Fishnchips Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 I'm doing some research for an article on fish and chips/football and trying to find the best fish and chips shops near football grounds. Where's the best fish and chips near Pittodrie? Is there somewhere that everybody goes? Any really top notch chippy's at some of the other grounds in Scotland that everybody goes to? Cheers!

Dynamo Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Controversial there calling it a chippy. 2 Link to comment
King Street Loon Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Low's will eventually be the best Chipper near a football ground. Otherwise I liked the one on Urquhart Road when I lived round the corner from it. Link to comment

"Atlantic Fast Food" (a chippy) is quite near Cliftonhill, the home of Albion Rovers in Coatbridge (The Athens of North Lanarkshire). it won best UK chippy in 2010. https://food.list.co.uk/article/23304-coatbridge-fish-and-chip-shop-voted-best-in-uk/ Link to comment
Clydeside_Sheep Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 There's a Chinese one in King St which is the worst I've ever tasted . Agreed, a chinese run chippy (in Reading) is also the worst I have tasted. They should stick to fried rice, they know nothing about fish and chips! Link to comment
BWG Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 There's a Chinese one in King St which is the worst I've ever tasted .There was an asian run one in cove as well and it was also shite. Link to comment
donsdaft Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 The best 2 chippers in Aberdeen are run by Chinese The Bluebird on Urquhart Road and the Torry Chipper on Vicky Road Link to comment
Pudgie Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Fucking chippy? It's a chipper! This is chippy! Anyway. Canna mine the last time I had a decent chipper... 1 Link to comment
RUL Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 The best 2 chippers in Aberdeen are run by ChineseThe Bluebird on Urquhart Road and the Torry Chipper on Vicky Road Didn't rate the bluebird much when I stayed there. Not much near football but st andrews has a chipper called the tail end which is top notch. Can't think of any other. Link to comment
ebbe Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 The Asian run one in Woodend is also fucking terrible. Urquhart road is still nae bad. Link to comment
donsdaft Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Been a great fan of the Bluebird over the years ( and it's the closest to Pittodrie) but the fish has not been great recently so when I feel the need for a fish supper it's Torry for me. Link to comment
RAZOR Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 A fucking chippy? Nae a big chipper lover but Mikes is nae bad. I seen a picture of a deep fried Tunnock Tea Cake the other day. What a time to be alive. Link to comment
Bluto10 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 I'd say the magpie in whitby.But that's nae in Aberdeen. Used to grab two or three of them a week back in the Edinburgh days after hoursCity restaurant I think it was called. Link to comment
Foster14 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Used to regularly go to Mikes right beside Pittodrie when I worked at the driving range and I thought it was pretty decent. Alas, it is no longer there. Bluedbird was decent enough my days living on Nelson Street. Balmedie Chipper probably beats any I have eaten from in Aberdeen though. Nae particularly close to Pittodrie... Link to comment
OddJob Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Never tried it myself but my mate says the Newmachar chipper is brilliant. Link to comment
manboobs109 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Dora's in Dundee is walking distance from both grounds and is really good. Link to comment
ericblack4boss Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Good ones out of town, Oldmeldrum.Mikes, inverurie.Huntly, chipped. the fact it doesn't have fucking toonsers darkening its doors is a bonus 1 Link to comment
Saturday's Kid Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Agreed, a chinese run chippy (in Reading) is also the worst I have tasted. They should stick to fried rice, they know nothing about fish and chips! The Chinese chipper in Scone is good. Link to comment

cruzcampo3 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 There was an asian run one in cove as well and it was also shite.Wasn't even open half the time and was indeed fucking terrible. As others said Torry chipper is one the better ones Link to comment

Chewie37 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Anyone calling it a "chippy" can get forced to stand in front of EB4Bs house with a "I love deeside" sandwich board, like John McLean in Die Hard 3 Buffoons 5 Link to comment

Tell us again about that time you drank a half bottle of whisky in a chip shop. 1 Link to comment
BWG Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 The best chipper around Aberdeen is Hornblowers in Gourdon and I'll fight any man that disagrees. Rumour had it they were going to move to the beach in Aberdeen which would be perfect post Pittodrie feasting. Link to comment
minijc Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Oh boy what a fucking thread!!! The rex at Motherwell is the best in Scotland, folllowed closely by the green chipper across from Middletons at Easter Road, there's a decent one at Killie aswell which is backed up by an ace ice cream/sweetie shop, at Hearts there's one on Gorgie road just as you turn the corner away from the ground which is ok but nothing special.

Poodler Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I remember a good one next to Hampden, can't remember its name though. The chipper in Brae, Shetland is the best I've ever had, its ruined chippers on the mainland for me now. Link to comment
