- Fairly or not, the United Kingdom has a mixed reputation for its food. But one British street food staple that is beloved the world over is fish and chips. You basically can't go wrong with a big basket of fried fish, fried potatoes, perhaps some mushy peas, a glug of malt vinegar, and a malty pint.
And though the most authentic fish and chips definitely come from vendors in the U.K., quite a few American eateries have done a very good job of recreating this pub favorite. Who does it best stateside? These are the absolute best fish and chips in the U.S.

Who do you feel makes the best fish and chips?
Arthur Treacher. Yes, there are still restaurants in Ohio. Fight me.
Crispy and not soggy
Captain D's. Fish is golden delicious and flaky, fries are really good, and their hushpuppies are always golden brown, not almost burnt like Long John's.
Years ago KFC stores in Michigan had H. Salt’s Fish and Chips attached to them, much like with Taco Bell now. The slabs of cod were HUGE and exactly like I used to get in England. Still salivate when thinking about it.
@@paulwagner688 I was just about to ask if anyone else remembered them. I haven't had it in decades. It was so good.
I miss Arthur Treacher's Fish and Chips. They had the most delicious Hush Puppies ever.
Enjoyed them in the late 60s to mid 70s. Was delicious and learned to love the malt vinegar.
I grew up on HSalt fish and chips, it was do good. wrapped in newspaper and everything back in the 70's. I miss them so much.
h salt was good but didn't last very long, i think it was less than 8 years before all of the locations outside of california closed.
@@marzsit9833 My first job was a block from an H Salt, fondly remembered. It was absorbed into KFC briefly, the way some Taco Bells are now in KFCs.
Edinburgh Fish and Chips in San Francisco serves a wonderful fish and chips. The original owner sold the recipe to the new owner the recipe. I used to love stopping in for fish and chips there as they had the original fryers straight from the UK.
Best fish and chips I’ve hade were in Canada and in Cleveland. Gotta love the Great Lakes 🇨🇦🇺🇸
Whitefish rules. (Madeline Island, and Bayfield, northern Wisconsin).
@@billh230perch is good as well but they’re rare around my area now I love walleye man it’s so fresh and clean with lemon
Highly disappointed that you didn't have H. Salt on this list. They were a well-known fish & chips spot here in Los Angeles. I remember back in the day when they had locations all over South Central LA and Inglewood; unfortunately, it's down to one spot on the westside, headed towards Santa Monica. Still, they've had some of the best fish & chips I've ever tasted 😋
Lived in England 4 years back in the 80s. I have had F&C at many restaurants in America. Only one place came close., The George and Dragon in Orlando. Run by Brits, you can get the mushy peas and beans.
Here in he Midwest we can get really good fish and chips from Culver’s. The pieces of cod are thick and perfectly cooked and remind me of the F&C I used to get in Yorkshire. If only we could get a malt vinegar as strong as in England. A little went a long way.
The malt vinegar is the best part especially with a dash of salt on beer breaded batter with your fries dripped with the same damn thing 😩😍
I love malt vinegar on everything from a fish and chips place. The fish, the fries, and then I'll bite a little piece of a hush puppy off and pour some malt vinegar in that and the hush puppy soaks it all up and it becomes crispy on the outside, and a nice malty vinegary juicy on the inside.
@Kimberly Woodbury Thanks for the tip! Great idea.
Nice to see Fish N Fizz on this list. They do a very nice Bangers and Mash as well as a Bread & Butter Bread Pudding. And they serve a great local English style Beer from Four Bullets Brewery.
Don't forget the British Grocery store right next door as well
Bowpicker in Astoria, Oregon is actually the best! I lived in Portland for 8 yrs and tried them all
I agree, Arthur Treachers, I also miss , I loved there fish, the batter is the best.
Harbor Fish and Chips, Oceanside, CA. Large portions, 3 size pieces to choose from. They still have good for a small mom and pop.
The best place I had Fish and Chips was Ivar's. and their Clam Chowder was really good.
ivar's and spud are both really good fish and chips but they are different from english fish and chips because they are both breaded, not battered. to date i have never found a place in the northwest that served good battered fish and chips...
Kings Head pub in Winnipeg Mb. Canada. Excellent
Hello i am from Singapore i am coming 40 this month. Honestly i tried British fish and chips Irish fish and chips and Scottish fish and chips. To be very honest i notice there is a difference in all fish and chips i tried. And the way the fish and chips is being cooked and presented to me is also different. So honestly i cannot say which 1 is the best. All 3 fish and chips taste really good.
Fred shanty's in new London, CT is the best ....I've Ben there since a child. I'm in va now but I've nva has anything bad on their menu. Frm new England clam chowder to french fries to ice cream all is great check it out
I agree it was the best I ever had
Cook's Seafood in Menlo Park, CA is the best I've ever had, and I've had Fish & Chips all over the world...UK included.
We used to go to Marin Brewing Company for their fish & chips. Alas, they closed at the end of January, a casualty of the pandemic. 😭
I’m surprised that you missed Shakespeare Pub & Grille in San Diego, California. They also have a British gift shop beside the restaurant.
They have one in Vegas and it's pretty good.
Ivers in Seattle I really miss since moving away.Also spuds Alki point my brother also likes and nice water views.
This fish is so delicious!!!!
You missed Go Fish and Go Brit in Rehoboth Beach, De. Amazing!!
I was thinking the same thing. Good 👍 grub..
The Wellwood in Charlestown, Md. is pretty good too. They a have a Yuengling beer batter that's quite tasty.
Properly done fish and chips are amazing so good .tarta sauce and slaw is my kinda thing being aussie 🇦🇺😉 you got to try baramundi fish .you wont regreat it .
Growing up in Ohio, we had Captain Ds, Long John Silver, and Arthur Treacher's. Of course I have had better f&c since. I'll admit that I really miss "hush puppies".
Hi Mashed, you guys made an error. You brought up the Codmother but the video was of a codmother in London , the San Francisco, Codmother looks like a trailer with some outdoor seating but I agree the food is awesome!
Scottish fish and chips in Gurock, Scotland is my first and final place for the best. At 2 shillings 6 pence at the time in the 60s ( right at $ 0,25), I partook of many an evening meal on the run to my to be wife's apartment. H. Salt came the closest in the US to being the real thing, but was lacking. There is something to the taste of print in the local newspaper😁. Haven't found anything close since. Miss sausage rolls and meat pies too. An experience everyone should have!
Spent time in Liverpool. Byrnes Fish and Chips. My favorite chippy. Always super fresh.
Just come to Wisconsin on a Friday!
There's a place here in Lemon Grove (San Diego) that serves pretty good fish and chips. It's called, simply enough Fish and Chips. Run by a Korean family, they're a little on the slow side (each order made fresh) and they are little expensive, but OMG it's delicious. You can get several different sides like mushrooms, zucchini and green beans, all tempura battered, and they offer several different types of seafood such as crab, lobster and squid. All housed in an ex-Arby's just a block east of the Arco on Broadway and Kempf (Skyline), south side of the street. 🐟 😋
Can't seem to find it googling it. Can you give me a link or address?
Its "Chef John's Fish and Chips."
@@jameschiyinwan Thanks!
@@jameschiyinwan Thanks, James. Lazy thinking on my part. Now that you mention it, I remember the Chef John's, in far smaller print above the Fish and Chips. 😆
Ivar's is a popular choice in Seattle - the quality of their fish is excellent but they use a light corn meal breading that doesn't get crispy. I much prefer beer battered fish. And only lemon juice - keep the tartar sauce.
I like H & Salt fish and chips in the past, but unable to find one locally
You must go to a Canadian town like Hailburton Ontario. Coming into town the restaurant is on the left, I forgot the name
A Salt and Battery is so clever
Burgers Under the Bridge has very good Fish and Chips... It is located under the London Bridge... (in Arizona by the way)... 😎
THE DANDELION in Philadelphia PA….top3 ( was on the show. The best thing I ever ate. Where all the chefs talk about their favorite dishes)
I live in Minnesota and I don't eat fish or seafood from restaurants because I don't trust it, being that we're smack dab in the middle of the country rather than being near an ocean. I'm afraid everything is old and rotten but somehow gussied up so we can't see how old or bad it actually is (like what has been done with beef). I've seen those videos of what it looks like when someone from a restaurant or a grocery chain is buying tons of fish. That fish was sitting around in bins for well over a week while these buyers walked around choosing from up to weeklong crates of fish in a warehouse - per the narrator of the video
Didn’t see Mushy Peas, Onion gravy or Curry sauce
suggest you actually watch it again, several places mushy peas was mentioned and curry sauce was mentioned once
@@bikes02 I saw the few that where mentioned and with beans
What happened to Long John Silver's??? They were good!
I make the best fish and chips.
I use halibut and I deep fry it in peanut oil.
How about THE FISH JOINT in Coconut Creek FL. GREAT FOOD
As a Latino😭 cook, I did not knew fish & chips were that special hard to make
Not hard, but like the taste of San Antonio Tex Mex, hard to duplicate. Every area has it's own go to food tastes. Chicago for pizza and dogs, New York for white pizza and dogs again, Benson, Arizona, actually a cafe there for some of the best steak I've ever eaten. Connecticut for their Subs or Hoagies, Florida for raw oysters and crab, Baltimore for crab cake ( Old Bay Restaurant), etc. Places that do it right and the same way since forever. Use of anything but Haddock or Cod for fish and chips, blasphemy! Whoever came up with tilapia, should be made to eat tamales from New Mexico for 30 years as punishment! 😁😁😁😁
Not hard .no .its all about your batter and a oil that's best fort deep frying .
Set your self up with rhe proper utensils ,no plastic tongs .everything stainless steel.
Prep your food ready to go ..its all in rhe work flow. Youll be right 🇦🇺👍😆
My vote goes for Culver’s North Atlantic Cod! 😎
Hooters has pretty good fish and chips. I was shocked.
You left out Cracker Barrel. They have great fish & chips, but only on Fridays. It’s real cod, cooked perfectly every time and generous portions for the $$$
CB is garbage are you kidding me? Perhaps I know what real F&C is having lived south of London a while.
Nothing in LA? Crazy list.
My mashed potatoes gave so much butter they'll never dry out. You can never have too much butter, there is no such thing. In a microwave oven don't heat them at full power. They go with my pot roast so there is plenty of not too thick gravy to make them nice and moist.
Absolutely correct!!! We love and use tons of the highest quality butter. Anything less than 84% fat is useless
Fiddler's Hearth in South Bend!!!
SEATTLE: Yall actually didn't visit these places... I don't doubt Pacific Inn Pub is at least good - but many of those places don't last. Heck - I was a fry cook at "Skippers Fish and Chowder House" in Ballard in the 80's. Almost as good as Ivar's but cheaper and "All you can eat." They didn't last; technically there's one or two stores left. Ivar Haglund is "Ivar's" founder, a well known and respected man in Seattle. Albeit he's passed sometime ago. He founded Ivar's in 1938 and its still going strong! I suspect that 'people in seattle' which seem to be transplants now-a-days and probably from the east coast and don't quite care for "Our PNW Fish & Chips" which means: "Ivar's" With Ivar's there's the "Basic Fish & Chips" from any of his restaurants and then there's Ivar's Salmon House sitting upon Lake Union. A bit upscale but well worth it. But then again - there are the great "Clam Strips" at Ivar's (Manila Clams). Not heavily battered deep fried clam strips! Ya gotta try them! I've transplanted myself down in LA. Went to Boston, Jersey, West Virginia and a quite few other places to 'investigate 'east coast' fish & chips' - ALL of them didn't "Puff" - and that was a key at Skippers. See? I actually cut and battered the fish at Skippers every morning I worked. At Ivar's - Alaskan True COD unless you get the Alaskan Salmon or the Alaskan Halibut!!! See - when you cook the fish - if the coating/batter starts to puff - you know for sure that the batter made a perfect seal and the fish inside is getting steamed perfectly. I haven't seen fish puffed up like that in 40 years. It was a thing in Seattle - to go to the waterfront and grab some clam and chips or fish and chips and just 'mosey about.' As Ivar used to advertise: "Keep Clam!"
Mashed, hello,gee I have NOT HAD FISH & CHIPS IN DECADES, there was ARTHUF TREACHERS FISH & Chips, but when he died there were a few left, but I have not seen ANY FISH & Chips places any more,I live in NJ,🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
"I've found a way to elevate that classic dish."
He could have just said "I've figured out how to use substandard ingredients and then sell it in a country that wouldn't know genuinely good fish and chips if it fell over them, for an exorbitant amount of money.
For Bellingham Washington, my guess would be Anthony's.
👈👈Around the river I cooked delicious fish over the coals
I enjoy the video content, but I have to mute and use captions. The narrator is monotone, over-enunciates, and sounds automated.
Scalawags in Mackinaw City, MI belongs on this list. Best I have ever had.
Ed's Fish and Pizza, Nashville TN
Codmother’s in San Francisco
Narrators voice??
Cricketers in Dunedin Florida
The essence of chips and fish is that for a little money, you can eat alot,,, but I do not think so at Gordon Ramsy's........... all these place mentioned......
I live in California. I've never heard of any of these restaurants.
Where in Kentucky, Ohio or West Virginia?
Worst place we ever had fish and chips was next to our Myrtle Beach ocean front resort. All we got were two cigar shaped frozen fish sticks and bad fries. Sent them back and scolded the management for being 100 feet from the ocean and serving terrible fish.
Sounds like the Cracker Barrels equivalent. Their fish was like rubber and the breading was terrible.
Ye Olde King's Head British Pub. Santa Monica, California.
Damn didn't hear about the Codmother- when I went San Francisco got frozen gross fish and nasty chips
Maybe that contributes to people pooping in streets there.
Pete's Fish & Chip shop in Cape Coral Fl..............
You mean that there are none in Los Angeles? Dang yaw!
The word “notoriety" means well known for being bad. Think about "notorious".
Yes, that was an ill-informed word choice.
Skipper's was great for all you can eat smoking hot cod.
Tartar sauce less popilar in the U.K? It's staple in every British Chippy.😏😕🙄
Why not feature something from the west side of Columbus, Ohio?????
Like where?
Scotty's Fish and Chips Detroit MI
I see a lot of coleslaw served alongside it in this video, is that more to Americans' taste, I wonder?
You claim Ramsay is a born and bred Brit. He was born in Scotland and moved to England when he was 9 years old. He refers to himself as a Scot. While technically, Scots are British, most Scots preferred to be identified as Scottish.
Where is the cod father?!
He "sleeps with the fishes".
Fish and chips is not complete without mushy peas. None of these have any mushy peas.
suggest you actually watch it again, several places mushy peas was mentioned!
Order 69,your order is ready my G.
😎✌
None your picks are in NM!

Did you really call a business with 2 locations a "Chain Restuarant"?! That's barely old handcuffs, that only had rings for the wrists!
Captain D’s!!!!!! Bwahaha
Captain D’s is underrated.
The WORST fish & chips is Captain D’s 🤢 It’s horrible 🤮
wow, i thought this channel cant get any lower but they just did. Who in their right mind actually goes to the UK for fish and chips? yes, they're famous for loving their fish and chips, but that's their version which is super oily and soggy and just downright disgusting for anyone outside of the UK
Next thing we all will hear "as American as fish n chips"! That crazy expression "as American as apple pie"! ... we have been eating apple pie in England for centuries! US population needs to take pride in their indigenous cuisine and hospitality!
@@robertlower6212 perfectly said 😂 I recently replied to a comme t on another channel that said all British food was bland and disgusting and how as a nation the Brits denied it being awful. Bit of perspective needed me thinks 🤔
@@robertlower6212 As American as baseball and hot dogs. "Hot dogs, get your hot dogs". With mustard.
When I was in England we approached a couple Chippies, but were put off by the rancid pong.
alabamas cincinnati ohio
Boomers also has fish and chips here.
🍖🍖🍖🍖🍖🍖🍖🍖🍖🍖🍖
Since LJS closed permanently here (the owner won't pay more than minimum wage so nobody will work there anymore) there isn't a single place that serves fish that is any different than the fish sticks you got in school 🤮
I'm surprised Gordon Ramsay is allowed back in the UK after trying to pass off those lame skinny American fries as "chips!" None of these places serve proper chips!
oh wow you so so wrong saying Ramsey a born and bread Britt..his not a Britt his Scottish i don't think he even grew up in the UK eather... by the way i grew up in Ga USA AND we had long Jhone slivers and cap dee's and there fish and chips where the bomb... i think you need to do you research better then you have.. cause if you did you would know the UK not the only place on this earth that does fish and chips.. and you would have better info on Ramsey witch you don't.
Oh wow, how ignorant are you! Or just a troll? Being born anywhere on the mainland of Britain means you are British! He was born in Scotland then moved to England growing up as a child. So think it's you that needs to do some research next time!
Scottish are british. You should do better research.
So wanted to watch, but that narrators voice 🤕
Peas instead of coleslaw??? wow how strange!
mushy peas are the standard in england. no coleslaw or tartar sauce either..
Yes. Fish without coleslaw is a disgrace and must be castigated.

AHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA the person can not say fish n chips and pauses every time and does it like 50 times AHAHAHAHHAHAHA
he's actually Scottish NOT BRITISH
being scottish is being british duh
The Scots are British. Look up what Great Britain is.
He's Scottish not British lol
Scotland is a part of Great Britain.
@@g.e.889 Scotland is part of the United Kingdom. Which also includes part of Ireland, Wales, and England aka great Britain.
@@ogsmoke4x725 which means they are also British.

Fish and chips are Portuguese, clown. No wonder you needed bailing out in the war.
You've heard wrong.
Blah, blah , blah... big fat commercial, nothing more. Here's an idea : tell us about the fish and how it's prepared and served. Waste of my time.
You sound fun.
