"you's guys" just descriped Ye Olde English's fish cake . . . beyond anything you will find anywhere in the country. The fish is great and the potato coating is outstanding. When I was up in New England I'd drive 40 miles just go get to Woonsocket and have those fish cakes!

In this area you will never find a place which serves fish and chips like they do at Ye Old Fish & Chip in Woonsocket. Believe me....... The warm water fish they serve down here can't compare to cold water fish. The best fish for fish and chips is served in England and is called plaice. Makes my mouth water just thinking about it. Wish we could get it outside of Jolly Old England.

Where in Woonsocket? I'll check it out this weekend. Grew up in CF but never heard of this place.

Glenview CC has great fish & chips on Friday, including vinegar. Our favorite lunch place and Sunday breakfast menu.

We went to The Athens last night for the fish & chips and were pleasantly surprised. We both had the fish fry, which had a large piece of what the waitress told us was haddock with FF, opposed to the regular that has 3 smaller pieces of fish. Good batter, fresh fish, good cole slaw, good grilled bread, and all served hot by an excellent waitress at a reasonable price. Since this is the only thing we've tried there, I can't offer an opinion on the other food, but you can't go wrong with the fish & chips.

Agree that Sir Will's fish and chips at Bone Fish Grill is very good. They also have the malt vinegar. Reasonably priced as well.

We have never been disappointed by the fish and chips at the Lighthouse. It's our go to restaurant anytime we want fish and chips.

Re Fish and Chips
 
We just enjoyed a weeks stay on the LSV and our 1st meal was at the Lighthouse Bar & Grill... Even though I am not a big seafood person my husband and friend are, so I was willing to give it a try figuring I could find something to please my taste buds..I had the Haddock (breaded with their corn flakes and then fried) and it was Wonderful!! I can say this will be a place we frequent when we return and hopefully become Residents in TV:)
We were located in Cottages just off the Square in SL and able to walk to so many places.. I must give a plug for our Sales Rep Dave Pape and his wife Diane for setting us up in such a great location! "Happy New Year" to Everyone!!!

Had fish and chips at Bonifay the other day. They were very good. A little different, but tasty.

Captain D's
 
The absolute best Fish and Chips is found at Captain D's on 27 just after 441 branches off in Leesburg. The product is fresh, cooked to order, and excellent. And ridiculously low priced.
Enjoy!:bigbow:

I did too. Thought they were ok but kind of small IMO. I've had them at Beef-O-Brady's and thought they were pretty good. Would get them there again! Both places had vinegar too. :icon_hungry:
