Madra-dubh 15 Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Portland Bill in the East End used to be a cracker but must admit we certainly dont lead the way in fish & chips......theres a lovely one ive been to round Camborne way in Cornwall big place right across the corner of a junction someone might know the name of it......or these another nice one smack bang in the middle of Brighton Pier called Palm Springs or something like that get a beautiful bit of cod there............i think i,ll write down a few that get suggested to try out on my travels cant beat a bit of cod and chips. Dont know the names ,but opposite Leytonstone station its pretty good , Or as you drive in to Epping from london ,left hand side after Tescos very good as well.

Bosun11 537 Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Gnash, i'd disagree and say I much prefer chippies down your end than up here, the North West is piss poor for decent ones. I love it when mates of mine from SE London come up an go into our chippies and ask what fish it is.. Only to get a proper dumb arse look back from the staff because to them a fish is just a fish, white with batter on it, they ain't got a clue as to what it is... No different types like down your end and boy do I like that variety, love a bit of Rock me... The South West, as has been mentioned have some cracking chippies, so to do York's, with batter better than anywhere so, if i have to name one in this area, then The Swan in Southport is my fave...

WILF 46,646 Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 (edited) Here's another conundrum......at what point in the country do " fish suppers" & " mushy peas" begin ?......is it when you get past Watford or what ? Edited July 14, 2013 by WILF Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Its_grim_up_norf 577 Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Had magpie fish and chips a few months ago and they were shit.overpriced shit at that did you go inside or from the chippy bit? ive not been inside but heard its overpriced. Must be doing something right though, people still pay it. the prices in the chippy bit arent bad like. nice too. Used to be a better one over the other side of the river do you know on the abbey side? mr chips or something but thats overpriced now, portions are shocking. Places win a few awards and thats it, down the shitter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gnasher16 30,046 Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Dont know the names ,but opposite Leytonstone station its pretty good , Or as you drive in to Epping from london ,left hand side after Tescos very good as well. The Leytonstone one im not too sure about but the one in Epping directly over the road to Tescos is Smiths.....old man Smith started in the game probably 100 years ago they,re on the grand sons maybe even gr grand sons now there used to be Smiths in Chingford,Walthamstow all over the place think they are down to 2 or 3 shops now.......not sure id rate them alongside some ive been to in coastal places but still decent Quote Link to post Share on other sites
