About Kristian Fish Co

Kristian Fish Co sits right on Union Quay, in the thick of the North Shields Fish Quay, which gives it about the shortest supply chain a chippy could ask for: much of its fish is landed and traded within sight of the fryers. It runs as both a sit-in restaurant and a takeaway, so you can eat looking out over the river or carry your parcel down to the water.

The menu keeps to the traditional line, cod and haddock in crisp batter with proper chips, alongside the usual fishmonger's-eye specials that come with being on a working quay. Its position among the Quay's bars and restaurants makes it an easy stop on a wander along the front, and a fresher one than most.
