Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted April 8, 2022 Paid Members Posted April 8, 2022 Great to see The Battered Cod is still in great form. The only bright spot in the miserable two years I spent living near it. Quote
Chili Posted April 8, 2022 Posted April 8, 2022 Whittakers is my local in Urmston. It won some award once (like every chippy seemingly has), but they were given the award by Keith Chegwin. Framed on the wall and everything. It always cracks me. Quote
Jonny Vegas Posted April 8, 2022 Posted April 8, 2022 The Frying Scotsman in Glasgow has that exact same Keith Chegwin award as well. Quote

I was working in Urmston when they won. There was a bit of a turf war with them and Charlie’s. 4 hours ago, Devon Malcolm said: Great to see The Battered Cod is still in great form.

Paid Members Thunderplex Posted April 15, 2022 Paid Members Posted April 15, 2022 Due to being ridden with Covid, doing our first Chippy Tea delivery tonight! We shall wait and see….. Quote
Paid Members Thunderplex Posted April 15, 2022 Paid Members Posted April 15, 2022 Sorry, forgot to take a pic. It was very nice indeed. The Fish has lost a bit of crisp, but 5 minutes in the air fryer brought it back. Quote
MungoChutney Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 (edited) We popped into the Coronation Cafe, an old style sit-in chippy in Glasgow today. It's been there since forever and they keep a copy of the 1972 menu on display. 24p for a full fish tea! I had the sausage and haggis supper and I let my son have the half pizza crunch supper because I knew he wouldn't finish it and I'd get the rest. Which I did.

Loki Posted April 23, 2022 Posted April 23, 2022 What sort of pizza topping is under that batter, dare I ask? Quote

One place near me has a more diverse range but it doesn't work as well if there's a lot of topping. Quote
Paid Members eugenespeed Posted April 23, 2022 Paid Members Posted April 23, 2022 Coming back from a football match in Kettering, stopped at The Frying Pan in Wetherby. Didn't take a pic as my phone was dead but absolutely gorgeous fish and chips. Would recommend. Quote
Paid Members eugenespeed Posted May 4, 2022 Paid Members Posted May 4, 2022 Coming back from Chorley in Monday, stopped in Kirkby Stephens. I've been through it several times but this was the first time I've stopped in it. Went to The Horseshoe chippy. Good restaurant, nice atmosphere. Fish and chips were decent, not best I've had, but not the worst either. As usual, no pics as battery died in phone. I need a new phone really, the one I have just doesn't hold a charge these days.
