Driving down from Northumbria to Essex, we decided we couldn't pass Whitby and not visit. I looked up fish and chips and we chose The Fishermans Wife. Great choice. The small haddock and chips was perfect for me (the batter really light and crisp), and step mums fish pie was, she said, delicious. The rhubarb cheesecake was also really tasty...not too sweet, and very light. The only downside was the noise from the kiddies roundabout outside the window which was a bit intrusive, but there were plenty of other tables we could have sat at away from the window.
Called in for late lunch yesterday - we chose a whole lobster in garlic butter and king prawns to share with salads and chips and 6 oysters on ice - and a cold glass of wine - I’ve got to say it was the best and biggest lobster wev ever had !! Plenty for 2 people ! The only thing i would say is skinny fries would have gone better but I’m only mentioning that not as a complaint just a suggestion because it was fabulous �
Always our first meal when we come up to whitby, we love it! Such lovely staff, and very accommodating when food isn’t on the menu but we’ve had before. P.s the sauce vierge is to die for, would love the recipe �
