Riverside Fish Bar

Walk down South Parade towards the river and you'll find yourself at a chippy that takes its job seriously. The batter's got that golden crunch that doesn't happen by accident, and they're not stingy with the fish either. You'll notice the queues building up around teatime—not because it's trendy, but because word travels when somewhere does the basics brilliantly. It's the sort of spot where regulars know what they're ordering before they reach the counter, and newcomers quickly understand why their mates won't shut up about it.
