i thought scraps were another yorkshire thing. i always get odd looks when asking for them elsewhere.

They calls 'em Gribbles round these ere parts...

£7+ for a large cod and chips. Not cheap but its within sight of the boat that landed the fish as the guy that owns the trawler owns the shop as well.

No not the Magpie, it was at Trenchers.

The 2 near me are £5.90 (£4 + £1.90) and £6.50 (£4.60 + £1.90) for medium cod and chips, the more expensive one is night and day better.

You would think it would be cheaper then

Hanburys in Torquay is the chippy I visit the most.

Not that cheap, but it's won loads of awards, gets fish from just round the corner in Brixham and, on a nice day, you can go and eat it on Babbacombe Downs looking over the sea.

If any of you are ever in South Devon I can't recommend it enough.

BTW - they call bits of batter 'scribbles' down here. Confusing for a Sheffielder (where we call them scraps).

Silver Street Fisheries? Is my favourite.

I once had fish and chips from a chip shop in Kensington.. cost £9! was st as well

I went here last time I was in London

Very disappointed I've no idea how it scores so highly on Tripadvisor. All i can think of is that londoners have no idea about tasty F&C.

It was flipping £12 as well

Just to add - my favouirte Manchester chippy (Tib Street) seems to have put its prices up. Chip butty has gone up from £2 to £2.40!!!

I hate this thread. Keep clicking on it & getting the "hunger" for a F&C.

Maybe a South Devon thing? Definitely 'gribbles' in my local chippy in Exeter.
