    We dropped into Capplemans around 6pm on a grey Tuesday night in June and it was busy and bustling…read morewith a mix of locals and tourists. We waited at the front of the shop as instructed by the clearly written sign which is prominently displayed as you enter the cafe (a fellow who ignored this instruction and found himself a table was greeted with the lovely put down of: "I suppose you will be wanting a table for one then sir"). After a couple of minutes we received a warm welcome from the young waitress and we were seated at a window table. The decor at Capplemans is very 1980's - think of an elderly relatives living room and you will get the idea - and the service has similar old school charm (if you are following instructions). This approach seemed to suit the majority of the clientele and while it's a little bit dated it did not detract from what was a very fine fish supper. I had a whale of a haddock with a small chips and a portion of mushy peas which came included in the price. Crisp batter, fresh fish and well cooked chips - it was a very tasty meal and even with a bottle of Black Sheep to wash it down I struggled to make it to the finish line. B was similarly pleased with her cod supper and also struggled with the portion size. We left after the best part of an hour with our wallet hardly any lighter and in serious danger of slipping into a food coma. This is a good thing .....

    This place serves fish 'n' chips that'll blow your mind. The fish is cooked as you wait and the…read morebatter is light and done to perfection. The chips aren't too greasy and you even get the option of 'scraps' (all the crispy bits in the fryer!). The best fish n chips we've had for a long time. Just missed the Scottish 'chippy sauce' we're used to!! The only reason I knock a star off was because the lady that served us was rude and off hand. We got a take-out and she made a deal of not understanding our accents. She also didn't realise I'd given her £20 and not ten and had an attitude when I stated a needed change of £20. Maybe she was having a bad day or doesn't like Scots!

    So, this place definitely needs a glut of reviews, as it has had quite an overhaul I think, since…read morethe other pictures! It is still very much a restaurant with a chippy on the side (the chippy is also genuinely awesome), but snick past the chippy to the right, up the stairs, and you're in for a proper seafood treat. We were staying in Whitby, but after a Christening in York, we didn't know if we were going to be able to get up because of the sheer amount of snow the moors had had- so we didn't book- but were able to grab a table on chance. The setting is gorgeous, the tables are lovely, and the crockery is so lovely too (some of it made by a local artist- they even took the time to write down a list of suppliers for me). We had Thai fishcakes with chilli jam Mackerel with grapefruit apple and the most gorgeous peanut satay Scallops (perfectly cooked, of course), poached egg, caviar Sea trout "with textures of butternut squash" and toasted seeds Seafood linguine Poached autumnal fruits with ice cream Pear and salted caramel bread and butter pudding with hazelnut anglaise. Best food, best service, best setting, so full. All of that washed down with red wine, and seriously fresh, and stupidly reasonably priced. Lets just say the coastal road was blocked on the way home, and we skidded on the non-gritted ice having to go the other way- it would have been the most epic final meal ever. If you don't go here, you're daft.
