Beautifully cooked by very friendly new owners.

Had great fish and chips and was massively impressed with both the food and the efforts made to keep it’s customers safe. These are nice people working hard in incredibly difficult circumstances to provide me and my family with a bit of a treat...thank you. I won’t forget the efforts you’re making and good luck

Haddock and chips ,2x scallops chunky white fish fresh chips tasted perfect.

We have, in the past, made our way over to Pateley Bridge for the excellent fish & chips on a regular basis. Unfortunately, I can say that the standard has deteriorated since the previous owners left. Gone is the white, meaty haddock with good crispy batter, replaced by what I can only say, was grey fish.. not good.The chips were quite soggy too.Can only vote with our feet and won’t be frequenting High Street Fisheries again!

Never going back again it is the first time I’ve been since the new Chinese owners have owned it I went in for fish and chips four times x2 mushy peas and x1 curry sauce . They didn’t have no curry sauce left and the fish were like fish fingers for £31.60 u want more than a fish finger

Tonight we visited for fish n chips n two childrens meals , we ordered the chicken bites once we first went in, stood waiting for 20 minutes to then get to the front of the que to be told we would have to wait even longer as they hadnt even put in the fryer what we had ordered! Very disappointed tonight to return home and find out that one of the orders was wrong ! And the fish and chips very greasy

Good price, lovely food and the right portion sizes

Excellent fish and chips. Chips and the batter isn't soggy, good stuff! Good flavour too - honestly in my top 3 fish and chips I've eaten in England.

We were staying in Pateley Bridge and decided to have fish & chips for tea they were a real treat both me & hubby had haddock and chips for only £5.50 each fish and chips cooked to perfection, will go back before we return home.

Great fish & chips cooked to order not kept all day delish washed down with a nice glass 👍

Definitely one of the best fish and chip shops in the area. Better than any fish shop in Harrogate so worth a drive.

The fish cakes weren't as expected - more like battered fish with a bit of potato around it but the chips were gorgeous!

One visit for fish and chips after a day out has put this chippy firmly into our top 5 places! The fish was succulent with lovely batter and the chips were tasty and nicely squarely cut (not that I am OCD!!!) but I do love a proper cut chip, golden, crisp on the outside and fluffy inside. Excellent and I will make sure I divert to it next time we are in that area!! I can't answer any of the other questions as I stayed in the car while husband went to get served.

We went on Saturday and food was brilliant could not fault it and we really enjoyed it but went tonight and the chips were very disappointing half undercooked and half overcooked and the mushy peas were too runny. Fish was okay, but not as good as Saturday night and we were disappointed.

On a day trip, we did not expect to find a traditional fish shop in Pateley Bridge, good selection, well displayed and we enjoyed our fish later that day.

Possibly the best fish and chips for miles around. Never disappointed.

It was just ok... 2 tail ends put together as 1 fish...not a fan.

Excellent quality fish and chips. Batter light and crispy. Good portions without being too bit. Good mushy peas. Very busy little shop. Food fresh. Worth a visit.

Really tasty fish and chips, done in the proper old style, so rare to find these days. I had the fish cake and it was a proper fish cake: Fish, in between two layers of potato, and battered. Super!

Called to pick some fish and chips for tea I as absolutely amazed at the quality and quantity of fish and chips. The quality was superb as well as cooked. Cannot get better in the area bar none. Staff always very pleasant and efficient Cannot imptove on what I have said
