Getting a takeaway in Whitby
Whitby’s takeaways split neatly around the harbour. Pier Road, on the west side, is the classic fish and chip strip, with the Magpie Café’s takeaway among them. Either side of the swing bridge, Baxtergate and Church Street have more chippies and a Chinese. Up on the West Cliff, The Parade on Upgang Lane, Argyle Road and Windsor Terrace are where you’ll find most of the pizza, Chinese and the town’s Indian takeaway.
Seven of the fifteen takeaways on this page are chippies, which is about what you’d expect from a town that’s famous for them. If you’re staying on the West Cliff, the takeaways up there are a shorter walk than the harbour, and a couple of them deliver.
Whitby gets very busy in the summer holidays, during Regatta and Folk Week in August, and at the Goth Weekends held each spring and autumn. Deliveroo doesn’t list any restaurants in Whitby; its nearest coverage is Scarborough, about 28 km down the coast. When we checked on 31 October 2026, Uber Eats showed only a handful of places for the town, mostly pubs and hotels.
Good to know: on busy summer and Goth Weekend evenings the harbourside queues get long. Ringing your order through first and collecting at a set time is often quicker than queuing.

How we choose
We list independent takeaways in Whitby that you can order from direct, either on their own website or by phone. National chains, cafés and delivery-app-only listings are left out, and so is anywhere with a food hygiene rating below 2. Nobody pays to appear, and being listed does not mean a takeaway uses tastie. We checked every listing against its Food Standards Agency record and the takeaway’s own listings (its website, social media page or directory entries) on 31 October 2026. Menus, prices, opening hours and delivery areas can change, so check with the takeaway before you order.
Hygiene ratings come from the Food Standards Agency. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Spotted a mistake, or want your takeaway added or removed? Contact us.
