The fish & chips we had from Westmorland Fisheries was outstanding. The size & quality of the fish was amazing. The way the fish was cooked was excellent. We will definitely be going back here.

The fish n chips were good, probably the best in Skipton, but the wait was very long, (30mins to get served) everyone stood outside in freezing temperatures while no one was serving as they were obviously waiting for food to be cooked. Staff friendly but far to busy chatting to their mates to get round to asking customers who wanted fish (which is cooked to order) despite ordering a battered sausage the request was ignored initially, so by the time I’d got to the front of the queue had to stand for over 5 minutes waiting again? Needs to be much slicker, though good food all the same and still blows Bizzie Lizzie’s out of the water

We are visiting Skipton and wanted to try some legendary northern fish & chips! We went to Westmoreland Fisheries and had the best fish dinner for a very long time! The haddock was perfectly cooked, the scampi was large and plentiful! This is definitely worth checking out if your anywhere near Skipton!

We came back today on a day trip from Carlisle and glad to report it was just as fabulous as it was when we did something similar a few years ago. The fish, a huge piece of delicious haddock, was moist and tasty and the batter was light and crispy. The chips were spot on. Friendly staff and keenly priced. What more do you need? We’ll done guys, you run a first rate chippy!

Wow.. The fish is served in its own separate fold over box, some 14 / 16 inches long.. As in order a half portion of chips and also a few scraps. This means the serving lad or lass needs to grab another portion box to sell me my chips in as the fish coffin is already stuffed with the haddock. Always takes me two proper sit down pig out feasts to get through my one (half chips!) Order. There are corporate options for chips in Skipton but in my opinion they come nowhere near. Cooked in proper lard, always clean and fresh. Very grateful new owner didn't drop the ball. Thank you Westmoreland Street fisheries. Bob

Blessed to have this chippy close enough to be able to get them home whilst still piping hot. 2 minutes to boil the kettle and microwave a few beans and one is "game on" for a superb piece of our national heritage. Only 2 streets away from where Monty Python filmed the classic "Every sperm is sacred" song with Michael Palin dancing through the back yards and cobbled streets with his dozens of brats. Just thought id add a little colour to my review ;-) These fish and chips are so much tastier than the more obviously located, semi-corporate fish and chip emporiums in town whose quality of fish, spuds or batter are all inferior to Westmoreland street. I was worried when the previous owndmer sold up after decades of being wonderful ~ however the new owners and staff must have also enjoyed the previous offerings because they have only improved on what came before. Theyre not selling dandelion and burdock any longer from the drinks fridge. I'm told the mushy peas are the best, not something I enjoy ever so cannot offer my own opinion on them.

You get a friendly welcome at Westmoreland Street chippy, the shop is clean and prices are clearly displayed. The staff are friendly and the portions of food are generous. There’s just one thing missing quality, the batter is sometimes undercooked and makes for a soggy greasy piece of fish and I prefer properly cooked crispy batter.

Forget the chip shops in the centre of Skipton this shop is the best by far. It’s a 3 minute walk from the high st just past the Plaza cinema. Friendly service. Very clean. The food is very tasty. It’s always busy. Check the opening times as it’s not like the shops in the centre. They don’t open all day everyday.

I have used this fish and chip shop whenever I’m ‘Up North’ and was anxious that the quality might have changed as I’d heard there was a change of ownership. I needn’t have worried. The batter was still the famous bubbly and crisp kind that Southerners just don’t seem able to replicate. The haddock within was perfectly cooked. My only comment would be that they need bigger take away boxes as the very generous portion of fish ( regular not a special )is larger than the container so was a little squashed by the time I got home. Chips were good too - liked that you can get a half portion. Thoroughly recommend.

Unfortunately this business has changed hands within the last six weeks and in my opinion it wasn’t as good as the previous owners. Before, the food was really hot, now it’s not, our chips looked dry and were not particularly hot, the mushy peas were very thick. I thought the new owner could have been dressed smarter, he looked scruffy. We have been going for years as it was always the best chippy anywhere and ate our fish and chips in the car, but sorry, but we will not be going again.

I used to work close to Westmoreland Fisheries and consequently visited quite often. Their portions were generous and always without exception cooked to perfection. I've just visited again to find the owners have now retired (far too young I might add!) and there's a new team in place. I was delighted to find that the standards have been maintained, and it's still up there with the best around! Giant portion sizes, perfectly cooked - and mushy peas to die for! This is now back on my culinary map, despite not working in the town any more.

When I got home and opened up my evening meal I was suprised at the size and quality of the fish and the cake was just as good.I can only say that this fish and chip shop should be given a Michelin star at least, and I hope that people reading my review will try it for themselves.

Visited this shop on Saturday lunchtime having read reviews and been disappointed by one of the larger outlets in Skipton previously. Two large haddocks and chips ordered and was very pleased we'd taken the time to visit. Good quality fish, nicely cooked in dark batter and chips were similarly well cooked and not greasy. Decent size breadcake and all very competitively priced.Friendly and attentive service and given the shop is around five minutes walk from the bus station,we'd heartily recommend it to anyone.

By far the best fish and chip shop in the area. The queue outside isn't coincidence and the efficient service means you won't have to wait long. The fish is always large and cooked well with delicious batter. The chips are less fatty than you get in a lot of other places and the portion size enough to satisfy everyone.

It is well worth finding out this establishment 10 minutes walk from the High Street. It serves excellent fish and chips.
