Young's Fisheries - Hartlepool

On a warmish mid July sometimes sunny day, we parked in the car park and went looking for something to eat. Looked at the prices at one chip shop and walked over the road to Youngs to compare. Best move as we were served by a friendly young girl who explained about the value boxes and both of us chose a small box with chips, peas, fish and a drink for under under £7 each. Sat on a bench on the promenade, eating, watching the sea and it was great. Thoroughly enjoyed our lunch.

Where do i start.. waited 10mins in a queue of just three people.. when i was served it was some sultry, lip curling girl in her late teens...change slammed on the counter...i think you know the score.. Anyway had to wait another 15mins for just the two boxes of chips i ordered. When they eventually came they appeared to have been fried twice and in all honesty they were 'poor '. Three people in a queue and we still waited 25mins isnt really on. Heard some great things about Youngs prior to visiting...im guessing some folk are easily pleased....needless to say we wont be going back and i have also made comment on my blog.

Nice food but the staff need to learn how to smile. A nice smile and a bit of friendliness a warm welcome would go along way.

Lovely fish and chips. Two small cod and one portion of chips was enough for us 2 pensioners. I liked that they split the chips for us so we each had a box to eat from. Pleasant staff as well.......we would happily return if there again.

There are a handful of fish n chips shops in Seaton Carew but Youngs are definately my favourite for a bargain price. Small Cod and chips, side of mushy peas and a cuppa tea £6-20. Tasty fish and a decent portion of chips. Very nice!
