I disagree on Chippy's unless they've cleaned up their act in the last couple of years. Chips are not supposed to be soggy! Any fish and chips place batters when you order... unless they've got some weirdo frying technique!
IMO. Chippy's AKA Surlies is great if you're into paying too much to have apathetic hipsters take your money but I've never been impressed with the actual food.
