JC's Restaurant in East Riding of Yorkshire

Waited 35 minutes for fish chips twice and a kids fish and chips, Chips and peas were cold, Fish was actually very good, the pot of tea which had arrived just after ordering was long gone when the food arrived, No apology for the delay, in fact none of the staff talk they just take your order, No one came to ask how the food was, The place really does have a strange atmosphere, with odd signs such as only 12 year old's or under can have a kids meal. Went to pay the bill , was told the price and my card was processed, that was it. I mentioned we'd been waiting 35 minutes and the chips were cold, "Oh I'll tell the kitchen" Won't be returning and given the amount of competition nearby you'd think they'd be trying harder, Avoid.

Excellent food and value; fish and chips spot on. Occasionally, my dad has their steak and ale pie which is always great. We live in Doncaster and when we visit we always come here. Great job and keep up the amazing work to all your team; I always leave tip in thanks. Paul.

Food was very standard and menu very limited The soft drinks where definitely a cheap watered down version Portions for the price seemed very small

Amazing food with an equally amazing view. £50 for a family of 4 including drinks, definitely value for money. Will definitely go back.

Was looking for a fish and chip restraunt to sit and enjoy them in, looked on the menu outside and found that they did a small fish and chips (4-6 oz), this seemed to be the only place that did this. I went in and they took me over to sit in the window overlooking the harbour and a friendly waitress came and took my order. The fish and chips were freshly cooked, they came in about 15 mins. The fish was lovely skinned and boned and white and very tasty, there was a nice amount of chips as well - the meal was not greasy - would highly recommend and not expensive.

Called in today for lunch with my wife, we both had the steak pie, which was fantastic, big chunks of meat and gravy, just as advertised. Would highly recommend it to anyone...

Well over priced for for what we got £40.50 for fish chips twice and two kids meals. A long wait for the food when you have kids waiting no colouring crayons like advertised. A little greasy not a great deal of food. Kids meals not to bad

Fab place to eat as a family, steak pie is really good. Good value for money. Nice and clean, service is friendly. We always pay a visit when we are in the area.

Food was good once we received it!!!! The staff got our order wrong. We ordered for two. We received two drinks, two lots of bread and butter. One fish and chips. We highlighted this oversight and the young lady who delivered our short order told us the second fish and chips was imminent. We watched multiple people being served their meals, but no sign of our order. I approached the staff and asked politely where the second meal was? We were told it was on it's way. By this time the first plate of food is getting cold... I requested the waitress to take this plate of food away so that we could eat together as would be normal. When we did receive the second meal and the original first meal back. I asked why was one meal hot and the original only warm. I now asked for the first meal and the second meal to be taken away so that we could actually have two meals served together... That were hot.... There was no real apology for this poor service. Eventually after an hour of waiting we received two meals together... Not a lot to ask for??? The fish and chips were good. The service was abismal.... When I went to pay, I was offered no apology or discount for the errors and poor service. I asked for a discount and eventually after being made to wait for approximately 10 minutes. Permission for a discount had to be received from the owner/manager. We received 10%. This was not a good experience. We shall not be using this establishment again.... Food good.... Service abismal.... Think twice about having a sit down ordeal in this fish and chip café.

What can I say, convenient for the town centre. Value for money but that's maybe because they are not Yorkshire size fish portions. Very much basic cafe but ok.

We were looking for a place to eat, and this caught my grandads eye because of their skinless & boneless fish and chips. I’m glad we ate here because the food was all fresh & cooked properly, plus it all tasted amazing. Prices were fairly reasonable too considering it’s near the sea front.

Excellent haddock and chips, clean surroundings and views over the harbour . friendly, attentive staff. Would definitely use again

Lovely meal as usual. Was very busy as it was Easter Sunday. Great service. All staff rushed of their feet but all great as usual

Not much you can say other than it’s just a decent honest seaside restaurant selling good honest food at a decent price. Can’t go wrong with the good old Fish and Chips at this place. 3 of our party had F&C and they said they were good. I know they have been critical in the past. Although I didn’t have it , the curry sauce was very good as well. I had the homemade Steak pie, which came with chips and garden peas , should have asked for mushy peas. The pie was decent with large chunks of steak.

We called into Bridlington for some food after visiting the fantastic Bridlington Animal Park. We happened to park outside JCs and popped in. The staff were polite and quickly got us seated. We asked to move nearer the windows looking over the harbour and they happily reseated us. Our order was taken and the staff were friendly and professional. Our food arrived and the kids meals were well sized and fairly priced. I had a large fish well cooked and fresh tasting. Chips were fluffy and tasty. Mushy peas were good. It would have been better with a slice of lemon given we were sat inside but would happily eat here again. Clean, comfortable and tasty food.

Had a day in Bridlington. Fancied Fish & Chips but inside not out as cold. Seemed to remember I had been to JC's before. Shown to table by friendly staff, left to study menu (not Rushed). Chose small Fish & Chips, Garden Peas, and a pot of tea for one. Only waited a matter of 10 minutes at most and given lovely tasting freshly prepared Fish and crispy Chips. Also Pot of tea which made just over 2 cups. I believe it was YORKSHIRE TEA (brilliant!). Best Fish, Chips and Peas I have had since I cannot remember. Just £10. Maybe dearer in summer season but if same Quality I THOROUGHLY RECOMMEND . Imagine you would struggle to get in in high season, But try. Ignore Victor& Victoria Meldrew type reviews. Give this place a ry.

Looking for a light fish and chip meal and a hot cup of tea to eat in as it was cold out. Came across JC’s thought we’d give it a try. Though my Husband walked past the sign saying wait to be seated and sat down at a table with a sea view they were still polite and attentive 😂. We ordered our fish and chips and tea and didn’t have to wait long. It was great chips crisp outside an fluffy inside, beautiful flaky white fish and crispy batter. The young waitress was attentive but not pushy and very helpful. Customer toilets were clean and serviceable in fact the whole place was clean and airy with great views. Thanks JC’s I will certainly be visiting you again for lunch when I’m next in Bridlington.

Nagarsu.S was a very good waiter . Served very good french fries and great behavior. Sincere and good behavioral. Im very happy with his service

This wasn’t a great chippy experience. My scampi was nothing better than the frozen stuff you can cook at home, and the chips lacked both colour and taste. Undercooked, I’d say. My friend didn’t seem enamoured by his fish and chip meal, either. I wish we’d just got takeaway somewhere else.

We recently visited JC’s for lunch and it did not disappoint! Fantastic food, gorgeous fish and the chips were cooked to perfection. Staff were attentive, welcoming and smiley. Spotlessly clean. Could not fault it. Will defo be back.

Warm and friendly welcome. Attentive staff. Attractive prices. Pleasant and clean room with sea view. But if you're looking for crispy battered fish with tasty chips we were extremely disappointed. Fish both Haddock and Cod were lacking in crispy batter. Both were greasy. Chips were dry and bland in colour and unappetising. Very disappointing. Neither of us felt well within a few hrs. A total waste of £22

Food was so poor couldn’t stomach it. Greasy, flavourless and mushy. The staff were kids and didn’t seem to know what they were doing. We didn’t com here expecting French Cuisine but we’re looking for seaside fish and chips. Di’dnt cut it for me disappointed

Came the other day as we was staying in Scarborough for the week with family and fancied a day in Bridlington. This was the first cafe we came across that looked reasonably priced. Wish we didn’t bother, much better places in Scarborough. Food was mediocre. Staff was unpleasant. Me and the wife have a sweet tooth and was wanting to order a dessert. Called over the young small girl and she huffed at me, she made it clear customers wanting serving is an inconvenience for her. Won’t be returning to this establishment.

Went at 5.45 but you could tell staff didn't want us there must be nearly closing time no smile or friendly atmosphere just plonked food down on table and left. Food OK but nothing special wont be going BACK again .

Lovely warm welcome into a clean establishment, the toilets were immaculate The young ladies serving were fast, efficient and friendly. Food came out quickly, it was hot and tasted lovely. Prices were very cheap for a sit down and eat place. There are fish and chip shops near me that charge nearly as much for takeaway. Well worth a visit.

Out for a family fish and chips, food was good but service sadly was lacking. Waitress, despite the restaurant not being busy on a Wednesday afternoon, looked like she didn't want to be there. She noticeably sighed when we arrived and we felt uncomfortable ordering or asking for service.

Great fish and chips and staff was really friendly and good with the kids. Felt really welcome and the view of the sea was lovely. Definitely will recommend and be back on our next visit to the sea side.

Found this place by accident and so glad we did. Friendly attentive staff who couldn't do enough for us. I told them I'd be back and hopefully that will be soon. Oh yeah food was out of this world

The waitress who served us was very rude and lacking customer service skills. We asked for a table with chairs instead of a bench and she huffed and puffed . We ordered food and when my fish n Chips was brought to me I asked if I could have some ketchup and she abruptly replied that I had to wait until my family members had got their food first . On a positive, we enjoyed our food

Food presented well , didn't have a long wait but was fairly quiet ,anyway , both ordered cod and chips , chips were quite tasty but the cod was tasteless and very watery between meat and batter almost as if frozen , poor choice for fish and chips at the coast

Excellent service and wonderful fish and chips. Great portions and well cooked. Thoroughly recommend

Excellent fish and chips, with appropriate Childrens options and sides to add to your meal. Staff were friendly and attentive. Overall a great place to visit for families who want to sit inside to have some fish and chips!

Service was fine, but the food did not live up to expectations. Expecting great fish and chips in a seaside resort but was provided with a very thin piece of cod in greasy tasteless batter and anaemic chips. Will not return next time we are...

Called in here today for OAP special . Fish Chips tea and bread and butter £7.50. Fantastic value and excellent fish and chips really tasty fish and well cooked . Really friendly staff. Would highly recommend

Enjoyed a small fish and chip lunch , just enough and really nice , the batter was crispy, served by a very pleasant and helpful young lady , will definitely be visiting again

If you want fish and chips go to a proper chippy it’d a cafe that does other things which are probably much better than the fish and chips - really disappointed with the quality the cod and chips looked pale and very tasteless - had...

Had a lovely meal here, fish and chips followed by carrot cake. The price was reasonable and the staff were lovely. Will come here again next time we are in Bridlington.

Ordered fish and chips (from a fish and chip restaurant) sat and waited for 30 mins, was repeatedly lied to by the young boy in charge whilst others around us who arrived after us got theirs in the end got our money back and left,...

Loved the haddock and chips from here with mushy peas and bread and butter so quick serving and the portions were good staff so friendly and courteous I will honestly go back.

Did so wanted to enjoy the fish and chips. They did change the meal when I pointed out that the chips where hard. The new meal was not much better, chips still hard and enimic. Nice place but not cheep

JC's stayed open especially to accommodate our group of 15. The service was exceptional - a fantastic welcome and great attention paid to dietary and other needs. The fish and chips, and the specially provided poached fish, were also absolutely spot on. I would definitely...

I came in with a large group of friends and we were warmly welcomed and seated together. The service was very efficient, attentive and speedy and the food was lovely. Highly recommended.

17 of us arrived for our prearranged chippy tea at 4pm to find tables set and staff waiting to welcome and serve us. Fish and chips were exceptional, Vicki and staff were amazing. Oh, and we discovered they normally shut at 4pm on Tuesdays but...

Popped in spur of the moment whilst visiting Bridlington. Had haddock and chips, battered sausage and chips and curry sauce. Batter on top of the fish was lovely and crispy and light, but they had not allowed the fish or sausage to drain before putting...

Another fantastic fish & chips lunch. Good quality food and value for money, clean restaurant with friendly staff. Love the new decor. Everything was top-notch.

Hope OK put this review on here. It's not about the food, but a lovely young lady who helped us today. An older gentleman fell of his scooter outside this restaurant, we were checking he was OK and lifting him, with help. When this young...

Went with my grandparents and partner yesterday the staff were so helpful and kind. We made it just in time before it closed. The only downside was the price, drinks are a bit pricey but great value for food.

Had fish chips & mushy peas, fish was greasy and chips not cooked enough as hard couldn’t eat them. Told the girl and she just said I’ll pass it on

Once again lunch at JC's exceeded expectations. Large portions of well cooked fish & chips in very clean and pleasant surroundings with lovely staff. I would say its the best fish & chips restaurant in Bridlington.

We need somewhere with big tables to accommodate the family and as fish & chip places tend to be smaller and can be cramped we chose here purely on table size! The fish came and thy were monsters!! Massive and cooked to perfection. The price...

Food was nice served fast piping hot and reasonably priced. Staff were friendly and efficent. I highly recommend the homemade the steak pie.

We visited this restaurant twice during our stay in Bridlington. The place is lovely and clean with plenty of seating and the food is first class. We were served by Emily on the first night then Harrison on the second night, both were great and...

Cracking wrinklie deal with a decent brew included! Have to say that I didn't see JC, but I'm sure he was there in spirit! 😂😂

Nice food, pleasant staff, well situated in Bridlington, only downside I found was they choose to use cheap condiments sachets but not a deal breaker.

Great food, warm and friendly, fast service. Very clean and felt safe.would defo go again. Great potion sizes.

The whole family enjoyed a light lunch, quick and attentive service, good Covid measures and evident cleaning taking place. Food arrived as ordered and we didn’t have to wait long, thank you

Fantastic value for families the small portion of fish and chips was more than enough for me. Not the best fish and chips I've had but for the price can't be beaten super friendly staff

Came here on a Tuesday afternoon during the eat out to help out as it was advertised they were participating however we were told this was only between 12 and 2pm! Didn’t realize the government were allowing time frames ???? Even though not 50% off we still stayed and the fish and chips were excellent, the young waitress that served us was very polite and helpful

Popped in for lunch, first outing since everything re opened. Place was spotless and plenty of space for pushchairs. Friendly staff and tasty food 10/10 :-)

What a great place to find friendly very nice food I had cod one day and cottage pie the next great warm welcome from there staff just brilliant service we was in a family of 6 just a superb place nice and clean

We have been to JC's a few times with it being my daughters choice for birthday meals. This wasnt her birthday choice but a family choice for our first holiday after lockdown. We are so glad we went!I was a little apprehensive with still having the fear or covid looming over us, however when walking in to the restaurant, you could immediatly tell that the safety of staff and customers was a priority, the place was spotless and everyone was quick to clean anything and everything! this helped me relax quickly and was really able to enjoy our first family meal out!The food was gorgeous as usual and my picky eaters cleared their plates (pudding too, obviously)The staff where welcoming and although they were on the ball with cleaning, it didn't make you feel awkward or in the way at any point. We will be returning soon!!

Visited today for the first time and it most certainly won't be the last. We were impressed with the cleanliness of the premises and smartness of the staff. We were served by Emily, a very pleasant and efficient waitress, a credit to the Diner. Fish chips and mushy peas which came with lemon wedge and sachets of salt Vinegar and tartar sauce. The portions were huge, I couldn't eat all mine which was a shame because they were so tasty. A teapot for one and a good sized black coffee added to the enjoyment. Thank you for a really good meal in pleasant surroundings.

Called in here for fish and chips, looked great but few things made me realise that bot all is ok..firstly the glasses were not clean, i was given a beer in a dirty glass, and the replacement glass was equally dirty, secindky the fish and chips were grim, greasy batter and fish was not good, the oil smelled like it needed replacing, cheap but not cheerful,

Very clean and tidy restaurant. The young girl serving was really polite and smiley. The food came and the cod was too big for the plate!!! Really lovely food. Good value for money and they serve beer!! 10/10 from us!! ✅

We ate here for lunch one day this week. It was quiet, bearing in mind it is November.Nice clean place inside. Good size portions of fish and chips. The steak pie was very tasty, and packed with quality meat and gravy. I'm not sure how many fish and chip shops actually cook fresh fish nowadays or is it all frozen? Anyway, the fish here was lightly battered and a very white, good size fillet.Would recommend.

This place is great for fish and chips. My wife had the pensioners portion including bread and a cup of tea. A smaller portion but great value for money. I had the haddock which was perfectly cooked. A large portion and so tasty.We will be back next time we are in Bridlington.

Been here a couple of times the trouble is parking nearby sometimes you have to be miles away and have to walk. The food is good and I enjoy the large haddock but it is a bit too big for me to eat the chips as well. I have been in when it it is heaving and also when eaters are a bit sparse but the service and food does not change. It is a pity that it seems to close for the winter and closes early in the weeks before. All in all though a good experience

We will always try to visit here if we're in Bridlington. Visited today with a two year old toddler, restaurant lovely and clean and good changing facilities. The food is gorgeous, we had steak pies and a child's carvery. The quality and quantity of the steak in the pie was amazing! Plenty of choice of vegetables and meat for the carvery, it was nice to find a place where the veg has a little bit of softness to it and isn't rock hard. The staff were all lovely and friendly, we will 100% be going back when we come to Bridlington again next year :)

Daily special, haddock and chips £5.95, dearer than next door but so much worth it! Never seen batter so tasty without being heavy, husband normally so picky with chips but not 1 was left! Will visit again

this is the second reveiw because the first was deleted ,I ate with my family had eaten here before,I found to my shock and horror to find a stone from the fish in my mouth,I called the waitress and dropped it in her hand, to cut a long story short of she said I said I was offered another meal which she brought quickly no apologies just that the chef was more bothered about the costs to them with the suppliers,I did not ask nor was offered a reduced bill, by the way 60 quid,but the fact to me which is a major concern is my kids and grandchild could have choked on the stone 20mm x 20 mm but because of my wife I did not kick off this is how you treat your customers? shame on you

Great fish &chips didn't wait that long for the food to arrive . Will definitely be going back to try the carvery. Friendly staff who are very helpful

This little gem of a place has a super variety of food from carvery to traditional fish and chips and lots more in between. I would recommend the lasagne for those who like something other than traditional sea side food.. The service was excellent, the staff were very friendly, smiling and efficient. The place is spotlessly clean and the prices are great value for money. It's definitely my go to place to eat whenever I'm in Bridlington.

Great restaurant if you like large portions of good quality fish and chips. If you like really large portions then the large 32oz fish and chip dinner will certainly fill you. Great location too being only just off the harbour front. Good quality sesting and very pleasant atmosphere. Didn't have to wait too long to be served and very reasonably priced especially given the portion sizes.

We chose to eat here as they had seating outside and we had our dog with us. The table was very wobbley which made us feel uncomfortable. I went in and ordered fish and chips. After 20 minutes of waiting I went in to see if they had forgotten us, a young girl told me that we hadn't been forgotten it was because there was so many people had ordered before us. As I looked around the restaurant there was only about 7 tables with people eating. I went and sat back outside. Meanwhile another family had been eating at the other table outside but had been gone a good 10 minutes when 2 girls came out to empty the table. One of the staff knocked a glass over and the remains of the pop fell over the table and onto one of the chairs, they didn't bother to wipe it up. Another 10 minutes went by, I went in to ask for my money back as we was running out of time, the girl told me that they was just plating our food up. When it came it wasn't even fresh, the fish was dried out on the ends and wasn't even hot. I probably wouldn't have minded the wait or the price tag had it have been fresh but it wasn't. It was very disappointing, I won't be going again nor would I recommend it.

Waited 20 mins for our order to be taken, staff were rude and need a lesson in manners, not one please or Thank you. After another 45 mins and 2 very hungry children getting fractious I had to enquire where our food was. When it arrived the food was good and hot the only saving grace!!

Went at lunchtime midweek and this place advertised over 60s special fish and chips, so in we went and were greeted by a very cheerful young waitress who showed us to a table. We both ordered fish and chips, it came with a smashing pot of tea and bread and butter. Good size haddock and great chips. Excellent.

We went here for the carvery, because it looked really nice in the window, but we were put off immediately upon entering, by the extremely rude and unpleasant young waitress. She was, abrupt, spoke to us as if we were a complete inconvenience and said very curtly there were no tables available, although we could see four empty! She didn't even offer us an alternative, for eg, try later, or take a seat and wait a while. Needles to say, we left. Staff need manners and training in people skills. Dire.

Popped in as the food looked great through the window, was glad we did. It was very busy but worth it, the carvery was really good, the meat was tender and a good choice of 3 different meats, plenty of different veg. You don't have to have the carvery as there is a menu with a good selection of other dishes. Reasonably priced for a good sized portion. Staff where really nice and polite, we had a really nice time.

Me and son went for a tea time meal. Quite busy maybe seem a little understaffed think there was one table waiting to order desserts. Food was very nice hot and haddock was lovely. Had one beer which usual price. Overall very good experience
