    The Fish & Chips looked fantastic 10/10 BUT remember you had 4 staff in the kitchen to prepare the meal & they had prior notice & would obviously pick the best fish knowing this was
    going to be a RUclips video used as an advert. I don't blame you for this BUT you didn't pre-warn the Whitby fish shops. So lets have a level playing field as we say in Yorkshire.
    By the way the Wensleydale Heifer looks a great place to stay or eat.

    WOWZERS! That looked absolutely amazing ! That would easily be a shared plate. Well done Mr McM for finishing the plate. 10/10 from me... well deserved! All the best to those Chefs too !🎉 Ty for sharing 🎉

    The fish and chips looked great 👍
    Worth noting is that at both this place and Ramsey's place where Lee has scored 10/10 Lee has paid upwards of £25+ but most traditional F&C shops have charge half that price.
    Has buying F&C's become a case of you get what you pay for ?

    For £26 that was certainly not what I'd call a Giant portion.
    Gravy may well have tasted good but the consistency was far too thin.

    So you can go to a luxury hotel, get a meal twice the size of Whitbys steamrollered scraps (that's what we call them in Edinburgh) and only twice the price (which makes them about the same price) I know which one I would choose.I couldn't see anything to fault it.10/10

    Hi Lee, just spent 3 night at the Wensleydale heifer staying in the “ night at the movies room” on their staycation deal. I’ve got to say the best Sunday roast I’ve ever had!, fish & chips fantastic, rump of lamb dinner, great. Fantastic breakfast & great people looking after your every need with a smile. Very glad I watched this video as it made us go to the hotel that we have never heard of before. An absolutely fabulous place that everyone should stay & eat at least once in their lives!!!!!! Thanks for the recommendation, we will go for another staycation there at sometime🤞👍

    , bet it was sweet as a nut! when i eat the fantastic fish we get here i poke the batter open with a couple of wooden chip forks before i put salt and vinegar on. there is absolutely no way i would have curry sauce or gravy! the best way to eat fish and chips is with your fingers, on the beach x

He also shares our name so he was Northern Lee and I was Southern Lee as our other colleagues use to differentiate.
    Location looked amazing and honestly the food looked like some of the best you’ve ever shown on the channel, I only just finished dinner after coming home but, that fish just made me hungry (and I’m on a diet 😂)
