Up there with a roast dinner, fish and chips is a British institution and it’s fair to say, us Brits can be almost tribal about which is the best place to get them from.

Tripadvisor rating: 4.5/5
Where: 26 The Drove, Brighton
What the punters say: "Tammies is without a doubt one of the best fish and chip shops anywhere.
"Their £5 special, available all the time. Small cod and chips. Small it is not. I have had large in other places nowhere near as big or as good quality."
Saltdean Fish Bar
Tripadvisor rating: 4.5/5
Where: 83 Lustrells Vale, Brighton
What the punters say: "This is simply the best Fish & Chip I’ve ever had in the past 15 years since I came to UK.
"I’ve tried nearly all the legendary Fish & Chip shops in London and other nearby cities, none of them surprised me like this local one.
"The fish was just cooked at the perfect level that the coating covered it was crispy enough to sparkle in my mouth and the fish was so juicy and fresh to present the sweetness from its natural flavour."
Fillets
Tripadvisor rating: 4.5/5
Where: 45 Lewes Road, Brighton
What the punters say: "I was working in the area and decided to try this local chip shop, I was not disappointed.
"I live in central London and frequent many a food outlets as my work takes me all over, this chippy is the best I have tasted anywhere.
"I would not hesitate to recommend the cod and chips, the batter is light hardly any oily taste and on the four times we had fish and chips, could not say that any other fish and chip shop could beat this shop.
"It's a must try."
