Very much miss the old days of Harrys in Guiseley but the tastes here bring the memories back. Great fish n chips, great batter, skip the basic and go for a special, take it out and sit on the wall outside watching t' world go by. Smashing!

Must be the best fish and chips in Yorkshire. We call everytime we return to Gods own land to taste the food of the angels. Simply the best.
