Silver Street Fisheries in Scarborough

Silver Street has always been our go to for fish and chips. Really disappointed by last nights chips. Soggy, funny coloured, like they had been in and out of the fryer a few times but were raw in the middle. This is such a shame as they have always been the best in Whitby.

Really affordable good fish and chips. We had scampi as well and that was superb. Nice to have a little sitting spot where you can eat your chippy

Can't beat the fish and chips best in whitby, but they seem to please themselves on opening times, very disappointed AGAIN this weekend says 8.00 close we turned up at 6.00 and closed 😡.

Best fish and chips in Whitby but catching them open is a nightmare! They really need to update their opening times more regularly. Very disappointed this weekend. Supposed to be open until 8 so turned up at 6 and they were shut 😡

Need to be more direct with days that they are open I’m here in January 26th and you say your open til 8pm on goggle and your not You are a really awesome place but dont have the best customer service.

I’m staggered by some of the previous posts I ordered two haddock and one portion of chips and a portion of 4 small fish for our dog 🐶 the fish was thick and meaty you could actually taste the freshness the batter could have done with cooking a little longer has it was soggy in the middle the girl who served us didn’t seem to be listening too much either I would prefer to see the fish being cooked inside the shop didn’t like the open serving hatch enjoyed what we had

We used this chippy as it was close to where we're staying for the weekend. Ordered haddock and chips x2 and portion of peas =£17 . The girl taking the order was not really listening to us and we had to keep repeating ourselves. Sat on the bench to wait , then back to the apartment . Mine was quite greasy and the batter was soggy underneath .My BIG complaint was -- THIS WAS NOT HADDOCK !! It had a strange taste to it , which lingered well after eating it. We come from a fishing port and know what real haddock tastes like -- not this . Avoid if you want to actually eat the fish you asked for.

Great find in Whitby. Brilliant ordering system and fantastic food, whilst keeping cost competitive. No.1 choice when returning

I wanted 3 portions of chips 2 with salt & vinegar. what I got was 3 portions of very greasy chips with no salt & vinegar. The ratings on here urged me to try it ..I wish I went elsewhere now..😡

I will start with the positives, the fish and chips are frashly cooked and up there in terms of taste with many of the other chip shops in the area. Unfortunately the speed of service is woefully slow. From joining the que there were 7 people in front of us waiting to order and 6 waiting to collect after ordering. It took 49minutes until we received our food order. Amazingly the speed of service is now slower than it was in Covid where allowances for slow service could be made. This chip shop has been a regular stop for me for over 40years and i have alot of fond memories of the place. Please sort out your service speed, i fear your proffits must be taking an enormous hit, there were at least 10 people who left the que before ordering due to the slow speed & to turn away such business is madness.

Took 40 mins to get the order, took it back to hotel to find the order we got was wrong food was oki but not good service

I saw a review online saying this was the best fish and chips - I wasn't disappointed! Freshly cooked fish in the crispiest batter and really good chips too! I'd recommend it to anyone 😊

Disappointing dry fish. Used to be really nice. Has it got new owners? Couldn't go in shop, served through hatch so didnt see the Haddock and Cod being fryed. Will try somewhere else next time

Hands down the best Fish and Chips I've ever had!! The fish was so fresh and delicate. I can't wait to visit whitby again just for this

Often use this chip shop and it has a very good reputation. However on this occasion, I found the portion to be very small and the chips undercooked. On this particular visit it was the Cod that I was the most disappointed with, in that it was more like a half portion, and when I cut into it, it was what I could only describe as bits of fish inside the batter, not one solid piece of fish. I have no idea why it was like this, and have never before come across this. All in all very disappointing and certainly not value for money.

Have to say this experience left us searching for words having being treated so badly by a very ignorant man who clearly cannot be wrong, We use this Chippy frequently (Now Past Tense)as its very close to our Apartment in Whitby, So we ordered as usual and mentioned that an a previous visit the Chips were not cooked through at all, Not after a freebie just thought they would like constructive feedback, What followed was ridicules as the girl spoke with the Fryer because arms length away from us as if you don't know this Chippy you pay at a Window outside and get a numbered ticket given to you then your food is handed to you from another window once your number is called, Old owners let you in the chippy for a chat and a joke but they were clearly a lot more customer focused and appreciated your custom Getting no feedback at all i asked the man once again for this, To say he was rude was and understatement basically calling me and my wife Liars as he would never sent out uncooked chips(This was all in front of our 10 year Old Granddaughter) Totally arrogant and very unprofessional !!! My advise would be use another Chippy that appreciate your custom

Don't go anywhere else for your fish & chips. Freshly cooked, fresh fish in a light crispy batter with no skin or bones. Absolutely delicious! The chips are perfectly cooked as well. 👍

Heard great reviews about silver Street fish and chips this was the worst meal we have ever had Chips discusting fish looked like it came from Iceland freezer never again

Ordered food… waited an hour… then only got one portion when I asked for 5. Didn’t seem to understand the concept of time… and there was no salt and vinegar! Loads of annoyed people waiting too. Don’t go unless you have one hour to spare

Absolutely fantastic. Best value in Whitby. Gorgeous fish and chips.

Whitby’s best kept secret! Tucked away from the crowds along a side alley. Some of the best fish and chips I’ve had! Portions not massive by modern standards but plenty enough. Had to put my own salt & vinegar which was a bit fiddly reopening all the boxes but adds to the quirkiness. Definitely be back!

Cooking to order meant a long wait. There were plenty of people around so worth the risk of cooking plenty.

Fantastic fish and chips and the price was excellent also. If you go to Whitby this is the shop to get your fish and chips. From the shop we walked and sat on bench seats over looking the harbour. Forget the fancy shops who charge ridiculous prices.

First class, freshly fried fish and good value.

Some of the best fish and chips ever.

Very nice freshly cooked fish and chips. Slightly off the beaten track, smaller queues, less touristry

Great fish and chips, great prices, friendly service. Always visit here when in Whitby. Would recommend.

This used to be our go-to "hidden gem" where we thought we'd found the best fish n chips in Whitby at a reasonable price. We've been coming for years. Since (and during) Covid we've seen it slowly decline. Yesterday's visit will be our last. The food was so far removed from what we'd been used to. It was the kind of standard I'd expect if I asked for fish and chips in a kebab shop here in Nottingham. Possibly worse. Half the chips were undercooked and the fish seemed to me like it wasn't fresh. Even my wife - the eternal optimist - agreed it wasn't what it used to be. It's not just the food. The place has changed. It used to be a bustling, busy chip where you went INSIDE and felt like you were among the locals getting their dinner. Now you stand outside at a glass screen struggling to hear the guy on the other side mumbling. It's lost all its personality and charm. Such a shame.

Best fish and chips in Britain.

Excellent value and great service

We had read previous reviews about this takeaway and decided to give it a try for lunch, and we were not disappointed. The fish was a good size and covered in perfectly cooked light crispy batter. The chips were just the right golden brown colour I like and to top it all, they were cheaper than any other takeaway we had looked at. The local park is just around the corner, so we sat in the sunshine, looking at the view of Whitby while having our lunch.

Some of the best fish and chips I've ever eaten. Thin, crisp batter on fresh fish. Chips are fantastic. Curry sauce is about average but the fish and chips are so good it's kind of a shame to put sauce on it. Staff are friendly, service is quick and much cheaper than most of Whitby.

2023 Edit Still the best Fish and Chips in Whitby by a long shot. Every cooked fresh. Reasonable prices. out of the way . Great place. New favourite spot in Whitby 2022 update: by far the best dish and chips in Whitby. Avoid the crowds at the Magpie and go here instead, you will not be disappointed. Freshly cooked, friendly staff, small seating area outside. Definitely recommend

I would say the best takeaway fish and chips in Whitby. Generous portions too and if your lucky there are two tables outside to eat on, although you have to be quick as they get occupied quickly. Value for money is great too, I got a fish and chips and a sausage and chips, all for £12

Absolutely fabulous fish and chips

Very nice cod and chips,cook fresh to order, Friendly staff. And you get plenty to eat. Very good . Give them 5stars.

This used to have the best fish and chips in Whitby. It seems to have changed hands and it looks like the new owner has chosen to alter the previously winning formula. Entry into the inner sanctum is now forbidden and you have to order at a hatch and wait outside until the number on your cloakroom ticket is called. Your number is shouted out and you receive now distinctly average fish and chips packaged up so you have to unwrap it at the hatch if you want salt or vinegar. Two cold, uncomfortable metal benches and tables are available outside whilst people stand all around you waiting for their orders. This was a splendid operation but impersonal service and an average product is now the offer here……what a shame.

Not as busy as front restaurants and never had to queue, very clean and staff excellent. Portions sizes ok, my wife had cod & I had haddock both extremely tasty & freshly cooked

Still have covid procedures so can’t enter and have to talk to someone through a slot serving hatch. It’s very unwelcoming. The fish was lovely but it all felt a bit clinical and strange

We did have to wait quite a while for our order...

That was the best cod we’ve ever had ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great fish and chips takeaway! Super value and service. Fish cooked to order and well worth the wait. Enjoyed our chippy tea!

Lovely, tasty fish and chips. Cooked and served well. Plump, well cooked fish, batter, crisp and good weight.

Reasonably priced fish and chips and decent tea.

A back street out of the way chippy but worth a visit if you that side of town.Great fish and chips a little Gem of a chippy . Everything cooked to order with a daily special if you want it Haddock and Cod extremely good as good if not better than magpie etc in Town .New opening times compared to what on internet closed Sunday Monday open evening only Tuesday Wednesday Thursday 1630 until 1930 .open Friday Saturday dinner 1130 until 1330 and 1630 until 1930 in evening according to black board at the Chippy.Nice looking surrounding fence and seating area ,sea scape design out of metal very good

Always head here for my fish and chips. The fish is cooked while you wait....so fresh. Tables and seating outside too.

First time we have used this fish shop and were delighted with the fish and chips we bought. Service was efficient and the fish was cooked to order. Seemed as though both locals and tourists were ordering.

Where do I begin! Came highly recommended this place and it certainly did not let us down! Little tricky to find but please do make the effort it is certainly worth it! Whilst in Whitby you must have Cod snd Scampi and so we did! The price, the service the quality, freshly cooked to order its The Best! Thank you so much and when were back in Whitby we shall see you again 😀🙌🏻

Beautiful food at a reasonable cost.

Lovely fish and chips. Our favourite fish and chip shop in Whitby. Quite reasonable prices too.

We stayed at the angel wetherspoons,we fancied fish and chips ,I checked the chippys out on TripAdvisor and decided to go to Silver Street fisheries it's left out of spoons and up a hill ,we weren't disappointed,my wife had cod & chips the fish was MASSIVE only £6 I got 4 fish bites and small chips only £13 for both.Its only a takeaway no seating inside.

Great fish and chips. More reasonably priced than most in Whitby. A great little find

Batter was too crispy so it just broke away from the fish. Fish was flavourless.

Very slow, then to top it off they missed the chips off the order so now waiting another 20 minutes for my chips. Just hope they are nice.

Fish: 10/10 Chips: 7/10 Chicken nuggets: 7/10

Great fish and chips, reasonable prices. Recommended !

Tucked away in the side streets is this lovely fish & chip shop, the portion size is very good, they tasted great and the price is even better, will deffo be going back before we head home, well done guy's

We were wary of getting take away from here because of the mixed reviews, but decided to give it a go as we were staying round the corner. Fish was fresh and batter crisp. Price was very reasonable. No complaints from us

Your budget will find all possible means of escape in Whitby. This place bucks the trend. Found it on a general walk around & explore. Very friendly, great portions and a fraction of the price of anywhere else I've seen. Was told the chips were made using a first fry at lower temperature followed by a high temperature fry so means a crisper, full-flavoured chip. Had large sausage and chips, curry sauce, a pickled eggs with a shandy for around £7. Top quality. Nice benches terrace/patio at the front to sit in whilst I demolished. Destroyed the wooden fork but they didn't bat an eyelid and gave me two replacements. It's hidden away but well worth making the effort to find. So good I returned the following night.

Left a one star review in July as the food was awful, truly the pits. However plucked up courage at the weekend as it is very local to us and gave it another go. To be fair it was amongst the best fish and chips...

Had fish n chips with mushy peas and curry sauce. We asked for scraps and where given a small box filled. Excellent, never visited before but will definitely be back

Haven't been to Silver street since it was taken over. We used to come here regularly when the Welsh guy ran it. He was always friendly, had great conversation and his food was top notch. Today's visit was the complete opposite. Met at the hatch...

A little bizzare still having COVID procedures but the.quality of the food and value for money is still fantastic! Huge piece of fresh haddock and a really generous portion of chips for £7.50 in this day is a bargain compared to what you pay down in the touristy spots.

Good prices,very tasty fish and chips. The portions were also good size. Quick turn around,did not wait long at all for the food to be ready. Love the table and chairs that have a fish theme.

Fantastic best fish in Whitby and best price top marks Silver Street

So my family have used thos chip shop for the last 15 years. It has always been excellent. However something has changed (as is reflected in reviews). There's no reason to keep customers out in the cold now. There's no reason to run out of things like curry sauce. Foods back to good again but service definitely lacking.

The food was served quick. Food was fairly priced. I did not like the taste unfortunately, the batter on the fish was bland.

Nice fish and chip shop tucked out of the way. The fish was really good - decent size, tasty and with lovely crisp batter. The chips though were a bit of a let down - tasty enough but thin and some were undercooked.

after reading reviews we thought we would give this chippy a try . Sadly our experience was different from the others here . The staff were miserable and unfriendly . Fish was grey coloured ,batter very greasy and chips were hard as if they had been sat around for some length of time . Won't be making a return visit

Amazing fish and chips at a reasonable price. Great quality fish and perfect chips. Good portion size. We will return.

Get there at least an hour before closing. Great food though.

What can I say apart from superb! The fish and chips were delicious with melt in the mouth batter and excellent fish, we had a seafood basket special and it was amazing 👏 😋

Just fantastic, one of the best fish and chips in Whitby! Beautiful large fish cooked to order, delicious.

Fabulous place, aper back street chippie, I don't think you'd find it unless you were told about it👍

Recommended to me by 2 Whitby locals and the quality did not disappoint. I will pass on the recommendation

Still persisting with COVID protocols. Outside queueing (in rain) to order. Ordered 2 lightly battered haddock. The batter was like hard discuit dark brown in colour, texture was pretty grim and not enjoyable at all. Even our dog wouldn't eat it. Fortunately, there are plenty of others to try.

I have two reviews. 1. For people who live south of Nottingham. This may be the the most brilliant chip shop you have ever experienced, if, you have not been 'oop North' before. 2. For sophisticated 'Northerners'. You queue at one window to place your...

Absolutely fabulous fish and chips at a fraction of the price of chip shop around the harbour, really is worth worth stepping back a few streets to find this hidden gem 😋😋

Wow! Just fantastic! The fish was huge and cooked perfectly with alight batter and excellent chips. Can’t fault it at all.

Wow what a place great portions very tasty first class service delicious yet again would recommend this place to anyone.

No frills fish and chips. There is more than just fish and chips on the menu, but that's really the star of the show. The restaurant was take out with minimal seating outside. Remember to order ketchup packets when you buy your meal. Generous portions and low prices.

Best haddock and chips I have had in years well worth the vist

The best fish & chips I have had for years Visiting Whitby for a week & will definitely be back before we go home. A pity the opening hours are limited.

great fish and chips-chips are amazing,not soggy and perfectly crispy 🤤

Visited twice while staying in Whitby. Once we had eaten here, didn’t need to try another chippy ! Take away, Battered cod , cod bites, chips and mushy peas . Just lovely .

Excellent fish, chips and mushy for cheaper than in town. Pay on the left hand side, cards accepted, get a ticket, then retrieve your order when it is called on the right hand side.

Really good food, cooked fresh, tasted delicious, crispy batter, fresh fish, excellent prices! A good find!

Some of the best fish and chips in Whitby, which is to say some of the best fish and chips anywhere.

this fish shop is not on your usual tourist path but is frequented by mostly locals and I'm not surprised. It is take away only but you get two fish meals for £15 and it is generous and good quality. The staff are friendly and...

Absolutely the best Fish & Chips in Whitby value for money was a plus 😍

Always a highlight of our annual holiday in Whitby. This is the best place for fish and chips in the whole town. Made fresh to order, quick service and never fails to hit the spot!

Fabulous chips as many chip shops chips are too soggy for my liking. Mushy peas first clash which accompanied excellent Scampi. Would definitely return. Oh and excellent value

Best tasteing fish & chips in whitby 😋. ♥️

Generous portions and of good quality, freshly cooked best fish and chips i have had in ages. Would highly recommend.

This beats The Magpie and the rest of the downtown chippies. Fish fried to.order and very nice .. they do "Yorkshire fishcakes". Check.opening times before you go.

One of the best chip shops in Whitby, a bit out of the way from the main harbour area but worth going.

Fish bites and chips today. The order I have had for the last 12 summer holidays. Sadly, chips were soggy and undercooked . Fish bites , various sizes, from small ball shapes containing hardly any fish, to slightly bigger bites! Batter soggy. Most of it...

Why que outside other fish shops and pay twice as much for fish+chips cannot fault this place I have tried the rest now I go to the best.

Superb Fish and Chips. 1 street behind the Quayside and £s cheaper and as good, if not better than the well known chippies.
