What d0nnyb0y doesn't like about Blue Whale:
I don’t usually like to critique a business but I’ve just had haddock chips and peas , based on the trip advisor score I fancied this from here as I pass often . Sorry but this is the worst fish I’ve ever had , and sadly peas were solid . Not enjoyable at all . I’ve called in at Harworth , tickhill , langold and Lindrick so was hoping this would be good .

Situated 10 minutes off M18 J1 also main road through to A1. Been coming here for 15 years+ and I have never had a bad meal yet. Food is always cooked fresh, hot and beautiful. Menu is extensive and not expensive. Service is always quick and owner is polite. Even though we no longer live in the area, this is always our 'go to ' plaice when we are back. Would always recommend and go back every time View all feedback.

I visited this restaurant today and the staff were extremely helpful, earning 5 stars for their friendly customer service. The haddock was also excellent.
