  “Absolutely delicious and crispy fish and chips, not soggy at all! Beautiful restaurant, really nice atmosphere. Plenty of table both inside and outside. Fairly priced and the large fish and chips is massive, it comes two fishes. Service is outstanding from all of the staff, always with a smile. Very clean as well. Definitely worth trying! They were open a bit late today thanks to the beautiful weather.”

  “First time eating here, this was the only chippy open until 8pm! We both ordered fish and chips, not too long a wait, very tasty, we polished them off! Immaculate toilets. We liked looking at the pictures on the walls which kept changing, of old Scarborough.”

  “A regular favourite of mine in Scarborough. The food is always fantastic. Freshly prepared fish and chips ensure the food is piping hot. The portions are good and definitely fill you up. The fish is some of the best around with chunky white flakes wrapped in a crisp, golden batter. The chips are cooked to perfection and taste exactly how you want them to. This is seaside fish and chips at its best. The service can be a little chaotic. The youngsters on the counter aren't always the most organised or enthusiastic so sometimes you can be waiting a little while longer than you would like. On my last visit, they lost my ticket so I was waiting a good fifteen minutes for my food. Still, it was worth the wait. Despite this minor complaint, the next time I go to Scarborough, this will be my first port of call. Great food. Well worth a visit.”

  “Went here for fish and chips after a day out in York, I don’t think they could have watered down the vinegar anymore than what they have.They don’t sell cod only haddock chips were ok, 4 kids serving . I’ll do more research if I come to Scarborough in the future!!! Over priced for what we had, but hey that’s rip off Britain!”

  “We called in here today as it was a special day celebrating and remembering my Dad's life. He loved this fish and chip cafe, so today was a day we went with my Mum. From walking through the door, we were greeted with a lovely young lady with a warm smile, she was very patient whilst we decided what we would like, even advising us of what the fish was and that it was skinless and boneless, just how I prefer. She took our order and gave us the order receipt, advising us that we will be called once the food and drinks were ready. I like how the drinks are served at the same time as the food. The cafe is lovely inside with nautical theme, spotlessly clean and welcoming feel to the place. When the food arrived it was piping hot and absolutely delicious, I will go as far as saying, it was the BEST fish I have ever had, pure white Haddock with a perfectly light and crispy batter, I chose to have salt and vinegar on it. My husband opted for a battered sausage buttie, to which he thoroughly enjoyed. The cafe staff we found all very pleasant and, sitting at a table with a view of the bay (perfect). We visited the loo before we left, which incidentally very again spotlessly clean. I make no wonder my Dad loved this place. A review also in memory of my lovely Dad. Thank you Anchor Fish & Chips, we highly recommended you.”

  “I'll drop it a point because while the serving staff were spot on. The young lad clearing the tables was dropping F bombs quite regularly. Not ideal. The food was seaside fare and fine for that. Having a beer with it was fab. I also discovered spam fritters. Greasy and lovely.”

  “Great fish and chip shop right in front of the harbour. Food was really good and was nice and clean inside. The only thing that I didn’t like was when I asked for ketchup, the server said she’d do me 5 for £1 (I don’t like paying for condiments after spending £40 on food) Only for the customer behind me asked if he had to pay for ketchup and the same server said no and gave him a handful of it for free. All in all a great place to eat and there is toilets inside which are also nice and clean.”

  “Lovely friendly staff and wonderful fish n chips. Definitely amongst the best I’ve had. The batter was light and crispy and the fish white and meaty. Highly recommended.”

  “Mixed feelings with this one. We had large fish and chips which is a good sized portion, the chips are really nice and the batter on the fish was perfect. Unfortunately the fish was slightly over cooked and a bit dry also a bit thin. If the fish was cooked a bit better this would be up there with the best. The staff are friendly and place is very clean and tidy.”
