This modern ‘posh chippy’ (est. 2020) just 20 yards from the sea has a “first-class fish menu to suit all tastes”, from fish ’n’ chips to consume on the beach to a menu of more elevated international seafood dishes to eat in the dining room. There’s a second branch in York’s Shambles Market.

This two-year-old just twenty yards from the beach at Sandsend serves highly rated fish ’n’ chips plus some more elevated seafood dishes, to eat in or take away (which some reporters reckon is “the best option”). A second branch in York Market makes a “fabulous addition” to the city’s food offering.

On the north end of Whitby Bay, next to a stream that trickles into the ocean, this refined new beach shack turns out “very good fish and chips” from its takeaway hatch; you can also linger longer in the restaurant over fishy small and large plates, plus tacos and loaded fries.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
