Youngs Other Plaice in Tendring

Great fish v good chips, portion size about spot on

Not bad. Chips were ok, about 7 out of 10. Fish was cooked well but the batter was very average flat, thick and a little soggy. Price wise, it's cheaper than some considering the scare stories going about at the moment. Return visit. Top marks, crispy fluffy chips and crunchy batter. Beautiful.

This is clearly the best place in town as the queue was around the corner (but moved fast). Everything was cooked fresh and tasted great!

Just finished a very tasty meal

False advertising, wanted gluten free fish and chips as stated all over Google only to get there and fish and chips to only be made on Fridays! Very disappointing. Replying to your comment below, no I definitely did not get mixed up with pier one as after finding that you only accommodate for coeliacs on Fridays we went to pier one and were served the nicest gluten free fish and chips! Served everyday! Maybe better advertising of gf on Fridays needed to avoid time!

First class fresh cooked fish and chips

Tiny serve of chips. Some of the worst I’ve had in the UK. Tasted like they were cooked in old oil and were soggy straight after leaving the store. Curry sauce tasted ok but was expensive. Service was ok.

We have travelled from Maldon to Frinton on a regular basis over many years, solely to enjoy the outstanding haddock & chips from Young's Other Plaice. Believe me when I say this is the best fish & chips anywhere in Essex. The quality is truly excellent and has been so for as long as I can remember. Next time you are near Frinton, pay them a visit. When you do, you will go back time and time again.

Nice local chippy, great people, enjoyed the curry sauce very much!!

Had takeaway nice fish loads of chips freshly cooked.

Quick and friendly service, large plate of good food, reasonably priced. Faultless.

Truly top-tier fish and chips that you’ll struggle to beat. Always super friendly and helpful, and not shy to drop their prices when they can.

Worst fish and chips ever, fish extremely over cooked, just batter left and chops tasted of the cardboard box they were served in really awful, never again!

Yummy, Yummy Fish and Chips. Staff always friendly. You can't beat a good chip shop and these have been delivering great fish and chips for years.

I went here on Monday and bought fish chips x 2 the fish was terrible batter soggy and fish bitty and price was expensive we go here regular but not any more only thing l can say is chips were nice.

Been here a few times and food was great however on our most recent visit the potion size was very disappointing. The cod portion was small and wafer thin Side dishes are very expensive

I’ve been here with my wife and five years old son on Sunday the 8th of October 2023 and I can only say that, fish and chips here are absolutely delicious and the service was amazing. They have kids menu too. Definitely will be returning whenever we go to the Frinton Beach again! Highly recommended! We had haddock and chips! Note: they were people enjoying their fish and chips at the outside table so I only photograph the firmament!

We live in baldock and went for a day out in the seaside. Our favourite place to takeaway fish n chips is this plaice. Highly recomend the fresh fish n chips for a fussy eater they're 10 out of 10

Excellent fish & Chippy, friendly staff, good prices. Chips and saveloy we're really good

came last night as used before but not for some time. i will be very honest. firstly the young lad who served me was fantastic and had a terrific sense of humour for such a young person and was very engaging with banter which to be fair how expensive it was but all with a smile and a cheeky grin the food was cooked fresh and i don't normally have cod as not a lover of fish being over battered. the fish was perfectly cooked my only comment was that large here seems to come up medium, however it was fantastic and being a typical male had to have curry sauce which was 100%. if the fish was bigger its an easy 5 star. i have read other comments on the chips which i didn't understand. and if you prefer an over battered fish just ask they all seem friendly enough I'm sure wouldn't be to much trouble. would i use again yes every time

Had the cod and chips takeaway they were lovely and good value for money. The staff were friendly aswell.

Great local chippy - always tasty

I have not been to Young’s for a while but really fancied it! I went a 6pm which should be a good time for freshly cooked chips - but was a bit disappointed with the mix of soggy and really hard chips - a very small portion @ £3! They should also do away with the polystyrene trays as they can’t be recycled!

I'm actually shocked although the chips were spot on. 20p extra for batter on the sausage when there is no batter. Its non existent. Then, as a delivery driver on the go asked for my chips and kind of battered sausage to be in a box to be told it's extra for a box. Come on. That's shocking, and the fact you can't put your own salt and vinegar. And there is a spiciness about the sausage and batter. Sorry but its a no from me.

Have been going to this Frinton fish restaurant for years and have always looked forward to a tasty meal, but this time, even though I had ordered two large portions of cod and chips, the cod portions were so thin, only around 7mm thick and overcooked, very disappointing as they did the best fish and chips in the area !

Purchased 2, haddock and chips on 6/09/23. Fish greasy like undercooked or the oil wasn't hot enough. Chips mediocre, some almost raw. But both lacking flavour

Polite and friendly staff, food was lovely

Great food ,feel it's a bit overpriced but saying that the food is good and worth visiting again

Excellent fish and chips, freshly cooked while you waited.

Had to wait for the food but I don’t mind, fresh takes time. When it arrived in the box, the fish was excellent and the chips so much better than where I get mine at home. The cost of f and c has gone up so much but I don’t mind paying for it when it’s this good. I’d definitely go back.

Not the best. Chips were heavily fried to the point just tasted fat. Don’t order haddock, an average for taste, but small portion.

Had a lovely tasty F&C after a day at the beach. All cooked fresh 😋. Staff friendly & served quick as they could, as very busy which is good sign. Missing a trick not doing kids' meals. Cans of drink a bit pricey.

I buy fish and chips from this shop regularly. But despite advertising the offer they always refuse to give it. It wasn’t even closing time. I normally visit them around lunch time.

Nice to see a ih and chip shop in Frinton... Thought they were banned lol. (local joke) Nice service and quick. £3 for a medium chips, good for one person. One starbdown as the chips needed another minute to bring up the outer edge as they were a little soft. Good taste though, just no crunch not wet or full of grease though.

Passing shop.Stopped for fish& chips . Waiting for to long. Staff were constantly moaning about 2 people from our party who were sitting at the table outside.( they were only waiting for them to catch the fish and cook it. ) it was rude. We got the food half the chips was crackle and to hard to eat. The fish was dry. The curry sauce was edible. And expensive. Do not mind paying if decent. Took chips back as I was disappointed and disgusted. I unfortunately lost my temper as the staff were so jumped up.Not a nice place. There are much better places to eat fish & chips with really nice staff. If passing through AVOID. AVOID. GAVE ONE STAR AS HAD TO. BUT WOULD GIVE NONE IF I COULD.

I had chicken which was a bit dry, should have had the fish that looked great, would have liked to see the salad on the board for takeaway, everything was freshly cooked.

Got to say, decent fish n chips taste wise, but the large cod they serve is equivalent to a Medium everywhere else. And for what they charge, just doesn't fill you up. Also, if you ask for anything else on the side, i get the impression you're asking for the world from the Lady front of house. Some customer skills & a half smile go a long way imo.

Delicious food, very nice service- Well done Definitely a place worth recommending.

Good chip shop. Good fish and chips. No complaints.

Was there on Saturday, excellent and proper chips, yummy cod. Great service

Extremely disappointed. Cod and chips twice. We ate it all and it was ok but the batter was strange. It was not 'crispy'. As i use the wet fish shop and find it excellent i was expecting better. I only came here because i was going to the fish shop. The chips tbf were lovely.

As a fast food is not bad. But for the price £9.50, and wanted ketchup and mayonnaise, I have been told to pay 25p. extra for each K and Mayo=50p. Must include at least one of each per box.

To be fair, we ordered just before closing and the food was not only delicious but piping hot and ready for us when we came to collect within ten minutes on a Friday night. No complaints from the staff given how close we were to closing time either. Definitely worth a visit

What a fantastic place. Lovely people and the food , freshly cooked to your order and tastes amazing.

yummy food! great idea with the tofish!

Tasted better than it looks 😋literally cooked to order takeaway fish and chips. Was hit fresh and tasty.

A most reliable chippy that is highly regarded.

We use this chip shop whenever we visit Frinton. Good quality food at reasonable prices.

A great chippy. Food was a little delayed being served but the assistants were friendly and working hard; there were plenty of food orders and we were there around 6pm so in the middle of the teatime rush. Fish freshly cooked. Chip portions not huge though; a large didn't go far for an adult and two children - which does usually at other places. All-in-all, would return.

Portions a little on the small side but pretty good.

Very expensive cod and chips (£9.40 each) considering the very thin shape of the battered fish, which was even thinner at the edges. Service was slow with several take away customers being served before we were as “eating in”. Final bill came to £30 after adding in 2 cans, a pickled onion and one portion of mushy peas.

Perfectly cooked cod and chips, not much room for seating but not a lot the owners can change about that. Well worth a visit when in Frinton.

As a first fish and chip experience, I couldn't have asked for a better place to have it. The nice guy behind the counter helped this weary foreigner navigate the trecherous waters of fine English dining

Nice and clean premises but very disappointing on size of fish portion for a seaside town.

Our go to spot for the best F & C! Love it every time! Special mention for the curry sauce 😋

There are table and chairs outside, but you’re told you have to have table service. We did….. but the food was terrible, very dry and tasteless. Extortionate price for wanting to sit outside. Be mindful if you go with a family NOT to sit outside as it will cost you a fortune. Waitress staff were very pleasant, but food and prices are terrible, A real shame for a family that would like to seat themselves outside as they won’t allow you to buy the takeaway prices and sit and eat, they con you into having table service. Food was rubbish.

3 stars for the chips -none for the fish- tiny piece flat dry and had to scrape from the skin -the cat gets better !

We always get chips to take home, and they are always great. Thank you Youngs

Great Value Fish and Chips. Fish is ALWAYS cooked fresh when you order. Brilliant selection of Menu Items, even sell Onion Vinegar! Great Staff, very friendly, and very clean. an Asset to our little town.

Lovely dinner,quick service even though they were really busy. Good value for money.

Excellent fish and chips, always freshly cooked, at a very reasonable price compared to other shops

Heated up old chips from day time and sausage in batter with no batter and looked tuff as old boots didn’t even try it fish in batter well batter was soggy on paper why isn’t batter like it used to be now doesn’t even have any on

If you had to drive 100 miles to the dish bar its worth it,just had super pieces of Rock for lunch superb

Chips were like a blob with mash potatoes as chips all broken up! Couldn’t even pick up with fingers and all 4 portions were the same 😩

Nice place good food quick service

Great F&C! We have been here before and will be back. Attention to detail includes putting chips in layers and salt and vinigering each layer so seasoned right through!

Excellent food and very friendly helpful staff 😄

Great fish and chips. In my opinion the best in Frinton by far. Always cooked to order - they are well cooked and fresh. Staff are friendly and efficient.

Good portions - although could do with some healthy options on the menu to go with the chips

Great little chippy behind the infamous Gates of Frinton! Reasonably priced, amazing food and great service. Well worth a visit if you're in or around the area!

We got our meal and ate in a small square outside the shop. Always quick and friendly service. Recommend for take away mostly. There is gluten free option. Well done.

What an incredible service from the team today. We had a big family outing (50+) and had called 4 shops in an attempt to organise food. The team here were incredible, the food was all cooked fresh and was piping hot when we came to collect. It was boxed and labelled individually and by family group - nothing was too much trouble and served with a smile. Thank you for making our day amazing

Fish and chips were all freshly cooked. Portion size and quality were good. Staff very friendly.

Ordered haddock and chips, cooked to order, really lovely and good sized portions

Cod and chips was lovely, fish freshly cooked. Will visit again when in the area.

Fair priced fish and chip shop with decent quality food

Food was pretty good, better than the attitude of the staff when my daughter went back in to collect the drink that she wasn't given, it was slammed on the counter and the server just turned her back on her, nice food shocking customer service

Chips stuck to paper and were tasteless never had a decent takeaway from them family chucked most away even kids wouldn't eat them

This place was super busy and very reasonably priced

Great fish and chips. Fantastic in taste and good portion size. Definitely recommend to try it.

Friendly, efficient service. Decent fish and chips.

Best in the area for take away!

Excellent quality fish and chips

Excellent Cod & Chips. We sat at one of the outside tables and were served by pleasant staff. I would definitely recommend this establishment.

We had a takeaway. Excellent food and service. Highly recommended.We will certainly revisit as we visit Frinton regularly.

Good plaice for fish and chips. ;). Very popular and busy so be prepared to wait. Enjoyed them looking across the sea.

The best fish and chips in Essex.

Seaside chips for tea after a day at the beach. Perfect. Bit of a wait but worth it. The large portion best me.

Great portions. Like their system for cycling ur name on orders (Graeme)

Very tasty saveloy and chips, not the cheapest but in my opinion, worth every penny

Staff are very friendly Food is very nice

Very good fish and chips. Bit of a wait as it was very busy but worth it.

Excellent fish & chips..Light batter..Good chips too!

One of the best fish and chips I've tasted.

Good fish and chips. Quick service

Really excellent. They were busy but service was fast and friendly. The fish batter was great staying crispy until we ate 15 mins after ordering. Really enjoyed it!!

Regularly come here for chips & curry sauce, always fresh & hot. Can request extra salt & vinegar too, a must (for us)!

During a visit to Frinton on Sea we fancied fish and chips. Found this place by searching on Google and it provided just what we needed. Can recommend them.

Expensive for a fish and chips on the corner. The fish and chips was OK 👍🏼

Very reasonable and very clean place
