The Trawl in Bridlington offers a mix of reviews, but consistent praise for its fish and chips. Some note the cafe's basic appearance, while others highlight the friendly staff and reasonable prices. The food quality and cooked-to-order meals receive unanimous acclaim. The traditional chippy atmosphere, with cash-only payments, adds to the charm.
