Tap House Social has the worst fish and chips. Not firm and flaky, but soft and mushy.

The Sawgrass Tavern is my newest contender for the "worst fish and chips in The Villages." I don't know how they determine the portion size for the fish, but my plate only had two, small (and very thin) crunchy pieces of fish on it. Shameful for a $19.00 dinner! The fish was Haddock and, although I did not measure it, the "filet" itself was only about 1/2 thick - and I'm being generous with that measurement. With the breading (or beer battering as they claim it to be) the total thickness of the "nugget-sized" pieces was about 3/4 of an inch. Considering the thinness of the fish and the thickness of the fried coating, all I could taste was the fried coating.

That's pathetic. I ordered the fish & chips when it was McGrady's Pub and although not a huge portion, it was easily 4X yours and tasted delicious. I've rarely sent a meal back, but I would have that one!

I like the fried fish at Fenney Grill although they have great homemade potato chips. I’m not sure about their fries.
