Warrington fish and chips help needed

[Molby]

help us out please lads

 

what is the best fish and chips to be had in Warrington, or v near Warrington?

 

is it Papa's?

[charlie clown]

Papa's isn't bad - probably as good as you'll get near the town centre.

 

The best two though are:

 

Panny's in Stockton Heath

 

Big Blue in Grappenhall

Cheers Clown

 

Are they open at lunchtime? No info on websites about this

And can you eat in?

[charlie clown]

Yes, all of em.

[Molby]

Great

This will be the focal point of today's business trip to Warrington

Will report later

[Ed the Wool]

I'll second Panny's.

 

Or the Neppy for those of us born in the 70's.

[charlie clown]

Neppy's been all done up and stuff.

[Ed the Wool]

The Neppy is where Panny's is now. Run by the legendary 'Mick the Chip'. Soldiered on with crinkle cuts well after they were fashionable. Same with the frying oil.

[Molby]

Just been to Pannys

 

No sit down capability so couldn't eat there

Thanks for nothing wools

[charlie clown]

So NOW you come back with your actual requirements. Typical fecking customer.

Big Blue and Papa's both have seating.

 

If you've been at Panny's you were about 600 yards from my house.

I fell out with it in its last years as the Neptune when I had some chips from there one Christmas Eve and spent the rest of the next 48 hours feeling terrible on the back of em. Pannys is spot on though.

Yeah it was always pretty filthy in the Neppy.

 

I grew up on Whitefield road Charlie, family still lives there.

[Swan Red]

what a chippy uses crinkle cut chips, f*** that right off

Big house posh lad!

 

I lived on Cawdor Street for a few years and grew up not far from you, on Walton Heath Road.

 

I'm in Appleton now.

 

The Sugar Bowl / Harry's / Stockton Friar now do a wierd thing with doner kebabs where they put all the salad and meat and chilli sauce in a tray and you get your unfiled pitta seperately. It's like a doner kebab do-it-yourself kit. I don't like it.

One of the smaller houses, but it was a great place to grow up. Used to deliver papers on Walton Heath rd and a lad in my year in primary school lived there. Mate lives there now come to think of it I think.

 

Price of houses on Cawdor street now. Mental.

 

Where's the Sugar bowl? Been wracking my brains to think of what Harry's was called before Harry's. Won't come to me!

Ha. It's the only one I think I've ever known. Proper out there eh?!

Lovely houses on Whitefield some of em - especially them that back on to the canal.

[Falconhoof]

So, frozen crinkle cut chips ?

 

That's last.

"can you eat in ?" what am I talking Chinese here?

 

Never had much luck in Warrington

They say there's a lot of money there but I never seem to get any of it

Was doing a complex property deal but I made a b****x of it

And not getting the fish and chips was the icing on the cake

I'm pretty sure they had a crinkle chipper. You whacked the spud in and it came out crinkle cut.

Oh well, that's not so bad.

I'm glad there's nowhere to sit down. I prefer a chippy to be stark, unfurnished, massive stainless steel battleship of a counter. A Hollands pie poster and nothing else to look at while you wait.

[Redwire]

Where's the Sugar bowl? Been wracking my brains to think of what Harry's was called before Harry's. Won't come to me!

 

 

It's what Harry's was called in the late 70s, early 80s. It had a grotty room at the back where you could sit and eat your chips. Molby would have been happy.

I'm gonna open my own, in Liverpool

I remember the grotty room at the back, it was more on the side of east avenue, with another door out there. I'd completely forgotten it was called that though, don't remember it at all.

f***ing unbelievable. Absolute sub human scum.

s*** name.

The best wool chippy in my book was the seafarer in Northwhich. Proper sit down caf area as well Molb where you could get your chippy served on a white plate with white buttered bread cut into triangles and one of those stainless steel pots of tea that had enough for 1 & 1/2 cups.

 

Props to Foodcraft in Winsford on account of their home made pies but no seating area.

[JRC]

The Blackpool Hinterland (identified as such on the basis that the town itself is an urban singularity to which the normal rules of physics, society and chippies don't apply) - i.e. Fylde, Fleetwood, Thornton-Cleveleys - preserves the full sliced white bread, milky (and often sugary by default) mugs of tea, old biddy servers who call you Love and Young Man (I'm 55) and formica table sit-down caff experience as virtually the default chippy setting rather than the exception, which is rather charming. That's without including the new, gentrified version of Seniors

[cymrococh]

Browns Fish and Chip Shop in Pembroke is the essence of this. Best Fish and Chips ever.

 

Only chip accompaniments on the takeaway menu are fish, pies and sausage rolls.
