Author Topic: Best Chippy in Liverpool? (Read 119273 times)

If you're ever over this side of the water visiting New Brighton, if you can't wander up the hill a bit to the upper bit of Rowson Street (Lucky Star is top notch for a Chinese) then seaside food you're looking at the Perch Fish Bar for the better food on the ones. Not ideal but the chips hit the spot. But yeah, Lucky Star all the way.

Oh and if you're ever in Bromborough, get yourself into the Golden Park, it's mainly a restaurant (all you can eat too!) but there's a takeaway option for the food, you won't regret it! Don't get the chips though, they're shite.

No mentions for Byrnes? Surprised. Proper chippy.

I mentioned it on the last page, seems these are all south enders who've got no idea, though.

Allerton fish bar.

my local, but Steve's in Aigburth is brilliant.

fuck me lads..put me on a bum steer with Steve's....don't know what the specialties of the house are but the Fish n Chips I had was decidedly average...small, overdone haddock and tasteless chips...a disappointing 5/10...

the search continues..

The welcome chippy on priory road !

We may have found a winner... Just had it from there, very nice indeed. Also with a generous amount of fresh chips smothered in salt and vinegar. That said compared to most places in Anfield anywhere would be nice. They must all get their meat from the same kennels and my piss has more consistency than the curry sauce from most of them... Anyway, anything else from The Welcome worth trying? You had the Salt and Pepper Siu Mai?

For those of us banished outside the Liverpool boundary and into Huyton, Chans on Pilch Lane is a decent shout. The Famous Gold Star on Tarbuck Road (opposite The Crofters) used to be good, but has gone shite.
Another decent shout is the Yang Sing on Deysbrook Lane near Melwood, the portions they give you in there would seriously feed a Great Dane!

Pistolero · « **Reply #378 on:** February 17, 2014, 10:37:35 pm »

Not strictly a chippy but 'Sizzle' in Garston, does the best mixed kebabs ive had outside of Abdul's (aka Hot Chillies on Berry St)...served on naan bread and lashed with tahini sauce...marvelous

More a Chinese takeaway - but the Xin Xin on Old Thomas Lane is seriously good!

Only skim-read this thread but very few mentions of Byrnes on Stuart Road. You lot should be ashamed. Bloody southend knobheads

quite right, boss chippy. When I lived near there in the nineties I was heading off somewhere dead early around 6:30am and the dad was off-loading the fish, fresh he'd bought from the market that morning, no frozen for him.

Funny thing about Liverpool chippies was I just assumed all chippies where run by Chinese or Greeks until I went to live in Nottingham as a student and they where all run by English..I found that very strange....but what they had which Merseyside chippies don't ( to my knowledge anyway) was sausages in batter ( mmmm!) and Savloy's...during the eighties at away game in the midlands on the way back we always stopped off by a chippy near Stoke and had savloy and chips....god! Im hungry now.

Yang Sing is a good chippy. Further up on Princess Drive you've got Jumbo's (not sure if it's the exact Jumbo's from years ago on Deysbrook shops before they built the houses, basically where Yang Sing is now). The portions in Jumbo's are outrageous, a large portion of jockeys does me and my mum and dad. Very nice food in there though and fairly well priced, always gets very busy on a weekend though so we tend to go late about 11 when it's died down.

Marie's chippy in Widnes is really nice, cheap, decent portions but has the weirdest opening times. Worth tracking down if you are into chippies but also a very small menu which is probably a strength.

Whoa there, you appear to have mistaken this for the Best Wool Chippy thread. Huyton I'll let slide but Widnes? Come off it

Went into a Chippy in Sheffield and asked for half and half. Woman looked at me like as if I'd strolled in there naked on an Alsation. Didnt have a clue what I was on about. Explained what it was and she was like "Rice.....in a chip shop?"

The rest of England is missing a trick.

Years ago my mate took me to a national award winning chippy in Leeds, supposed to be the best in the country, they didn't even do chips and gravy

Anyone tried the Red Dragon on Townsend Lane? Not many ratings on Just Eat but 99% of the Chinese places that deliver to Anfield I wouldn't feed to a dog.

Shanklygates · « **Reply #393 on:** March 20, 2014, 07:30:21 pm »

Probably not the best but Burger King are giving away FREE CHIPS 2moro at all branches. They're new and called Satisfries so no catches the website says. Fri March 21st only.

What's the name of the chippy in Toxteth that does the fish toast? Tasted it once and it was bloody lovely.

Fish toast? is that a more honestly named prawn toast?
