I'd read some glowing reviews of this fish & chip shop so I kept it in mind. I don't eat this food…read morevery often now but I did eat a lot of it in my early teens, but that's a whole other story. So pulled up into the car park, two degrees outside and 'are we human or are we dancer' coming out of the radio as I turned off the engine. First duty was into a nearby supermarket for a soft white bread pan. When it's fish n chips it has to be tea, bread and lots of butter. A good sprinkling of salt on the fish n chips too. Carbs, animal fats and hardly a healthy calorie in sight. So into the chip shop to a friendly welcome from a man, certainly didn't look like Paula but it's a funny old world so I thought better than to ask. Two fish and chips please (or as we used to say: two fish suppers) £11.60 was required. I checked it was cod and he almost seemed taken aback at my question - he said, 'of course'. I waited a bit pleased that the food was being cooked to order. The portions of cod were huge, with fresh, white chunky and skinless meat. If you aren't sure how fresh cod tastes try it here as it's very fresh. I thought each chip portion was a tad mean but once home and in the plate it was generous enough. The food is cooked in beef dripping. There is no substitute good enough, groundnut, peanut, rapeseed, olive, corn oils none come close. The batter was towards thin and I like that, and to be fair the food sat in a take out bag until I got home and put out the plates and do on. Despite this the food was excellent, perfectly good food and still quite warm. A chip buttie was a must. Now I've eaten some of the finest foods on earth but I gotta tell ya the taste of a white soft pan bread chip buttie with a bit of salt and a generous slap of butter is wonderful made all the better with hot tea. The glowing reviews are right, it's a great place. The next time I want very good fish & chips I know where to go. Maybe next time I'll sit in and have it at its very best. Who knows now that oil prices have fallen the prices here should drop too.

My Trim friends go here every Sunday afternoon with their families and I can see why. The portions are huge...the Ribs JR starter could have easily been a main. The menu is rather expansive and covers everything from Italian pasta, to French favourites like Duck a l'orange, to American Buffalo wings to Asian-inspired dishes like hoisin chicken. Yet despite this globe trotting offering, the food is actually quite good. Service is friendly and very quick. And did I mention that the portions are ginormous?!? The early bird menu is great value too at under 20 euros for a starter and main. I've been twice now and definitely would go back next time I'm in Trim.

Pricey enough at €8.50 but the price was worth it. You get two battered fish pieces and a helping of chips, all tucked into a paper recyclable tray. The chips were good, had a unique taste to them can't figure it out but was nice. The fish pieces well they just melted in your mouth. It really is their speciality. on display is a few live crabs which I presume are on the menu for anyone who wants to try, maybe next time I might :) Only downside is it's a take away only (of course since it's located on a trailer on the pier) and with that if its cold or rainy you'll be queuing up and eating in the bad weather. Still if you are out walking it's going to be good enough weather It can also get very busy as there is a lot of walkers around that area And parking is limited in the area but you may find a space in front of the nearby yacht club.

Let me be blunt. We were served up truly terrific cod fish & chips (£6.3)…read more I was one who would have shied away from these trailer type food huts. Boy oh boy was I completely wrong here. We visit the harbour from time to time and we saw this trailer and saw just how popular it was. It was only by chance that we were passing through Kilkeel and thought well let's if it's still there. The cod was cooked to order and was the best I've eaten in years. The batter was incredibly light, crisp and literally dissolved on biting. The chips too crisp outside fluffy inside. I doubt any Michelin chef could do better or if they could it would be negligible and likely 12 times the price. What is proves also is that my home town doesn't have a decent fish and chip place. Not even close. The harbour was quite sedate and post Brexit it will be fascinating if the politicians don't shaft the fisher folk as this place should become a hive of industry. At present the Spanish & French and other European fisher folk can trawl up to 12 miles off shore. Post December 2020 it's 200 miles. Anyway what will be will be.
