Salt and Vinegar is a great wee chippy in Shawlands in the Glamorous Southside of Glasgow…read more Shawlands has been lacking a decent chip shop (see my review of Blue Lagoon) pretty much forever so I really wanted to try this new place out as soon as I could. It's got quite a decent sized sit in restaurant including a mezzanine level which serves the same food you'll get taking away but presented nicer than I've ever seen in a traditional chippy. The take out is pretty speedy although expect to wait for fish. The chips themselves are really good and just how I like them. Well cooked, soft and not greasy at all. The fish was fresh, light and crispy and available in traditional batter and panko breadcrumbs but I went for batter. The battered sausage was one of the best I've had too, plenty of bite in it - some sausages can be a little limp... For a fish supper and sausage supper it only set me back £9.10 and that was a good meal for two people - they don't skimp on chips that's for sure! Looking forward to going back there soon and possibly trying out the restaurant.

The staff and fast, efficient and on the whole, very friendly, for takeaway servers. Meanwhile, the opening hours are good (none of this silly closing between lunchtime and dinnertime nonsense), the venue is clean and tidy and the food is just what a chippy should serve up. The chips are always reasonably fresh, well cut and cooked just right. As mentioned by Gareth, the fish is not the best, however, there is a wide enough selection to mean that another option can easily be found. Perhaps, a freshly oven cooked pizza? Mmmm...

In my previous review the chips I had bought didn't live up to my very high hopes. I'm now happy to say, after numerous visits, I have now had the chips of my dreams! I just loved Hooked and work tirelessly to spread the word around my friends and on Yelp! Everything I've had from here has been so great. The sweet potato chips are incredible. The mac and cheese balls are absolutely massive and so tasty!! The brie wedges are perfect! On my last visit I brought along some non-veggie friends and they loved everything they got - including the biggest serving of fish you've ever seen in your life!! I'm super happy I can update my review to a 5 star, Hooked really is the best chippy in Glasgow!

I wish there was a good chippy in Shawlands but they are all found wanting, however I'd go to another one before I came here again.

So, this might be why I also find it to be really friendly and welcoming - well as much as a Glasgow chippy can be. The shop is fairly big, always clean and tidy. It has ample queueing space as well as a few tables and chairs at the big glass windows. Shame, the view of buses going up and down Kilmarnock Road isn't all that pretty but still.. Meanwhile, the menu is pretty standard and isn't anything outstandingly special. But, they do a pretty decent container of chips and cheese that make the walk home from The Granary all the more pleasant. Another bonus, is the reasonable prices and quickness of the serving. They make dealing with Friday and Saturday pub closing look easy. That's got to earn them at least a star all on its own.

I arrived at The Chippy Doon The Lane at the right time, around 5:45 p.m., on Tuesday 16 July 2019…read more The walk in to the entrance was through an alley between two buildings and had signage marking the restaurant was getting near, as I approached not another person did appear. The name of the restaurant was in sideways vertical lettering on the building face. Making my way in the entrance, a host greeted me and took me to an open table. The dinner rush at that time was small, and I looked over the menu. I went with fried haddock, hand-cut baked/fried chips, small white orbs of pickled onions, and tartar sauce. For my beverage I went with water with lemon in it. Prices were excellent (for example the pickled onions were less than one pound) and the servings were very large, I was happy I was hungry. The fish was perfectly flaky and fried to a golden perfection. The tartar sauce was thick and flavorful and the fries not too crispy nor soggy. They were especially good dipped in the tartar sauce. The restrooms were marked by gender - male and female. I felt more at home with those terms than I did the terms man and woman used back in the United States of America. Found it as a form of confidence builder as a female solo traveler that night. It was still light out when I left and I felt safe walking back out through the alley and to my hotel.

It then reopens later to catch all the lazy and hungry workers on their way home. The prices here are excellent! Possibly, the cheapest I've witnessed in recent years - and unfortunately, I am a regular chippy eater. The special fish is very nice, if you can wait for it. The other usual suspects are much as you'd expect to find them. They also do pizzas, though sadly I've never actually went this step further...but they do have proper pizza ovens and I've seen others getting them. So, they're probably at least to a decent standard. Though, they usually have quite a selection sitting in the heated area ready to go, so this place is always good if you're in a hurry or just desperate to go home. Unfortunately, the thing that really could bring down this place is the chips. Sometimes they are extra tasty and good, other times they leave a lot to be desired. I suspect, they get away with this amount of hit and miss due to the lack of other chip shops in the immediate area. My new favourite nearby takeaway has became Da Vinci's due to the excellent pizzas but that's another story...
