Great review. No excuse for cold peas. They should always be piping hot. I have run fish and chips shops and the batter is the way to judge the fish. Yorkshire Fisheries is absolutely perfect. This place thr batter was flat which is OK but with a bit more care they could achieve the spiky whispy batter. The chip portion was shocking. Every customer should get the same amount. Other than that it looked a friendly competent chippy. Keep the reviews coming Stephen.

No, the mushy peas shouldnt be cold. We go to pebbles instead, fish size good, batter lovely definitely a bigger fish than you got on your video pebbles gets my vote for the best fish and chips in llandudno it used to be the restaurant up the orme but we went back after lockdown and it was a disappointment the batter was nowhere near as good it was overcooked, it used to be a 10 out of ten but on that visit it was more like a four so pebbles gets our vote
