The Nest Fisheries

There's something deeply satisfying about a proper fish and chip supper, and The Nest Fisheries in Durham has been doing the honours for locals who know exactly where to find a decent feed. This place doesn't mess about—it's a straight-talking chippy that also turns its hand to pizza and kebabs, giving you plenty of reasons to skip the kitchen. The kind of spot where the fryer's always hot and the portions are generous enough to make you glad you walked.

The fish comes wrapped in that golden, crispy batter that shatters at the touch of a fork, revealing flaky, steaming white fish beneath. Chips are proper chunky things, soft inside and crisp outside—exactly as they should be. If you're after something different, the pizza options are surprisingly good, and the kebabs offer a reliable alternative when you're not in the mood for seafood. Order online for delivery or collection, and get your fish and chip fix sorted without a second thought.
