Located along the Cherry Hinton's High Street, also referred to as 'The Village' shop row by locals, Cherry House is a two in one: chip shop and Chinese takeaway. From the outside, this looks like your typical neighbourhood food stop. For me, it's come to be more unique.
I credit Cherry House as being the chippy where I experienced my Salt & Vinegar Chips epiphany. It's here where I finally and properly tried one of Britain's finest foods.
I do not have pictures to prove it, just the knowledge of repeated satisfaction after having a regular (but completely shareable) £1.30 portion of perfectly crispy chips--always ask for it open/unwrapped so you can munch whilst you walk out--topped with an appropriate ratio of salt and malt vinegar.
It's a selfish, guilty pleasure on late nights (when most other places have shut). There's usually a short wait, but that's because food is always made to order. I can't say I've tried other things on the menu, thus only 4 stars, but the staff are always nice and their Chips will always suffice! read more
