Wilky1878 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Just steer clear of all of Clackmannanshire if you want a chippy, our best ones are average on a good day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 the chippy at Kincardine is decent. ... and nothing better than that (ilarios?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 If you can find a decent one in Inverness will you point it out to me? Although having said that the Snowgoose offers a giant haddock with chips, mushy peas and tartare sauce for £7.50 - not much more than you would pay for a fish supper from a chippy. Decent selection of beers in there too. Lorimers was OK when I was last in there, about a decade ago. Inverness chip shops are extremely below par. The Rajah makes up for it though.

LongTimeLurker Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 ... and nothing better than that (ilarios?) On the old main street on the way to Alloa? Lots of supporters buses used to stop there back in the 70s and 80s, so they must have been doing something right. Think there was another in Auchterarder that a lot of buses used to stop off at as well. Edit: after a visit to Google Maps it appears to be on a different street from a chippy I vaguely remember from back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth.

Darren Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 The Silvery Tay in Dundee is very good, it's just a pity I can't get salt 'n' sauce. The Gorgie Fry is surprisingly good, too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a sister shop of the same name in Newport which serves equally excellent scran. Would recommend if you're ever visiting the posh bit of Fife.

Sonsrock Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 The best I've had was in Crail. Preferred it to the one in Anstruther.I went to the one in Crail last Thursday night, it was better than Anstruther. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That the one on the main road, around the corner from the Shed? Was alright I seem to remember. For Glasgow, I would go for the Chip Chink Inn.

jmothecat Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Best I've had in Glasgow is at a place called 'The Grove' on Argyle street, nothing fancy but they cook fish to order every time. Makes such a difference. Biggest problem I've noticed here is that unless you are fortunate enough to arrive at the right time, they will give you a fish that has sat in the hot display for ages. Once at a place called 'Philidelphia', on Great Western Road, I noticed they had some pretty poor looking fish sat in the display. I asked what it was and they told me it was cod, fortunately I wanted haddock so I assumed I would get it fresh. I asked for a haddock and chips, and they took out the cod. I said 'is that not cod?' And they said 'yes, but this is here now, you would have to wait for the haddock', I said I didn't mind waiting but the guy kept bagging up the cod and insisted I had that. It was chewy and had obviously been sat there for a while. That's my one visit to that place, unsurprisingly I have not been back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
