Best Fish and Chip shop in Crewe & Nantwich - Round 1 results

Here are the results from Round 1 in this year's Best Fish & Chip shop in Crewe & Nantwich. Heat 1 saw last year's winner Benny's Fish and Chips go through to the semi finals, but they faced competition from Shavington Fish Bar who were leading in the heat until the last week of voting. Coronation St Chippy also progress from Heat 1.

Last year's third place, Walthall St Chippy qualified for the semi finals only by 1 vote with Vernon's Fish Bar the unlucky shop missing out. Jacko's chippy and Neptune's qualified as the top 2 from Heat 2.

Mick the chips won heat 3 ahead of two of last year's finalists The Fish Bar & Cod n all. A huge influx of votes came in on the final week of voting for |Mick the chips and they could be a contender for this year's competition.

Heat 4 saw our only contender from Nantwich progress to the semi finals, Coral Reef (Pillory St). Also qualifying is Alton St Chippy and Haslington Fish & Chips.

Review of Goodwin's Fish & Chips, on Nantwich Road, Crewe

Goodwin's Fish & Chips

Reviewed by: Local Listings on July 2013
. Great food, but overall poor experience

Welcome
I was met with an empty shop when entering Goodwins in early July of this year. It was then around a 5 minute wait until someone realised there was a customer in the shop. An underwhelming welcome did little to make up for the wait.

Price
A large fish, chips, peas and gravy costs £8.50, so slighty more expensive than the average cost.

Quality
The fish are all cooked to order and there's no doubt that the fish they serve up is one of the best in Crewe. The fish tasted great, but they chips were no better than ok.

ExitI paid with a £20 note and received £1.50 change! I queried this and she did realise her mistake and I do believe this was a genuine mistake on her part, but this simply added to the poor experience.

Rating: 3.0
