What mchawkins1 doesn't like about Drake's Fish Chips:
Yesterday, we went to the restaurant for lunch. My colleague ordered the large fish and chips with mushy peas, while I opted for the smaller portion with chicken for a starter. Unfortunately, they forgot to bring the mushy peas initially, and we had to chase them down to get our food. Despite it being a Friday, the restaurant was very quiet with only one other couple dining there. View all feedback. What allertonlad likes about Drake's Fish Chips:
Was a bit dubious after a few negative reviews recently, but so pleased that I called in on a Saturday lunchtime whilst in Harrogate recently. Fast and friendly service, superb food, good menu, highly recommended. View all feedback.

Drakes Restaurant offers a varied dining experience that leaves patrons with differing impressions. While some enjoy friendly service and fresh food on occasion, many express disappointment over uncleanliness, inattentive staff, and declining food quality. Complaints include forgotten orders, rude service, and longer wait times despite a quiet atmosphere. However, there are glimmers of hope with new, attentive staff and commendable meals during busier times. Overall, Drakes appears to be struggling with consistency, leaving diners unsure whether to return or seek alternatives for their fish and chips cravings.
