Featured Sandsend Restaurants
1. The Magpie Café
Fish & seafood restaurant in Whitby
14 Pier Rd - YO21
“Always the best fish ’n’ chips in the UK” – this “unfailing” café on the harbour is “a must-visit when in Whitby” and remains the most commented-on chippie nationally in our annual diners’ poll. “Yes, it does all the usual seaside dishes” and yet some fans “have never had the fish ’n’ chips here because the daily specials board of other seafood dishes is so good” – an “expansive choice of fish, shellfish and molluscs all ideally prepared” as “the kitchen is imaginative and the combinations, which sometimes sound unusual, can always be relied on”. “If you can bag a window seat (not easy in peak times… which is just about always) the view over the harbour is very atmospheric”.
2. Trenchers
Fish & chips restaurant in Whitby
New Quay Rd - YO21
“Watch out Magpie!” is a perennial cry of loyal fans of this Whitby fixture. But even if its more famous rival undoubtedly has won the popular vote, fans say this nearby chippie is “excellent of its kind”.
3. The Fish Cottage
Fish & chips restaurant in Sandsend
Fish Cottage - YO21
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.
