    Sit in, the Townhouse. Mc Donaghs and the pizza place opp Kebab house on Mary St are good too.

    Don't like greasy chips unless it is 3 in the morning and at that time I'd eat anything but love China Garden chips. It's the Chinese in Wellpark.

    McDonaghs imo. Loads of salt and vinegar.

    Vinnies are fairly decent.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,173 ✭✭✭Wompa1


    Vinnies and Bethlehem... maybe Bethlehem more so because they are so different

    That Harry Fitz place on shop st. that opened recently does some pretty good chips.
    That's of you like real fresh cut chips though. Not the frozen shoite they seem to peddle everywhere these days.

    +1 for Harry Fitz.
    Had rotten ones in Pizza Shack last week, tasted like the oil had cooked about a million pieces of fish prior to my chips.

    Tried Harry Fitz' chips last night for the first time. Probably the best bag I've had in a while. Homemade, but cut thicker than McDonagh's/Vinnie's.

    I have a voucher for Harry Fitz - can't wait to give it a shot

    +1 Harry Fitz!

    Kettle of Fish across from Buscar Browns is my fav. The guy who owns the place is sound out also


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,224 ✭✭✭barone

    Are you that guy??? If not then try finding the Kettle thread on here and see what most people think of it, its a disaster, bad food a lot of the time, woefully poor service from all bar one current staff member and a rotten attitude from the owner/ manager/ frier. And to make it worse it actually used to be good.

    Wow, I did not know all that. Well, i always thought their chips were really good, I used to live over Buscar browns and always got them, though that was around 3 years ago.

    The Welsh owner fella always seemed sound to me, last staff girl I recall was a Polish girl who I found lovely.

    I'll have to go in again and see what you mean, clearly if there is a whole thread open about it there must be something to it.

    Someone posted about the China Garden, which i live beside now, don't remember thinking they were anything special but their 4-in-1s are tasty and giving me a bad stomach:D

    Jaysus, their fish is mighty though. Much nicer than McDonagh's.

    Don't like Harry Fitz at all tbh, they were too oiley and too hard and didn't soak up vinegar at all.

    Kettle of fish are nice but the portion is tiny for the price.

    So, i'd have to say McDonaghs, other places are Nicos and that chipper near Ulster bank in Lisbaun

    I'm going to get hammered for this but:
    a) Mustard's skinny fries
    b) MacDonald's

    I like fries, not chips.

    Mustard do skinny fries? I'll have to try them, I love skinny fries.

    My favourite chips vary, depending on what I'm having with them. If they're being loaded with salt and vinegar it's McDonaghs, if I want plain chips I'll go to Charcoal and if I want chips with sauce or cheese I'll get Kebab House or maybe Vinnies. Burger King and McDonalds are my favourite hangover chips.
