There is one decent one near us and they won the National Fish and Chip award 2011 which is Holts....  http://www.holtsfishandchips.co.uk/index2.php


A lot of it is down to how many use crap potatoes and crap oil.

The best Fish and Chips that I've ever had was in the early 80's on the North Circular Rd in London.

Rock Salmon (Dogfish) it was and it was the size of a Basking Shark but the chips were excellent as well.

I very rarely go to the chip 'ole these days.

I totally agree with what you say.

Haven't you recommended them before?

I feel a sense of dejavu coming on...

Really?


I don't remember that and I grew up there in the 70's.


There was an off-licence type shop at the top of Hughes Street near Holy Harbour, but I don't remember a pie shop and a greengrocer.


What era are we talking?

Mid-1970's to very early 1980's

You had the chippy on the corner of bennetts lan and Arnold Street and then on Arnold street itself next to the chippy was a bakery and then a short backstreet followed by a greengrocers. Whilst we used to get papers and magazines from the newsagents at the corner of Bennetts Lane and Elgin Street and used the chemist opposite the newsagents then, of course, the co-op was well used and mum used to go to the hairdressers next to the co-op.

Yeah, Ken Legg's.

Used to get our Swede's from there at Halloween before pumpkins were widely available.

And I got my first methadone prescription from Lee's chemist.

Happy days.....

You might have mentioned it in the thread that was about the police control at the Burnley V BBurn game a bit back?

I could be wrong though!  Smile

For pies & pasties, I recommend Dawsons & Whittakers in Tyldesley. Price's in Westhoughton and ye old pie shop (walsh's) in Bolton.

For fish & chips, I recommend Green Lane Chippy in Leigh and also Market Street Chippy in Atherton.
Seconded, Pies you can suck through a straw.

Coleman's original shop was opposite St Luke church on Chorley Old Rd. It was sold in the mid 70's and the second shop at the junction of Whitecroft Rd and COR. When I lived up there I thought the pies were great, my mum made um till about 78!!
