For true (batter-dipped, deep-fried) fish and chips, I've really liked Miller's Ale House on 441 at the north end of The Villages. Just don't look at the calorie count on the menu - it's about a full day's worth of food, calorie-wise. I believe this is cod.

For something different (and crunchier) the fish fingers appetizer at The Fenney Grill is pretty tasty. The fish are rolled in corn flake and fried. The Lighthouse in Lake Sumter Landing serves a similar concoction. It's better than it sounds. I think this is haddock in both places, but I'm not sure.

For something NOT fried, the food truck at Edna's On The Green serves a blacked fish that is particularly tasty to me, though I think it's best when they manage to do it with redfish (which they can't always get).

I have generally not been impressed with the fish & chips at any of the country clubs I've tried. I think even Red Lobster has them beat, and I'm not a huge fan of Red Lobster. I mean, it's edible, but it's just not that great.
