Please note: These lists include only 5-star-rated chippies. That doesn’t mean others aren’t excellent — a 4-star rating signals an outstanding place, well worth going out of your way for, while 3 stars still reflects a solid, enjoyable experience.

 

I’ve had the pleasure of reviewing many brilliant traditional fish and chip shops across the UK. Every 5-star chippy receives a special award pack from me, including stickers, a window decal, and a personal letter of congratulations.

 

At the end of each year, I revisit all 5-star reviews to choose the top three. These exceptional chippies receive the prestigious Gold, Silver, or Bronze Award.

 

Every 5-star chippy has already earned its place among the best. These final awards simply honour those who’ve gone that extra mile.

 

Best of luck to all — and long may we celebrate the finest chippies the UK has to offer!
