The Prom Chippy

Overlooking the water near Portstewart's harbour, The Prom Chippy is a classic seaside fish-and-chip takeaway that has become a fixture of the town's bustling seafront. Fish is cooked fresh to order in a crisp batter and paired with generous, hand-cut chips, and the short, focused menu sticks to what a good chippy does best — a proper Haddock Supper, battered sausages, fishcakes and all the trimmings. Because everything is fried on demand, there can be a short wait at peak times, but regulars reckon the freshness is well worth it.

It is a friendly, keenly run spot that draws both locals and visitors strolling the prom, holding a 3.9/5 rating from close to 300 reviews. Diners single out the juicy fish and the hearty portions, while the breezy coastal setting makes it an easy choice after a walk along the strand. For a no-nonsense seaside supper with the sea close by, it is a dependable Portstewart pick.
