Wetherby Whaler in Leeds

Fish and chips were amazing as well as the atmosphere and staff. Shoutout to Rosella who served us, incredibly friendly and accommodating.

Fish and Chips are lovely hot tasty and good you get alot for your money and if you've space for a pudding highly recommended banana split or trifle. Piano playing in the background. Clean and tidy

Always great food you can order your fish and chips in advance using the app or the website. My wife likes fish and chips fried oil so we do this in advance staff always really friendly quick service good food.

Fish n chips. What else.can you say. Beautiful interior. Seniors special is a great price

Good fish and chips and pot of tea.

Was quiet Monday evening tea time. Staff attentive as always. Never disappoints.

Great place for fish and chips (no pun intended, usually haddock). Visiting Northern family my son's first visit who thought it was amazing... chandeliers and live pianist (grand piano). Excellent crispy fish batter and decent chips. Good friendly service too. Not cheap but worth it now and then.

You might be able to find fish and chips as good as Wetherby Whaler, but you won't find better.

Lovely fish and chips staff brilliant friendly service with a smile

I asked for a fish butty and was given a fish and a bread roll in a plastic bag. It was buttered and fresh but not really the fish butty that I had asked for. I mentioned it to the person who served me to be told. "That's just how we do it " Batter wasn't nice and I will not be going again.

we are French and like every time we visit our friends in Menston we take the time to come and treat ourselves to the best fish and chips in the region 😉👍

Was alright. Atmosphere was good

Perfect if you on halal diet. Guiseley only branch local to bradford that has option do your fish n chips in vegetable oil.

I used to come here for my birthday when it was Harry Ramsdens. Really pleased to see the Wetherby Whaler had kept the atmosphere and traditions going. Opted for the whale 🐋 size fish. It was delicious, well cooked and served with a generous portion of chips and a small dish of beans. I will certainly be returning.

A very good meal could not fault it

Saturday Night Takeaway fish and chips never tasted so good!

The staff and food are amazing , Georges chips were fluffy inside and martins lightly batter fish were a hole in one , loved it thank you

We have eaten in the restaurant and used the takeaway several times. The fish in particular is consistently good quality and portions are a decent size. Always enjoyable

It was flat cold and the fish was hard. Big mistake I won’t be making again .

Ordered takeaway the app. Arrived on time and after a little wait received my order. Friendly service and a solid option for fish & chips.

Lovely crispy batter, succulent fish, hot chips.good size

Nice size for lunch, great piece of haddock, batter crispy and delicious and chips are fab

Horrible fish & chips . Slimy fish with a soggy batter . Wish I’d stuck to my normal at murgatroyds . At least my dog enjoyed them .

We visited last night and were greeted by a lovely lady called Rossella. She was absolutely the best part of our night as she was super attentive to our little boy and nothing was too much trouble. The meal was also really tasty! 😊

Must have been end of a busy shift but customer service lacking. We have visited a number of fish and chip restaurants ! in the area, and found it hard to find a place where both the fish and chips were both cooked properly i.e it is either the fish which was okay and chips poor or vice versa. This place is no exception .Having reeled back in horror at the restaurant prices we decided to go for slightly cheaper takeaway. The fish inside the batter was small and the chips were cold (and way too many chip ends ). The server was surly in his demeanour . Very average .

Ordered at approximately 16.40. The app said it’d be ready for 17.00. I waited for the app to say Ready to collect, I informed the staff member. They hadn’t started preparing the order. I had to wait another 15 minutes. Absolutely pointless ordering online, ready to collect. Everyone who came in got their order before the online orders. No apology of it being Kate. What a waste of time.

excellent quality, highly recommended

Best fish and chips in the area. Beautifully lighlty battered.

Always good.place is beautiful. Try it doubt you will be disappointed.

Fish and chips party hosted by the birthday boy himself, a young 75 year old friend. I opted for the battered plaice, and it was so good!

Piano was annoying and fish overcooked

All ways good service and fish and chips tea bread and butter. What more do you need

We to Mum out for her birthday lunch. Wetherby Whaler is her favourite place.

Wasn't the best Fish and chips, felt they were cooked in the oven not in a fryer, both my kids didn't eat their chips, kids not eating chips!!!

food was hot when it arrived. I enjoyed it very much. everything I ordered was delivered

Excellent food, service, atmosphere and value. Highly recommended.

Never delivered to me so the delivery should be refunded not just the food. Caused issues having taken insulin

Just had a family deal for tea. Very tight with the chips

Driver was polite and friendly, he needed code number which I could not seem to get up, and never needed it before on deliveries, but good service.

Undoubtedly the best fish and chips EVER! A guy playing the piano. Crystal chandeliers. What more could you want?

Took over an hour to deliver, then when arrived. All the food was cold. Won't be ordering again from them.

Was disappointed with my meal today.normally we love going.but today was a disappointment.the fish was floating in Water and oil.chops were cold.peas were really stodgy.onion rings were brill.so was the soup.shame we go a lot ..

Came across this place out of luck. Amazing fish and chips at a very reasonable price. Place was nice as well and staff were friendly enough. Would return again if I'm ever in the area.

Another enjoyable dining experience.

Very enjoyable experience. Good service, friendly staff, good value. Fish & chips first rate. Great ambience harking back to the great days of Harry Ramsdens.

Lovely place to eat. Poor customer service

Excellent service and delicious food

We get a similar order each week from wetherby whaler. This week the food was not hot, just warm. Not great. According to app, food was ready well before driver at restaurant. This seems to be a developing trend. Perhaps not enough drivers or drivers and restaurant don’t seem to want to work together. Disappointed

Our waitress was very helpful and attentive during Friday evening service. We also had a pianist playing lovely music while we enjoyed our fish n chips and scampi.

The best fish chips in the UK. Excellent fish and perfect breading. Excellent service thanks also to the Italian Rossella with whom we chatted pleasantly. I will recommend it to anyone who is in the area. Compliments!

The food was just chucked at us. They lady didn't bother asking if we need cutlery or sauces. She didn't even bother asking if we want salt and vinger. I had to ask her if she put salt and vinger on whilst she was talking to her friend. I had to take my food out of the bags awkwardly and get some salt and vinger on my fish and chips. I have seen that she has asked all other other customers if they needed cutlery and sauces and she had put salt and vinger on for them her self. I'm just thinking is it the fact that i was the only one wearing a hijab. It was just really cold service. Never going there again. First and last time. The food wasn't event that great. But the sprinkles of racism mad it worse.

lovely and hot. Really enjoyed the fish and scallops really can't complain

Was hard at work in the sun and I could think of nothing better than some fish and chips so had to make the trip whilst I was in the area. Went and got myself the standard Fish and Chips with curry sauce which I can’t lie was even better eating outside in the sun, literally have no complaint and will definitely be back🤤

Lovely staff had fish and chips in the restaurant batter could have been crispir massive disappointment

Tasty, but needs option to add salt/vinegar/other condiments. None offered at check-out and none in bag. We were away from home so didn’t have any.

Great food, well prepared and quick service

Man on till taking orders was efficient and friendly. While the fish itself was delicious , the Batter was far too greasy, and chips were cold ,

I've had takeout fish and chips from here a few times now and it's probably the best fish and chips I've had at a reasonable price. I highly recommend.

Great food,service could have been a little better but the ambience was delightful mainly because of the gentleman who was playing the piano.

Best fish and chips around love it

Good food and service, but I've had better

I've been a regular customer of this restaurant for years and find the service to be consistently friendly, the food to be of good quality and the environment to be lovely. Particularly when the piano player is on some evenings. The portions are definitely not huge and the prices sure have jumped in recent years but I appreciate the costs of running a restaurant such as this aren't exactly low. Well worth a visit as a treat.

very enjoyable food nice and warm

Measly portion, could see bottom.of box. Fish very small too

I think the portion sizes have shrunk due to what I think are smaller plates

I don't know what happened last Wednesday but the chips were terrible, fish was nice but like I say the chips were not up to scratch

Travelled 21,435km to come here for fish, chips and curry sauce. Simply, no better place to go on the planet. I'd recommend the early evening sittings on the weekend when the pianist is playing.

Poor fish with strange thick batter .Dirty outside needs a good clean up benches need replacing or painting

always good food... great staff ..... fast service

Chips wormed up to many times The batter on fish was thick and running in oil the fish inside was ok. But overall bad will not eat there no more

Delicious food and very accommodating for my daughter who was recently diagnosed as coeliac. Super friendly staff, would 100% recommend.

Excellent fish and chips, spacious restaurant and good service.

I been there once, food is fresh and yummy,

food was nice and hot. Very enjoyable

Was just reading the reviews. A person just put that they are using beef dripping and not vegetable oil. I'm a nutritionist and it's my job to know about oils and fats. Beef dripping is incredibly good for you, it's the vegetable oils that are EXTREMELY bad for you!. Seed oils which is vegetable oil is the problem with a lot of peoples health!!!! It's the extraction (using solvents etc) process they use to de-gummy the oils and fats after they have been extracted (as they are gel like). Maybe you should do your home work before posting an awful scathing review like that. Fool!

These people appear to think that customers should earn the respect of Weatherby Whaler rather than vice versa. They don't offer frying in healthy vegetable oil, instead they fry in so called beef dripping which is seriously unhealthy. The "beef dripping belt" runs from approx Sheffield to Newcastle and it is where all the UK slaughterhouses dispose of their unwanted (by the rest of the country) and abominable slurry of mixed pig fat, sheep fat and cow fat.

Always, at each Wetherby Whaler we have visited, an enjoyable experience. Here the pianist was in full flow.

Hi chips were ok , but not sure why the fish batter is crispy but saturated in grease . The batter had soaked up the grease . It was made fresh but the batter was like it had been reheated . Don’t mind paying . But cmon guys sort out your fish

Lovely food, but unfortunately arrived cold

Ordered a take out to eat out and not great to be honest. The batter was very heavy , greasy and the chips dry . Could see the grease bits on the paper box not nice at all.

the dish and chips were piping hot really tasty. just bag of scraps missing but not a problem as there was so many chips couldn't eat everything. Really enjoyable will order from them again

The first time eating, the food was delicious. Two varieties of curry sauce to choose from, very tasty. The restaurant was spacious, nice decor and .echo...staff seemed to disperse once you had eaten. Order at the table, pay at the table? We paid at the desk. Waited too long. Would I go again. Yes. Good food. Good price. 👍

Food always good Staff always friendly

Not as good has Harry Ramsdens used to be, avarage at best no frills chippy.

Just called in for gluten free fish & chips , no problem getting it, nice staff decent chippy

The takeaway does not have vegetarian dishes, other than chips and peas.

my order arrived in good time nice and warm thoroughly enjoyed it.

I can not say that the food really impressed me here. Was my 1st time, and I am sorry to say it will be my last. Im not sure what the fish was covered in, but it was not tasty. Other places I have been the batter is light and crunchy as if not attached to the fish. Here it was flat and greasy, like it was stuck to the fish. I wish I had taken a picture but definitely won't be back.

A mecca for Fish and Chip officionados

Really tasty fish and chips. Good atmosphere friendly staff, Quick service. Loved the piano playing n the background. A good experience 🏆😀

Fabulous, took brother for 80th birthday really enjoyed it

not happy, soggy batter, cold limp chips.

I hadn't been to this restaurant since it was Harry Ramsdens which tells you how long that was. The food was great, the service was really nice and it was a really enjoyable meal out. Thank you.

The staff is very rude and miserable Fish was soaked with oil

Excellent, superb Fish and Chips, Good service

Delicious haddock, scampi. Loved the curry sauce. Mushy peas is also good.

Had a warm welcome for Mother’s Day. Tasty and delicious meal and service with a smile .With a lovely gesture of a bunch of daffodils for us three ladies.

Had a lovely mothers day treat ,was given a complimentary bunch of daffodils before we left. Even through it was busy ,the staff were very efficient. Food ,atmosphere, service 10/10

Very nice place and very nice staff they can't do enough for you

Between the pianist and the fish it was a good afternoon.
