Seashells in North Tyneside - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Excellent cod and chips at a good price. All cooked fresh, haddock is wonderful

Often great but sometimes awful, tonight was one of those, chips cold and hard, fish dry, probably should have returned them but after walking home n sitting down was too much effort. Real shame as when good is very good, but waste of money tonight n most went in bin ☹️

You'll have to travel a long way to match this chippy!!! Always quality clean chips from frequent fat changing, minimal scrappy slither ends in the portions due to the large basket hole dimensions. Been my regular for 20 years and never had an over cooked fish. Testament to a True chippy when you can request breadcrumed fish instead of batter. Reason being it taints the fat.

Nice food, big portion of fish and chips and at a good price.😎

Food was amazing new favourite place very good price specials board is great

My regular stop for fish & chips

This place has gone way downhill the past 6 month think it's got new owners or something but quality is no where near as good as it used to be. Chips are super greasy and not very well cooked. been going here for 30 years such a shame

Always good fish analways delicious . Used this fish and chip shop fir 20 years.

One of the great local chip shops, having a free car park next door is particularly handy. Good food, reasonably priced & the staff are great

A tasty portion of fish and chips

Nice place not as good as it was but still ok

Just had best fish and chips in years absolutely beautiful. The staff were brilliant nice and friendly but the food especially the fish and chips absolutely beautiful. Well worth a visit believe me

Always great fish and chips. Long que on Easter Friday but always worth the wait

Sorry but stick to fish n chips cos the kebab was like rubber

A very popular chippy always busy . Good portions and delicious. X

Go nearly every saturday for my dad who says best fish around, thick and very tasty! Staff lovely hard working and friendly!

Lovely, fresh, crispy battered sausage and good portion of lovely fluffy chips!

Service was quick. The batter was crisp and not soggy. The fish was fresh and the chips perfect.

Used to be good on a dinner time for the specials. The prices have went right up. And quality and portion size down 5£ for a 4 tiny fish bites 50p size and they say a splash of gravey the chips don't even get wet

Used to go all of the time [weekly at one point] but haven't been for months now because the last two times beforehand, I've found a hair in my food. Think I may try somewhere else which is local.

Fish and chips doesn't get much better than this. Crisp batter, chips squidgy hot and crisp. Last night's cod was huge. With the chips and a tub of mushy peas it was fantastic. The only downside? It left me so full I could only manage 2 pints in the pub. I used to rate the one in Seaton sluice higher - think seashells is now better.

Friendly staff, well organised, good value

One of the best fish and chip shops in the North East

£5.15 for cheese patty and chips. Won’t be going back at them prices

First time we’ve been in years (not living very near any more). Good staff, quick service and in particular excellent chips.

Would have gave no stars if possible! Paid a very expensive £7.40 to buy my student daughter chicken nuggets and chips with curry sauce, in the hope that she could enjoy a nice meal from her home town when she visited us from university this afternoon. How wrong I was to think it! She couldn’t eat it as it was so inedible! The chicken nuggets were dry and overcooked, and even our pet dog who loves chicken, turned his nose up at them when offered! She gave me a couple of the chips to try and they were the worst I have ever tasted! Dry, over cooked and had a disgusting burnt flavour. The curry sauce was like thick glup! Not nice at all! I would have complained as we were so disappointed that she had to return to university hungry, especially after spending all that, but I’ve had to complain here in the past when she got a hair in her meal, and they do not take very kindly to criticism in that shop and make you feel like you’re somehow to blame! Won’t buy from here again! We’re not fuss pots but this was by far the worst meal from any chip shop we’ve visited!

Fantastic, freshly fried, generous portions and a massive selection to choose from!

Decent local chippy. Quality is very consistent, prices reasonable, and always friendly.

Staff are always welcoming and are happy. Great service. Food is amazing too

Had half chicken and chips, the chicken was beautiful and the chips were perfect. Chicken burger which was also lovely and 2 portions of chicken strips which were also cooked perfectly. Best chips shop since a long time.

Fish is full of bones thought it was standard to have boneless fish?. Grew up in Whitley Bay seems to have never changed. Unless it’s changed in the past 10 years or so since I last went?.

Amazing fish and chips well worth the wait in the rain

Fish n chips were great, good service and good price also 👌🏽👍🏾

Great chips, pea's and battered pineapple rings, good portion reasonable pricing and friendly staff... Highly recommended... 😋 😋 😋

Red hot generous portions Well worth the money fish lovely

This is the best chippy around. If you are anywhere near the beach and want fish and chips, it is well worth going a few minutes down the road to this chippy and getting a good portion and good quality meal, proper chips!!!!! None of this over priced tiny portions of oven chips you get on the see front. This is one of few proper chippys left in the North East and if you haven't been you need to go ASAP!!!!!!

Good price. Lovely fish and chips.

We have been going to Seashell chip shop for years, however over the past year, the quality of the chips has declined. We called their tonight and to be totally honest, they were the worst chips we have ever had, seagulls fodder at St Mary’s lighthouse 🤬 time to move on 🥲

Reasonable prices Fresh,will definitely be back

Always lovely food. The queue says it all for how good it is!

Be a while since I had fish and chips so off to the best? It was saturday12.15 ordered fish and chips.chips were good fish was like a bit of cardboard.batter was soft and not a good taste very disappointed. Maurice.

If you don't know about Seashell's by now it's probably too late for you. You'll just have to join the queue of those of us who know.

Food was beautiful red hot. I would like say best chippy around. Staff are so friendly and helpful. Apart from one I phone to place big order. How rude this lady was . Not helpful at all. Such shame as for years I used this chip shop . For home and work. They had 20 orders off me at one time. Some of my residents heard how rude she was and they said they will never use this chip shop again What shame one person is doing this to the business. But well'done to the rest of the staff for beautiful food and service xx

Best chippy in monkseaton by far great value too well worth waiting in the queue 👌

Sensational chips from this little gem in Monkseaton. Great chips and loads of vinegar and salt. Chips covered with batter and the chips were fantastic! Well worth a visit!!

Nice chippy but can be hit or miss, staff not very friendly though, really don't look happy working there which is always a worry!

Friendly staff, good portions, food lovely.

Always go here for our fish and chips . Nothing much beats or equals this shop.

Ordered 3 haddock and chips tonight with curry and mushy peas .£36 with drinks . Got home to have a nice meal , but were soaked in fat were so greasy really were not nice Also the lady that served me were so miserable who served us and no people skills what's so ever .

Overcharged for Cod Bites and Chips as they added an extra £10 onto my order for no reason and I only found out once I check my bank account at home, extremely greasy food with very little fish and chips tasted fake somehow! service was extremely poor too, I will make sure to not be coming back here ever again

The lady was lovely, very friendly :-) food was lovely and fresh

This is one of the best chippies in the area. Food is great and the staff are friendly despite the large queues. Get there early!

Best Chippy in North Tyneside 👍

Gone down hill . Really disappointed total waste of money. £15.40 for fish bite and chips and sausage and chips . Fish bites were cold and like rubber. Chips weren’t nice either.

Big piece of fish, nice!! Chicken burger also good. Great mushy peas, Chips well cooked.

The best chippie in Whitley Bay/Monkseaton, some others are "award winning" hmmm this is better.

Always the nicest fish and chips 😋

One of the best chippys in the north! Always handy when you want a decent chippy tea without the Ques of the coast!

Fish was lovely. Just over £7 for a cod now! Chips were dry

Chip stottie with sauce is delicious. Perfect comfort food. Big portion too. Also the steak pie is delicious. Big pieces of steak. And looks homemade so if you want to wow your family with your "homemade" steak pies then go there

Great fish and chips, would recommend.

No grilled fish available only fried, but the worst sin were soggy chips. First and last visit

Not been for a long time ,but today chips are lush

Went at the end of the night as the fryers had been turned off. Staff were nice and friendly and food was delicious. Healthy portion sizes with plenty to spare. Only downfall is the batter was too thick on the fish!

Had fish and chips. Fish was lovely and white not grey like some I have had. Proper chips not just crunchy ends and the batter was light and crispy. Would recommend a visit.

This is the very best fish and chip shop in the north east . Staff are always very friendly and very helpful . The food is always freshly cooked and very hot . Would definitely recommend every time . Loverly yum yum ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great fish and chips. Lovely taste.

Food was alright but the staff were so miserable dont know what they are getting paid but couldn’t put a smile on their face the last time I was there

Nice food, helpful and friendly staff

I work all over the uk and nothing beats Haddock and chips with curry sauce from seashells

My fish & chip shop of choice in the area. I don’t think I’ve had a bad meal from there. Fish is usually always cooked to order, rather than sitting waiting to be bought. Portion sizes are very generous too.

Food always OK but miserable staff

Quality fish and chips and lovely service! My partner and I came about 9pm looking for food but found gold instead. A simple store front, filled warm service. Huge portions and great tasting fresh fish. Ordered the cod and haddock (freshly made!), chips, mushy peas and curry sauce, which was also really good! Probably the best chippy to go if you're looking for a late night visit to the beach. P.s Goes well with whisky

Very nice chippy. Had the chips and chicken strips special, think it was £3.50 everything was hot and tasty. Only downside was the portion size on the chips, would of had a little bit more. The size was a little bit small. But in saying that if i was to pass by again on my lunch i would go in again 👍

Best chippy at the coast. Well worth the 5 minute drive.

Used to love this place. After my last visit, not so much. I appreciate it was towards the end of the night, but I've never felt so unwanted in a shop. No greeting as we walked in, no acknowledgement that we'd actually placed an order. They just worked on the first part without thinking 3 people might be ordering more than one portion of chips... anything else we ordered during this time was met with again, no acknowledgement, we actually felt awkward just trying to order our meals. Everything was so dry, and the chips I think had been refried to an inch of their life. Black, burnt, hollow. A real shame, I've been going to this chip shop for 20 years. Just can justify spending money in a place that doesn't want you there the moment you walk in.

Beautiful crispy batter on a good size, firm, cod. Generous portion of chips. In future will share 2 portions of chips between 3 as we had so many left. Son said the battered sausage was lovely.

Great tasting chips and curry sauce

Best chippy in the area. Very busy so keeps things fresh.

Very nice food and reasonably priced

One of my favourite fish n chip shops, great quality, reasonable prices, next to car park. Lovely.

This is the best fish and chips shop about the food is really nice BBQ chicken is the best for me

Very good fish & chips. We were a large party & also got a fish finger sandwich & veggie burger & were told that they were good too.

It will be a good 18 months since I purchased from seashells chippy Monkseaton. Today I was really looking forward to their fish and chips but how disappointed was I. The fish batter was soggy and chewy and the fish its self was also chewy and dry. The chips tepid a some where soggy. All together very disappointing.

Great chip shop ,been going for about 20 yrs & never had a bad meal 👍

Large portions but tasteless. When we went.

The fish was beautiful and was huge

Cheap kids & special deals but chips not good

Hubby was delighted with his meal tonight Piping hot and fish and chips cooked to perfection - fish in golden gorgeous batter with succulent fish and chips just as he likes them 😋

Brill fish and chips for good prices, staff are always friendly

Fast service .Kept our distances Fish fresh hot and delicious

Always freshly cooked, always really nice

Rude woman that served us and average tasting fish and chips.

Very yummy 😋fish and chips! Enjoy!

I really like the fish and chips. Half a chicken and pies super too. It’s got a really nice atmosphere. Quite a few special offers too- so do read the posters!

Great service and the staff are both friendly and helpful. The food is great, the chips are the best I've had in years. Prices are good too. Wide ranging menu.

Been going 18 years always find others fail to meet seashells quality.
