Best Chipper – Best of Dublin Awards 2014

Their chips I have to say are excellent.  Proper homemade chips like your mother makes, none of that god awful frozen chips carry on. You can eat in or take away. I opted to eat in. The chips were perfectly cooked, not too greasy and a liberal portion too with lashings of salt and vinegar. They were very satisfying.

Fresh Cod & Chips

The fresh cod was plump I have to say and the batter was less greasy and more light which is always welcome.  The fish itself however while tasty enough was a little more dry than it was flaky. A slice of lemon on the side while eating in would be a welcome addition.  It was no Fish Shop !

Fresh Cod & Chips

Do they deserve the best chipper in Dublin? I’m not entirely sure. The staff were friendly the chips were great and there was a steady stream of people in and out and footfall says a lot.  If I’m in the area again I’ll happily take a bag of chips.
