Their kebab is without a doubt the best I've ever had and is also great value. They also have Fish (obviously), fritters, sausage (battered or not), spring rolls, battered burgers and plus a selection of pukka pies. A standard fish and chips place with great quality and value
Best chippy anywhere. End of…read more Excellent prices. Incredible value for money. Huge fish only £3.50. Donner kebab just £3.20. Large chips £1.70. A lot of chip shops in Scotland will charge £1.70 for a cone of chips. Madness. Won many awards too. If you're after chips come here. And try the mushy peas too they are the best.
I thought Scottish chips were the best in the world, until I tried these ones. Not to say that…read moreScottish chippies, there are some really good ones. But Hilltop chips are so tasty and cheap. The fish is massive and I could talk ages another the mushy peas and I don't even like mushy peas (or so I thought!). They are moist, minty and super moreish. The food is also so cheap. I always have to go here when in Nottingham. Salivating just writing this!!

The only clue from the unassuming exterior were the small signs informing they have been ranked as one of the top 50 fish and chip shops in the UK. Step inside and you will find a clean and modern shop set out in standard chip shop layout, the real surprise is in the menu. The standard chip shop favourites are there, but along with lots of other home made additions I didn't expect. There are also poached fish and gluten free options available as well as a range of vegetarian choices. To top it all off the quality of the food is consistently really good and there is service with a smile. My favourite chippy anywhere.

But time your visit carefully as the queue usually stretches out of the door. All the usual meal deals are available with excellent chips and very good battered cod / haddock.

They were quick behind the counter, though. They had a lot of options with fish cake, pies, and all the different sides and sauces, but I got a standard fish & chips. The fish was huge, flakey, delicious. It came as a set meal with the chips an even with mushy peas so you don't have to order separately. I also got my favorite chips with curry sauce, which was nice and the sauce came on the side and kept really hot and nice over my trip home. Overall, quite pleased. If you're in the West Bridgford area and looking for some good takeaway fish & chips, head over to George's. I may even go again during my stay here, especially since they also put a buy-one-get-one-free coupon in your bag :)

In the center of town on high Street, I found this place. There's a small seating area inside, just big enough for a few (maybe four) people. Everyone in line was just getting food to go, so I joined the queue. I walked in, stood in line, and then made my order; "fish and chips, please". Fish and chips went in the fryer, and I started salivating at the thought of my first bite of authentic British fish and chips. When my order started to come up, I was quite confused. There is no way that much food was for a single order of fish and chips... but I was sadly mistaken. The portions here are absolutely gargantuan. Everything was fresh, piping hot, and delicious. I'm willing to book another trip back to England just so I could revisit this place!

The restaurant is underneath the main shop, but it feels cosy rather than basement-y, with white walls and plush blue velvet curtains. We had some french people stay with us once, and they really wanted to try proper fish and chips, so we brought them here. They weren't disappointed - who could be with light, crispy battered haddock and fluffy golden chips on offer, with proper mushy peas and gravy that tastes like it's been made for a roast dinner? Ommmm.

Georges is just that; an oasis of quality fish and chips in a morass of Midlands mediocrity. They pride themselves on sourcing fresh fish and decent potatoes, and seem to thrive on providing something so much better than the average chip shop that it's barely recognisable as the same thing. The restaurant is cramped and a little tacky, and it closes at 9pm. Best to opt for take-out, which is where fish and chips really belong anyway. Its just-off-the-main-road location and easy parking mean it is easy (too easy for those of us trying to save money/lose weight!) to drop in and pick up a couple of portions on the way home. Try it, and save yourself from average chip shop fare!
