The Cottage Fish and Chips – Blackpool’s Hidden Local Favourite
Tucked away just off the main tourist strips, The Cottage Fish and Chips is a proper local gem. Serving Blackpool since 1920, it’s one of the town’s longest-standing chippies — and still one of the best.
Expect fresh, perfectly cooked fish, hand-cut chips, and traditional sides done right. It’s a no-gimmicks spot that’s big on flavour and loyal regulars. Eat in the cosy restaurant or grab a takeaway on the go.
What to Expect:
- Freshly battered cod and haddock, fried to order
- Crispy chips made from local potatoes
- Classic sides: mushy peas, curry sauce, gravy, pickled eggs
- Reasonable prices and fast, friendly service
- Eat-in or takeaway options available
📍 Address: 31 Newhouse Rd, Blackpool FY4 4JH
🕒 Opening Hours: Typically open for lunch and early evening (check local listings or call ahead)
Why Locals Love It:
- Blackpool heritage with 100+ years of service
- Clean, traditional interior with table service
- Known for quality, consistency, and portion size
- Great alternative to the big-name seafront chippies
💬 Tip: Go for the small fish and chips – it’s more filling than you think. Add mushy peas for the full experience.
