It's been a long time since we called in here. I'm sure we've had fish & chips in at least a dozen places in several different countries.
Among the most memorable was one on the Isle of Wight where the offering was darn good served with Japanese Kirin lager beer but truth be told this place is still the best. Drakes in York was our most recent and almost equally great.
Kilkeel Pit Stop is king. Now it took me a long time but I've made the journey to Dolphin in Dungannon advertised as the big winner in NI to check it out but I disagree. Pit Stop for me.
The fresh fresh cod fish served up was just superb and I really do prefer glorious cod. The batter was bubbly light and melting. The chips just perfection. All that was needed was salt. The food had a trace of greasy which is unavoidable. This was a take away visit but it does have dine in seating and it's cosy.
The thing with all fish and chips is eat 'em when they are hot which in the case of this place is a very easy pleasure. The service is ok they aren't great conversationalists.
Go Pit Stop. read more
