    That looked good. from someone that lives close to the famous Pilot at Dungeness. Went to the local chippy the other week (that used to be rated very highly but has changed hands)) for the first time in about 5 years got charged £28.00 for Haddock & chips twice and was so dissapointed. I've never has such a wet piece of fish in fact we (the SO) seriously doubted it was Haddock! But that looked proper.

Have seen Mother Hubbards several times on other vloger's channels. They have all been North of Watford, and I had no idea they were down South now.😊Worth a try when the weather is better. The price is brilliant 😊❤ An old-fashioned dish,served right❤Cheers 🥂 Allan&Family

    Thanks for sharing! I prefer my fish n’ chips deep fried in beef dripping and the fish to be coated in beer batter. The last time I went to a Mother Hubbards, my fish and chips (like yours) looked amazing. Unfortunately they were fried in vegetable oil and tasted ok ish. On the-other hand, Murgatroyds (Yeadon - Leeds) do AMAZING fish n’ chips! If you ever find yourself up in West Yorkshire I highly recommend that you give them a visit.

    One in Shrewsbury. Sometimes the batter looks as though it has exploded and has left some of the fish uncovered so you get some that's dry. Chips are good, nicely cooked.

    This is a real coincidence as we’ve recently had a Mother Hubbard’s open where I live. I was looking at their menu and interested to see they do grilled fish. I love fish in batter but do also love it just grilled, I can’t cook fish at home as it literally makes my husband go green, and none of our other chippies do grilled fish, so I’m definitely going to give it a go. The only problem with the menu on home delivery it doesn’t actually tell you what fish options there are, so no idea what I’d be getting ! It’s a varied menu with spicy fish options too. Great review, I’d love to know what their curry sauce is like
