This is tucked round a corner(the Urmston furniture centre is on the corner directly opposite the TSB) Anyway, the first thing you will normally see is the huge queues, the reason is two fold-the shop is very small and the food being so fantastic attracts loads of people Along with the usual chippy stuff they also do loads of specials, have two curry offers each day, but hte real star of the show is the yummy fish which is well worth the wait. The queues ARE big but htey move the crowd really well. The staff are friendly and the portions are excellent. The parking may be a problem at the moment but honestly it is well worth the effort.

I know some people that travel quite a distance to get a fish supper from here and there can be quite a queue. Being in a wooden hut, it's burnt down more than once, however it simply keeps returning and the quality doesn't drop.

Surely everyone loves fish and chips? No? Well maybe not everyone, but with a name like the…read morebattered cod, and in a prime location to pick up on passing trade as people amble through Sale town centre, the Battered Cod must surely do well... The smell as you pass a chippy is enough to draw in all but those with the ultimate power of will, and this is completely the case with the Battered Cod. It opens early in the morning and serves fried breakfasts, coffees and tea-cakes to those shopping in town, and at some point in the day, the fryers come on and more traditional 'chippy fayre' is on offer. I commend the quality of this whole-heartedly; a portion of fish, chips, mushy-peas and gravy from here is as good as anywhere in the Manchester area, and whilst no more 'fresh from the sea' than anywhere else this far from the coast, the food is high quality, high-value, filling, and refreshingly british. Just don't have it for every meal!

Shockingly, I'd been a Sale resident for nearly eight months and had yet to have a local 'chippy…read moretea', so one lazy Saturday wandered into town and decided to try The Battered Cod for my typical order of fish, chips and curry sauce (kept separately, never poured over the chips until ready for eating). Yes, I have chippy-rules. Though admittedly it doesn't have a cool interior like Fish Bait in West Didsbury (http://www.yelp.co.uk/biz/fish-bait-fish-bar-manchester), they resemble the ever-so-British chippy of slightly worn counter tops and plastic chairs. There's plenty of seating in there if you wanted to eat in. My order came to £6, which seemed reasonable given the size of the fish and the portion of chips. And the verdict was, well, A-OK - the fish's batter was light and crispy, the fish itself was tender (if fish can be 'tender'...) and the chips were really good, especially the ones smothered in curry sauce. Om nom nom.

Dangerously, they're within a 10 minute walk. The inside is sleek, airy and spotless, the polar opposite of Theo's Fish & Chip Shop further down Washway Road (http://www.yelp.co.uk/biz/theos-fish-and-chip-shop-sale?hrid=juyGIOrS-pPyAklVgVdtUg). There are scrawlings on the walls to keep you occupied, all fish-related. Battered haddock was crispy on the outside and satisfying on the inside, the chips were plump and hearty - there were masses of them, so ask for a small portion if you're not a bottomless pit like me. The curry sauce for dipping was equally good. A wholly excellent takeaway destination, sure they could be cheaper, but then the food quality would no doubt suffer. Stay as you are SB, stay as you are.

Unfortunately "summer is coming" and the last thing my body needs is a massive chippy tea so I didn't expect to try The Sea Basket for a while. Last weekend however, my mum, ever the feeder, decided that on a rainy day a chippy was in fact the only thing that would do. I was happy I could park outside (although my poor car was a bit bashed from the state of the road, watch out!) and was even happier to notice a sign that they deliver (note to future hungover self). The fish selection is not the most extensive, the only traditional options were cod or haddock. They also sell "spicy fish", whatever that is, as well as scampi and fish cakes and the usual sausage and pies etc. My parents wanted to have haddock and it turned out they didn't have any so we all opted for the cod plus chips. A sign indicated all fish was responsibly sourced. You can choose either small or large. Fearing small would be too small (!), I asked how big was big? The nice man looked down to indicate the size of possibly the biggest take away box I've ever seen. So we picked small. Whilst waiting for the fish to be cooked, we were offered free tartare sauce and a lemon, which I thought was a nice touch. I think it ended up costing about £12 for three meals which certainly doesn't make it the cheapest chippy around. I came away feeling pleased though, the place looked clean and service was decent. So was the food any good? The fish was great actually, lovely batter, not soggy at all and the fish was tasty and moist. The chips were good but nothing special and there were too many compared with the size of fish. Naturally I had to eat them all though....screw summer!

Excellent value! A great selection of food and the portions are HUGE!…read more Best chippy in Sale :-)
