The best chipshop in Scarborough! Excellent service, best gravy and peas! Plus its the little extra things like a extra jug of water with your tea, half portions to save money! Plus 2 fish and chips, peas, gravy and a pot of tea for £22
P.S. Sorry best in the UK
Nice little or as in the tile "Small" chip shop but what it lacks in size it makes up for in taste. The chips were yummy and just how I like them, the jumbo sausage was very tasty and the mushy peas were also very nice. I've marked them down one star because as with the name Small Fry so are their portions. I've never had so few chips anywhere I've eaten and I've eaten at lots of places. Would've marked them down lower but couldn't as they were very friendly and nice women running the place they just need to put more chips in the bag.

This Small Fry is a Big Deal
A real step back in time.
A wonderful experience enhanced by the two sisters who told us they had run this shop for the last 40 years. Both with a lovely sense of humour and wit and good old fashioned service. They have no access to Internet so are oblivious to the endless 5* reviews and they gain customers purely by locals and word of mouth. Tucked away on a side street, the only downside is parking is pot luck. Again because of no Internet they only take cash but they are a stones throw away from Scarborough Town centre. We had called before arriving as we were cutting it fine to get there before closing time. Even on the phone, nothing was too much trouble.
Onto the food, we both had fish (haddock, fresh in that day) , chips and peas. The batter was beautiful, light and crispy, not the slightest bit greasy. Chips were fresh and flavourful, peas just slightly too sweet for our taste. We also had a roll which was spread with fresh butter not margarine.
When asking for a can of coke the lady ensured she reached to the back of the fridge reaching for a cold one explaining she had just restocked it for the next day.
They also have a restaurant open during daytime hours.
This is definitely top of our list next time we visit Scarborough.
Absolutely fantastic.really friendly owner Really nice and tasty fish. Good portions. Spotlessly clean inside. Definitely our go to chip shop from now on.
Our family love coming to this fish and chip shop. It’s a hidden gem in the middle of Scarborough. Run by two sisters, their service is incredible and always welcoming. And the food is incredible- the best fish and chips in Scarborough guaranteed. Keep up the good work ladies x
Friendly chippy and caff. £1.80 for a chip butty. Cooked in vegetable oil so vegetarian.
Made to order fish and chips, we had battered sausage chips fish pies curry sauce, beans, gravy, and peas. Every one of us liked our meals, cash only business so no cards. Try this fish shop it's fantastic. For your sat nav it's YO11 1DE. You won't get better fish and chips in Scarborough. 5*
Lovely old school proper fish and chip shop . Cooked to perfection, fresh fluffy white fish with a nice even batter. All served up by the charming ladies . We had take out haddock and chips but there is a small restaurant.
Excellent food and service. I recommend Small Fry to anyone in the vicinity. Thank you. Food was hot, fresh and tasty. And we were served as Queens. The warmth, aquarium and music just added to the pleasure.
