I think I can do worse than these two. The nastiest fish and chips that I've eaten in London was from a shop in Cowley, West London. The offering consisted almost entirely of grease-soaked batter accompanied by dry chips. The grease seeped through the wrapper onto my trousers which I had to change. However, the most disgusting fish and chips ever came from St. Austell in Cornwall. I bought a meal deal, basically f&c, mushy peas and a drink. The fish was a thin white line encased in thick, tasteless batter. The chips were soggy and the drink warm. I looked at the plate wondering if I could eat anything other than the peas. I left feeling hungry.

The further in you go, the more the price goes up. Even Wetherspoons, the prices are more in Central London, rents & rates are just so much higher there...... As an aside, nothing wrong with tea with your fish dinner (and i tend to find tea comes from India.... Do you have secret underground tea growing facilities under the Yorkshire Moor perhaps?..... lol) unless in a pub, then a pint of ale with your fish is a must! And don't be upset about being charged for two cod portions, i've always found scampi to be more expensive than cod, so you've had a right result there my son...... and yes, i am a cockney!....lol Good vid though.....

The problem with *ANY* frozen food is the breakdown of the tissue as the cells expand as the water freezes. This is very much the case with seafood, especially fish. Whatever advantages were had by being snap-frozen quickly after catch are lost and then some, by the physics of it. Thawing doesn't help much either, as the water escapes from the now broken cells. 2-3 days in a cool refrigerator for fresh fish is fine.

All chip shops now are very rarely run by English People hence lower quality in most places and lots of Frozen Fish out there, but there are a few foreign run ones which are Ok too. Always avoid any fish and chip shop which sells Kebabs and chicken etc as these are usually the worse.

I used to work in Neal Street many years ago, which is the next street over, so this was our nearest chippie & by the looks of it it's changed a lot in the last 25 years! I don't think it was ever regarded as amazing, but it was quite OK & no complaints, most people usually eat outside I remember, under an awning. Rents in Covent Garden were starting to go crazy when I was there, so they will be beyond astronomical now, so you do have to bear that in mind, but yes for that, i expect near perfect. You can usually tell good from average to bad straight away, as I always look for batter that looks like dry, spikey coral, that was shiny & very flat, it's not going to be good. Shame, it's been done up nicely, but they haven't a clue obviously.

To be honest it's easier to skin a fish when it's frozen, as you can pull from the tail and it comes off. Frozen fish, if good quality is as expensive as fresh and sometimes tastier as it is frozen within hours of being caught...but cooking from frozen is not good, as you say it can be very watery, the trick is to leave it in cold water and it literally defrosts in no time.

Worst fish and chips I have ever had in my life (I'm over 60) was in skegness in a franchise for "harry ransome?". A really well known northern England brand. The fish was classed as boneless, and when I cut through the batter it was also almost fishless. It was a thin musch. It was not cod, pangassi or some other cheap shit but not cod. And the chips were thin, limp and anaemic..and I mean white. My wife is German, we were over getting another car and, making it a bit of a holiday so travelling back over a few days. B&B in skeggie, see the sights etc. Saw the chippy, told her best in the UK. How disappointed was I that she thought this is the best. I cannot remember another time that I have never eaten a meal that I have ordered. But this was beyond the pale (no pun intended).

It's not raining here in the Canaries Lee. The sun is shining, the Tropical beer is good and comes in frosted glasses (vaso frio) and the tapas is excellent. You're in the wrong place mate!

Real British fish & chips should always have Non-brewed condiment (NBC) on instead of malt vinegar. I always ask if it’s Non-brewed condiment or malt vinegar if is malt vinegar I go elsewhere. NBC is also known is Chip shop vinegar and gives fish & chips that authentic taste. Most fish & chip shops use NBC.

I was surprised at your reaction to the slice of lemon with your fish! Controversial this might be but, a squeeze of lemon is the natural addition I'd find to my fish & chips anywhere or, when it comes to it, on any fish from smoked salmon to scampi. Most chippies include a slice here in London, eat in or takeaway. And here's something which you'll probably not like but, smothering chips in vinegar absolutely turns my stomach! Vinegar, ffs???!!! How do you ever taste the actual potato? Yes, I know it's a tradition here (for some reason I'll never understand) but, honestly, UGH! Also notice you've never had a pickled gherkin with your meal. Me? Love 'em! Oh well, if we all held the same opinions, the world would be a dull 'plaice' (whoops, sorry!) 😂 Keep the videos coming, whatever. Totally entertaining and addictive! xx

I only use a little sprinkle of real chip shop vinegar also called Non Brewed Condiment. It’s what makes British fish & chips taste so unique. Malt vinegar like Sarsons isn’t traditional and I’d rather go without vinegar if it isn’t non brewed condiment.

Lemon certainly enhances the flavour of any fish ,,, as far as the vinegar is concerned I do like vinegar on my fish and chips. I will not purchase Sarsons ( malt vinegar ) again, quite expensive here and I actually prefer a very light sprinkle of apple cider vinegar.

£34???!!! That shocked me when I heard that - 2 fish, chips and peas with tea or pop you’d be looking at £15 at our local chippy. I appreciate you sat indoors so it was likely to be a little bit more expensive but £34! I didn’t pay for it and I feel like I’ve been ripped off

OW MUCH was heard echoing around Convent Garden. Actually there was a story yesterday about a dad buying fish and chip takeaway costing £54 for 4 people in London.

You get a fish tea in Scotland. Its fish and chips, bread and butter and tea. Can't believe your freind hadn't had tea with fish and chips. I'll be in London at the end of July, I know where to avoid now

Fish and chips, bread n butter with a mug of tea is traditional! Mushy peas, pickled onion, gherkin etc all optional extras! My favvourite is just fish and chips, salt and vinegar and sat on the seawall choosing away!

@@robertlower6212 aye, I just like fish and chips on its own with non salt or viniger. The majority of people like salt I think. Up here the chippies will allso lather them in brown sauce. Fish and chips from a decent chippy, though, dish of the Gods.

Your first mistake was thinking that any fish and chips could be as good as in Yorkshire...
