Stephenson’s Market Plaice

Had the pleasure of trying Stephenson's Market Plaice yesterday. We enjoyed it so much that we wanted to leave a review as soon as possible.

You have the option of taking away, or eating in. We ate in - within the restaurant located upstairs, which is nicely decorated and very clean.

The young man who served us was friendly and polite. Our drinks and food came quickly and looked amazing.

Two of my party went for traditional Cod & Chips, with myself going for the 'whopper' size. There is definitely a huge difference, so if you do want to get the large size, make sure you have room!

Overall, we could not rate this restaurant highly enough. We will certainly return the next time we are in the area.

Amazing quality, Friendly staff. The large fish is massive and always well cooked. Decent quantity of chips and not too greasy either

Friendly happy staff and made to feel welcome. Quality of food was fantastic, great value for money. I ordered the large cod with matching chips and there was enough to feed 2 adults easy. Definitely will be back and thank you for an excellent meal experience : )

Lived in Durham for years and always went to Bells for fish and chips, they really are hard to beat, however we’ve now moved to Crook, and are miles away from Bells, visited Stephensons tonight for tea, and was expecting the quality to not be as good as Bells, I can honestly say they’re just as good, absolutely delicious, piping hot, white flaky fish with crispy batter, and perfect chips, will definitely be a regular here from now on, well done Stephensons 😊

Lovely food, staff really friendly and helpful. Desserts are gorgeous as well as being great value

Truly lovely food,never been disappointed,staff are so helpful and friendly,only place l go to for fish and chips, thanks

A very good fish and chip shop. Fish are always fresh and good quality. And the shop is very clean, absolutely British standard, thanks.

I visited Crook on Friday 23rd December on business and wanted somewhere to have lunch. Walking past Stephenson's on the market square I initially thought it was just a fish and chip shop, however, on entering I found that it also had a restaurant up a short flight of stairs. The upper space was modern and super clean. The staff were very friendly and efficient. The menu was very good a little something for everyone. I ordered fish and chips and I have to say, hand on heart, they were the best fish and chips I have eaten. I would defo recommend this restaurant.
