Scott Street Fisheries in Redcar and Cleveland

I LOVE FISH & CHIPS! Much to the chagrin of my wife and family, I am a very fussy eater. There are many more things in a supermarket that I won't eat compared to what I'm prepared to offer to my mouth. Consequently, the period between order and presentation of food in a pub, restaurant, or even fast-food establishment is fraught with anxiety. I'm always meticulous with my request and am totally bamboozled if the plate/box/package arriving isn't a true representation of my carefully prepared requisition. F & C's, what could go wrong? Whilst a request for "Fish & chips with scraps please" usually results in the arrival of the correct component parts, the taste consistency at most establishments often flatters to deceive. Not so with 'Box-Chippy', which is our colloquialism for Hutton Lane Fish Shop. In 2001, it was the first estate F&C shop we'd ever had our delights served in a box, hence the nick-name. During the intervening 24 years, the number of times Box-Chippy has disappointed can be counted on the male appendages on my lower body. It is without any fear of contradiction, the best and most consistent chippy I've ever experienced. As was the case last Saturday (25th Jan 25), a family group WhatsApp invitation to join my wife and I for 'Box-Chippy' always receives instant acceptance. I'm then dispatched with my wife's hand-written order and verbal instructions to "rush there and hurry back." Satisfaction was purchased, and a table of contented adults ensued. WE ALL LOVE 'BOX-CHIPPY!"

Awful place, food was cold and soggy and the managers were just as bad arguing infront of customers and treating staff horribly. Wouldn’t recommend at all

Spot on great pub really nice staff food is very good always.

Only chippy I eat from cos I always find chippy chips hard and awful but this place as the best and freshest food I've had from a chippy. The staff are friendly and very welcoming.

Really lovely and friendly service today, on a very busy day in Redcar. Had to queue outside as they were so busy but we were kept informed and given a table quickly on the ground floor as we had our 10 month old granddaughter with us. Sarah looked after us, talked and laughed with the baby, took the pram so it was out of the way and was just really kind and helpful. The food is really well cooked traditional fish & chips and I couldn’t pick fault with anything. My granddaughter was brought cute child sized cutlery, even though we didn’t order for her (she ate from our plates). Just good service, great food and fabulous staff (who were coping brilliantly with the mass of customers). Would recommend.
