About Scartho Fisheries
Scartho Fisheries is a fish and chips takeaway at 43 Waltham Rd in Grimsby, and it works on a takeaway-only basis. Fish and chips make up the core of the offer, including haddock and chips with mushy peas. The fish is fried ready rather than only cooked to order. Chips come in large servings, and curry sauce or gravy goes alongside them. Fish cakes are also available for those who want something besides the fish. The shop gets busy in the evenings.

Customer Review Summary
Most reviewers come for the fish and chips, with the fish described as fried to perfection and fresh tasting, and one diner praising the haddock with mushy peas. Close behind are the large chips, called very good quality, and a curry sauce one reviewer found unbelievable, while another names the fish cakes as a favourite. Staff are repeatedly described as friendly, with a warm welcome and a thank you at the counter, and one reviewer liked that the fish was already cooked rather than made to order. A minority were let down. Two describe soggy batter, and one said the chips tasted reheated on a late afternoon visit. Another found the fish yellow and without taste. One parent said a large chips to share turned out to be a child's portion, and the gravy was so thick it could be eaten with a knife and fork. That same reviewer said the batter stuck to the paper and came off when the fish was unwrapped.

“I was born in Grimsby in 1960 move out of Grimsby in 1983. Visited my family last week and we had fish and chip from the same chip shop that I used all those years ago. I have Never and I mean this I have never had fish and chips as good as those from this chip shop they were by far the best I have ever had well worth the £10 I payed”

“Honestly it was awful, the first and last time trying, the batter on the fish was soggy, the first itself wasn’t great, and the chips tasted reheated which I don’t know how as it was Good Friday, so you would assume especially with it being at 16:40 that everything would have been freshly made. Only went as a family member said it was really nice when they had it the other week, the same family member had it with me today and even they said it was awful.”
