Despite the large number of takeaways located on this particular stretch of the Bristol Road South…read morein Northfield, I believe I'm right in saying that Southside Fish Bar is one of only a couple of fish and chip shops in the immediate vicinity, which is somewhat surprising. As you'd expect, Southside is extremely popular with the locals, and it's not at all difficult to see why. The food is delicious, some of the best fish and chips I've ever had (coming from someone who doesn't even really like fish!), and the prices are excellent (a cone of chips sets you back an entire £1, small cod is £3, with generous portions). The residents of Northfield could be in dire straits with so few fish and chip shops around, but thankfully Southside is good enough to satisfy them all.

Serving the locals around the station area of Longbridge the classic English dish fish and chips,…read moreLongbridge Fish Bar harks back to the classic traditional chippy from yesteryear in its design and pleasant, chatty service. A pleasing departure from the increasingly homogenous, seemingly kit-built takeaways popping up everywhere, the shop has a real community bases business vibe about it, which is very nice, and increasingly difficult, to find. I'm not much of a fish fan, truth be told, but this is the one place where I choose fish every time, as it really does seem to be something special here. It's not the cheapest chippy in Birmingham by a long stretch (£4 for kebab meat and chips, my second choice, is more than you'd pay elsewhere), but the quality of food makes the greater expense worth it. That there's seemingly always people inside, no matter what time of day, is a testament to the quality of the food.

Fish & chips are one of those great English treats that you can't go without. You might worry about…read moregetting too fat from eating too much of it too often, but don't worry at all, because Ben's is situated right by the Lickey Hills; so you can easily walk off your meal afterwards! But before you go for your hike up the hills, Ben's is here to fill your stomach with some delicious, perfectly cooked chips in large portions. Prices are average to most fish & chip shops, and you can pick up a cone for £1. So the prices don't increase for the view or anything, which is great! Good old fashioned food at good old fashioned prices. Evening times, Ben's is packed full of customers, and queues often go out of the doorway; but the staff work hard and proficiently to make sure you're served as quickly as possible. That's unless you order fresh roe of course, which I have done in the past. But then you have to expect to wait around 10 minutes for this to cook. Although I have to admit, the roe was quite dry and a little overcooked on the time I purchased it. Maybe this was just a bad batch, but I always order the cod here now, which is very succulent and full of flavour.

Yesterday my friend and I went to this shop, this being my first time…read more I am not a fish lover, but we both had 'mini' fish and chips, with mushy peas. Well, when it arrived, it was piping hot, loads of mushy peas, the chips were perfect, and the fish ( which was quite big ) was absolutely wonderful. I have never tasted batter quite like this. This 'mini ' meal filled me up so much so that although I ate all of the fish, I very reluctantly left a few of the delicious chips. we chose to eat in, which was fine, and together we made the decision that we will certainly be returning here every two or three weeks. To sum up , PERFECTION.
