Fish and chips?.

[samboy]

High gang.

                  My local chippie charges £9.50p for cod chips and a wally.  Why is it so dear ?.

                   I can go in my local cafe and get a good dinner for £6.  I don't mind spending money

                    but i hate getting robbed. Stopped buying kebabs too don't know where they get the prices from.

we pay £15 for 2 pieces of fish and a large chips. that's for two people and there's always a shed load of chips left over - enough for us to freeze them and each have a small portion with another meal. And it's a decent slab of fish, too.

That sounds better value than yours! No wally though.

We have got some decent fish and chip shops locally but not as good as the one in Cromer , the last time we went up there at the end of the Summer we had , a middle piece of Cod ( well done ) , a large Plaice fillet ( well done ) and one lot of chips and it was just under £12 and worth every penny ,

A large haddock and small chips at The Admiral in Overseal costs about £8 and that would include some mushy peas. Enough for a good evening meal for two of us.

Still expensive in relation to cooking yourself a normal meal but do you faze in the fuel cost as well.

go for a carvery instead do you more good 

[Stephen-H]

2 fish 
2 any pie or pudding 
3 small sausage 
2 chips 

£15 - cheap as chips for a lot of food - Stockport - Manchester 

Should include your locations so we can work out a national average chippy price😂

I pay about 8-9 quid for large cod and small chips.  The fish would easily feed two and you'd need to be a world class glutton to eat the amount of chips you get.  East Northants.

i go all posh sometimes on my Haddock..........it gets a slice of lemon and white wine vinegar with maldon sea salt on the chips....

That will be a lot easier for me, than being a 'world class' shot. 🙂

How do you warm the chips back up? 😬

 

Never found chips any good re-heated.

2 haddock and chips £10 - £11 in my town , when you can get haddock that is always seems to be a short supply, plenty of cod though.

[OGGIE]

I paid £5.50 for fish and chips yesterday.  Enough to feed 2 people.

Just had a run over to Reed Street Fishery in Huddersfield, for about the hundredth time. Fish and chips £5.70, but portions are double the Lancashire side of the Pennines. They are also cooked properly in beef dripping. There isn't a chip shop west of the Pennines who make fish and chips as good.
