Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We have visited a number of fish restaurants in whitby over the years and I have to say that this one is our favourite 😍. Why do we think 🤔 that?? Firstly, the fish and chips are very nice. Fish is white, flakey and fresh...and chips are just right ( for me anyway!); secondly, they have a "special" that consists of small fish and chips, bread and butter and a pot of tea for a very reasonable price. It is a very clean and cosy restaurant, and staff are amiable. It has a varied menu, not just fish......well worth a visit 😋More

Wonderful fish and chips restaurant, freshly cooked and not greasy. Mr Chips never fails with the food but the young lady serving could do with some customer service training. She was a bit abrupt with her welcoming, or is this just the Yorkshire way? Still...a 5* and will return when I’m in the area again. 🙏More

Amazing fish and oysters also had beautiful scallops in a samphire and bacon sauce, had haddock and chips which were excellent, would have given 5 stars but service from the younger waitresses was a little sloppy at times, kids !!

Heard some great reviews of this place, so ended up heading for Sunday dinner. Clean and nice place, good selection of food and drinks. The food, what can I say. Very, very good fish and chips, some of the best in Whitby I’ve had. Other...people had the mussels, crab, scallops, all extremely well presented and very fresh and tasty. You may ask, why I’ve given it 3 stars, the service was very, very poor. 4 young waiters, zero personalities which you don’t mind, but please clear away our table and ask if we would like another drink, instead of being huddled around watching Tik Tok videos. Very, very disappointing service, but what do you expect with Gen Z staff, who can’t put their phones down for 1 hour at work. I’d happily come back to the take away service, but not sit down for a meal.More

We wanted our first 'fish and chip' lunch at Whitby to be a good one - and it was. 4 adults plus two dogs where welcomed warmly and the food was top drawer. We're here for a few days so we'll have something to compare...before we head home but Mr Chips has set the bar high and we'll likely be back!More

This restaurant provides fabulous food. We’v been visiting this place for about 7 years and every time we’ v received brilliant friendly service, dogs are welcome and there’s some thing for everyone on the menu. They have a daily specials board as well, can highly...recommend the mussels best we’v ever had anywhere! The crab starter is to die for.More

We were a group of 8 (plus 1 small dog) seated in 2 adjoining booths. Very tasty scallops to start followed by a lovely skate wing. Others in the group enjoyed the mussels and the trio of seafood (grilled cod, breaded king prawns and scallops)....They do non fish dishes too and members of the group liked the chicken strips with a soy marinade. The only disappointment were the chips themselves which were a little dry. Very good value drinks and helpful staff.More

This is my only gripe about TripAdvisor, dicks like this can post whatever they like but the businesses of honest people suffer the most.
