Following a recommendation from a long-standing customer and friend, I have become a “regular” at The Fryery on Guildford Road over the last year – visiting this chippy every couple of weeks and what a find it is!
Clean, smart and presentable, with a friendly welcome and very efficient service, this is a fabulous traditional English chip shop in the Birkdale area of Southport.
The blue and white nautical theme inside really puts you in the mood for fish and chips!
The Fryery has a good menu, often including daily specials – I particularly like the home-made chicken curry and the freshly-fried chicken breasts.
The chips are hot, crispy and delicious.
And try the two different home-made curry sauces – they are fantastic.
Prices are extremely competitive.
It’s a busy venue and opens from lunchtime right through until close of business six days a week (closed Sunday).
You can even eat in, as there are a few tables and chairs in a side room, or you can perch, as I do, on a chair in the window and eat, whilst watching the world go by outside.
You get your order served to you on a large plate, with proper cutlery.
How civilised!
A nice touch is that daily newspapers are available to read whilst you wait for your order, or eat on-site.
Note: parking outside can be a little tricky as it’s on a busy road.
PRO TIP: if ordering their chicken curry, ask for it “half and half” – served with both chips & rice.
