Yorkshire Fisheries Reviews Summary

Food Quality

Pros:

• "True value for money and top quality fish and chips!!!"
• "The fish can only be described as amazing and both the fish and chips are cooked to perfection."
• "Genuinely the nicest fish and chips that I’ve ever had. Beautifully cooked fish and great quality."
• "Cooked fresh on order the fish was so fresh with a perfect batter not greasy and well seasoned."
• "The fish was perfectly battered, not greasy at all and super flakey fresh."
• "One of the best fish and chips I have ever had. We tried both Cod and Haddock and both fishes are fresh, sweet and delicious."
• "The best fish and chips I've ever eaten."

Cons:

• "OK I know this seems odd, but I've lost my taste due to Covid and the fish and chips I used to love is like chewing on a plastic bag."
• "Surely this can't be the best Blackpool has to offer."
• "Went to the Yorkshire fisheries when we went to Blackpool have to say awful what happened to the chips they were white they looked undercooked."
• "But the chips, I don't recommend at all. taste strange and awful..."
• "Definately not value for the £7 I forked out for it and I know loads of chippys in Blackpool that are much better."
• "Really disappointed considering the reviews, we were so looking forward to trying them... the fish was dry and batter poor... Overly crispy.. flat as a pancake so didn't look natural and was just poor batter over dry fish."
• "Very disappointing. Way too much salt to the point that's all I could taste and the haddock I believe was somewhere inside the batter, but was very hard to find. On top of that, very greasy."

Service

Pros:

• "The staff were also very friendly!"
• "The team are friendly, helpful and all round excellent."
• "The service was great and the staff were so friendly."
• "The staff are friendly, efficient and quick service."
• "The staff were instantly on my table as soon as I raised my hand and they were very courteous."
• "When we got a table, the staff were an absolute delight."
• "The staff in this establishment make the atmosphere very welcoming. They are very polite and go out of their way to make sure that your visit is one to remember."

Cons:

• "At one point, there were 5 servers who stood watching the dining room, and it wasn't overly busy. Felt a little uncomfortable."
• "This could have been a 5 star review but is a mixed review as although the fish and chips were great the service was a bit disappointing."
• "One of my friends, Kath wasn't happy with her meal as she said it was cold!"
• "I personally felt a bit rushed."
• "The only downside was the toilets- up steep stairs so not disabled friendly."
• "One problem toilets upstairs and difficult for those with mobility problems."
• "The toilet had some very infuriating design choices like a cubical that you can peek in and the narrow corridor going to the toilet."

Value

Pros:

• "Had one regular cod and chips and a child's fish and chips which was great value for the price."
• "Perfect chips & mushy peas for me."
• "Food was fantastic and reasonably priced."
• "Very reasonable for a family of 5!"
• "The Food just added the icing on the cake, best I've had in decades and fairly priced for a holiday resort."
• "Good portion sizes and well worth the money."
• "Price wise also really good and worth it."

Cons:

• "Lovely food and amazingly friendly staff. Only downfall was the fact that it is quite expensive."
• "Only negative was I ordered a can of Coke (£1.75) but was served a bottle - however there was no mention that it was going to cost £2.75."
• "I have knocked 1 star off purely because I had ordered a normal Cod and chips at approximately £10 and an Xl Cod and chips at approximately £18 and for the life of the 2 of us could not tell the 2 fish apart."
• "Small piece of fish for the price."
• "I would say that it is slightly pricier than some other places that I have been to but they don't compromise on quality like the other places, which leaves you satisfied."
• "So definitely worth a visit but would be hesitant to order the Xl portions."
• "One complaint, if I ask for a battered sausage, I don't expect a cooked sausage dipped in after and refried...I want it cooked properly from fresh."

Cleanliness

Pros:

• "The place was clean and the staff were all very friendly."
• "Inside decor is basic but looks clean."
• "We sat in the dining area which was lovely and clean."
• "Lots of seating inside and very clean and easily accessible for all."
• "Lovely atmosphere, very clean and tidy."
• "The place was spotlessly clean (they even clean the skirting boards)."
• "The restaurant was very clean and all covid measures being taken and plenty of hand sanitizer available."

Cons:

• "Came to this place specifically due to reviews as on holiday in area. Ordered takeaway for 4 after day up the Tower. Half way home, the plan to eat at the B&B 10mins away, with packets on laps everyone noticed grease marks on their trousers from the grease dripping through the packaging. Significant washing now required."
