Except it doesn't cover your hole. It merely brings further attention to your racist drivel.

If you feel the need to defend something as "not racist", it most likely is racist to everyone except people with racist views.

Racist drivel????

This is starting to look like the "Rough Pubs Thread" with all the hard chaws calling each others pints a langer.

Could never get the love for KCs. Dinos in Bishopstown or Blackpool were better.

Lennox is still not bad but nothing like it was in early 2000s

The Golden Fry was always a very solid choice.

I don't think anyone could accuse me of being a "hard chaw".

I think the thing about KC's is it's not a "chipper" chipper. Like if you're going there and expecting normal chipper food with the best chips, you'll probably be disappointed, because the chips are nothing special.

I do like what they do, however, different to the standard stuff everywhere else and reasonably priced.

You need v good chips minium at any chipper, if they can't get the basics right it's a bad start, tbf Dinos chips are nice, kC a average at best, Chis n fibs crosshaven nice

Disappointed to hear that. I used to go regularly and 95% of the time it was top notch. Don't live locally anymore, so have not been for over a year.

Herb Powell · 14-01-2021 4:03pm

I disagree tbh, the chips aren't the focus in KC's, they're usually in a pita with other stuff. I'm just saying I don't think it belongs in the same category as the others.

There's hype and anti-hype/hate for KC's think both are fairly cringe tbh. For what it is I really enjoy it, and even when the queue is long they whip through it fairly rapid.

Always enjoy it, but yeah, the way some of my Douglas friends go on about it is borderline cultish.

golden fry is very good- potato pies are superb

kcs not worth the hassle

hillbillys brest in a bun but only after a few pints

Any views on the best chipper available on Just Eat?

What hassle would that be in regard to KC's?

It's in Douglas. A town riddled with traffic. A no-go zone.

Are you guessing this is what the other poster meant?

Chips and curry in Lennox's can't be beat. Nicest curry sauce by a country mile.

I used to love Hot Stuff's curry sauce.
Anyone remember them?
Not a traditional chipper but very successful for a time. Many outlets in Cork.

Had a dinner box before a city away match 3!4 years back it was muck altogether, fried chicken was incenirated - really really dry and hard, last time in there
Lennoxs on Carrigaline on the other hand the one dinner box we sgstria few weeks ago was as good if not better than kfc chicken

I'd try it again sometime as Lennoxs used be Kings of the chipper scene in Cork and ppl keep raving about it

That's why folk like it. Incomparable to the awful, watery stuff most places lash out.

rob316 · 15-01-2021 11:47am

I remember years ago the Golden Fry used to do roast chicken and gravy on chips. Do they still do that?

It's the bits of corn and everything else in it that make it. Like poster above said, many places it's just like brown water. Their chicken fillet burgers & drum sticks are very tasty too but it's their chips n curry sauce that stand out.

Christ, I'd love that and some gravy fries now. And I'm not even pissed.

They had a load of outlets.
Anglesey Street, Washington Street (2 I think) , South Main Street (I think), St Patrick's Street Oliver Plunkett Street and probably more.

I don't remember them being particularly cheap - probably slightly more expensive than the traditional chippers.

After laughing at the name since it opened, I finally tried Pizza Daddy last week.

I was very impressed! Got a doner kebab, which had a huuuuuge pile of meat, and the chips were fantastic. Probably among the best chips I've had in Cork.
