Where's the best fish and chips?
Where's the very best fish and chips in all of Great Britain or Ireland??? I've been told that the best fish and chips can be enjoyed in a small city called Skipton, between York and Leeds in the mid-lands of England. I personally have had some really great fish and chips in a small Earls's Court Cafe, London. I'm about to head back to England, and would appreciate if you'al have any suggestions for the "very best" fish & chips throughout Great Britain or all of Ireland.

The chip shop in Inverbervie, just as you leave the town across the bridge heading north to Aberdeen. I had a very bizarre conversation with a couple originally from Aberdeen but who had moved to Canada whilst we were stuck in a Wendy's just south of Atlanta, GA because of a freak snow storm about 10 years ago...
Also the Ashvale in Aberdeen is supposedly pretty good - it's won quite a few awards.

Hi,
The best F & C in London is without a doubt, The Sea Shell on Lisson Grove. It is right around the corner from the Marylebone Station. I have been to Geales, The North Sea and the Sea Shell and I really like the Sea Shell. You can do take away or they have a restaurant. Evidence of how good it is can be found in the line of taxi drivers outside (they always know the best places to eat)
Enjoy

My best Fish and Chips ever (eaten out of their newspaper wrappings in the open air) were in the market near the docks in Grimsby -but its not exactly a tourist mecca. The Magpie Cafe in Whitby is very highly rated and Whitby is a lovely english coastal town, well worth a visit

Its a good question, as many fish & chip shops serve truly horrible food.In any area the best shop will be well known to the locals - people will travel for good f&c, its worth the trouble.So ask!
Many of the good ones also have sit-in.A good "fish tea" is sublime.

Living in Lancashire I would have to recommend the Lancashire Fish and Chip Shops like the oft awarded Belfield in Burnley (but not the most attractive Town to visit despite the Pendle Hill Backdrop). The Red Lion in Disley, Cheshire is a great fish place including its traditional fish and chips. A Chef I know recommends a Fish and Chip shop in Comrie near Perth, I have not eaten there, myself, perhaps other readers know of it? Apparently its on the edge of Loch Earn and freshly fished fish moves quickly between the water and real 'dripping'.

Hi
I endorse the Sea Shell in Lissom Grove.
But that is only one of the best in London.
The best fish and chips are on the coast, near a fishing port.
I've had better fish and chips in Morecambe, Folkestone and Grimsby than any I've had in London............. and much cheaper too.

Best fish and chips? I'd vote for The Old House in the hills near Bryn in South Wales.
The place has been in existence since about 1247; the atmosphere is fabulous, the portions are unbelievable and the quality is topnotch.
Reservations are not accepted, be prepared to sit in the bar and enjoy a pint while you wait for a table.
We're going back next month.
