On the subject of chippies, I'd be very sad if someone somewhere in the UK didn't open one called Neptune's Pantry in tribute to Bottom.

They're a Neptune themed/named chippy in Loughborough.

On the subject of chippies. The only good ones are ones that stick to the basics. Of there making anything other than Fish, chips, pies, and condiments. Then they should be avoided. Around Leicester the best chip shops are run by Greek/Cypriot families.

Actually I think the one in Loughborough that I mentioned earlier is that 300 Spartans one. Must have seen the Neptune one somewhere else.

All they do is bring it to heat with cornflour and then bathe battered chicken in the sauce.

Not true. My local puts a wafer-thin slice of lemon in the container too.

The best chippy I have been to is the Port and Starboard in Indian Queens in Cornwall. On the whole however chippies in the north are better.

 

There is a chippy near me called Ye Olde Reindeer, for no apparent reason that I've ever been able to work out.

Cornwall is the exception to the north / south chip shop rule, but then it does conform to the better at the coast rule.

 

Best chips I've had have certainly been at the Yorkshire coast.
