East Boldon, British, Traditional Restaurant Guide

Not all chippies can boast 100 years of operation (the business started as a hut on the foreshore in 1905) – this traditional operation is one of the few that can, but has moved with the times and only uses wild fish from sustainable fishing grounds, fried in additive-free vegetable oil. Nowadays its ‘Temple’ spin-off generates more interest in our poll, but the original remains highly rated for what it does.
