This. Place. Is. Brilliant.
Fisherman’s Bay is hands down the best fish and chips we’ve eaten in a long time, and as if that’s not enough, they do a FOOT LONG PIG IN A BLANKET. That’s a pig in a blanket, that’s a foot long and deep fried in crispy batter. We’re not joking.
We rocked up on a Friday night after a particularly gruelling week at work, in desperate need of a pre-weekend boost. We were not disappointed. Don’t be fooled by the classic chip shop facade, although if you do live locally you can takeaway. The back of the restaurant has loads of cosy little tables nestled amongst little touches of seaside decor.
The food is just FAB. Like honestly, 10/10. If you’re in the mood for fish and chips (and let’s face it, who’s ever not in the mood for a fish supper?) then you’ll love it here. It’s like a classic takeaway got an upgrade. Light, crispy batter, perfectly cooked fish and a basket of proper chip shop chips. We couldn’t resist the festive foot long pig in a blanket either and wow. A Hodgson’s sausage wrapped in maple syrup streaky bacon and battered – bliss!
Definitely couldn’t recommend this enough to anyone around Whitley Bay/Newcastle. Fab staff and service, incredible food and great atmosphere!
Pics coming soon…
