Salt and Vinegar is a great wee chippy in Shawlands in the Glamorous Southside of Glasgow…read more Shawlands has been lacking a decent chip shop (see my review of Blue Lagoon) pretty much forever so I really wanted to try this new place out as soon as I could. It's got quite a decent sized sit in restaurant including a mezzanine level which serves the same food you'll get taking away but presented nicer than I've ever seen in a traditional chippy. The take out is pretty speedy although expect to wait for fish. The chips themselves are really good and just how I like them. Well cooked, soft and not greasy at all. The fish was fresh, light and crispy and available in traditional batter and panko breadcrumbs but I went for batter. The battered sausage was one of the best I've had too, plenty of bite in it - some sausages can be a little limp... For a fish supper and sausage supper it only set me back £9.10 and that was a good meal for two people - they don't skimp on chips that's for sure! Looking forward to going back there soon and possibly trying out the restaurant.

In my previous review the chips I had bought didn't live up to my very high hopes. I'm now happy to say, after numerous visits, I have now had the chips of my dreams! I just loved Hooked and work tirelessly to spread the word around my friends and on Yelp! Everything I've had from here has been so great. The sweet potato chips are incredible. The mac and cheese balls are absolutely massive and so tasty!! The brie wedges are perfect! On my last visit I brought along some non-veggie friends and they loved everything they got - including the biggest serving of fish you've ever seen in your life!! I'm super happy I can update my review to a 5 star, Hooked really is the best chippy in Glasgow!

Just a bit of an update for this local takeaway as we indulged over the holidays (I mean, what are…read moreholidays for?!). I ordered the same thing as last time - special fish supper and potato fritters. Delivery was quick and the estimated time was pretty accurate again which is always appreciated when you're hungry! The food is pretty good but their potato fritters are cut too thick so they taste pretty stodgy, hence the loss of a star. It's not a deal breaker but I do really love fritters, so out of a batch of 6 only 2 were really decent. I'd still order from here in the future as the price is reasonable and I think the fish is really good, but I'm not sure I'd bother with the fritters.

I arrived at The Chippy Doon The Lane at the right time, around 5:45 p.m., on Tuesday 16 July 2019…read more The walk in to the entrance was through an alley between two buildings and had signage marking the restaurant was getting near, as I approached not another person did appear. The name of the restaurant was in sideways vertical lettering on the building face. Making my way in the entrance, a host greeted me and took me to an open table. The dinner rush at that time was small, and I looked over the menu. I went with fried haddock, hand-cut baked/fried chips, small white orbs of pickled onions, and tartar sauce. For my beverage I went with water with lemon in it. Prices were excellent (for example the pickled onions were less than one pound) and the servings were very large, I was happy I was hungry. The fish was perfectly flaky and fried to a golden perfection. The tartar sauce was thick and flavorful and the fries not too crispy nor soggy. They were especially good dipped in the tartar sauce. The restrooms were marked by gender - male and female. I felt more at home with those terms than I did the terms man and woman used back in the United States of America. Found it as a form of confidence builder as a female solo traveler that night. It was still light out when I left and I felt safe walking back out through the alley and to my hotel.

This is probably my favourite chippy I've so far visited in the Southside of Glasgow (nor anywhere…read morein the north/west/east). The chips are nice and fluffy, not greasy at all and the fish is really creamy with a lovely texture. The only thing stopping this getting a 5* is the price, a single fish supper is £6.50, which is more than I would consider good value.

Girlfriend swears by this place but having had 3 fish suppers I have to say it is not all that it…read moreis made out to be, the fish is not that tasty , the chips are dry and gave me the boak and as a connoisseur of fish and chips nothing can beat The Philadelphia in the West End or The Wee Hurrie in Troon or even the Viking in Largs. I can only go on the fish suppers as I have not tried anything else, maybe they just don't get fresh fish straight off the dock like the Hurrie or Viking do but the Haddock fish suppers here leave me cold. For those that remember the old fish and chippy in Giffnock "The Glen" it will always be sadly missed as it was the best fish and chippy in the southside but surprisingly shut down many years ago; the owner (a lovely lady too) actually now works in Asda at the Avenue on the tills. The service at the Catch also leaves a lot to be desired, they just seem to want to sell and take the cash with no real friendly customer service as such. The Glen always knew all of their regulars by name - hint, hint as that is part of what keeps customers coming back but it seems this is a forgotten skill as its all about the money and speed of service now it seems without any attention to making a good fry up either!

Catch is a really good chippy but the prices mean I really can't give it 5 stars. I mean, our dinner for two came to nearly £50. Ouch. We shared mac cheese balls and chicken pakora, both which were excellent. For main I went for the half lobster and it was really nice - delicious meat, a nice amount of garlic butter and the claw came cracked so I didn't have to worry about that. We got a side of potato fritters (which weirdly aren't on the menu, but they do have them) but they were underseasoned and bland until I loaded them up with salt and vinegar (the chips didn't have this problem). I'd definitely go back to Catch and would get a takeaway here, but I do think the prices are pretty steep for what is a casual fish shop dining experience. The prices are considerable cheaper if you're taking away (cod is £10.95 for eat in or £5.40 take away!) so we will do that next time. They also let us take our leftovers away with us so that was good. The staff are really friendly and nice.
