Chip shops

Why is it that most operate restricted opening hours compared with other take aways which seem to be open night and day

I-spy would you work 12 hr shifts 7 days a week Some of these food establishments are family run or have a large staff to be open 24/7 Near me is a shop which is open at 6-00am till 2-00am so open 20 hrs but these is various staff running it during these hours

changing times i-spy, gone are the days when the Man brought home the bacon and the good wife cooked his dinner, Emily Pancake got things changed so now both ' partners' work and this allows a better quality of living and Mrs Duncooking phones deliveroo, This saves cooking and washing up.

Kitt green chippys open mornin noon and neet even on a Sunday! There's not many proper chippys that open Sundays,that place is too dear for me though!!

Indeed it is, Eggbeater. It's too expensive for one person, never mind a family.

"Regular" size cod, chips and peas = £13.45.
"Regular" plaice on its own = £8.75
Large plaice on its own = £9.95

Pemberton Fish Bar is cheaper, and it's really good.

Large cod, chips and peas = £7.40

Pity there’s no cod in our meandering river. But I’ve heard trout is there for the catching. Don’t forget your permit

Mollie m I go to that chippy in the side street in Newtown near rolling pin chips fish n peys £7.80

Mr English at Bryn Crosx opens all day every day and I have to say, Its a good un, you can also sit in and eat, The owner is Greek though, not that it makes any difference but makes you Wonder, If the owner was English would it open all day every day and sell kebab meyte as well ????

Eggbeater:

I know the one you mean, in Grosvenor Street, near Aldi. That is also a good one.

Tom:

The Pem Fish Bar is also Greek owned, and they've been there for many years now. Not sure what time it opens in the afternoon, but closes at 9 pm., closed on Sundays.

I think the chippy on Gerard Street in Ashton is Greek owned . A few years ago (THE signage has been changed now)the signage was in a wavy design and when you walked through the entry at the side of Tom &Gerrys at 1st glance it looked like Ashton Piss Bar instead of Ashton Fish Bar

I'm getting a bit of de ja vu as I'm sure we've talked about chippies before.

Anyway, my favourite, when I still worked full time, was Gidlow Lane Chippy. Not the one at the top, but Maureen’s further down. I’d nip down there for me din-dins from work, but I can no longer walk that far and back, and I don’t have a dinner break any longer as I start work at 1 p.m. so I’ve no idea of the prices these days, or opening hours. I think Maureen’s daughter continues to run it.

Ya know, av nor’ad any chips for a long while an’a could just ayte some. Think I’ll ger’a spud pilt and make some for me tay. Nowt like womsy made.

£14.50 for two decent sized fish and a large chips at the Vlora Fish Bar in Whelley and good value for money when you see the prices at some chippies!

Gone are the days when you could get a six of chips.
