When you've found a place that makes better Fish and Chips than you've had in the UK, you know you've done good.
Everything here is made from the scratch, right down to the tartar sauce. I hate when you go to other places and they give you those horrible plastic packets of "tartar" sauce straight from the factory. Port Union Fish and Chips makes their own, with tiny little pieces of hand cut gherkin speckled throughout.
I always get their Halibut and Chips dinner. It really is perfect. The batter to fish ratio is spot on. Super thin and crispy, the batter is a mere shell for the beautifully tender fish underneath.
The chips are as they should be, thick cut and cooked in shortening. Douse them in a little Malt Vinegar and Salt and you are good to go.
The kicker here is their coleslaw. The dressing is creamy, and has this wicked mellow lemony flavour to it. Definitely unique, and unlike any coleslaw I've had before.
My family has been coming here for years, and the food is always consistent. Totally worth the drive if you are coming in from the west end!
