What sue likes about The Famous Fishpan:
I had a fantastic meal at this restaurant for only £14, which included fish, chips, peas, bread, butter, and a cup of tea. The food was hot and delicious, and it was delivered promptly with generous portions. The staff were extremely friendly and attentive, and the tables were cleaned quickly after each customer. I will definitely be visiting this restaurant again. View all feedback. What Teresa Scanlon doesn't like about The Famous Fishpan:
Lovely big chunky chips and an ok piece of haddock. Hadn't realised it was dog friendly or would have gone elsewhere (I like dogs but they have no place in food establishments in my opinion). View all feedback.

The Famous Fish Pan offers a mix of reviews, with some patrons praising the delicious fish and chips, ample portions, and friendly service. However, others have complained about rude staff, undercooked food, and high prices. The seafront location and lovely views are highlighted by visitors, with some stating they would return despite minor issues. Overall, The Famous Fish Pan seems to be a hit or miss depending on individual experiences, making it a place worth trying if you find yourself in Scarborough.
