Blackpool – A Fish & Chip Wonderland on Every Corner

#hellohalloween


Walking through Blackpool feels like strolling through a golden-fried dream. Fish and chip shops blossom here like mushrooms after rain—on street corners, near the piers, tucked beside arcades, and even across from tram stops. It’s not just abundance—it’s tradition, pride, and a shared love for crispy comfort.

Each shop I passed offered its own take on the classic: flaky cod, chunky haddock, golden chips, mushy peas, and tartar sauce. Prices ranged from £8.50 to £15.00, and the quality was consistently impressive. Whether it was a family-run stall with handwritten menus or a polished diner with seaside views, the aroma of vinegar and salt pulled me in.

I wandered from Central Pier to Talbot Road, comparing crispiness, portion size, and charm. Some served in paper wraps, others on ceramic plates—but all delivered that nostalgic crunch.

In the end, I chose a shop near the promenade with a queue of locals—a good sign. The fish was tender, the batter light, and the chips perfectly salted. A seaside classic, served with heart.Blackpool – A Fish & Chip Wonderland on Every Corner
