Poor Mr Ramsden will be spinning in his grave. I have just been to the 'flag ship' restaurant in Guisley. Hold your heads in shame, this was a very poor eating experience. £8.29 gets you a small... more

    Advantages Advantages Good prices, lots of parking, family environment

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not much veggie option, some problems with parking for disabled

    As I had to go to Harry Ramsden’s restaurant the other day on a mystery shopping assignment, I thought I might as well let you lot on Ciao benefit from all my tireless observation, unselfish eating of fish and chips on a weekday, and my extraordinary ability to steal a menu under false pretences. HISTORY OF THE RESTAURANT This particular Harry Ramsden’s (Harry’s from now on) is the biggest fish and chip restaurant in the world, a fact which the other half finds hard to believe, but like I explained to him, most fish and chip shops don’t have restaurants. Not only that, but this Harry’s is the ... more

    Advantages Advantages Gorgeous fish

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None

    Harry Ramsdens is the world`s most famous branch of fish and chip shops. Now, I must admit I`d never heard of them until my husband took me to the one in Guisley in Leeds. God, what a sheltered life I`d led eh! SOME FACTS Harry Ramsden`s first opened in 1928 as a small green and white hut measuring only 10 feet by 6 feet. This was in Guisley(Leeds) and is now the most famous and most impressive fish and chip restaurant. The hut was modified over the years until it now seats over 250 people as well as a take away building, but the little hut can still be seen on site. The restaurant had it`s ... more

    Advantages Advantages Good food

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Expensive and busy

    Harry Ramsdens is listed in the Guiness Book of Records as the busiest fish and chip shop in the world. It also has a reputation as being the best in the country which as a local living about a mile from the place find hard to believe. Harry started his business in 1928 from a small hut in Guiseley (on the main A68 from Leeds to Ilkley) and went from strength to strength. The actual record for most portions of fish and chips sold in a day was set in 1996 by Harry's branch in Melbourne Australia, just over 12,000 servings. Many famous people have visited the Guiseley outlet, including most ... more

    Advantages Advantages Worlds most famous fish and chips

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Image has slipped dramatically due to careless directors

    Harry Ramsdens used to be my favourite fish and chip restaurant in the world until about two years ago when they let themselves down and just recently they have REALLY let themselves down again. Harry Ramsdens at Guisely, near Leeds, has this massive fascia on the front which is like a long porch. EVERY Sunday this used to be full with people queueing to get in to sample Yorkshire's finest fish and chips (and if they're Yorkshire's finest they must be Britain's finest!). About 10 years ago they then opened branches all around the country and thw world. I know there is a Harrys at Blackpool and ... more

    Advantages Advantages Great Food

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Aittle bit dear

    This is the best fish and chip shop in the country. There is no debate, this the best. If you do not believe me then go there and have a meal. The restaurant at Guiseley is the original Harry Ramsden’s and is still the best, with not just great food, but a real sense of history (First opened in 1928). When you arrive in the large car park the first thing you notice is the area designated for queuing. Yes, this restaurant gets so busy that people will queue for long periods to get a table. Coach parties are brought for the famous fish and chips and nobody goes away disappointed. According ... more
