North Bay Fisheries Scarborough in Scarborough

Been visiting here atleast once a month for years but the latest visit left us very disappointed. Usually we order 3 regular fish and chips but due to the menu board saying only small and jumbo fish available i ordered 3 small, only to notice just after ordering it states in very small writing 'regular when available' so i asked if they had regular and could i change my order, they had literally only managed to serve the person behind me it was that quick. The request was passed on to the guy frying and wow to say he didn't seem pleased would be an understatement, because he had already put the small fish in the fryer? Awkward. Either you can change the order or not no need to act like i was trying to con the place. Thankfully the girl who was serving me said she could alter the order as people came in and ordered small fish and asked me to give it a minute or two. A few minutes passed and she called me over and asked for a further £13? I asked why is it that much for 3 regular over 3 small fish and she said they are jumbo? I said i asked for regular and she said regular are jumbo? I said i didn't want 3 jumbo as we have had jumbo previously and they are usually very big? So i said I'd take 2 jumbo as we could just share the fish out. All good until we came to share out the fish, we have been to this fish ship many times and i can confidently say the fish where no bigger than the usual regular (one maybe smaller) and no way jumbo! I understand people can have off days and i also understand prices everywhere have gone up but selling regular fish as jumbo resulting in 2 normal portions of fish and chips for £30 is way overpriced. Servers tried their best though. Such a shame.

Very decent fish and chip shop. The chips are very very good and the fish is O-K. The reason I didn’t even rate service or atmosphere is cause I got it delivered by one of my relatives. Overall I give it a 3.3 stars 🥋

There's fish and chips and then there's North Bay Fisheries fish and chips. Enough said.

Fantastic fish and chips and the homemade fishcake and mushy peas were delicious. Everyone serving was so friendly.

Gone so far downhill it'll very shortly be in the sea

Definitely worth a visit. The queue wasn't too bad and moved quickly and the food is worth waiting for. Staff all lovely, batter delicious as are the chips. We will be back on our next visit thanks 😊

The best fish and chips I had in UK. Just brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. Came from London to have it again😅

Great fish and chips, always seems busy so they must be doing something right

Take away fish n chips at its finest... top draw

By far the best fish and chips in the UK. Run by locals for locals

Let me start by saying this is my favourite fish and chip shop in Scarborough. The fact that there is always a queue substantiates my opinion. For a birthday party we ordered a large number of fish and chip suppers for the guests. North bay met our food and time requirements fully, not a single complaint from 120 guests, well done ladies and gents your efforts were really appreciated.

The best fish and chips in Scarborough. Visited twice during a 3 night break we enjoyed it that much! My son now loves scraps but we can't get them at home.

Para un chippy costero servido pescado viejo. Lo que me atrajo es que dicen que está premiando a chippy ganador. Esto no fue así. Debo confiar en los turistas que no les dan repetir negocio ya que no volvería

Our new favourite Chippy in Scarborough, 5 mins walk from Peashome Park....

En el camino a este lugar nos dijeron que era el mejor de Scarborough, bueno, no nos decepcionaron. Todo estaba cocinado a la orden y era absolutamente perfecto. Tenía eglefino regular, papas fritas, guisantes y ‘chatarras’. Estaban deliciosos. No es de extrañar que este lugar es galardonado y viene muy recomendado por los lugareños y visitantes por igual.

¿Qué personifica la costa británica más que comer pescado con papas fritas mientras está sentado en un banco? Después de unas cucharadas en el maravilloso pub en la parte superior del barranco, nos dirigimos al chippy. Cada uno tiene una caja que estaba llena de perfección. Bacalao con patatas fritas - probablemente en el extremo superior del rango de precios para una comida para llevar en nuestra experiencia, pero por lo que vale la pena el dinero. En marcha.

Never had bad fish and chips here, what else to add? Recommended 👍

La mejor tienda de pescado en scarboro y el Reino Unido el curry es un gran servicio es rápido, siempre hay un montón en usted no puede vencerlos el personal es muy educado

Best fish and chips I have had in years

Expensive no parking chips rubbish

One of fav fish and chips in Scarborough

These are the best 👌 fish 🐟 and chips 🍟 we have tasted large cod was fantastic lovely staff can't wait to come back to Scarborough for more exceptional Brian and Jacqui

Fantastic service and the best fish and chips by far.

Fantastic food as always. Travel from West Yorkshire just for fish and chips from here

Consistently the best fish and chips for 5 years tasting in Scarborough, other UK cities, Southern Europe, and Africa as a very critical time served head chef (2years) and general hospitality manager with 25 years experience. Well done guys, you certainly deserve this review for serving the nations favorite far above the average. Reasonably priced at £12 for 2 medium hadocks and chips makes it an absolute treat with the option of enjoying it in the beautiful Peasholm park just across to road for a peaceful picnic.

We visited here at the beginning of the week and all had chips, peas and fish scraps with curry. The food was delicious and we'd definitely recommend adding the fish scraps to your meal. They were very busy but very organised.

Never being to this fish shop before, we both ordered medium cod and chips, was so tasty, cooked to perfection, could not eat it all, should of got the small portion, will definitely use this fish shop again when we visit Scarborough.

Este fue realmente el mejor pescado y patatas fritas que hemos tenido. Papas fritas y caliente. El pescado era precioso. Los niños goujons eran masivos y de gran valor. Más agradable que cualquiera de los otros en la zona.

Food was nice but wasn't blown away by it.

In Scarborough on holiday so popped in after reading the reviews and wasn’t disappointed,it was busy so had a wait but it was worth it,had the medium haddock and it was excellent,and I must mention the counter staff,all very friendly and cheerful,well worth a visit

Prices are very reasonable. Service is very good and the food is fantastic. It was our first experience at the Fishery today and we were NOT disappointed.

THE place for takeaway Fish and Chips in Scarborough. There is always a bit of a wait as it’s so popular but well worth it. The haddock is fresh and very tasty, chips are crisp and well made. Excellent

Fantastic fish and chips , must remember next time to get a small fish or share one between us, didn't manage to eat it all

one of the best fishnchips restaurant in the entire uk😌

Great fish and chips, well worth the wait. We both had a small haddock and chips with curry sauce and can't fault a thing. Large portions in each serving. You queue to order and then queue for your food. But the staff have it down to a fine art. Do yourself a favour and get the scraps as well.

Best Chippy in The UK 🇬🇧 I always come from Lincolnshire for your Homemade fishcakes even in Covid 19 lock down

We usually call here in the evenings and take our food into the park across to eat them, whatever you choose it's always delicious, whether it's fish and chips or my favourite chips and peas, it's all freshly made, you go in and order and they give you a ticket with a number on then they call you in when your order is ready, usually about 10 mins depending on how busy they are.

One of the best in Scarborough. A little towards the expensive side though. No space to dine in.

If you need the more substantial wooden fork remember to take 10p in cash for each fork, because if you haven't got cash and need to use card/contact less it will cost you £2 !!! With the price of fish & chips these days you would think they would give them to anyone requiring a more substantial fork. !!!

Picked up fish and chips for lunch on Sunday. Very efficient ticketing system so waited less than 10mins for our order despite queue. Lady on the till & serving worked like lightning to take and dish up orders! Huge portions, food was piping hot, battered fish contained lots of fish inside the batter, and was good quality & very tasty fish. Would recommend to friends and visit again.

Went on a concert night. Order first the queue. Brilliant idea. Well explained too. Food... fish and chips was gorgeous and dare I say best in scarbados! Oh and cash is king.. we got discount for paying in cash!

Great Fish & chips, reasonably priced, very friendly staff.

I love the fish and chips here I always go here for the cod and chips.

Second time having fish and chips from here and absolutely outstanding quality both times, can't get any more fresh and tasty! The volume of customers speak for itself! Just a shame they had ran out of mushy peas so I had curry sauce instead which was delicious.

The best fish and chips I've had in Scarborough. Beautiful, flakey fish, crispy batter, solid thick chips with incredible mushy peas. Great portion size

This was the best fish and chip shop in Scarborough and have purchased food here many times. It seemed to be closed the last few times been in Scarborough but happy to see it open last Sunday lunch time. The staff are very efficient and the shop is clean. Purchased haddock and chips as usual. It was OK but not of the quality it was previously. The batter on the fish was over cooked and a little greasy. The chips were very nice. Disappointing.

Very good service and value. Good quality fish and chips. Scraps are great.

Delicious! Huge portion sizes well worth the money

Sadly not been as yet to Scarborough this year but this will be my port of call - great fish and chips

Asked for lightly batted fish, when I got home to find it had more batter then fish To say the least,I won’t be returning and yes I’m local Will stick to the best Chippy in Scarborough Which is the Croft by fare

Agrip the teeth of a mighty gale; camping at the Scalby club site. What better fuel for the coming night of peg-pulling tempests? Wonderful cod, chips and mushy peas. Haddock and chicken nuggets went down a treat with the kids, too. Excellent work!

Great take away fish and chips!

Had very high hopes for this place but wasnt as good as expected. The chips tasted frozen pre made and the fish was ok. Also the portion sizes of the chips wasnt great either. Its ok but not a patch on the Anchor.

Unfortunately, the greasiness of this meal did not sit well with me and caused some discomfort. However, if you have a strong stomach, I highly recommend it as your first fish and chips experience in Scarborough. The fish is fresh, seasoned, and has a unique flavor that sets it apart from other establishments.

Take away only, large portions cooked fresh limited hrs, advise sharing as large fish and plenty of chips, in takeaway box, good prices if weather nice can sit in Peasholm Park across the road

Beautiful meal and I really enjoyed the fish and chips. Best in town, thank you to the team that helped. I will definitely be back when I come back to Scarborough

Unfortunately, the day after our visit, we encountered an issue with our stomachs. It is uncertain whether this was due to the oil used to fry the fish or simply our sensitive digestive systems.

Had a medium fish chips and peas which was delicious and crispy and more than enough. Staff were great too very welcoming Five stars all round !

Best fish and chips I've had in a long time. Crispy and light fish batter, and the chips were just right. The service was excellent. We had a small problem with our order and the staff was very prompt and efficient to fix it. Definitely recommend it and will definitely come back next time we're in Scarborough!

We stayed in the Park View B&B and we were told that the chippy across the road was highly recommended. Well it was 1 of the best fish and chips we've tasted in a long while. Staff were polite and the portions were absolutely amazing and priced very reasonable for a decent portion. We would definitely recommend to anyone who is visiting Scarborough. We will definitely be back for our favourite fish and chips soon 😋

I just stopped by for a cheeky fish butty, what a delicious piece of haddock (the ‘small’ serving yet twice the size of the bread cake and just as thick) beautifully cooked in light crispy batter. We are so lucky to have a ‘chippy’ of this quality so close to home.

Always get the order right and cooked fresh! 🙌🏻

I was told this was the best place for fish and chips in Scarborough and I agree! Beautiful, fresh fish, fluffy chips and scraps!!! Yum 😋

As we had been sitting in the park across the road for a couple of hours, we decided we wanted something to eat, so we went to this chip shop for our tea. I had Cod and chips and my wife had chips and curry sauce, both of which were delicious, so the day after we went back again.

In 6 visits to Scarborough, sampling fish & chips from various places, North Bay Fisheries is by far and away the best, no question! Meaty fish with a spot on batter (not greasy!), fantastic chips and the mushy peas and curry sauce were sublime!! Great friendly service too. Beyond highly recommended! Matt (Leicester)

Best Fish and Chips I've ever had in my life! Had the Cod, Regular Chips, a Bread Bun, Curry Sauce and the Mushy Peas 💖 Great service and friendly staff and will definitely come back again next time I visit Scarborough 🥰

Absolutely stunning food ordered a medium haddock which was cooked to perfection with sweet flakes of white meat. Also had a home made fish cake which was equally as exceptional full of white fish. Can’t fault it .

Awesome fish n chips. Great quality cooked to order.

Best fish and chips in Scarborough. The only problem is that because they are so good there is usually a queue!!!!

Amazing fish and chips, top quality, would highly recommend. The 4 star service is because I wasn't offered a bag to carry my 2 portions of fish chips and gravy, therefore it was awkward balancing the gravy on the boxes while walking back to the car. Felt like a carrier of some description should at least be offered.

Amazing chips, best place in town

Friendly staff, perfectly cooked fish and chips, loyalty card offered. Food always cooked fresh, and is outstandingly clean.

Best fish and chips I've had in many a year. Highly recommended

Lovely fish and chip shop. Excellent. Could do with sitting outside. Maybe they do in summer. Would definitely go again

The best fish n chips in Scarborough lovely white flaky fish in light crispy batter not greasy and cooked to order. Great service and spotless. Chips perfect and perfect mushy peas. Everything good.

Take away fish and chips. They were delicious in every way. The fish was very fresh, lovely batter, cooked to perfection

Found this chip shop by accident as visiting Had fish chips and peas absolutely beautiful massive fish gorgeous batter crispy chips not greasy Immaculate chip shop Friendly staff Will definitely go back on return visits

The best fish and chip shop around. Having used Yorkshire for our family trips for the last 10 years I can safely say this is and always has been the best fish and chips we have had. We ordered for 10, everything was cooked fresh there and then and we didn’t wait long at all. The batter is very thin and the quality of the fish is high!

Sadly the food is not as good as last year. We visited scarborough last year & stayed 5 mins walk. Food was fantastic then. This year we stayed the other side of town & drove over but did not enjoy the food. Not saying theres anything wrong with the food, just didnt enjoy it.

Just the best Fish & Chips - huge portions cooked to perfection . Premises clean & the staff super friendly .

Great chips as always, one of the best in the area.

Brilliant fish and chips tasty delicious and the bits yummy.

Lovely staff, great food freshly cooked. If I could give 10 stars I would

You know it's good when the locals are queuing when opening. Delicious

It's been a long time since i've had great F&C and proper mushy peas. Cooked in beef dripping you can't get better. I could taste everything. 10 out or 10, this place is first class and well worth the money, keep up the good work. The people waiting outside says it all

Greasy and expensive and a nightmare for parking

Best fish and chips in the bay. Just be willing to queue for them as it’s always busy. Worth the wait though. Staff are great hats off to them!

Went here on a Friday lunchtime having read the reviews. I certainly wasn't left disappointed. I've been fortunate with my job covering North Yorkshire to sample so many Fish&Chips eateries in the county. Scarborough for me has some of the best, and I would put this right up there.

Nice fish and chips Large fish and chips was enough to share.Could have done with more sitting out area to enjoy the fish &chips.

By far the best fish and chips in the area

Best fish and chips I've had for a while, along with some scraps and curry sauce

Zero customer service skills. Got they impression they’re too busy to care. Definitely their loss as id of been in here weekly throughout the quite winter season….

Had our tea from here. Cooked fresh and generous portions. Don’t forget to order inside before you join the queue to collect. Great quality .

Excellent fish and chips, freshly and perfectly cooked. Large portions - make sure you're hungry. Usually has a long queue, don't be put off, it's worth it!

Very friendly and attentive staff, food was good and reasonably priced. Would definitely come again

Was recommended here by a fellow fish and chip fiend and it didn’t disappoint. One of the best haddock and chips I’ve had in ages. Everything seemed cooked to order, chips were cooked in dripping, crunchy on the outside and fluffy in the middle, haddock was probably the best I’ve eaten. Batter was light and crunchy and the fish was flakey, white and absolutely beautiful, peas were home made and not tinned processed slop you’d get elsewhere. I can’t wait to return.

Hands down the BEST fish and chips on Scarborough. We were lucky enough to stay around the corner from this gem. It always had a queue outside and for good reason! The small fish was a decent size compared to smalls from other chippies. Will definitely visit again.

Fish and chips absolutely brilliant and plenty of it

Excellent fish n chips. One of the best I've ever had. Great haddock!

Best fish and chips around, hadn't been to Scarborough for about 4 years and when I went back they were still as good as I originally remembered
