Note: Sorry About The Poor Image? I Was Tucking Into It. And Midway Through I Totally Forgot Too Take A Photo.

Just Too The Left Side Of Lower Petergate Is Drakes Fish & Chips. The Exterior Of It Deceives By Thinking It’s Just An Ordinary Chippy? But No…

It’s Much More. Once You Enter You Can Rather Dine In? Or Quite Simply Just Order A Takeaway. Normally I’d Do The Second Option. But For A Change We Decided Too Dine In…

We Walked Straight On From The Entrance. And We Were Immediately Seated Near The Window. Our Server Brought Us A Jug Of Water And We Politely Asked For The Menu

She Brought It Over. And We Already Figured What We Wanted Too Order? (And Yes They Do Gluten Free Options) We All Basically Ordered The Same Thing 2x Large Fish And Chips And One Large Gluten Free Fish And Chips…

Just Too Note While Our Food Was Being Prepared? The Interior Was Stunning? Made Us Feel Warm And Welcomed? Kinda Like An Old Style Caffe?

Around 25 Minutes Later Our Food Came? And Already It Looked Delicious? … Not Too Crispy On The Outside? And The Chunky Chips Weren’t Too Ridged? One Thing Too Point Out Though? Although One Of My Friends Ordered A Gluten Free Fish? It Appeared As Though The Batter Just Looked Like Our Normal Ones? … And In The End? It Turns Out It Wasn’t. So My Friend Started Feeling ill Once We Payed And Left? But That Doesn’t Deserve A Marking Down? Since She Still Enjoyed It And It Was A Fairly Busy Day? And Too Be Honest? We Don’t Know For Sure? … Anyways … We Were Satisfied With Our Meals And Service? So We Payed And Tipped Our Server And We Left With Full Stomachs… … Honestly On That Day I Gotta Thank The Servers For Being So Kind And Generous? Making Us Feel Loved? While We Were Eating? Coming Around Now And Then Too Make Sure We Weren’t Unfed? … So Thank You So Much? I Cant Wait Too Come Back Too York And Maybe One Day I’ll Return Too Update This Review? … I Wish Drakes The Bestest Future Just From The Experience We Had There? And I’d Easily Rank That Plate Of Food The Best I’ve Ever Had? … Decor’s Lovely Staff We’re Superb? I’d 100 And Ten Percent Recommend This Place Too Anyone Who’s Dropping By The Area? Especially Not Far Away From The Shambles And York...

Drake's Fish & Chips in York: A Must-Visit for Seafood Lovers

If you're looking for the best fish and chips in York, look no further than Drake's. This family-run business has been serving up fresh, delicious seafood for over 30 years, and it's easy to see why they're so popular.

The fish at Drake's is always perfectly cooked, with a crispy batter and a juicy, flaky interior. The chips are also excellent, golden brown and perfectly fluffy. But the real star of the show is the mushy peas. They're creamy, flavorful, and the perfect accompaniment to the fish and chips.

In addition to the classic fish and chips, Drake's also offers a variety of other seafood dishes, such as scampi, calamari, and fishcakes. They also have a great selection of sides, including coleslaw, onion rings, and curry sauce.

The restaurant itself is clean and inviting, with a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. The staff is always happy to help you choose the perfect dish and make sure that you have a great dining experience.

Overall, Drake's is a fantastic place to enjoy delicious fish and chips. The food is always fresh and well-cooked, the service is excellent, and the prices are reasonable. If you're looking for a great seafood meal in York, be sure to check out Drake's.

We read the chip shop reviews beforehand in ready for our recent trip to York. Drake's was near to our regular apartment with great reviews so decided to give it a try.

OMG the best Fish and Chips we both have EVER had...ten stars and then some.

Two of us (adults) had takeaway regular haddock each... one portion of chips to share... one of us curry sauce the other mushy peas...took them back to our apartment and OMG the haddock just melted in the mouth the batter tasty and the perfect ratio to the fish. Tasted both the curry sauce AND the mushy peas both really tasty. We had some bread and butter with it and were stuffed. Originally asked for the large haddock and they only had regular but it was honestly enough and fantastic value for money.

So on the day of departure decided to go to the resturant part. There was a queue in which we were offered to wait 15mins or book a table and come back. We decided to wait. Very quickly... less than 10mins later we were taken to our table. We ordered the haddock and chips each...again the regular which came with tea and a side. We again had the mushy peas and curry sauce. Beautiful tasty lunch...tea too. We ordered an extra side of bread and butter...a thick slice of fresh bread and an individually wrapped butter each. Lovely tasting bread.

We were not rushed even though they were busy. Filling...tasty...hot and again fantastic value for money.

York is full of eateries with lots of choices...if fish and chips is your thing this place is a MUST.

Staff are very polite and professional... the food A class. What more could you want?

You must try it I will guarantee you will be delighted. Whilst waiting in the queue we spoke to other York regular visitors like us and they said exactly the same thing.

Maybe even try the deep fried Mars bar...IF...

Taste: 5 Service: 5 Value: 4 Presentation: 5 Overall: 4.8 rounded up to 5 Hi and welcome to another episode of javing it with Javier. Let's see what we are javing today. It's been a while since my last review because I was traveling in China where Google was not available. But this week, I will be starting my adventure in the UK. Tonight we are having the classic UK fish and chips with a pumpkin soup starter. And without further ado, let's dive right into the review! For starters, the pumpkin soup was fresh and hot! I took a spoonful of it and burnt my throat. Very flavorful and definitely a nice starter. It also comes with two pieces of bread which is a nice addition. The fish and chips come in standard, large, and jumbo size. I got the standard size and it was already very filling so go for jumbo if you really want a challenge. As I bit into the fish, it felt as though it melted in my mouth. The batter was crispy, light, thin, and not oily. It felt like the perfect combination. I hadn't had fish and chips in a while where I haven't been eating mostly batter in a while. The waitresses were very nice and well mannered. And they were also very helpful in answering our questions. I don't remember the price of this meal but when I saw the combo price I was astounded. Not only did it come at a superb price, the meal was filling and of high quality. In conclusion, this was a great meal to start of my UK trip and I'm excited for all the future meals I will be having. And that's it for today's episode of javing it with Javier. And remember food is life!
