But which one is your favourite? We put an appeal out on Facebook for our readers to pick what they think is the best fish and chip shop in the area, and you didn’t disappoint.
We had well over 200 responses with a spread of votes over a number of shops. To narrow it down, we selected the fish and chip shops that had been named by more than one person.
Despite a lot of shops being mentioned, there was one clear winner.
To check out the honourable mentions, check out the comments on our Facebook post.
Here are the 17 best fish and chip shops in the area as voted for by you:
