Fish & Chips Place On Sukhumvit Soi 23

[Spaniel]

There is a Fish & Chips place on the left side of Soi 23 (coming from Sukhumvit) about half way between Sukhumvit and Soi Cowboy. I think they have been there for quite some time so based on that I would assume the F&C's are pretty good but is their anyone who has eaten there recently that can confirm this?

The Off Shore, Many of the British lads swear its the best in Bangkok, I myself tried it last week and thought it was rubbish!!! to each their own but I guess it's worth a go if you are hankering for something that tastes like home!!.. I prefer Bradman's Bar opposite The Off Shore, nice menu and no grumpy old codgers lurking about....

Proper authentic stuff. I'd guess the owner is from Lancashire.

I did have one pretty shoddy pie & chips there once, but otherwise it's been good whenever I've been there.

While I am no expert, I have been in there a couple of times for a big feast and thought the food and the value to be really good, (especially the value)

[ScouseTommy]

Easily on a par with the British fish and chip place in soi Rambuttri by Kao san. Only ever had one bad meal here and that was around songkran, so i dont judge to harshly!

[whybother]

I've eaten from there once. It will be the only time

Chips with gravy and vinegar. Sensational

Chips with gravy and vinegar. Sensational

Thats as bad as ketchup on pizza

[HardenedSoul]

Save your cash and try the Ship Inn British pub 50m further up the soi. Lovely cod with crisp batter and fat, crispy chips. Comes with tartar sauce and ketchup and they'll do take away as well.

Totally unrelated. Ketchup on pizza is doubling up on tomato sauce. Vinegar adds tart to the gravy

I've eaten there many times after a night on the town at SC. I then decided to eat there one day while sober and I almost puked!

Totally agree. The only reason they stay in business is because most of their customers are pissed when they eat. Its nothing like a British chippie, food awful, service awful, decor awful.

was in there last Saturday could not believe how dirty & smelly (dirty water smell not oil) the place has become, looks like a definite case of lost interest to me as it never used to be like that. Pity really as it offers a good change to the regular food around 23

One thing that always got to me was the staff asking for a tip on takeaways !!!!!, but saying that ive seen tip box's on 7/11 Counters.. ?

Ive heard good things about the place in Convent road that does fish and chips, but the name escapes me at the moment.

I second this.

[yourauntbob]

I have had it many times, not the best i have ever had and not the worst. It is good value for the money.

Sounds exactly like a British chippie to me.

[Soi Sauce]

For the quality of the fish, not the chips though, you're better off at the Manhattan Fish Market at Terminal 21. There's another Fish restaurant in 21 too, which has excellent fish'n'chips at a little more expensive then Offshore.

Best in Bkk by a long shot though is Sam's place, just off of Soi Convent near Silom. Google it, Well wotrth checking out.

Strange thats just how i remember it 10 years ago-the last time I went in. Real shame there seems nowhere you can get really good chips, unless anyone knows better.

[teatree]

The food was pretty good when I used to go there but I stopped going due to the overall lack of hygiene.

Its a shame. Would still go there if it was clean.

I second this, and add that you get good portions. The cottage pies are good.

[brotherother]

Fish (cod), average. Chips, poor.

Taste-wise I would NOT be happy being served these fish n chips in the UK.

The best in Bangkok? Certainly not, but I agree prices are low.

I go there often though - drunk and sober - for their bacon sandwiches and reasonably priced pints of Westerns(?) cider.

[radster2212]

I'd go there just for the cider then lol.

[bridge2bridge]

Yes the fish inn, not as good as it was.

The last time i was there the fish was soggy.

A good indication that the oil was not hot enough when it was cooked.

I tried o my cod, but it was the same.

Also on soi 23 is the Queen Vic( opposite side of off shore),

The fish was better, but still not perfect.

Bradmans, across the road, has much better fish and chips. I bit more expensive though.

[edgarfriendly]

Their chips are awful, their pastry for their frozen pies is AWFUL!

Staff are typical tourist area attitudes, borderline beggars/scroungers.

Whoever owns the place could probably quadruple profits if the food & staff were improved.

The food should be easy enough, the staff i'm not so sure.

That's if he wasn't poisoned the day after he finished paying for it all ...

I often wonder if the owners of these establishments either read or take in what is being said about their places and whether thy care or amend their practices

I think you know the answer to that one WB.

[dantilley]

Had some chips from there last night: not too bad this time actually, the previous time they were awful.
