    Ah, we'll just have to manage somehow ;)

    I know this will be sacrilegious but does any of the mentioned places have skinny fries with the fish?

    Noooo *the clue was in the word 'fries' vs chips :eek:

    Seriously though everyone to their own, but while some do love the skinny fries, never thought they go well with fish at all (except in an emergency road stop anywhere you get it in a basket, fish breaded, and you'd probably eat a shoe from hunger).

    Hooked has delicious (but fat) chips, almost like twice fried?

    Can you not just slice them in half?
    Fish will probably be gone cold by the time you're finished though.

    But I don't have the money to do so... Ah well!

    Most Cork people have a chip on their shoulder all right.

    Tried the Fisherman in Salthill for a simple fish and chips. Fish was very greasy and overcooked. Chips were ok. Mushy peas were regular small peas mashed up, very dry and looked pre-prepared. Wasn't a touch on Hooked.

    thumbs up for hooked, fish cooked to perfection and chips chunky and not soggy from grease. Best in Galway.

    From Hillbilly's?

    I was in there on Saturday and noticed the sign that seemed to say that. I asked them and they said no, the sign was about not bringing in outside food. Okay, says I and ordered.

    Card machine wouldn't work, so I left it.

    TL:DR, staff said takeaway is allowed, but I didn't actually leave with any food so I can't confirm.

    With a queue to eternity on the first Saturday of the Christmas market.

    Not a hope.

    Part of their planning permission was that takeaways weren't allowed anyway. Unless it changed.
