7 Chain Restaurants Fans Say Have the Best Fish and Chips
Fish and chips is a classic “pub grub” meal, popular from seafood spots and diners to upscale restaurants and steakhouses. White fish like cod, pollock, and haddock is battered and fried to golden perfection before being plated with thick french fries and tartar sauce. Some people prefer coleslaw, others like curry sauce or marinara—there is no wrong way to enjoy fish and chips so long as the ingredients are excellent and the fish and chips are made with care. Here are sevenchain restaurants where the fish and chips are outstanding, according to diners.
