There's one in Hull near the docks that is good, shame I had to explain what a split was when I asked for split and a fish, got a very funny look for that one .... oh and the only chippy I know that sells potato pies, very odd

Surely, you mean babbies yed!

Aye.

Voted Best Chippy in the North-West.

The now closed bears paw and huxleys were good now closed as was the chipmunk on boundary road which has slid into mediocrity.

Chippies that keep their chips soaking make soggy crap chips.

I recently found Buckys in banks near southport - no frills great fish and chips.

Oyster Bar in Elephant Lane take some beating Mushy Peas are superb.

I hanvnt been near a chippy for years,but when i was a lad the bears paw did a splendid split fish 2 rounds of bread and a pot o tea,spent many a saturday afternoon with my nan in there.In fact i still go to the same building on the odd saturday night,at times i can still smell the fish

Anyone remember when it was Alfies, now that was a proper chippy. Alf used to chop the wood with an axe behind the counter to throw in the open fire stove that fed the friers, meanwhile Annie did the serving.
If Alf's was shut there was always Keith's (now Chans) a few yards away.
Probably the 2 best chippies around at the time.

Always knew it as Skidmore's - presumably his surname



As a fairly infrequent visitor these days my vote would go to the Chipmonk on Boundary Road.

I live in Standish and it is very over rated IMO

I don't reckon it is. You can't chip, babby's yed and gravy from Pepper Lane.

Chipmunk - End of thread
