Ok, hot debate time, what and where is the best chippy in Sheffield, chips have to be cooked in dripping or lard and they have to sell big white bread cakes covered in flour.

I think the best is Johns in Stocksbridge.

best ones are where they cook there chips in vegetable oil

The best by far is Seafresh, at Handsworth :-) Yummy!

Best is in Padstow cornwall...but you said sheffield :(

erm, any of the admirals are good :)

Woodseats Fisheries.........best chippy round here, do's so well it closes early every day ! Leaves the evening trade to all the other local kebab, pizza, Indian, Chinese, chip shops.

Tip for all you Sheffield travellers- Don't ask for a fishcake in Chesterfield and expect a Sheffield fishcake (fish sandwiched between two slices of potatoe, then batered) as you'll get a Ross type thing (mashed tater, parsley with a fishy taste) But if you ask for a fish fritter you'll get the real Sheffield thing. In Nottingham you'll get Rossy thing whatever you ask for!
Couldn't take the pace so came back here to find local chippy shut and real shortage of fishcakes with no delivery facility!

Fishcakes ain't like our Fishcakes anywhere else, anyone know otherwise ?
Mind you some of the fish(or lack of) in our fishcakes, leaves a lot to be desired !

The best Chippy? The Baracuda on City Road. No question. My tubby gut is at least 50% the fault of their chips and battered sausage!!

Mmmmmm......chips and sausage. Dammit, why are there no Fish and Chip shops in Calgary??? :x

Tony's at Mosborough is the best round this neck of the wood.

i think your closest F&C shop is in Epcot....Florida! :D (bit too far to travel me thinks ;))

Best by far (the acid test is after you've eaten them - did they live up to your taste expectations?) are at the Chip Shop bang opposite the PunchBowl pub at Crookes. Cheap, massive white fish and tasty well cooked chips. Good batter and he never disappoints.

i go to darnall fisheries sometimes, nice, but the area is ****e, gettin a bag of chips may cost ya more than u expect if u know wot i mean.

I haven't found one decent chippie since moving to sheffield.

They either have the more batter than fish - or they wouldn't know a decent portion of chips if it slapped them about the face with a wet kipper.

My fav' chippy of all time is a small chippy in Wosborough Common, Barnsley. Their chips were great and in large quantities and their fish was sold in brick like sizes.

Never got any kind of stomach upset from them either - which is more than can be said for some chippies round ere.

There you go. I was about to say exactly the same thing. Their "dustbin lid" chip butties are the dogs.

I Agree RPG!

There is only one good place in England for chips and thats cornwall. Newquay, Padstow, Wadebridge all have good chippies. By far one of the best I've been to is Harry Ramsdens and Barnicutts.

Ther best one in Sheffield is probably Harthill chippy. Its gorgeous, its not in Sheffield but on the outskirts. Try it.

Paul

Best chippie for miles around used to be "Queenies" at Hartley brook,Shiregreen. people used to travel miles for their Fish.
Not sure if its still there as I now live in Norfolk, where the Fishcakes are small and rissole like"yukk". :(

Don't know about the best...but some grest names around here,choose from www.inthenet.cod or battersea fish home!

the best chippie in sheffield is becketts at nanor top. only trouble is you gotta be quick or you come back to find youve had your wheels nicked!! oh, and another downside is the staff. they all support u****d. tonys at mosborough is good too!

Admiral, without a doubt. Good chips and great sized haddock.

One at Swallownest is now under new management though?

Yeah - it's not an Admiral any more. Still does fine fish and chips, though :)

Get round to the Supper Spot at Malin bridge at the bottom of Loxley Road! I can speak from experience, as I've tried plenty and this one is consistantly excellent. (I last had some for my tea last night!) :D :) :D

We here at Sheffield Community Information have, over the past year, been on a search for the best Sheffield Chippy. Travelling across the city on recommendations from friends, family and work colleagues has been an interesting journey! One thing that became clear to us is, people all too often accept poor food/music/art/whatever as our society becomes more dumbed-down by the minute :-) People would rather eat Mcdonalds than a proper cheeseburger! Anyhoo, I was on a personal mission to find a chippy that could match the 'Becketts' of old (people living in S2 will remember), or even the 'Baracuda' of old (on city road, when it was run by a greek woman called mary). All to no avail. Until...

Manor Park fisheries were quite nice and alwasy seemed busy, Darnall were excellent one week, poor the next. But the winner, by a long mile, has to be Richmond Fisheries on Richmond Road. Not only is the fish whiter than white, but the chips actually HAVE SOME TASTE!!!!!

Thing is with chippys, they all have their off days. But if you go to richmond on a good day, you're in for a real treat.

So, whats the best Burger King in Sheffield :-)

According to the Sea Fish Industry Authority, Pages Fisheries in Castleford is the best Fish and Chip Shop in the North East of England.

Here in Sheff, I quite the one opposite the Owen building of Hallam university. Can't remember what it's called.

I agree they are scrummy.

Harlequin's it's called.

Hmm, maybe geoff could interview some of the local chippie owners, and taste their fish and chips, and see which is the best chippie in sheffield...

(*note: members of the sheffield forum will not pay for membership to a gym for geoff when he eats too many F&C's :lol: )

Is this the one on the corner your referring to? if so yes, this does produce lovely snap.

Marishells in Ecclesfield is a great little chippy, the nice lady who owns it often chucks in an extra piece of fish and some chips when i go in there :lol:

Just been to Darnall fisheries and they were absolutely awful.

'Queenies'? ..There's still a chippe on HartleyBrook Road but to be honest their chips are *£!% ....one I use is Norwood Fish Bar on Herries Road ....Yummmmmmmie!! :D

Valley Rd Chippie Nr Meersbrook Park used to be the tops, think it is till the same owners.

lowedges fish n chippie is great

That Chippie used to be called Geoffs who is the same person who owns the Abbey Friars on Abbeydale Road. I think he sold that one on Herries road. The Norwood chippie is ok sometimes but I have been past sometimes and there is an awful smell that put me off even buying any.

i've popped into darnall fisheries a few times on a friday night, lovely stuff...

I went again last week as I was passing. Was excellent again.

The best chippie of all I have tried are Bolehill on Crookes which was always excellent, proper white fish and good sized portions. Next best would be becketts on manor top doesn't seem to have changed much (their chips always stick together) for some reason.

Overall best would have to be bolehill at the bottom of bolehill road crookes.

Don't live in that neck of the woods now but would travel just for chippie.

Also excellent chinese on school road, crookes (new hing wah) travel every saturday (when not going out) for takeway from meadowhall end of town, Well worth the 30 minute journey

That's my mum and dad's favourite place too. Dad has promised us his "bohemian supper" when we visit in October. I can't wait!!!
It consists of fish, chips, mushy peas, white sliced bread and butter, and a cheap bottle of white plonk from Aldi. Wow what a meal! Plus the candle on the table-we'll be really pushing the boat out that night. (LOL, yeh right dad)
Dad has been going to crookes chippy for years and he knows the people who work in there. they always say "Usual Brian?" Like he's ordering a pint at his local. She puts a special piece in just for him. Hmmm????

one of the best chippies around,in my opinion is my local, the devonshire chippie of division st,there chips are very nice and you get big portions to,cheap aswell,and there chicken kebab butties with garlic mayo are absolutly fantastic!
beckets on manor top is very good to,though everytime i seem to go there its always very busy!

craig

I used to go to the Harlequin next to hallam uni, it was lovely. Sadly I read that the owners have or are retiring.

Newfield Green Chippy at Gleadless is THE best by far. Cooked in dripping, they are so moorish.

Can't say owt about the breadcakes though, never had em!

Richmond Fisheries!!

End of Story! :P

[RPG- welcome to the forum, but pleeease dont use CAPS and large fonts ;)]

Grenoside chippy (Main Street) is the one for me. Trouble is, its only open about 2 nights a week. Anyway, the chips n fish are delicious and excellently consistent.

garden village chippy,has big portions,great value too:D

Where exactly is this chippie? Is it townend? which road is it on?

For City Centre chippies, now harlequin has closed down it probably has to be Tony's chippy by Ponds Forge. For late night snacks the Devonshire Chippy isn't too bad.

I miss my trips to the village of Wainfleet, home of Batemans Brewery, near Skegness, where Sutton's fish and chip shop is. They have a coal fired fish friar, and their chips are fried in dripping. Can't beat it!

It's on Gleadless Road on the Newfield Green Shops. Not Gleadless Townend.

Get to the top of Blackstock Road and you'll see the shops opposite. Opposite the blackstock pub.

And if anyone is interested, I had a bag o chips from Manor Top Chippie and they don't come close to Newfield Green Chippy chips. So there you have it, Newfield Green Chippy is THE best!

I had some chips from there once and they were prety bad. Maybe they were having an off day, I'll try them again.

Cellarboy! Come up #2 about 190 miles! Go to any 'Joey's Only' in Edmonton. Very good, but they do give a whole new meaning to 'deep-fried'!!

Best chippy- the chineese on London Road
They use proper oil unlike standard english chip shops.

The chip shop on Division Street as improved much however.

follow up:
People have there own individual tastes so i do not think a 'best' chip shop can be pinned down.
They are in decline also.
As for tastes, some people at school were in to the Sheffield football clubs while some liked clubs from far off lands like Tottenham?
For others it was the ZX Spectrum whilst for others it was the Vic 20 or Texus Instruments, so how can tastes be pinned down?

Regards
Jay

Don't know which is the best - haven't tried them all - but the one on Herries Road, where the old Forum (no pun intended!) used to be has good fish and chips.

Aparantly the chip shop on London Road does good chips, but it never seems to be open.

That'll be the Norwood Fish Bar, my local so I must agree with you, ask for a haddock if you are hungry, we share 1 between three of us(and I am 15 stone). Used to go to the Fish'n'scales at lane top but they went downhill after they refurbed the shop, must be the new fryer?

Now comin from Grimsby this is interesting, as in Sheffield the prefered fish is cod, but over there it is haddock. A fishcake that you get here is called a fish pattie over there, but you can also get luncheon meat fritters like you used to get at school dinners.
Crookes chippies the admiral is good but they do large chips, bolehill are lovely chips when they change to new potatoes very sweet, "nice big fiiish" as he says but the mushy peas are tastless, you have to add lots of salt to them.
Have to admit i usually use the Broomhill friery, lovely fish good chips and they do loads of other stuff (cajun chicken, lasagne, home made pies, fish pie, kebabs and more) and at a very reasonable price.
Though have to say the best fish and chips i've ever had was at the pub in Applecross in Scotland. I have never tasted fish like that, absolutly fantastic. Think Nommedenet will definately agree on this too.

Brenda's chippy, down the moor, back of Woolworths. Best fish for miles!

Round this neck of the woods the two best are;

Batter Sea Cods Home - Howard Road, Walkley - fish always fresh and generous portions - plus a kids menu. Well worth a detour of several miles, especially round tea time.

Also, down at the bottom of Netherthorpe - can't remember it's new name - but an excellent chippie and one of the few that does scallops (a slice of potato in batter). Best at dinner time.

Good to see that Sheffield still has plenty of good chippies.

All time best ones for me (when I was a lad in the late 60's early 70's).

Ma Ibberson's at the bottom of Carr Road, Deepcar.

The Harlequin on Howard Street.

Walkers opposite the Broadfield on Abbeydale Road.

never go to the manor top chippie on city road. the chips taste like they've been boiled! and you get a ****ty portion for too much money... my advice is walk down to alberts!! but the best is ... baracuda!

I used to think it was a decent chippy about 18 years ago. Where is Alberts?

ps - I've merged your post in with an existing thread on the same subject.

Long gone I'm afraid..... I remeber Queenies... :)

Bit old this thread now but hey ho...

Best chippy in sheffield has to be the original, and Ainsley Harriot's favourite chippy, the Broomhill Friery. Despite the fact that there are now FOUR fast food places within about a 25 yard area of broomhill, that is the one that always has the queues. Really cheap too!

I use the one next to the Tesco's on Herries Road - pretty good
I used to like the one at Firth Park (Cypriots on Bellhouse Road) ut its gone really down hill.
The one opposite the Sicey used to be good buts its been a long time. Likewise Sheldons on Margetson's shops..

Aah Queenies :) When I was but a wee nipper we used to stop off on a Friday night and get the full works with scraps thrown in. Used to drive me mad waiting in the queue smelling all that good food:D

When visit Sheffield now occasionally take a walk up Grange Lane from Shiregreen upto Thorpe Hesley and go to the chippy on the junction - can't remember it's name and I know it's not in Sheffield as such but after a walk up the hill they taste great and lovely views down towards Ecclesfield and Shiregreen (and the M1!)

I can be a bit partial to a chip butty from the Broomhill friary. Very nice chips, not at all greesy!!!

P.S - Watch out you dont go across the road to Northern Sole fish'n'chips as everyone I know who has eaten there has later been ill.

8) Nah Den Ace........

Gotta be either Harlequin or Barracuda.

One's up Woodhouse are garbage..........some people swear by Mannings chippy..........

..........they say these bloody chips are **@?*!!!! :D

Regards,

Spacehopper.

Chips ? In Lard ? WTH ?

in vegetable oil, so you don't get saturated fat for a stat, and having my chips fried in pigs fat...

My favorite chippie is Abbey Friar on Totley Rise or TGIF on Shoreham St.

Regards,
Greg

Regarding Queenies chippie on Hartley Brook Shops, I came across this photo.
Take a look, you can almost smell the aroma of freshly cooked chips. Steve
http://www.hpac.org.uk/cgi-bin/hpac.pl?_cgifunction=form&_layout=picturesheffield&keyval=sheff.id=5281

Yes Christoph a chip butty from Broomhill Friary is excellent. They are better with scraps and mushy peas in and a bit of gravy. Really bad for you, a real treat occasionally.

i've done alot of fish & chip tasting and there are a variety of shops that i now go to.

in atterclife i love the robin hoods bay taste of the sea side, there chips are lovely and crispy and the mushy peas are beaut.

when i'm in the city i go the one on ponds street across from the bus station, mmm lovely chips and i love their fish cakes.

where i live in high green, the circle chippy is the best but it never seams to be open, or i can never catch it open also greengate lane chippy does superb fish & fish cakes oh and the best garlic mayo i've ever tasted.

but the best chippy i have ever been to isnt in sheffield, its in doncaster across from the college, i cant remember the name but the chips are the best, i get a small which cost 50p and i can never finish them. they server a large variety of food like southern fired potatoe wedges, gorgeous onion rings and i love there yorkshire fishcakes (a sheffield fishcake to you and me)

never go to the manor top chippie on city road. the chips taste like they've been boiled! and you get a ****ty portion for too much money... my advice is walk down to alberts!! but the best is ... baracuda!

I couldn't agree more about the manor fish bar. Absolutely terrible they are, yet there is always a queue! If I didn't think I'd get chased down the road for bad naming them, I would tell everyone in that queue to go to Alberts for a better deal!!!

Alberts is next to KFC on City Road. The man who owns it used to own the Intakeaway and has always been reasonable on price aswell as generous with portions.

Does anyone know whats happened to "scraps" that you used to be able to get from the chip shop? I can't get none for love nor money and I used to love em with my curry sauce!!

you can still get scraps from any F&C shop, well i do any way!

yeah, i totally agree. lived in south anston before moving to sheffield, and we used to drive to harthill as they were the best along with georgios in north anston!

not read the whole thread so might have already been mentioned..but does anyone remember becketts on the manor top......voted best chips in sheffield during the 80's sadly mr B..retired about 10 years ago. i still see him knocking about occasionally,rumour had it that when he sold his shop he also sold his secret for a considerable amount but i have to say the chips were never the same.

Dougies in Kiveton Park.. Opposite the bowling club...

its was RUBBISH, DIRTY, SMELLY, SMALL PORTIONS, EXPENSIVE and run by the dodgiest old guy ever.... but the chips were YUM YUM YUM..... the best ever...........

is that still there? don`t think its open anymore....
ever been to the fat fish in kiveton? just on that street across from the saxon? that is quite good! although when i was at wales, could never beat a chip butty in your lunch hour from the admiral!

Alberts on City Rd is good. The one he owned previously (Intakeaway) has now gone down hill since it changed hands. The last two times Ive eaten their chips Ive had to spit them out and chuck them away.
My favourite is Tonys in Mosborough. Town End chippy (Gleadless) is good also.
Most chippys nowadays tend to sell kebabs etc and their chips are never as good as a proper chippy.

albert still owns the one on mansfield road but his cousin from brum runs it.....

Is still Richmond Fisheries without a doubt and I know, cos I've been all over SHeffield in a quest to find the best one. Anyone who remembers Becketts on Manor Top when it WAS BECKETTS and not just Manor Top Fish Bar will know what I mean if I say that the chips are as good from Richmond and the fish is even better.

Some of the suggestions on here I just can't understand. I mean, I live on Townend and Gleadless Townend chippy is just DIRE. Tastless and expensive, you folk really need Richmond Fisheries in your life :-)

best chippy confirmed
Is still Richmond Fisheries without a doubt


Noooo!!! I think that chip shop is terrible! I once had a portion of their chips and they were dripping in grease!! Eww!

the name of the one on london rd makes me laugh...asalt and batterd.......

Becketts was fantastic...so much better than school dinners. Mr Becketts daughter Isobel was in my year at school. The chippy on the bottom of manor lane used to be good as well (city road end, near the church) but it changed hands recently and I havent been there since, so dont know if its still as good.

"Aparantly the chip shop on London Road does good chips, but it never seems to be open."

haha yeh, every time i walked past when i didnt want food, it was open, and then when i purposefully went, it was shut! I lived on abbeydale road last year, and didnt get food from there a single time, cos it was never open!

broomhill friery - have been there once and thought it was very good. have also been to the one opposite hallam once, again, very good.
i'm sort of new to fish and chips, never used to eat them reguarly until moving up to sheffield. best fish and chips i have had have to be from withernsea in humberside where my parents in law live. oh and toffs in muswell hill, london, before it changed hands - was excellent.

are there any good ones on or near ecclesall road/banner cross?

ecclesall road has a chippy on the corner of eccy road/rustlings road junction. Its not bad, as a student i'd say a decent percentage of my meals have been from there.

I've been looking for another one though just as something to compare it with around the hunters bar area. Anyone know anything?

"Mr Becketts daughter Isobel was in my year at school."

Then you must be in the same year as me!!!!!

There will be a new chippy opening on chaucer road parson cross soon or it might be open now.Also there is one on tapling road hillsborough which is good and cheap.

The Taplin road one is very good at lunchtime! Chaucer shops are full of takeaway options - does no one own a cooker in S5?

chippy i always remberd was the sampan chinese at page hall nice chips but you had to eat the chips quick or the lard would form on your plate lol:D

The devonshire chippy is a ****-head's delight.. serving up a beautiful mixture of chips, beans, battered sausage and melted cheese for £2.10.. **dribbles**

Cheese, beans and chips is a genuis idea, why don't all chippies have it on the menu!?

It's all about the "Hartley Brook Fisheries" best chippy ever! only open at dinner and then closes and re-opens for tea time but closes at 6. But really really nice! It's in shiregreen if anyone wants to check out our delacasy.

my personal opinion is that the old chippy that was on alexander road in swallownest was the best. Chips werent too thick, they were just greasy enough (!) and were a treat with gravy!!! Also, once when i was feeling adventurous, they battered and fried a mars bar, and a banana!!!

Now, ive grown up.

i think the abourthorne fish bar is nice i go down there for my dinner when im at school

You ought to try the Norwood fish bar near Tessco's on herris road.Its the best in sheffield.I always go in there.The staff are great also.

Does anyone know where I can get good fish and chips without the skin still on!? I really hate the skin!!

There used to be one just off Walkley Lane-on the right as you're coming down. Tiny place, in fact it looked like a garden shed, but the chips were fantastic.

Is it still open anyone?


Taplin Road's gone down the nick a bit. Not bad, but nowhere near as good as it was when the previous owners had it.

does anyone rember the oak house at handsworth?

the best chippie is BECKETTS AT MANOR TOP

by far the best chippie in sheffield is now on chaucer rd called friar tucks its owned by the same people as robin hoods bay attercliffe which won loads of awards

When I'm in Sheffield I go to the one in Beighton, the Admiral I think it's called. Very, very nice indeed. I have memories of Sullivan's chippy on Fife street, Wincobank in the 60s and 70s, which were the best I've ever tasted.

*drool* The Tasty Plaice in Bude, Cornwall, best F&C ever, no skin, white fish, golden chips and pineapple fritters! Following that I can agree with Admirals, then there's a really bizarre place in the middle of a housing estate in Boythorpe which is quite divine, Shoreham Street is pretty good, I prefer Chinese tho!
Under which circusmtances I recommend The Red Lion on London Road which has the best Chinese takeway and quite pasable chips too.

Was that the same family that own Sullivan's in Hornsey?

the friar tucks is the same family which started in scarborough and has succeded in btinging seaside taste and aroma to sheffield

we had a chippy meal in tony's in city centre last week inside the cafe, now usually its ok there.
But we went in at gone 2pm he cooked us a fish etc and it was the worst thing ive ever tasted ,it was like rubber.
you could tell it was cooked twice over, and the chips were just scraps.
i wanted to complain but my son wouldn't let me.so we wont be going there again.

the chippy's at stocksbridge -produce is very greasy and they dont shake the chips - they just go straight on to the paper.
everyone was glad when ours shut down and was replaced by chinese.


has anyone tried robin hoods bay chippy at attercliffe yet.
it was in the star .
chips ok in hillsborough middlewood rd,
also chippy down side road from asda at chapeltown -very good.
if anyone visits holmfirth, that chippy is very good.

yes i remember queenies being the best around at shiregreen
years ago.
atlantis use to be good till it changed hands.
is that one still there on howard st in town -it had a cafe too.

the best fish and chips ive tasted for years were at rhyll.
an asian couple run the shop and they can certainly teach the traditional english chippies a thing or too about how to cook fish and chips ill tell you.

in reply to tara as prevously posted the robin hoods bay chippie which was in the star for all the awards its won is run by the same people as chaucer rd parson cross named friar tucks so if you cant reach attercliffe they are there same quality and real seaside taste now if anyone could help me find a chinese as good as the lun fung on chaucer rd i,d be extatic

I agree John's in stocksbridge is the best! Go there evry friday without fail

Also good one n penistone near shell garage

Tony's at mosborough is well renowned in the area and is vey good

and one on station lane lane in chapreltown at the entrance to asda is pretty darn good!


There nothin worse than getting bad fish and chips! This is a good debate to inform people of good chippies so we're not left dissappointed!

forget chippies, bring on The Pork Shop!!!!!

Now you're talking!

Can't beat Beres!

Staniforths Bakery do a reyt Pork sarny!! Stuffing, crackle n apple sauce, yum. Im starvin nah!!!!

Disco cat, I'm not sure whether it is the same Sullivan family. The chip shop on Fife Street didn't actually say "Sullivans" on the door, just "Fish and Chips", but that was the name of the family. The shop was always packed, and they did the old Yorkshire Beef dripping variety of fish and chips, with amazing scraps. Excuse me, while I weep for the memory of their sublime fishcakes.

The Best is the devonshire chippy and the worst is moorfoot, not so much for the food but the service is the sit down cafe bit is horrendous - especially when your in there for ahangover cure!

Is it still open anyone?

Carnaby Fisheries?

*Yep, still open, still good!!

Agree with the poster above who said Taplin had gone donwhill.. Started when it was sold a few years ago :-(


(*Though I know the person who owns it, this is an unbiased comment :-) )!

you'd be struggling to beat the broomhill friery in terms of value. chilli chips and cheese, its almost cheaper than cooking yourself.

I would personally say the chippy at manor top. lets have your thoughts people.

Tommy

broomhill friery

suprisingly in Broomhill

Im with Tommy, deffinately Becketts.

Mat:thumbsup:

Stan's in Intake. Beautiful!

Try looking in this thread (http://www.sheffieldforum.co.uk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=171&highlight=chips):)

I think Becketts is the best too!

Cheers, threads merged.

The one on Valley Road, meersbrook is the best

You're havin a laugh, it's average at best. And it's hardly ever open!

My fave chippy is the one up derbyshire lane, near mitchells off-licence.

Michael_W is right

Woodseats Fisheries the best around here Had some yesterday lunchtime, absolutely smashing.

Don't confuse with Phoenix. opposite Big Tree, they sell chips you could only eat when you're drunk. And I sometimes do when I'm drunk, and I can't get rid of the taste in the morning.

We all have our fave local chippies, but the city centre is the space we all share. In town I like:

-the Devonshire [the only one in town that's open at night?].

-the Pond Street one [not the greasy spoon caff, it's a few doors down from there]. Very good - and little bottles of pop in weird colours for about 20p. A classic proper chippy.

-the one near the back of the Co-op/Argos/Boardwalk/Cannon is good. Horrible area but nice chippy surprisingly.

Any other central ones we've not mentioned on here? I'd hate to miss a good one.

-The one near the Moor/near Furnival Gate looks like a good 'un but I've not been in there yet. Closes at funny times I think.

..well being a connoiseur of the humble fish supper (having worked in the once wonderful Broomhill Friary!), I have to say that the chippie in Crosspool is superb..went last night and couldn't believe that the chips stood up in the paper..like cartoon chips, they were so well fried!! They also do a thing called a cheese, onion and potato fritter in batter..stuff like tht always sounds better than it is..but this exceeded expectations!!

PS..I'm not a shareholder in this business btw lol!

Here in Sheff, I quite the one opposite the Owen building of Hallam university. Can't remember what it's called.
Yes it was the Harlequin, best fish and chips anywhere. Unfortunately it closed a while ago, Bill & his wife retired. It's a cafe and takeaway now.:sad:

Aparty from its restricted opening hours the best chippie is Stanwood chippy at Stannington. Always top quality and great service

Best by far (the acid test is after you've eaten them - did they live up to your taste expectations?) are at the Chip Shop bang opposite the PunchBowl pub at Crookes. Cheap, massive white fish and tasty well cooked chips. Good batter and he never disappoints.

Ahh the Bole Hill Chippie, it rules without a doubt, can't move for the rest of the day after their big fish and chips, but it's worth it :D

Stanwood chippy at Stannington int bad

Supper Spot @ Malin Bridge takes some beating.

The best chips and fish shop I remember was 'The Little Wonder' on Attercliffe Road near the end of Whitworth Lane.

Albert Summerhayes the owner, was a master of the chip pan and a real character.

Happy Days!

The best chippie in Sheffield has now gone to the great big Fryery in the sky. It was the White house Andover St.

Ive got to agree with you there, Woodseats fisheries is the best, very tasty.

Best chip shop years ago used to be queenies on hartley brook shops. Its still there but has gone down hill big style and only open at dinnertimes due to kids hanging around. Best chip shop barr none has got to be the one near Tesco on Herries road shirecliffe. The fishcakes are to die for

My fave chippy is the one up derbyshire lane, near mitchells off-licence. Oh My God its disgusting had them yesterday before Newfied school kids got there....the dog ended up having my fishcake it tasted disgusting....

which one, tesco one or hartley brook one?

personally I dont think you can beat the row of shops on the Wicker. especially Imrans and Kebabish. Well nice. brill deals

the best chippie i have ever visited is marishell's in ecclesfield. they are excellent fish and chips. dont expect to walk in and get served straight away. this is the sign of a good chippie if theres a large queue then the grub must be worth eating.

I walked into the Silver Dragon Chinese Takeaway at Darnall. I shouted to man behind counter, Hey U. He said "How you know my name?"

The best bygone Chippie in Sheffield was Jackies on South Road Walkley: this turned into Battersea Cods home still very tasty, particular nice Fish...But now WOK this way???
Wok the chuff is going on!!
Woody

PS I like the flavour of the batter @ Langsett Chippie on Langsett Road opposite the old Kelvin scrap place.(Give it a try)

If yur ever out in the peak district, enjoying a summer evening, check out Bradwell chip shop.(Bradwell is just off the main road from hathersage to Hope, turn left at the travellers rest, before you get to Hope).
Easily the best chippy round these parts, good value too.But it is shut Monday lunch time, Tuesday evening and all day Sunday.

There is a great fish and chip shop at Woodseats. It's just above Iceland. Decent prices too.

Have to agree here; Carnaby Fisheries is fab, and I am fortunate enough to live a stones-throw away! Agree also about Taplin Chippy going downhill; it was never the same after Mary and Roger sold it several years ago, it was fab back then!

I'm with a few, any of the Admirals. Great large fish and non-gresay chunky chips.

Also had a decent fish & chips from a chippy in Rotherham, think it was called Fiveways fish bar??

Probably missed a thread or two but what's happening with the one on Taplin rd.
Are they refurbishing it .

Not much use to you lot but my local chippie is also a wet fish shop, so you can pick a piece of fish and they will batter it or crumb it .Then either grill it or fry it.

Salt n battered. about a quarter of the way up london road, mmmmmmm :0

The Broomhill friery is the best chippie in Sheffield by miles!

I wish YOU PEOPLE would STOP talking about fish & chips i get dead hungry every time this topic comes up to the top again !

i disagree i think the fish bar in darnall is the best nice and soft with big white bread cakes

My favourite Sheffield chippy is Pheonix on Woodseats as they're dead friendly and their food is always great tasting.

I'll be going to another very good one soon though as Angel05 and I are in the process of moving and our closest chippy is now Manor Top which is also brill.

We'll be there tonight as nobody ever cooks on their first night in a new house do they. Sod the diet for tonight. ;) :D

what about the one in Greenhill Village? Expensive, but they do lovely fish and chips, not soggy or greasy! Phoenix on woodseats used to be ok but its gone downhill. That new chinese opposite Farmfoods is really nice though...

I had some from the new Chinese opposite Farmfoods and they seemed to put more onion in my chicken & cashew than anything else. Looked to me like they'd tried to pad it out with the cheap stuff and skimp on the good stuff. Haven't been back since. Maybe I just went on a bad day though.

I much prefer Happy House on City Road (Manor Top) as their stuff is yum! Anyway, back to topic. :)

How come no ones mentioned Greystones chippie? Absolutely lip smackingly good. Huge portions, lovely fish, crackin gravy and not badly priced. Had pie, chips, peas and gravy for my lunch yesterday (£3.50), had to crawl to bed after for two hours a kip to aid digestion.

It also seems that the later you go the more you get. Catch em around 10ish and they pile it high!

I like that Chinese, they use really good fresh ingridients, loads of fresh veg and nice meat! Maybe they ran out a bit on that day and padded it out with onion! Theyre certainly better then the Chinese on Hutcliffe wood- less greasy noodles and a bigger variety of veg!

:(

i thought you were on about joiners ;)

Got to be the baracuda city road for me, but the gate at penistone aint that bad:D

hillsbrough fish bar middlewood rd, great fish n chips, and pizza and many other things that ive never tried because im on a diet.
honest!:heyhey:

i think the best chippy in Sheffield is one on Herries Road next to Tesco there chips are gorgeous!

There is a fab one on Wellington Street in Barnsley - that chippy beats all chippies!

Anyone know one that does cheese 'n' onion pies? Standard menu item in chippies west of the Pennines (Holland's brand usually) but seldom seen here. I miss that yellow goo wrapped in moist pastry.

The best one when I was a kid used to be Queenies chippy on Hartleybrook road.
As an adult B4 I came to Canada phoenix at Woodseats.
I used to stay in a caravan at Chapel St leonards and there was one there called Tonys chippy that did Sheffield fishcakes you had to bee there as they came out (7pm) to get one there was always a queue waiting for em.

Two Steps. Sharrow Vale road. End of debate.

It is fab but it's dirt cheap too. You can get a meal for two with loads of extras like peas, onion rings and gravy and it's always about £3.50. I went over there the day I moved up from London and when they said how much it was I nearly fell over! It would have cost about £20 down south.

The best would be outside the Leppings Lane stand at hillsborough.

The worst has to be by the tramline while walking to the Malin Bridge tram stop. I wondered why it was so empty. lol

The clown one in Whitby is my fav. chippy ever but yeah the Admiral ones are loveleeee....

Not sure if its still there as I now live in Norfolk, where the Fishcakes are small and rissole like"yukk". :(

Queenies is still there and they are still absolutely gorgeous

I love Manor Top fisheries (I think thats the name!), everywhere else is just a poor excuse for a 'chip shop' IMO!

I think the devonshire chippy is the best chippy in shefield their specials at 1.90 are a real treat go down well at dinner times

My vote goes to Admirals 2 in Eckington, top chippy

Joel

The all time best "chippy" is definately the one on the gallery opposite the bus station on Ponds street!! Its that good i forgot the name though!:clap:

I like the one at Mosborough (don't know the name)

They do lovely chips and make their own onion rings! (real onions in batter) B-E-A-utiful!!!!

I love that one too. But i love Whitby

Banner Cross Fisheries. If you live nearby, try it. If you don't, it's worth the journey.

Magpie in Whitby and Steele's at Cleethorpes are superb.

Haddock, please!

ive lived in sheff all my life an been to most of the chippies an know for a fact that broomheads on crookes road is the best..............

Originally posted by npatchett
Marishells in Ecclesfield is a great little chippy, the nice lady who owns it often chucks in an extra piece of fish and some chips when i go in there :lol:


yes i agree with that one,and now im back in the area i plan to go agin to see if it is the same ....

also got to add shirecliffe chippy on longley ave west.the chips in this shop are brown.its not open all day.but that is the one i will miss now ive moved,

where can i get decent fish n chips in sheff?

Devonshire Chippy (across from the Frog and Parrot on Division St) used to be nice, not sure now though.

There's one on Pond Street which is quite nice too.

We had fish and chips from the one in Crosspool last night, they were really yummy! :thumbsup:

Northern Sole in Broomhill

Abbey Frier Abbeydale Rd.......mmmm in fact I might not cook tonight & pay them a visit.

The Woodseats do the best fish and chips

A Salt N Battered on London Rd are ok too if you go past and they're open.

Stan's in Intake- beautiful!

the one at gleadless townend is great......next to Jacksons sorry dont know name

My fave of all the ones ive tasted is at Imrans on the Wicker.

Originally posted by Snakey_B

I agree! :thumbsup: It's opposite the Big Tree. The best fish and chips in town! :clap:

Broomhill Friery, all the way, mmmm mmmmmm! :thumbsup:

The one in Wadsley, near the Horse and Jockey. Excellent.

Originally posted by redrobbo

That one is called called the Phoenix Fish Bar and do agree are fab. The Woodseats is further down and is owned by the same people who own The Moorfoot.

my favourite chippy has got to be the one on manor top! my family call it beckets allthough thats not the name above the shop! its bloody lovely to chips taste so goooood!:P

I Went To The Jolly Frier On Hillsborough The Other Week & They Were The Best I'd Had In A Long Time.:thumbsup:

Admiral on Crookes is very good - massive fish.

tried Two Steps on Sharrowvale road when we moved in, wasnt impressed.

Best fish and chips ive had ever are at Inghams in Filey, or Skyliner in Leeds, ive not found anywhere which can replicate those!

The one on Attercliffe, is nice, near the Alloys place. Not amazing though.

G/F did retry two steps last week and said they were better.

Got high hopes for a new one called Paris Fish Bar opening near Low Life Records.. Fingers X'd

now whilst this post doesnt really contribute, i'd also like to know of nice chippys in sheffield particularly near eccy road.

broomheads in crookes (open at lunch and dinner time)
broomhill friery

had bad fish and chips from admiral in crookes but that was 2 years ago. same goes for devonshire chippy. bolehill fish bar was good but its now changed hands.

Beein from a Seaside town, i count myself an expect in this field

and the winners

Admirl in crooks

every nicer with a small tub of curry :D

:hihi:

Marishells in Ecclesfield - only opens on Thurs, Fri and Sat. Best ones I think. Abbey Friar on Abbeydale Road ain't bad either and the chippy down near Hillsborough Corner.

Originally posted by littleboo

Yes the chippy at townend is very good, I can't remember the name either (even though I went yesterday:huh:) their lunchtime special is paricularly good value.

The Manor Top one is good also and must get the award for the longest opening hours in Sheffield, it's even open on Sundays I think.

marishells to i agree on in eccelsfield

also when i lived in shirecliffe best one was shirecliffe chippy on longly ave west.,but funny opening hours tho but great chips always full shop.

if you want to feed a army on one bag of chips.then chip and scales on lane top can do that.

i agree wi manor top and also the one near tesco at shirecliffe and darnall fisheries..!!!!!!!!

Always gotta be Broomhill Friery :D

as mentioned, I don't think you can beat the two in woodseats, proper nice and I should know....

I was the served the worst fish ever this week - on my way home down m74....batter was rock hard and when I snapped it in half fish was barely there, just a solid shrivelled lump. :gag:

Can't believe they served it. Got my money back and went hungry until i got home!

Another vote for The Woodseats Fisheries and also Manor Top chippy :)

Avoid Derbyshire Lane chippy (the one near Mundella school). I used to live across the road but would still prefer to go elsewhere. Strangely, people seem to like them. Should Newfield school clamp down on kids coming out at dinner though, that chippy would go out of business!

The one near the commercial pub in Chappletown, The Friery in town and Stans on Richmond Road at Manor Top

How anyone - other than the owner - can recommend Abbey Friary is beyond me.

I've stopped going there.

Two Steps is hit and miss. Pies okay.

Give Banner Cross Fisheries a try. They don't disappoint.

But if you're near an Admiral shop, that's the place.

Two Steps on Sharrow Vale road is the best I've found, and it just happens to be sheffield's oldest chippy too.

Agreed, Bole Hill Chippy USED to be nice... They taste foul now :gag:

:rolleyes: the one at mosbough next door to the royal pub

Little out of the way but the chippy in Bradwell in the Hope Valley is excellent. Admiral at Crookes has got to be favourite in Sunny Shef though.

BEST CHIP SHOP IS PHEONIX FISHBAR OPPOSITE THE BIG TREE. THIS SHOP IS THE BEST IN SHEFFIELD. IT'S FISH AND CHIPS ARE AMAZING. IT ALSO DOES QUALITY KEBABS TOO. THERE IS ANOTHER CHIP SHOP FURTHER UP CALLED 'WOODSEAT FISHERIES' WHICH IS SHOCKING. ALL THE FOOD IS BLACK. I HAVE BEEN IN A FEW TIMES AND THE NEXT DAY I WAS DYING. I THINK ITS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE CHIPS OR THE DOGGY LOOKING FISH. THE WHOLE SHOP SMELLS HORRIBLE TOO. GO TO PHEONIX FISHBAR ITS THE BEST :clap:

I decided to give woodseats fisheries a second chance after previous bad experiences. The pheonix fishbar was closed and i was hungry so i had no option. The food was horrible. All i could taste was the greecy dripping. Next time i would rather starve. I would also like to add that 'muddycoffee' talks rubbish. He would not know decent fish and chips if it jumped up and bit his on the nose. "which it probably would if bought from woodseats fisheries" Phoenix is the best.:clap:

After growing up in the trade I am very particular. The best one I've found so far is TWO STEPS on Sharrow lanejust up from porter cottage. Chips are great. Gravy however needs improvement. The hardest thing to get right though is mushy peas - bu I would give theirs 7.5/8 out of ten.

I had a fish the other day which could've done with a bit longer in the frier - didn't seem like the fat was hot enough but this is an isolated case.

Friendly, traditional and take proper pride in what they do. And they can fry too!

I hate you all - there are no chippies in Texas :(

I can't wait for Christmas - I'll be home for decent curries and fish and chips.

My favorite chip shops in Sheffield were the one at Manor Top and the Harlequin opposite SHU. The best I had in a long time were from the Magpie cafe in Whitby. I also had a damn fine curry there at a tiny place in the railway station.

Oh god I need this food.

Again - I hate you all. :P

I shall just have to satisfy myself for the moment with the best damn burgers and BBQ ever.

I am proud that this post is still alive and kicking. having started it almost 3 years ago.

The last post took me back to my childhood, going around the corner to fetch the chips from 2 steps on a Saturday dinner, great days....keep em coming

andyb

Chippie, bottom of Greystones Rd, corner of first road on the left, leaving Ecclesall Rd.

The fish & chips I can highly recommend. TIP: If you're buying for two, only order 1 lot of chips, the portions are huge, as are the fish!

Can't speak for the rest of the menu, though if there's such a thing as a 'bad' battered sausage, I bought one from there the other week, the taste was enough to put me off that particular delicacy for life!

No argument with their basic fish & chips though --- Delicious!


P.S. Useful thread AndyB, so far I've tried a couple of local 'possibles' mentioned on here, I still return to the one I've recommended above though!

the best chippie is the one opposite the coop in town nr castle market gorgeous chippie chips :-)

1) Why had you not opened yet?

2) No option apart from Chatanogas pizza next door, KFC opposite and 60 yards away, Chinese takeaway opposite KFC, dominos pizza at the end of the Dale, 2 other chinese take aways, 2 more burger/kebab places, 3 indians, Blue room british restraunt right opposite, 2 italians, Big Tree Pub which does cheap ok food right opposite. All available without wandering from the main run of woodseats shops.

Muddycoffee talks rubbish?
You've only got 3 posts and they are all about Phoenix chip shop.

I'll tell you which one is the worst if i'm allowed to say- popeyes on west street. Horrible!

Caprice is right seafresh rocks and they are open late for them drinking munchies after closing

i had no where else to get fish and chips on woodseats 'muddycoffee'. That is what i ment. By the way i have just started on the forum that is why i have only 3 posts. Is you opinion more important than mine because you have 3000 posts. I think if you have made 3000 posts you have too much time on you hands. Also you may need to get a life.

The best chippy is on hartley brook shops. Can`t remember what it`s called now but it was once called queenies

Becketts on the Manor Top, now known as Manor Top Fish Bar i think??????

Brilliant chips with nice flavour! Top grub!

New chippy opening in woodseats soon. Next to Spar on Abbey Lane, called Poseidon.

one that is worth a mention is the flying fish on Halifax road - it serves up rare "chunky" fish and lots of chips with it, the staff are really friendly too! :thumbsup:

I must go there some time

I've had a lot of fish n chips in my time being from a seaside resort and I've been mighty impressed with the Broomhill Friary. It's cheap, really tasty and theyre good portions! Cant ask for much more.

I'm not too sure about the Devonshire Chippy though, living right by there Iv been a few times but tbh I think I prefer Popeyes round the corner. The chips are ok and get a good portion but im not too keen on everythin else, and I'm yet to see a smile in there!

The biggest worry I find with Sheffield chippies, apart from the weird fishcakes that I need to try, is why are there no meat and potato pies?? I cant find them anywhere!

A Salt and Battered on London Road mmm nice fish and chips, friendly staff, only drawback is it shuts at 2pm i think.

Manor top fish bar chips arent too bad they do looked boiled though!!! Their mushy peas are yummy too but i hate their fishcakes yuk! :gag:
Alberts on city road are quite nice as are Barracuda's.
In town i like Brendas behind woolies on the moor. :cool:
Not tried many others so i cant comment.:|

my favourite chip shop is the phoenix on woodseats:hihi:

Woodseats Fisheries is the best is Sheffield IMHO!

Has the devonshire chippy changed it's mangement ? it's alright now...

:clap:

or do i just not know good/bad fish and chips ? :)

I had some chips from the devonshire chippy today and they were alright although the lady serving did pour on curry sauce not gravy which i wanted and when i complained she said she'd give me extra gravy on top! She said that normally she only gives one little ladle of gravy and because she messed up i was lucky and got 2 ladles full!

Wow im a lucky girl!

Was also a bit intrigued by the barm cakes being kept in a bin liner???

Is that a joke? They're disgraceful! Not as bad as Two Steps across the road though, even the staff discourage you from eating there.....

The chippy in heeley green is great - and very reasonably priced too... Mini fish special is plenty and only 2.20!

gotta agree manor top is ok but a bit far for me ..... try the "codfather " at firth park oppo' kwik save , they even better yum yum thu & fri after 6 up till 9 prices are reduced too:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

No! I genuinely rate the chips from there. Decent cheap chinese food too.

The Harlequin chip shop, across from Hallam University until it recently closed down was the best chippie in Sheffield.

John's in Mosborough is a fine establishment.

Any ones of real note to add?:thumbsup:

Anyone remember Lants fish & chip shop on Attercliffe Common? ... c'mon, surely you can admit you are that old!!!

I'd love to see someone reply they can remember it, they sold lovely fish & chips when I was a kid.
