The Fish & Chip awards are won by establishments that enter them. That tells it's own story, self ramping. They should not need to enter if they are that good, they would be too busy to worry about some silly awards, full of self rampers. As for the price...good God, unbelievably pricey.

So not really a chip shop but a restaurant selling fish and chips in a tourist hot spot and charging premium prices because of the waiter service and vistas. Having said all that the food really did look top dollar and on a cold day it would be lovely to warm up and have a sit down , how warm was it in there as one staff member wearing a scarf ? It was slightly above my comfort zone price wise taking into account I always dine out as a couple and think a meal deal including bread and butter plus pot of tea at a more realistic £20 mark would bring in more customers.....a 9+ for me , almost there 👍

You can’t see Dartmouth from Torquay. The bay is Torquay, paignton and Brixham at the end. Dartmouth is around the corner from Brixham and not visible. If you want the best fish and chips head to Brixham next time. Brixham fish is some of the best if not the best in the UK.

Always enjoy your reviews Lee. The restaurant looked very nice, clean with genuinely friendly staff. Your meal looked really nice too. My observation would be that it was on the expensive side. There again, any restaurant in that location with that view is never going to be cheap as the business rates would be eye watering there I guess. Will definitely visit Ella’s and support them next time I’m down there - very worthwhile cause - great idea to have their own coffee van. Hope you rounded it up when you bought the coffee and mince pie.

If you want decent value fish and chips in Torquay harbour the green ginger wetherspoons is the best option and a free pimt.

I agree those ones weren't great 🫤 How can that place of won the award for 2023?! It isn't here yet! I HATE awards given out before the year starts, like the best mobile of 2023 etc, might as well be the best chippy 2050!!!! £2.10 for a sausage!!!!! WT.......!!!! No they haven't got the 2023 award because THERE ISN'T SUCH A THING YET!!!! 😆 Wow, Lee looked overwhelmed by the award, must be a very special one 🙄😆 Sit down menu charging £3.50 for a side of chips when they are £3.10 for a large on the take away menu, and Curry sauce is normally £1.50 but on that sit down menu its £2.50, same with the mushy peas at £1.50 vs £2 - not good at all!! And that's at a glance!!! On the board prices you filmed at about 7:33 that meal would have been £13.80, so they are charging £5.45 to eat in?! That's incredible!!!! A few pence on each item, yeh, but not that much! Blimey!!! Add the curry sauce and tea and it's only £17.20!!! They are taking the proverbial!!! Loving the look of the batter, chips and curry sauce! Looks good! Chips could have been cooked a bit longer for me, but still good! Peas look the right colour even though I don't like them lol. Oh gosh, if they include bread and butter then that'll add another £4.60!!! 😆 Nearly everyone has been the salt of the earth lately, a new saying!!! 😆 £6.45 more expensive to eat in, a disgrace! Yes, it looked good, chips slightly underdone, but I CAN't let that pricing go, really got me wound up for that! I'm going to have to go for a 6.2/10, they need to get a new dishwasher and drop the paper on the plate or something if it's costing them that much!
