Was Anonym at Yates a mag?
we ordered a large cod and chips with curry sauce and ketchup bags (20p) came to £8.90 total. some of the best chips I already had. Curry sauce had great taste. no mistakes with these objects. the fish/batter could have done with a little bit more, was a bit bland, but the curry sauce helped. View all feedback.

What machinmad dislikes about Yates:
We'd done our favourite walk along the sea-front from Frinton to Walton and were looking forward to our fish n chips at Yates. But for some reason they got it horribly wrong on this occasion. It took over half an hour to cook my piece of plaice (nobody else was queuing during that time) and when I unwrapped it, the fish batter was rock hard and over cooked on the outside and undercooked on the inside. The chips were... View all feedback.

I just ordered takeout from this restaurant and I must say, we were incredibly impressed. The fish had a light, crispy batter, generous portion of chips, and was great value for the price. I would definitely come back to eat here again.

Walked in asked to take a table , unfortunately there wasn’t any that was cleared of previous dinners crockery , eventually cleared but not cleaned , ordered food asked for condiments and was informed that that they didn’t offer brown sauce at all . Got a refund left , we have eaten here on many occasions always had a good meal , it’s such a shame that the standards have dropped so low , no clean tables , food scraps on the floor basic condiments not supplied

I have been visiting Walton on the Naze, off and on, for 30+ years. I have had a number of friends that live/lived in the area, and every one of them has always recommended Yates, as their 'Go to ' Fish and chips outlet. If you are new to the area firstly, let me tell you, that we incomers/ daytrippers, are known to the locals, as Chip eaters Personally, I don 't find this derogatory term. However, when I am this close to the Sea, I am aware that I should be able to buy, the best Fish Chips ever because the fish is so super fresh!? Well, if you are visiting, and if you want the absolute best fish chips in Walton...go to Yates. It 's a Fish Chip shop not to be mistaken with a Michelin restaurant... but, it is the best around, great portions, and a good price. You can eat in or takeaway, but whatever you do, its probably the best Fish Chips that you will ever taste. Highly recommend that you try it.

We wanted an easy family friendly dinner but unfortunately that is not what we got! When we let them know that our order was wrong, as ‘they thought we did not want the sausages’ ordered and asked for it to fixed we ended up bad service and attitude. This ultimately left 2 children without dinner. We won’t be using again which is a shame.
