Kevin M was right! These are the best chips in North Belfast! Last night after a long day being…read morehealthy we decided to ruin it all by getting a big chippy. We decided we didn't want to pig out completely so we opted to get 2 battered sausages (these always come with a few chips - inside tip right there) and a fish supper. This was easily enough for both of us to have a massive meal. The chips are what makes this chippy a cut above the rest, they are thick and potatoey (that's a word I just invented) and when soaked in salt and vinegar they are highly addictive. The fresh fish used is perfect. I have to say I was shocked about how good this place was. The service was excellent too. We placed our order and within about 10 minutes we had it and we were on our merry way. The meal was still pipping hot when we returned, a sure sign it was cooked fresh. On of the easiest 5 stars I have ever given.

The restaurant was very busy when we arrived, but the staff was incredibly attentive and made sure we were well taken care of throughout our meal. We ordered the seafood chowder, seafood linguine, and the Thai coconut and ginger seafood broth. Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and packed with seafood. The chowder was rich and comforting, the linguine was perfectly cooked, and the Thai broth had a wonderful balance of creamy coconut, ginger, and spice. If you're visiting Belfast and love seafood, Fish City is well worth the visit. We'd happily eat here again!

But they do the most amazing curry sauce, and poured over a pastie supper - yummy. The service is excellent, the staff behind the counter are very quick off the mark, and treat the place like a military operation - bam bam bam, order after order, quick and organised. There is lots of choice on the menu, and you can sit in or take your food home. They do outside catering also - and I always think it's hilarious that they claim to do 'Funeral Buffets'. Would love to see that, although something tells me there is a certain local clientele that would probably think it's a great idea to have the local chippy provide food for thier nearest and dearest!

The usual stuff fish, burgers, chicken and chips are all amazing and this is supported by the hundreds of customers that visit the chippy on market day as it is always packed! so a tip here is to stay away on these days unless you fancy waiting in line for quite some time. It's also busy at lunch times with all the nearby office buildings. One thing I always seem to go for is the taco chip. I have posted a pic of this to chippys page. very nice but very hot!

I could smell the greasy air coming out from it. I accompanied him but did not indulge rather I sampled a few chips, half a piece of one of three pieces of battered 'fish' and a curry sauce. It is likely that at some time in my life I have had fish and chips as truly awful as this muck was, but thankfully I can't recall. Avoid this place like the plague. I couldn't distinguish what the grey 'fish' actually was and the batter was greasy awful and congealed thick. The chips can't be Maris Piper even cooking them badly couldn't make them this tasteless and as for the curry sauce pot - even mc Donald's sickly sweet 'curry' is haute cuisine in comparison.

The space is small but doesn't feel cramped, even though it was full of people, seated at the little wooden church pew booths and wooden tables that give the place a distinctive character of its own.
