    Burdocks is pretty amazing in Dublin.

    Around the corner from me is Dino's which have amazing chips, though I'm not sure what the fish is like.

    Cork fish & chips are cack - they're made by Cork people for Christ's sake. Dublin is where it's at.

    Actually, Dublin is a bit provincial. Prague is much better. A real city. And I'm from Dublin.

    Beshoffs has too many bones in its fish and is smaller than the portions you get at the local Italian chipper or Burdocks. Plus Burdocks has crispy bits

    Luigi's in Monasterevin.

    The Fountain in Kilcullen.

    Loughan's Prison canteen. The chips are crispy on the outside but soft as mash in the middle and they served with your choice of garlic butter or pepper sauce. The fish is taken straight out of the atlantic and cooked the day it was caught- in your choice of beer batter or ciabatta crumb.

    Come with side salad and a medley of seasonal veg.

    Beshoffs can be nice but is ridiculously expensive. The local Italian chipper is usually the best.

    Leo Burdock's near Christchurch in D2.

    They are to Fish'n'Chips as DaVinci is to doodling.

    I watched Heston Bleumenthol's how to make the perfect chips, so I gave it ago, dug out the deep fat frier and filled it with LARD blanched them allowed them to cool turned the temp up and in they went.

    They were fecking gorgeous nicest chips i ever had, BUT the gaff stank of lard for days (probably psychological) I never tried that again.

    Another would be Skibberine (Spelling) the fish is so fresh you have to stick your fork in it to stop it jumping off your plate. Its a fishing harbour I suppose.

    I live on it when I am down there.

    Similar posts will get this thread closed and poster smacked with a fish.

    Well, you certainly can't beat someone from far away. That's racism.

    Burdocks fish and chips are as good as they say they are, then you take your fish and chips and eat them on the grounds of Christ church cathedral on a summers day,,Heaven.

    I've heard a lot of good talk about Leo Burdocks in Dublin. Although I believe there are a few Burdocks, but there's one in partuclar that has a big reputation. Even celebrities have been to it.

    Leo Burdocks in Phibsboroughis absolute crap, The worst chipper ever!

    Mc Donaghs in Galway is one of my Favorites.

    Luigis in Longford, has the BEST chips ever! If you're traveling the N4, it's well worth going into the town to get some chips there!

    Toni's Bistro in Donegal Town is very good too for fish and chips...
