BlackPuddingBertha Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Apologies for digging up an old thread, but Goose's fish and chippery appears to be closed ??? It is closed. Some say it's temporary. Personally I've never been as it always seemed to be absurdly expensive. I'm not paying more for F&C here than I would pay in the UK.

Ulysses G. Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 It is/was also really GOOD and much cheaper than flying to the UK for fish and chips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rott Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 This thread is 5 years old. Would have been better starting a new one. I don't see why this should be the case. It is a good few months since I've been, but the fish and chips at "Yours" pub on Soi Khaotalo (near the new condo) was always spot on, and at 130 baht a good buy.

Say it isn't so! its not so jolly friar is still as good as ever i went last friday http://www.jollyfriarpattaya.com/ I was just bumping the thread and posted because I already had a skinful of beer and fancied some fish and chips to go. The only one that seemed to be still open (it was after 11PM) was the Jolly Friar and I was impressed by the speed the order was filled which was only marginally longer than it took me to eat it when I got home (20 minute drive). Tasty but not awesomely so and the chunky chips had the sweetness from local potatoes that I don't care for.7 out of 10 + fast service and reasonable price, fish was flaky and tasty - chewy batter (not crisp) and 'sweet' chips Oh yes, the ketchup they serve with takeaways is pretty vile but nice little bags of salt and vinegar.

KittenKong Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Golden Friar, Jomtien- F & C @ 100 baht. I'll second that. It's good value and good quality (though of course at that price it is local fish). Another place that does good (local) F&C is Cafe Patini on Friday on Soi Buakow. 149B with peas (not mushy). Both are much better value than the Jolly Friar as far as I'm concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KittenKong Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Last ally on the right heading towards beach rarely have cod it seems then it was also the jolly friar before then? It was. At that time I think that the Jolly Friars at Jomtien and Soi Lengkee were both owned by the same person. Then one of them got sold (not sure which) and the name of the Jomtien one was changed slightly. Since then the price in Soi Lengkee for standard F&Cs has gone up more than once but at Jomtien it is still 100B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boldface Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Didn't rate the Golden Friar at all when i went there last week. Half cooked fish and about 6 chips which were frozen Makro ones. Lakeside chippy is the best as far as I am concerned. The chips are great now as opposed to the crap they were serving a couple of years ago. Top notch.

KittenKong Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 (edited) actually they are 99 baht at JF Thought I saw 140B on their sign the other day? Up from 120B previously. Edited September 16, 2013 by KittenKong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittenKong Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Didn't rate the Golden Friar at all when i went there last week. Half cooked fish and about 6 chips which were frozen Makro ones. Portion control is certainly evident at the Golden Friar, though at that price it isn't surprising. The chips (assuming you have real chips and not "fries" which are also available there) certainly don't appear to be from Makro, and I have never had badly-cooked fish there. I think it is decent light meal worth the 100B. For a bigger meal and 50% higher cost Cafe Patini is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittenKong Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 After much intensive research (I just walked past on my way to breakfast), and for the benefit of anyone who still cares, I can announce the following: Jolly Friar in Soi Lengkee has a sign up outside with a photo of battered fish, chips, tartar sauce and one slice each of lemon and lime. This appears to be the same photo that they previously used to advertise their fish and chips for 99B and subsequently 129B. The price now says "from 149B".

OMGImInPattaya Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 (edited) How does Jolly Frier compare to the Pig and Whistle on soi 7 and the place adjacent to P & W? I haven't been in awhile but recall the Pig served a nice big piece of nicely battered fish and chips...of course, not budget priced.

I haven't been in awhile but recall the Pig served a nice big piece of nicely battered fish and chips...of course, not budget priced. Jolly Friars compares well with the P&W's, and I eat in both. I like that you get a choice in the JF of battered or breadcrumbed fish, and a choice of Chips or French Fries. Plus add ons like Mushy peas, Curry Sauce etc etc. Biggest problem with the JF and been like this since day one, they chill the plates and warm the beer !
