Drakes In Plaice Fish & Chips

Drakes In Plaice is a traditional British chippy in central Bradford, serving up the classic fish supper to a steady stream of city-centre regulars. The counter does exactly what you would hope: freshly fried Haddock and Chips in a light, crisp batter, plus the usual run of sausages, pies, fishcakes and mushy peas. It is a proper old-fashioned takeaway, geared towards quick service and hearty, filling portions rather than anything fancy.

Opinion on the place is genuinely mixed, and it holds a 3.4 out of 5 rating from more than 200 reviews: fans praise the perfectly cooked fish and crisp batter, while others note that service and consistency can vary from visit to visit. Prices are kept down-to-earth, and the central location makes it a convenient grab on the move. If you fancy a no-frills British chippy feed in the middle of town and don't mind a lively, busy counter, it is worth a try.
