Fish and chips is a classic British dish consisting of battered and deep-fried fish (usually cod or haddock) served with thick-cut, fried potato chips. It’s often accompanied by mushy peas, tartar sauce, salt and a splash of vinegar. Traditionally wrapped in paper, it’s a staple of seaside towns, traditional markets and local takeaway shops across the UK.
Fish and chips is popular in the UK due to its deep-rooted history dating back to the Victorian era when it became a cheap, filling meal for the working class during the Industrial Revolution. Fried fish accompanied by potatoes became a staple in fishing communities in the north of England. The pairing quickly became a national favourite, with fish and chip shops flourishing across the country. The nostalgic appeal fish and chips has passed down through generations, with memories of seaside family holidays, special treats and simple, comforting food. This cultural legacy keeps it firmly embedded in British identity today.
Many food critics and reviewers believe the best fish and chips are often found at the seaside, where the salty air and the sound of seagulls create the perfect setting. For the freshest experience, we recommend enjoying them hot from vendors or kiosks attached to amusement arcades or from chip shops and cafes on piers. Excellent fish and chips can also be found inland, particularly in town centres of seaside resorts, often at the local markets. Popular spots include Blackpool, with many options near the Central Pier Arcade, Skegness has multiple sellers near the clock tower close to the Tower Cinema Arcade, and Great Yarmouth has many kiosks and vendors located between Leisureland Arcade and Gold Rush Arcade.
