Great value for good fish and chips. A little short staffed so service not fast but understandable. I'll certainly be back!! ?

One of the best fish shops there is. Having experienced the Whaler for years before it's expansion outside of Wetherby it always has offered amazing fish and chips. Doesn't matter which one you go to, you still get that Wetherby taste. The fish is fresh, and cooked in tasty batter, chips are thick and delightful. There is nothing like the Whaler

Very good fish and chips. Fish is a bit small for the price, and I'm a fan of decent portions, but tasty

Great fish & chip restaurant. Comfortable surroundings, good choices (appreciate the seniors menu!), friendly and attentive staff. Quick service, food quality excellent- cooked to order and served quickly. Great value and the only restaurant chain where I will have fish.

Is this the best fish and chip restraunts in Yorkshire?? It's definitely up there.Fish is amazing with alight crispy batter, with crisp chips that taste of potatoes with curry sauce, and cup of tea! Champion!Service is great.Restraunts spotlessly clean and really high end.Meal for 2 with deserts £40. Great value.Parking: In the market square

Ordered 3 chips, 3 small sausages, 3 large sausages, gravy, curry sauce and some scraps (my daughter's request), all wrapped up to take home. Went to unpack the food and realised there was only 2 portions of chips, moreover, there couldn?t have been more tha 10-15 chips in each portion, for £2.80, really?! Oh and no scraps (unhappy daughter!).I returned to the shop quite frustrated only to be made to feel stupid and the one at fault by the person who served me, she was quick to say she had only been there a week and her grandma had just died. (To the lady who has been at the shop a long time, if you hadn?t been so polite my frustration would have been amplified, so thank you).I was also told by the person who served me she had only taken for 2 chips, I don?t think this was the case and asked them to check, aparently their till system couldn?t provide this information. Even though this experience was far from satisfactory, naturally if I hadn?t paid for what I ordered, I offered to do so.The replaced food included a few more chips but clearly still a war rationing amount and sadly, they were tasteless potatoes. I think spending time in Harrogate has spoilt me, Oatlands Fish and Chips (as well as others) give more than twice as many chips for the same money and the potatoes from the Wetherby Whaler don?t compare is taste.This fish and chip shop used to be iconic, that?s a reputation that wouldn?t be formed today with this type of experience. It really does feel that the customer has a price to pay for the refurbishment.We seem to be expected to accept poor value and poor service, of course, it?s the consumers fault ?.The photo is of £12.45?s worth of rationed, tasteless food. I still never got my scraps, very unhappy daughter ?). I?ll use an alternate fish and chip shop in the future, not the first poor experience and in general it?s not a very friendly place.

We ordered 3 lots of fish and chips. The service was amazing. Sorry I can't recall the name of who served us but she split a portion into two for me as I asked for a spare carton (for the kids). It's just little touches like this that make customer service great. We walked down to the river and had them there. They were still piping hot. Fish white and flaky. Lightly battered which was crispy fish and chips cooked to absolute perfection. Two types of curry sauce (spicy or chip shop i opted for the latter which was a fruity option). I am a fussy eater and this was incredible. You won't be disappointed.

We came for a weeks holiday & then for our sons Wedding, we had a fantastic time. We went to the Whaler twice. It was fabulous. The food was delicious & they did gluten free for me. Excellent. Very friendly staff & helpful.Dietary restrictions: Very good gluten free options for me.
