If you’re after crispy cod, mushy peas, and mountains of chips, then look no further than this round-up of reader recommendations.

Yarm Road Fish and Chips, 366 Yarm Road, Darlington, DL1 1XL

Though fish and chips shops are not in scarce supply, Yarm Road chippy has come highly accoladed by readers. One recommendation said “I struggled to find decent fish and chips for a while in Darlington. I’ve been using Yarm Road since my regular closed for work on the train station, and it’s absolutely spot on.”

The Famous Fish Pan, 28 Foreshore Road, Scarborough, YO11 1PB

The Fish Famous Pan in Scarborough came highly recommended – though of by some “best chippy” in a fish and chip-centric town. A quick look at TripAdvisor shows you why – the views, the service, and least of all the food, are all praised by pleased customers.

The Magpie Café, 14 Pier Road, Whitby, YO21 3PU

As a seafood restaurant rather than a chippy, Magpie Café is an upmarket option – but their fish and chips are a menu staple. They even come recommended by the Waitrose Good Food Guide, and Restaurant Guru.  

Bradleys Fish and Chips, 299, High Street, Northallerton, DL7 8DW

A relative newcomer, Bradleys Traditional Fish and Chip Shop in Northallerton has made an impact on customers in North Yorkshire. One said, “It’s not been open long, but has fabulous fish and chips!”
