Records show that a Mr. William Taylor was working the business as a fried fish supplier back in 1907.

After making it through two world wars, the chip shop was named Yorkshire Fisheries 

and has kept the name to this day.

In 1989, the shop was bought by George and Val Vasiliou, and they upheld its reputation as the best chippy in town. When they decided to retire in 2005, George’s niece and husband took over the reins, wanting very much to keep the quality and standard just the same. To this day, the current owners strive to serve the best fish and chips in the area, and have won many awards including the Quality Award from the NFFF, Certificate of Excellence from Trip Advisor, and the Gold Taste of Lancashire Award.

Yorkshire Fisheries is beloved by both local residents and tourists. Indeed, many customers have been coming to the shop since they were children and, now grown, are bringing their children and grandchildren with them.

 

A lot has changed since the early days, when potatoes were delivered by horse and cart, and diners sat on long wooden benches. Online ordering and delivery is available for customers who can’t make it to the shop, and a comfortable, newly refurbished restaurant greets those who can.

 

 

Proud of the food and service, Yorkshire Fisheries looks forward to welcoming one and all and to serving the best fish and chips in Blackpool.
