Stokesley Fish & Chips in Hambleton

Went here on a Saturday afternoon for a quick bite to eat. The fish was very thin and flavourless with a mushy texture. The batter was very thick and greasy, and it was soggy on the inside. Probably the worst fish I've ever had from a chippy. You can't put your own salt and vinegar on either. I won't be going back.

What has happened to this once lovely chippy? Went about 2 months ago on a Sunday lunchtime and was disappointed by awful food but thought it was just an off day. Tried them again yesterday teatime, ..still awful. The batter was thick and greasy, the fish inside had very small 'flakes' and no taste, the chips had no potato inside just dried up and chewy ( I suspect they were warmed up) They are charging £8.80 for this rubbish.(paid less in York !)There's an overpowering smell of cheap cooking oil in and around the premises rather than what should be a delicious aroma, I should have known better when I got a whiff of this, and not bothered going in. Never again.

Travelling from the South to Stokesley on a Bank Holiday Monday, called a couple of days before to ask If this was open on Bank Holdiay Monday and was told that yes, it was open until 7pm. We were there just after 6pm and it was closed. We went the following day because we remembered it as being a good fish and chip shop but I wish we hadn’t bothered. The fish cake, beef burger and chips were luke warm, chips soggy, fishcake dried up with some disgusting brown on the edge it made me feel sick to look at so ended up in the bin. We won’t be returning,

There was no problem when I asked for a Gluten Free fish and chips. It was cooked in 30 mins and ready when I went back. As a coeliac I really appreciate it when I can get GF food. They were lovely and a good portion.

Went to go get dinner from there and when I received them they where cold and green and burnt didn’t taste very nice and I did not receive a fork to eat with box was falling apart too

Had some chips and a sausage whilst still the fair half a scoop of chip and tge sausage was tiny. Rubbish.

Rarely do we bother with eating out near home - this time we did. We were last here 18 months ago and thought they were outstanding We are pleased to report that we remain delighted with the cheery service and the excellent fish and chips.

Decided to try Stokesley F&S as they serve gluten free fish and had good reviews. We ordered 4 fish and chips, one of which was was gluten free. All meals were barely edible. Chips in particular were warm ups and included burnt and green ones. All at a price 50% higher price than the Parkway, which are far better.

Chips had definitely been re heated as looked and tasted burnt Asked if wanted salt and vinegar .. food absolutely swamped in both very little fish in side the very salty batter

Need to update your opening hours on the website and tripadvisor! We rerouted to go here for food with a toddler and child to be told by a rude man we are closed!! We arrived at 17:00. Online it’s says open every day until 20:30 and on the door it says open until 18:00!

Only had chips which were very good. Quick service and reasonable price. Situated in a nice little town with some shops and restaurants, including Thai.

Very mediocre, nigh on £28 for 4 fish and chip takeouts. When Britain’s favourite reached these prices you’d at least expect to enjoy them.

Called here on our way back from the coast, won't bother again. Chips were ok, but the fish was very oily underneath presumably from not being drained off enough. Threw the complete bottom part of the batter away, but the fish inside was fine so not a complete waste Also have to say I have never been charged for a wooden fork before.

Staying nearby during Lockdown 2.0 in the midst of a house move. So we had a takeaway from here. Simply outstanding- marvellous fish and chips, much appreciated. We’ve moved nearby, we’ll be back.....

Good simple chippy, no frills, cheap prices. Good selection of food and drinks, take to your car and enjoy!

Called this evening for fish and chips, and very disappointing they were. The chips were were just to say cooked and tasteless because of this. The fish was ok but the batter was awful, thick and uncooked on the inside. A waste of £13.90. Will not be calling again!

At the moment takeaway only but great cod and chips Had to wait for fish to be cooked but well worth it. Massive piece of cod perfectly cooked Don’t tell my wife

The cafe is currently closed but take away still available.Small cod and chips with mushy peas X 2 just £10.30.Lovely and fresh and tasty.All safe, order inside one person at a time, separate enterance and exit, wait outside whilst it's freshly cooked.Friendly service

Called in with our lass for (sit on the bench and do the fish and chips) enjoyed my fish and chips. First class crack and service from the two girls behind the counter. Went and got a bar of chocolate for the way they made me feel like I'm in here every day. Cheers girls on the ball @@@

Visited here twice last week on Monday and Tuesday and im never disappointed with the service or the quality of food here. We will always return , its excellent ! Well done to the cheery staff who always have a laugh and a smile for their customers . Keep it up ! Debbie , Mark, Jack and Millie from Ingleby Barwick

Rolling into Stokesley after a fun but tiring day exploring the lanes of the North Yorkshire moors the group I was with were all hungry so it was decided we'd hit the chippy, the Stokesley fish shop became the object of desire, decorated in a light scheme of mainly white with pink and blue bits in the restaurant side away from the takeaway side.The fish is cooked to order and I'm told is pretty good, i had the battered sausage which was lovely and made with i think a cumberland one, the chips were also lovely and their chip spice makes them a little more spectacular!As they're open daily you should always be able to get a good meal!!

Sat in upstairs restaurant, food was very good, looked after by 2 wonderfully polite ladies. Look forward to our next visit. See photos for food and price.

A great place to get well priced, quick and tasty fish and chips. You can also sit in at the restaurant which is also a great meal. Nothing else to say other than - great food, would recommend!

Hadn’t visited here for a few so was glad to see the food is consistently as good , friendly staff and immaculately clean dining area and toilets facilities spotless, keep up the good work!

Waited ten minutes to be served with cold greasy chips , then after opened the tea pot to see 1. Tea bag !! At a cost of £3.60 disgusting extortion . Was told by the server “the management tell us to just use 1 because they are Yorkshire tea” after the tea was drunk during the wait for fresh chips she offered to put in another tea bag or top it up with water , my god !!! No way will we be back . Beware to check what your paying for . I refused to pay and paid for the 1 tea bag only . She refunded a curry sauce for the rubbish chips . Wonder how much they make on 1 box of t bags !

Situated on Stokesley high street is this fish and chip shop with a lovely diner attached. Few seats downstairs but more upstairs.Surprised at review of miserable staff as lady who served us was lovely. Decked up nicely with lovely clean toilets. Parking is free for two hours in stokesley with a disc. Food was fantastic, they do fish and chips, burgers, hot dogs and breakfast. It was the nicest fish and chips I've had in a long time.All day breakfast for £6 was great value.

Woman behind counter didn't have time of day for me. I'm an outsider. She needs to cheers up. Not be going back

We visited on 16/11/2019 on a very dismal day! We were given a very warm welcome by the friendly staff. The menu was straightforward and I had cod and chips and my wife had scampi and salad. Both meals were substantial and very tasty. The cod was bigger than I would usually expect and was cooked really well. We engaged with the staff who were friendly and chatty without being over the top. Value for money is excellent. With our pots of tea is was just over £20, brilliant. Thank you and we will visit again (soon I hope)

First time of trying fish and chips from Stokesley fish shop for a lot of years.Tried them today as found out they do gluten free.Will try again and hopefully fat will,be fresher.

This fish shop is well worth going to. The fish was fresh and well cooked. The batter was light and crispy. The chips were very good. The staff were friendly and looked after us well. We sat in for the meal and the eating area was clean and light. Would certainly recommend this fish shop and would certainly go again

Had a lovely family meal of fish and chips today, food was delicious, atmosphere was lovely. It was a hot day so after we had eaten, my brother, dad and I stood to go outside for air whilst my mum stayed to pay the the bill. She was just getting up with her debit card in her hand to save the waitress who had been lovely so far only for the waitress to confront me with “so the bill isn’t getting paid then!” Totally let the place down. Embarrassed my mum who felt ignored and then shamed for only trying to be helpful. Perhaps an “are you ready to pay?” or “are you paying cash or card?” could have sufficed?

Called in on way from Keighley to Whitby , recent Saturday pm

Central Stokesley with convenient free parking outside shop.

Traveled from York to this excellent shop for our chippy. Worth the travel as we were served by a lovely lady and excellent fish and chips. Will visit again soon

We call in regular and the fish is cooked to order, never had a bad meal yet. You have the option of take out or sit in, if sitting in you place your order in the restaurant.

I guess it’s all about the timing. Too long after schools out and before ‘after work’ folk start using this F&C; restaurant. My chips were stodgy, discoloured and so thrown away after eating only a couple. This was the second time in as many weeks We have been disappointed. My advice? Travel 2 more miles to Great Ayton, consistently better food.

Great food! Fish and chips are huge and the service was brilliant. The funkiest menus I’ve ever seen and one of the cleanest establishments I’ve eaten in. 110% would recommend to anyone.

We hadn’t been for a couple of years, but we knew what to expect. We weren’t disappointed. Spotless sit down and nice clean washrooms. It makes a difference. There are many places I have walked out of. Not this one. On long journeys my wife is not a good eater but after a long day, she woofed her Haddock down. Not a scrap left. Easy park outside. It was 6 p.m., so free, Busier in daytime. Thanks......We will be back.

Visited whilst on holiday. Great fish cake, chips, mushy peas and tartare sauce. Served on a fish shaped plate. Husband enjoyed battered burger, chips and curry sauce. He said it was ‘just the way I like it’. Lovely service and very clean and welcoming. Thanks.

We visited in January and were made to feel welcome right away. Orders were taken and alternative items off menu were offered if we wanted (different sodas with ice cream floats, fries options etc). The food was freshly cooked and delicious. Can't wait to go back!

Came with adults and small child. Staff were very welcoming and upstairs where we sat was spotless. There is a good choice of food from traditional fish and chips to bacon butties. Service was quick. Drinks came straight after we ordered and the food was delicious. It was almost full when we left. A place to go back to very soon

Very nice diner with great food which was excellent! Was welcomed with a smile and food was freshly cooked. Can honestly say the Burger was amazing and will be going back when I’m in town again.

Child’s cod bites chips and fruit shoot, Pattie and chips and portion of chips take out just over £9. All food very good.

Haven't been here for years but was very pleasantly surprised. Fish and chips were great, haddock was even a bit on the large side for us. Great quality and very nice

Have been here a few times since my last visit and I have to say, I've never been disappointed yet either with the food or staff. That's why I keep coming back

would it be too hard to smile! Greet your customers or even give them what they ordered. This place has certainly changed over the last 40 years NOT FOR THE BETTER

Very clean and welcoming,small but cosy.

visited at lunchtime and shop was fairly busy so i had to wait a little while to be served and my order taken and the fish to be cooked fresh but it was well worth the wait . The fish was nice and tasty the batter was nice and crisp and the chips were good too.

Visited Stokesley fish and chips today for lunch in their cafe with friends. The service was excellent and the food was fantastic, honestly some of the best fish and chips we've had in a long while and the onion rings were simply wonderful. Batter was very light and crunchy. Will definitely be back again. Makes for a lovely day out from Scarborough.

Got fish and chips to take away. Fish was grey under batter and smell was awful. Could not find a bin quick enough and then sir car.

On a recent visit to stokesley we decided to call in for fish & chips. After waiting 20 minutes to have our order taken, being ignored the whole time, we walked out. A table of 4 ladies who entered after us had their order taken.Would not use again. Found a great pub over the road , & had a lovely lunch.

Called here for quick tea, greeted by a lovely lady who gave us menus and left us for a few minutes to decide, we had children’s cod and chips, and adult meal, it arrived piping hot freshly cooked and delicious, we also had a fresh pot of Yorkshire tea, great food and excellent customer service!! Highly recommended.

Not been here for many years. Last time it was an old traditional fish & chip shop. Now an American themed diner. I know it's a chippy but went for the all day breakfast. My wife the cheese and bacon burger and our little girl a plate of bacon. Waitress couldn't do enough for us. So friendly. Had to wait a while for the food but it was worth it. Great food. And good value. Will definitely be visiting again. Will try the fish &chips; next time.

I felt quite sorry for the girls working in there as it was far too hot. The customers had to stand at the door way to get some fresh air. The owner should be able to put some air conditioning in there. Even the customers were finding it too hot and air conditioning would help them as well as the workers. They are very friendly girls and the fish and chips are great. Lovely crispy batter and the chips are almost like home made.

Really nice English Heritage property with wonderful views of the surrounding countryside.

Really bad fish & chips . Rude staff . Fish very greasy and tasteless .

Although this is an iconic fish and chip shop that i used to visit as a child 30 years ago, its not as nice as all those years ago, ( although i still do visit) fish a little greasy chips nice though.

Not the best chips are greasy fish tasteless I would rather drive somewhere else than stop again here

I have celiac disease so wasn't expecting a great deal. Possibly some chips and maybe an unbattered fish cooked in a microwave. How wrong was I. They have a good selection of gluten free food on the menu. I absolutely love it.

Been coming here for years on my visits to the North East and was somewhat surprised to see it had been revamped into an American style diner (sort of, the takeaway part is still a chip shop).

we came here a few days ago we all loved the atmosphere,people and gorgeous food would highly recomend

we came here on sunday there was 8 of us in total to celebrate my brothers birthday.

Went here again today whilst in the area. Good service and good food. Went for the sausage and chips this time and sat upstairs. Good fun and place is very clean and tidy

Popped into the diner this afternoon (Good Friday). Really impressed with the cleanliness of the place and friendly staff. Two of us ordered the small fish and chips special and the other had chicken nuggets. We all enjoyed the food, the fish was particularly nice. Although small in breadth and width (as expected) it was actually quite a chunky piece of cod and contained as much fish as many 'large' fish offered in lots of places. Our chicken fan loved the nuggets too so pleased all round.

My husband and me were just wanting some lunch not really sure what and we stumbled across this lovely gem. The decor reminds us of happy days the tv program. Its wonderfully bright and cheerful and lovely and clean. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We hah cod, cod bites with chips and mushy peas all of which were uber tasty we throughly enjoyed them. We definitely recommend this place.

Lovely fish n chips as usual, if you in Stokesley you got to try fish n chips from here, nice eating in area or go al fresco when weather good, also do nice coffees, nice friendly staff and quick service and good quality food.

on our ride out to stokesly we stopped at the chip shop and got fish and chips twice looked ok but tasted awfull greasy and as if oil they were cooked in was off chips had an odd flavour .fish was very rubbery hard to chew .worst fish and chips we have had only eat a bit of my fish and a few chips then threw them away my partner ate his and they are repeating on him all night said his had a funny taste also will never go again very poor

Under previous long term owners this had become somewhat 'careworn' but food was normally fine. The now not so new owners have given the whole shop and cafe a bright clean look. The fish and chips are good too.

Our second visit here on Sunday. The weather was awful and it was lovely to sit in this immaculate, warm café and eat delicious Fish n Chips and a Burger for the little person. The staff were friendly and it was great value for money. £9 each for the special which was a small Fish, Chips, Mushy Peas, Tartare Sauce, Bread and Butter and a pot of Tea, and £6 for the youngster which was Burger, Chips, Gravy and a drink . We don't go here often as we live no where near Stokesley but this will be our place to go when we do visit Stokesley.

My husband + I had take away chips + a beefburger. I wasn't keen on the chips, they seemed over...

Recently bought some cod and chips from here. Asked for a pineapple ring and she replied "nah I have to...

Hemos visitado el llevar aquí varias veces desde que descubrí que no gluten pescado gratis y patatas fritas.

Tuvimos una gran comida improvisada en el lado del restaurante del "fish and chips". Me encantó la decoración de los 50 americano. Extremadamente limpio y el pescado y las patatas fritas eran deliciosos. Patatas fritas empapadas que odio entrar a menudo, pero estas no eran chippies empapadas. La comida es buena relación calidad-precio, especialmente el especial incluye té, pan y guisantes, la decoración es genial y el personal es amable - muy recomendable.

Un paseo por Stokesley, teniendo en el área de juegos para niños, un niño terminó con hambre. Llamamos por la comida y nos quedamos muy contentos con todo. Personal amable y paciente, como nieta se hizo cargo. Buena selección de comida y menú infantil. No...

Patatas fritas muy limpio el personal muy suaves agradable todo viejo cosas de moda anillos de pescado tortas de piña un problema es la £2 por incluirlo. 50 ¿Qué es esto todo sobre

Pescado y patatas fritas, precioso buen servicio, mucho en el plato, muy buen servicio, un paisaje precioso en la zona ¿qué más se puede pedir, esperamos volver muy pronto.

Excelente pescado y patatas fritas a un precio excelente! La especial del día es un plato formidable sirve, por supuesto, con una olla de té (una perfecta o café! En un cómodo), 'diner' restaurante de estilo. Todo es tan buena para llevar a casa para el té - y hay deliciosos helados para refrescarse en verano.

At least once a month I bring my elderly mother here, and as most people know it's difficult to please the elderly, so when she says it's gorgeous then it definitely is. We travel 15 miles just so she can have her favourite fish & chips & a proper cup of British Tea. The price is reasonable & the staff are loverly with her, they can't do enough & always have time to chat with her & make sure she is warm & comfortable. It's sad to read bad comments about the diner & I think they are wrong & maybe the customer is just having a bad day. This place caters for families of all ages & dietary gluten free needs. Always recommend 100% Mam & Al

Another delicious meal at this most excellent American themed restaurant. I've tried everything on the menu on more than one occasion and the quality is always first class. Had the £9-00 special this time, tea, bread and butter, fish, chips, mushy peas, tartare sauce and joyful service. The haddock and cod is always spot on and perfectly cooked, this evidenced by the fact that the downstairs was full and we had to repair to the large upstairs dining room. We will continue to frequent this excellent establishment.

Well cooked fish and chips, decent portions. Clean and fast service. Much better than the other chip shop in Stokesley, in my opinion.

I have visited here a couple of times and really enjoy the atmosphere and the retro decor.The fish and chips are lovely too.

Lovely batter on fish, light & crispy and huge portions. Served by friendly helpful staff. Price mid way but worth it. The restaurant part decorated in rock & Roll 50's style.Worth a visit.

its not an American diner its a pretty poor chippy with some really expensive hot dogs, the food comes in a cardboard box and the chips looked pale and the fat they are using congeals instantly and is like wax , bloody awfull we all ended up putting them in the bin, avoid this place its a waste of your money

Been to this fish shop a number of times and have never had a bad experience. The food and service I'd however only average with nothing special with either the food or service received.I would recommend for people looking for a quick and easy meal however do not expect anything special.I have also eaten in the diner part of the shop which I do not believe goes with the attached fish shop. The restaurant is set up as an American diner which although it serves some American foods in mostly based around the fish and chips from the take away shop next door? Altogether an average experience.

6 of us turned up an hour before closing on New Years Eve, and were made very welcome. Order was quickly taken, and served in pretty quick time considering it was freshly cooked. It was very tasty, well presented, with adequate portions. It was spotlessly clean, and I would definitely return. HAPPY NEW YEAR and best wishes for a successful 2017.

Had a lovely fish and chip lunch in Stokesley attended by pleasant staff in spotlessly clean surroundings. The chips were some of the best I had ever tasted too. It was an impulse visit so especially rewarding. Well done to the new owners and staff.

We have tried this place on a couple of occasions It's got an American diner feel but serves proper fish and chipsGood quality freshly cooked food which means you need to wait a little while whilst it's cooked, worth the wait I say! Good sized portions as well.Friendly staff so what more could you want?

This fish & chip shop has seen much change over the last couple of years & now enjoys a sit down cafe side, try their spam fritters

We revisited this great fish and chip diner as we had chance whilst holidaying up here again. In the two years since we last ate here it has remained of very good standard and service was just as excellent. Its clean, affordable and serves lovely fish and chips. We ate in the downstairs restaurant there is another upstairs area so offers plenty of seating. We ordered cod, chips and peas with a pot of tea and its was very good. Our waitress was excellent a young lady from Staindrop who was very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed and the service was efficient. Our pot of tea was good quality and our food superb. The fish was coated in a very nice crisp batter and chunky white proper fish. Chips golden and cooked to perfection. Mushy peas superb and tasty. Prices are very good and they also do specials and seniors rates.The takeaway service was busy which proves this is well worth a visit. The restaurant has some great American diner memorabilia which is the theme throughout . with a photo of the owners pink Cadillac on the wall. A lot of thought has been put into offering a cool, slick and different fish and chip shop which also retains the quality of the good old chippie we all love. Well done to the owner, our wonderful waitress and for continuing to maintain this great Fish and Chip shop. Many thanks and hope to call again next time we are on holiday in the area, Rita & Graham from Lincolnshire.

having previously visited this shop some time ago and found the fish and chips very poor, i have re visited it today and what a great improvement on last time, the fish was a good size and well cooked and the chips were fresh and tasty will certainly return

Had a lovely cod and chips from here.....only fault it's in a box but that seems to be the norm these days, very good crispy fish and nice chips, they have good eaten in areas, well worth a visit to Stokesley just to try these fish n chips, friendly staff, clean environment and 5 star rating with Food Standards Agency, very good all round place.

The place looks quite shabby from the outside but don't be fooled by this as the fish and chips are really really nice.The cod is really tasty, it's white and plentiful perfectly cooked. The chips are nice and fluffy and are plentiful. It's lovely to get them to take away and eat them as you are strolling around this beautiful small town.

Me and my partner had a drive out on Saturday and we ended up having a walk around stokesley. Lovely little village with the most amazing fish shop/American diner..we could not fault the food.we will definitely be going back..the only downside was it was a lot more expensive to eat in the diner than the takeaway even though the food comes from the same fryers. .if prices were a bit more reasonable we wud of sat in to eat our food

An unassuming facade, but the fish & chips were gorgeous. The batter light and tasty, and the fish moist and well cooked. We had a meal deal, fish, chips, peas B&B and a drink £9.99......very filling.

Open late enough on Sunday for us out of sync Londoners. Generous portions. Lovely fresh fish. Chips great. Especially the American chip spice. Love the diner feel.

Top quality food in a traditional American 1950s style diner. Friendly staff. Fish and chips fried to order and competitive prices. All in a beautiful English marketplace. What a surprise!

Hired these guys for the evening of our daughters barn wedding. They arrived promptly in a lovely catering unit.The fish was delicious and huge !!! The chips were out of this world and the mushy peas are now legendary. One hard to please relative said they are the best he's ever tasted. I wouldn't hesitate to book again. Janet was super helpful and communication was spot on. Eat there or book them for your function, you will not be disappointed. Thank you guys you were spot on .

Called in early today, 24 July, for a sit stop on morning ride. The out side does not do the inside justice!! What a surprise on entering, very clean and fresh with an American Diner theme. Found the lovely lady owner who was friendly and welcoming, she engaged in conversation with us! Orders taken and 5 minutes later fresh coffee delivered to our table outside in the sun, served with a genuine smile!!Once we had paid we were wished well on the rest of our journey!Will definitely call in next time to sample the food as well as the coffee! Great find and I recommend this place to all.

having called in during a ride out on my bike , i must say the quality of my fish and chips was very poor. the chips were bland and tasted like rubber despite lashings of salt and vinegar, the fish was very greasy and all batter, not as i remember this shop many years ago , the decor looks great and very inviting but that means nothing if the food is poor, may be a one off so will try the place again in the near future, hopefully it will be a better experience .

What can I say, the fish is fresh and the service is great - very honest place, and an American diner to the die
