Fish and chips and the seaside go hand in hand. Whether you’re a classic fish, chips and mushy peas kind of person, or like us, you enjoy a pot of curry sauce with your fish, there’s no better place (pardon the pun) to enjoy this British cuisine than on the coast. So, it’s no surprise that one of the Yorkshire Coast’s chippies has topped a list of the best in the UK.
Beating out 10,000 UK chippies, Lifeboat Fish Bar in Scarborough has been named the most affordable – and with summer on the way, countless people heading to the coast, and the cost of living crisis ongoing, the news couldn’t come at a better time.
The Yorkshire Coast is home to a range of the best fish and chips you could wish for. And the team at Moneyboat made it their mission to find the most affordable fish and chips in the UK. Analysing TripAdvisor reviews to rank the most reasonably priced spots, Scarborough’s top chippy came out on top as the place to go without blowing your budget this summer.
The most up-to-date prices we can find via a TripAdvisor snapshot from August 2023 show the price of fish & chips as £10.95 for haddock and chips, with a ‘lite bite’ haddock and chips for £8.95. (It’s unclear whether that is a sit-in or take-out).
Home to a historic harbour and known as the oldest seaside town in Britain, Scarborough is one of the top coastal destinations in the UK. And if visitors are looking for quality fish and chips at great prices Lifeboat Fish Bar is the one to visit this summer.
Located just off the main street, Lifeboat Fish Bar can be found on Eastborough, behind the main beachside eateries. With a total score of 9.62 and an overall TripAdvisor rating of 4.9, it’s no surprise that it sits comfortably in first place. When it comes to value for money, the Lifeboat Fish Bar has an equally impressive score of 4.8.
