  • I'm finally in the beautiful town of Whitby. I've been recommended so many fish and chip shops to review so I've decided to head down there and try some of Whitby's finest. This includes Magpie Cafe, Trenchers, Hadley's, Silver Street and Abbey Wharf. I wish I could have done more but I couldn't eat anymore Fish and Chips! Let's give it a go!
    Trenchers - £12.05
    Silver Street - £10.00
    Hadley's - £11.40
    Abbey Wharf - £13.20
    Magpie Cafe - £12.15

    My rating is 10/10 for Gary, because not only was it one of his best vlogs, it also shows he's not doing it just for the money, so many others would have split this into 3,4 or 5 vlogs...
    Well done, loved it 👏

      Thanks so much Tel. I don't think that would be fair to those who do not enjoy Fish and Chips so I had to put them all in one. It really means a lot that you think so highly of the video and have a lovely rest of your weekend. As always, a pleasure.

      You're so right Terry. A very good point you made. I preferred number 1. I absolutely love Haddock, chips and mushy peas. Haddock has to have the skin on . Love it. Now I've got the munchies lol xx😘

      agreed Gary does very well informed videos for the best places to eat also been some nice locations , its nice to learn of food places I've never seen or heard of before, plus he's always very down to earth about what he really thinks about the food. 😊
      yeah there would be people that would turn something like this into 6 or 7 videos and milk it the best they can but Gary he's not that person , he's as honest as they come.

    I'm a 62 yr old Yank and I must say if Gary is any indication, Brits judge a fish and chips joint by it's mushy peas ad much as the fish and chips! To an American, this is the equivalent of judging a BBQ joint by it's potato salad as much as it's brisket or hamburger place by it's onion rings. I realize that not all Brits use the same judging criteria and I love Gary's honest reviews , I just crack up at his personal obsession with mushy peas. Everyone take care and as always Gary, "Lets give it a go!"

    Not only your best video but the best food review I've ever seen on TH-cam by any other vlogger, your reviews are honest as can be, a brilliant concept visiting 5 chipies, heard a lot about Trenches so I thought they would be number one and your video proved it, the rest of the scoring i totally agree with you, a bit disappointed with the Magpie as they used to be the mecca for fish & chips but thats why 62k watch your vlogs for honest reviews, being retired I've watched quite a lot on the box this week mainly due the weather but I can honestly say this is the best viewing I've had in the last month or so, carry on with the great work Gary.

    One of your best reviews so far Gary, very fairly done. What a Journey for you ! but glad you enjoyed the visit. You would have seen a notable difference at a weekend - not the best place to be ! As you stayed over I hope you got the chance to enjoy some excellent Yorkshire beer! Glad you liked my (and many others) recommendation for Trenchers. Always the best and certainly the best presented. No surprise with the Magpie, I have several relatives and friends who have been very disappointed with the take away. Your marks and league table were spot on . One overwhelming observation - fish and chips is no longer a cheap meal !! 👍👍

    Oh happy days, my favourite food, fish, chips and mushy peas. I love Whitby, been many times, glad to see the weather was behaving itself. The first lot of fish and chips for me, that haddock looked delicious. So jealous Gary, a dream come true, 5 lots of fish and chips to try.

      Trenchers is my go-to lunchtime restaurant whenever I'm in Whitby. Trenchers also has a branch in Whitley Bay, in the refurbished Spanish City building. It's a very classy joint, and each time I've been there (perhaps 7 or 8 times in the past four years) the service and the quality of the F&C dinners have been excellent.

    Gary, lovely video. Its oddly satisfying watching someone pick up a bit of battered fish, take a bite and seeing their reaction.
    Especially when they are as polite and reasonable as you are.
    I rated them as 9 - 7 - 8 - 8 - 7 Trenchers looked so good, but I don't think I'd be particularly disappointed with any of them if I'm honest.

    Another excellent review Gary. My scores were the same as yours. However I would never have mushy peas in any universe! I just don’t like them, or ordinary peas for that matter! What I love is that most of them do skin on fish which I absolutely love, but here in Orkney it’s not a thing and I miss it! Apart from my sisters pub where she’ll do it for anyone who asks. Interested in why you chose haddock, that’s all we ever get here and I miss the choice of cod or sole or plaice etc. I’d probably not visit Whitby in summer it’ll be absolutely heaving, you went at just the right time, it looks stunning.

    Just visited Whitby for the first time with my girlfriend and baby daughter. We went to Trenchers based on this review. We ate in and were definitely not disappointed. £16.50 for haddock or cod with chips (no mushy peas), so a little pricier than take-away to be expected. The service and facilities were also fantastic at Trenchers. The best fish and chips I’ve ever had and Whitby is a lovely town. Great review Gary 😋👍🏻

    You've made my year, Gary. From the start, your enthusiasm for what you were about to unveil in this video was infectious and outstanding entertainment. Well done to you and Mr Cameraman.
    I know I’m truly blessed to live up here and so close to this gorgeous mecca, but I'm delighted that the town of Whitby and the selection of its many fish and chip shops that you chose, lived up to the hype, except for Silver Street Fisheries, which is always closed when we go.
    I agree with your rankings, except I would have marked Silver Street as a 5.
    Over the years, we have eaten more in Trenchers than any other Fish and Chip shop in Whitby. Never had a bad meal there. I always ask for my haddock to be fried without the skin and they always oblige. We had a halibut special in Hadleys last year, which was outstanding. We went to the Magpie Cafe most recently to eat some a la carte and daily specials. They offer the most choice of any fish dish types or seafood on their restaurant menu, mostly excellent if you want a good fish or seafood restaurant meal.
    Lucky for you, the seagull outside of the Magpie had either overdosed on their soggy batter or just taken his daily diazepem. They normally don't tend to observe politely but swoop in immediately, pinch your food or make you drop it on the deck.
    Play them a Kylie song on your phone's loudspeaker and they'll commute to Whitley Bay in a flash. 😅😅😅😂❤

    Great review! Of the five I’ve only visited The Magpie, it was 17yrs ago. I also had Haddock and remember it being lovely. Beef dripping is next level for Fish and Chips, just the smell outside the Chippy is gorgeous and unmistakable. I thought Trenchers looked very good. I remember in your neck of the woods The Fryers Delight in Bloomsbury and Rock Salt in Folkestone cook in beef dripping. I remember Rock Salt offering the choice of veg oil or beef dripping but obviously I went for dripping.

    Some great fish meals there. Personally I always like skin on as you can tell what fish you are getting. The secret to getting the excellent batters you got apart from Magpies is leaving lumps in the batter and not over beating it. When the fish cooks the lumps explode giving that lovely crispy curls on the fish. Look like Magpies were over zealous with the mixing 😊
    As for chips, I love those crispy bits that you didn’t like 😂

    A fish and chip marathon. Now that's my kind of marathon! Whitby is a really lovely place although it's been some years since I last visited. Like you I was really surprised at the Magpie offering mostly because that is the one James Martin champions. The chips and the batter did look very sad. Maybe on another day the result could be very different but you can't judge them on 'what ifs' or 'maybes' only on what you were provided with which was fair. Where there is so much competition standards have to be consistent no matter who you are. Great job and you were blessed with good weather too. I could almost smell the sea air and the fish n chips!

    For me Trenchers was best overall, just get the mushy peas from the Magpie Cafe.
    I'm planning on moving back to Whitby next year and I will be sampling the fish & chips. As a proper Northerner, I need top quality mushy peas which should be radioactive green with the consistency of thick porridge.
    Compared to my neck of the woods, seeing fish, chips & mushy peas for just £10-£12 is amazing. Where I live, haddock is £13.40 on its own.

    I noticed at least a couple of the haddock were defo overcooked, flakes looked dry and rough rather than smooth and glistening. Another awesome post Gary👍

    Incredible Gary - well done. I go to Whitby whenever I visit family and go with my Dad who is in his 80’s. He went to Hadley’s when he was younger with his mum and dad - I take my kids now so 4th generation of customers…

    Excellent blog. Excellent video. Quite a task with 5 on the list. Made it exciting. Your values were fair but very difficult due to the differences. I think you were fair and I picked overall of the 1st one. Different way of doing it especially on 1 video only so well done.

      Nice video again, Gary! ❤ Cameraman hasn't eaten this good in a long time!! don't be making a habit of this! 🤣🤣
      I know you said the Magpie was cooked to order, but did you see them fry the chips then and there? my theory is: they're usually so packed with lines going around the block, that the chips that are being fried are served as soon as they're done cooking. They can barely cook them, as fast as they're going out again. It's almost an immediate turn around, and that adds an element of freshness you can't beat, I reckon.
      Whereas, when it's not jam-packed, they're probably not gonna blow you away because they've just been sat, even if just for a few secs/mins. It's like when you get McDonalds chips. If you've ever had them straight out the fryer, they are so hot/crispy/fluffy, it's night and day compared to the ones which have been stood on the rack keeping warm.
      When we were last there, we saw the lines at Trenchers and Magpies and just found somewhere else randomly. Tried the "Fish Box" just down the road, in and out in a few minutes, and had some really nice quality chips/pies, staff were nice too. Best chips I've ever had, were at the Lifeboat Bar in Scarborough, always had quality fish/chips from there without fail. (they've also got a funny sign inside which says the explanation for "Scraps" up north, and a long list of INCORRECT names other people use for them... 🤭😂)

    I’m hungry now! I agree Trenchers is the best. Whenever I’m in Whitby ( not that often,but every few years) Trenchers is my go-to fish n chip shop. Gosh! I really,REALLY,want some fish n chips after watching this!😂

    Great video, really helpful as i'm visiting soon and always a bit cautions when trying new F&C places. I'll be heading to Trenchers or Hadleys. I bet scraps at Trenchers are great looking at that batter. Thanks

    Good one Gary it was worth the wait! Epic episode, exactly what I hoped for.
    Some of the best fish and chips in the World Yorkshire coast, combined with West Yorkshire also.
    I agree Trenchers is number 1, but all are better than 99% elsewhere.

    1st, Trenchers 10, 2nd Hadleys 91/2, 3rd Abbey Wharf 8, 4th Magpie 7 1/2,
    5th Silver Street 7.
    So good to see you in Whitby, I grew up just outside Whitby, we always went to Hadleys but I've been to Trenchers and Magpie, I agree Magpie was the most disappointing of the 3 I've been to.
    A great video Gary, must have been hard work all those fish and chips 😏
