I found myself in Haddonfield, NJ with time to spare after taking my father to a medical…read moreappointment, which is how many small adventures begin. King's Highway has a charming little stretch of independent ambition, all tidy storefronts and quiet confidence. This is where you can find The British Chip Shop, which I had long intended to try, and at last my synapses and my hunger aligned. The place was empty when I entered, which always feels like it could be either a warning or a gift. A voice from the kitchen promised to appear, and did, promptly and kindly, seating me by the window like a character in a underattended play. I ordered the daily special: Pork pie, mashed potatoes, mushy peas, and added a Tango orange soda for good measure. The pork pie arrived hot and full of purpose, the kind of food that knows exactly what it is. The mushy peas were fresh and honest. The mashed potatoes, however, seemed to have lost the will to live, bland and harboring a cold, defiant lump of butter at their center. The soda did exactly what it claimed, which is all one can ask of a soda. Only later did I notice I could have swapped the peas and mash for chips, and for a few dollars more added cheese and curry sauce. This knowledge arrived to me too late, as most useful knowledge does. Next time, I will be wiser. All told, an enjoyable, slightly pricey lunch with one unfortunate spud based misadventure. Still, if you find yourself wandering this lovely town, it is worth stepping inside. Four stars, because curiosity was rewarded, if not perfectly fed.

First of all, Brandie our server was great. Unfortunately,…read morethis second visit may be my last. The place was uncomfortably warm. The food is great but taking into consideration me and my dining companion only had an iced tea and soft drink, me a sandwich, my companion a salad, one order of fries and extra dipping sauce. Understandable the rising costs get passed onto the customer, the final bill of over $71., we both deemed a bit much. Although the town draws a high-end crowd, sadly while I dined there were sparse other diners. I hope the place thrives on, although again, I felt the money spent wasn't worth it.

Really excellent fish and chips…read more I ordered the food to go and was worried my 20+ min trip would make the crispiness of the fish and chips be lost but it didn't. The food was fresh, batter was perfectly seasoned and crisp and the fish was soft and tender. It was good and possibly better than any fish and chips I had in the UK. The chips were also nice and crisp on the outside and fluffy inside. Service was very nice. The food definitely leaves you wanting more. I wish I had ordered more so I could be eating it now. I'll definitely be back! (FYI: I ordered the lunch portion which comes with one piece of fish. Also there's a 3% credit card fee.)

The Thistle Fish & Chips is a small restaurant in Lyndhurst, NJ. There is NO OFF street parking…read more Curbside only. I had to wait 25 minutes for a space to open up. As you enter there is a small waiting area and an ordering counter. Staff were very nice, cheerful, & accommodating while I waited for my order to be cooked and packaged. I didn't look into the dining room since this was a take out order. PROS: Cleanliness appears to be high on their agenda. My order consisted of Fried Oyster dinner, Fish & Chips dinner, and a Fried Shrimp & Scallops dinner. All came with French Fries and Cole Slaw. They also provided plenty of tartar and cocktail sauce. Additionally they have Malt Vinegar which is a must, at least for me when eating fish and chips. The oysters were cooked to perfection, as were the shrimp and scallops. CONS: The fish fillet was undercooked and the coating saturated with oil. I don't think the fryer was hot enough. French Fries were soggy because the steam from the closed containers. Easily solved by putting in a frying pan to crisp them up. Coleslaw was okay. As for Pricing, they are quite high for portion served. $30.00 for 2 shrimp, 2 scallops and a mound of french fries is outrageous. I can get a full seafood platter at any decent diner or restaurant for this kind of money. I think I'll look elsewhere when I get my next craving for this type of cuisine.

Luckily, I had Gordon Ramsay Fish & Chips on my list and it was on my way. I'd also been wanting to check off eating at a Gordon Ramsay restaurant on my foodie bucket list for sometime. This spot is going to count for me, at least until I can eat at one of his real-deal restaurants. While I didn't expect the place to not have a line, I was pleasantly surprised at how I was able to quickly place my order then grab a counter seat along the window. I was solo on this visit, so I didn't need a table, but those who had groups had to wait a few minutes to grab an empty one as the the restaurant was fairly full. The atmosphere is just like any pop-in, to-go place: casual, yet energetic, and feels approachable with a focus on serving quality food, rather than worried about a Michelin star. The only caveat is that the prices are a bit higher than most are probably happy paying, but you've got to remember its proximity to Times Square and the Gordon Ramsay brand. I got Gordon's combo which was a piece of cod, a piece of chicken, and three pieces of shrimp. All three were were crispy, flaky, and golden brown with a light batter that delivered a nice crunch, and the chips were hot and hearty. Exactly what you would you'd hope for from a restaurant built around this delicious British comfort food, especially with Gordon Ramsay's name on it. I'm not much for tartar sauce, so I can't speak to that, but I definitely appreciated the bit of lemon to add a bright burst of freshness. As it is more of a to-go/fast food style place, the presentation was surprisingly appealing for a quick-service restaurant. Paired with a ginger ale, it was a satisfying meal after a day of exploring the city.

Instagram reels led me here - and the Yelp reviews confirmed it. What a gem!! My co-driver (that's what he is today because we had a tiff lol) loves fish n chips. So far the best he's had is in Norway. Since Norway didn't award POtuS (see what I did there) the Nobel prize, I no longer feel obliged to think purely of the peace of returning to Oslo to our favorite chippery. Deranged. Anyway, we were juggling dinner ideas tonight and I remembered this spot. Even better since my mom is in town and dying for something different. I had no idea what to expect - even looking at pics. It's a straightforward place - 3 dine-in tables, and counter seating. We opted to eat in and what a delight! Here's what we got: -fish n chips -fish and popcorn shrimp -fried clams w cole slaw -2 New England clam chowdahs The person behind the counter brought our food out to us within 7 minutes - all freshly fried, crisp and hot. The fish was moist and flaky. The chips were salty, crispy on the outside and pillowy on the inside. The Cole slaw was divine! Soup is for tomorrow - the sneak taste I had has me counting down the hours. We got there just in time. Within 10 minutes we went from being the only people there to it being standing room only. My general seafood rule is if I can't see the ocean from the restaurant, keep it! But occasionally I'm wrong. As such, I'll be back for the lobster bites, soft shell crab, po' boys, and fantastic service! Note: it's on 22. If I was a cat I'd be down 8 lives after trying to cross back over to the Krispy Kreme for a lil something sweet afterwards. This place is worth it though. Send it!

He took my order himself, although there's also a huge tablet at the register, and he cooked and brought my food to me at my seat. He also checked up on me as I ate. My double cod fish and chips was served hot out of the fryer. The breading was crisp and clung to the fish, which is awesome, because I hate when the breading separates. And the chips were exquisite - crisp and fluffy with a nice dusting of seasoning. I was impressed that the menu offered cod as an upcharge from the standard white fish, which I dumbly forgot to ask about. I love when a fish and chips restaurant has more than one kind of fish! The sweet tartar sauce is not my thing. I prefer capers, lemon, onion, more acid. The breading was seasoned, but the fish itself wasn't.

This restaurant was so good that we went back a second night while we were visiting Philadelphia. On our recent annual trip up the east coast to visit the north east part of the country this year, my wife and I stayed a couple days in Philadelphia. One of the highlights of our trip in the way of food was Keatings Rope and Anchor. On the first night, we sat outside overlooking the water and it was very romantic. If you have the option of sitting outside or sitting inside, I highly recommend sitting outside. We were not that hungry on the first night so we both ordered salads. My wife ordered the chicken Caesar salad and I ordered a special of the day Caprese salad. They were both absolutely delicious and the portion to price ratio was right on par. We were absolutely exhausted on day two and we thoroughly enjoyed the meal from evening one that we decided to go back. I am so glad that we did. We both had the Keating's famous double burger and I normally don't find anything special about a burger in this case, however, The burger was cooked to absolute perfection. I cannot tell you how many times I have asked for a medium burger and it comes out somewhere between medium well and well done. In this case, there was just enough pink on the inside of the burger that it was hands-down one of the best burgers I've had in a very long time. The staff was awesome, the restaurant was clean, and we had a wonderful experience.

The salad was okay. A heaping serving of crab, with half an avocado on top and served on a bed of lettuce. So not the most complex of flavors, but it was fine. The margarita was a tad on the sweet side for me. The service was excellent. My server was friendly and attentive. He gave me a few recommendations for how to spend my time in Philly and was prompt with taking my order as well as bringing out the food (but given my description of my salad above, I would expect it to be easy prep and quick to come out). The ambiance was very nice. The hostess sat me at a window seat right next to the water. The view was gorgeous and a perfect solo lunch where I got to read my book and await for the wedding festivities. If I didn't stay at the hotel, I probably would not have gone out of my way to eat here, but it's a good option to have for vibes and drinks.
