    Johnnie Walkers's chips are excellent but the fish leaves a lot to be desired. At my last visit to Cunninghams I bought nice big fluffy white cod. I have never got anything like it in Walkers. In contrast Walkers cod (?), covered with an equal amount of batter, is thin and off white. At 4 euro I am afraid it has gone off my menu. God be with the fish in Patrick St.

    Johnnie Walkers has Scallops though :)

    I think the overall quality of Cunninghams has gone down drastically over the past few years as they started employing non-family into the business.

    So Johnnie Walkers wins for me :)

    What do you mean by non-family, are the 2 brothers not working there as much? They've had "non-family" workers there for as long as I can remember, maybe the staff turnover is a bit higher now than it used to be though..

    & the Scallop Buttie is one mean feast with a chip I tell thee! Wrap your jaws round one today & then get back to me! ;)

    Cunninghams has gone down the tubes IMO compared to what they were years ago. The Beach grill do a far superior product. :D

    Places which don't have scallops tend to start off on the wrong foot with me :)

    Big fresh flakey fluffy cod to be found in Ballybricken. Not as good as Cunninghams but much better then Johnny Walkers.
