Gosforth Chippy

I was delighted to hear there's a chip shop that uses beef dripping - a heat stable, brain healthy, underrated fat. Beef dripping is given a bad name by the modern media, but the myelin of which our brains are composed is produced 100% from cholesterol. I felt good after eating this! Not heavy & greasy like regular fish & chips. Really enjoyed the pineapple ring. The cod bites were great value - you get lots! Would definitely go again. Wish there were more chippys that use beef dripping!

I have been going to this chippy for the last few months now (once a week Friday or Saturday lunch time). I can honestly say the fish is lovely nice and thick flaky chunks and just the right amount for me most of the time although some people may want a bigger portion. Too many chips for me but better too many than too few and they taste lovely and like the fish seem to be cooked fresh. I believe I read a review about consistency about the size of the fish and that although it is difficult when you fillet a fish to get a consistent size it sometimes seems bigger or smaller each time. The staff are really nice and the lovely manager who cooks the fish sometimes gives an extra cod bite if she thinks the fish may be a bit smaller than normal and that makes up for most of the size difference. I would definitely recommend this chippy and will be back soon. (the happy smiling bald man).

I ordered from here although I read some of the negative reviews I thought I would still give it a go as there is equally good reviews. And I think some people just expect too much these days or they’re just complete Karen’s or have nothing better to do than complain so I thought I’d try it myself regardless. The delivery driver was lovely I had misplaced my £20 for takeaway so I had to give him £2 coins I was pretty embarrassed by that but he was happy regardless bless him he was lovely. The food was also packaged well and it was absolutely boiling! Which is always a good sign no one likes cold food. I thought the food was very nice the only thing I could point out is that me personally I like my batter on my cod bites to be really crispy but it wasn’t that crispy however I know this is due to it being hot and in the container so it’s understandable also the fish wasn’t too flaky and soft it was a little rubbery but it still tasted nice and I ate it. But it’s a high street chippy at the end of the day I think a lot of negative comments on here are people expecting too much for the prices they actually pay. But I can say its delivery was good the packaging was good, it was hot and it was tasty regardless also I asked for a bag of batter and obviously that was very nice. I would try this place again in future. Thank you!
