Whats the best chippy in your area?

Boundary or lindfords in market deeping both very good.

Another vote for a West Yorks chippie – the Mayflower on Pool Road, Otley. Often first point of call when back up North visiting my Mum.
There’s an ok one in Westbury on trym in Bristol where I live now, but none are a patch on any chippie I’ve been to in the Leeds area.
Oh and always haddock rather cod!

Chez Fred, Westbourne, Bournemouth.

Absolutely phenomenal, good restaurant section too and for £1 they’ll sell you a ‘Moggy Bag’ of fish scraps so your feline friend doesn’t miss out

I wish my local was ‘A fish called Rhondda’ but alas its Zero Plus, Cowbridge Rd, Cardiff. Tis ok though as their chips are excellent & is even endorsed by cheggers 🙂

Pye Green Chippy – just beside the big TV tower @ Cannock

Featherstone chippy

Both run by Greeks, seem to do a better job of doing fish and chips than most nationalities.

Tried Nardinis in Largs the other week, everyone had been saying how good the F&C were, ques out of the door – very dissapointing, overpriced, fish not great – Harry ramsdens do a better F&C.

Oh, thank the lord for the strong Leeds bias on here! I get tired of banging on about how sh1t the fish n chips are anywhere else, and especially how expensive they are on the wrong side of the Pennines!

Any hows – the Wayward Tyke in Ramsbottom is pretty good if a bit greasy. The new one in the middle of Chester (Blackstocks) is not bad and getting better but is nigh on 7 quid! Haven’t asked for scraps yet as the staff often look confused…

When I’m back in the mother county I tend to go to the Wetherby Whaler as it’s consistently good.

Haddock is the only way to go.

George’s dominate my area; one in Belper, Ilkeston, Long Eaton and the pub one on the A610. To be fair they do bang out decent quality nosh. The Crest of the Wave in Ripley is ok. The demise of the Ilkeston Flyer was tragic. But I would travel to Bedford just to eat at Salty’s, awesome food and the serving losses have beards and that’s and everything.

Andys chip shop on lark lane Aigburth Liverpool.

But also the lobster pot after a few jars opposite central station.

Fishers[/url] do a pretty decent mobile chippy around Surrey.

McDermotts[/url] in Addington takes the crown though. Bang on every time. Tad pricey for eat-in but worth it.

Sea Breeze in Dorking

You’ve got to be kidding! Only chippy in Dorking worth a mention is Superfish. Bloomin’ marvellous it be!

Hungary Hill Chippy, Stourbridge same as lunge or Balds Lane Fish Bar in Lye if i am feeling the need for battered orange chips

The Chippy bank in Ulverston….just superb. If your ever in town get your self in for a ‘sit down’ meal with a brew.

When I’m back in the mother county I tend to go to the Wetherby Whaler as it’s consistently good

After a series of catastrophes in the last 6 weeks before our wedding (including the reception venue going up in flames) we ended up booking the Pudsey branch of the ‘Wetherby Whaler’ for our reception , weird because we always joked that we’d take everyone for fish and chips after we got wed and in the end we did 😀

Only been once but would definitely revisit the Tower Fishbar in Penicuik. Handy for the Edinburgh crowd post-Peebles. Saltnsauce? Pardon?

Can we get a Leeds chippy top 5 consensus once this thread has run its course?

It’s all about the “Top Shop” in Auchterarder for me – they do chippies and chinese, as well as pizzas… Their chicken omelettes are second to none!

Unfortunately they’re 40mins from my house so not exactly local 🙁

I’m the best Chippie round here…oh, you don’t mean Joiner 8O!?

George’s in Long Eaton? Is that on Derby Road theboatman? I remember that from years ago doing great chips.

I don’t know any in Sheffield/Penistone area where I live that’re actually nice. But in Warington theres the Stockton Fryer in Stockton Heath and in Liverpool there’s the Lobster Pot on Ranelagh Street.

Barney’s, Brook Road, Flixton as said is the best chippy, mom mom mom mom

As disappointed with the Quayside in Whitby. Our local is better – Oakwood fisheries in Oakwood, Leeds.

You’ve got to be kidding! Only chippy in Dorking worth a mention is Superfish.

Another vote for Superfish here, but my local is Tolworth.

My favourite chippy in Leeds was Bretts.

The best chippy in my new area?

Smiths[/url] in Katong. It’s suprisingly good.

United Fisheries opposite Elland Road used to be excellent, but has sadly changed ownership a number of and has never returned to its greatness (abit like the boys over the road!)

So what’s the consensus on the Pollard’s place in Walsden? Overrated? I’ve always found it all right, above average at least (and opening at 9am & selling carrot cake helps) but a mate of mine down the road reckons it’s not even the best chippy in Walsden. Definitely the best-known though.

My favourite, although about 160mile drive is Squires, Braunton, Devon.

Did have a local chippy that only did fish and chips. Everything was cooked fresh, 15 or so different fish, the only extras were mushy peas and tartare sauce. Always a queue, for the right reasons.

Then the family retired and sold it on. The new owners added the kebab grill, burgers, sausages, etc. Instead of cod, plaice, haddock, they now serve “fish”. Say no more.

“Tony’s Top Chippy” in Longridge, Lancs.

Why?

On Wed and Thurs, Tony reserves one fryer for gluten free batter (and cooking chips)

mrs xiphon is gluten intolerant… so WIN!

Ilex chippy in Rawtenstall…they do proper gravy
