So on my last disaster trip out this way this shop was the one that rung in the most recommended for where I should have tried, with such a glorious day I decided take a ride out for a chippy tea and see if it was all well grounded.
The Shop : sat next to a local big Tesco it's very easy find parking and whilst only open for evening service they still have enough hours to serve to decent convenience.
Now I usually don't get swayed by a chatty owner but the guy came out whilst I was eating and asking about what I thought and had, I hadn't mentioned I'm a "chipfluencer" but he even threw a couple deep-fried babybells and a Cadbury crème egg my way, I want to say it won't juice the score but honestly when I've said before sometimes it's not just the shop it's the people, on this occasion they were playing on both angles and I can't not take his genuine love and passion for his shop and customers into account.
The Meal : cod special with curry and the option to have half n half battered/orange chips was a welcome addition.
The fish was beautifully soft and fleshy with flakes of white gold like an Olympic medal, great crispy batter that maybe borderline on workman's thickness but definitely no stodge.
The Price : £10.90 is a little up there but portion size and quality more than backs this up and still cheaper than going the big fast food giants so I'll take it.
Overall impressions : I wish I had double the character limit to big this one up and really dive into it but even that said absolutely worth the ride, justified the recommends and I can see a return trip just for the pleasure of it down the line, well played sir, well played.
