National Fish and Chip Day 2024: Best fish and chip restaurants in Yorkshire near coastal beaches including Whitby, Scarborough and Filey based on Google reviews

National Fish and Chip Day is normally held on a Friday, but this year it has been moved to today (June 6) to coincide with the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings.

Yorkshire has a rich history when it comes to fisheries as it has been a vital part of the coastline’s heritage that continues to be preserved today.

There are many large and small fishing fleets located at many ports across the Yorkshire coast, including Whitby, Scarborough, Filey and Bridlington.

Bridlington is the largest shell fishing port in the British Isles and exports its produce to various locations across the continent, mostly France, Italy and Spain.

Here are some of the highest rated fish and chip restaurants in Yorkshire just walking distance from the beach based on Google reviews.
