I was told that Ocean's Fish Bar in Oxton village was really good so we went there last week and although their cod was amazing with really crispy batter, I didn't rate the chips very highly.

I can't put my finger on what is different with chippy chips nowadays, but they're just not what they used to be frown

We often go to the Village Fryer in Upton, has won loads of awards, and yes it is good but not the best.

Giorgios in Claughton Village is not bad at all, they do small fish too which is often nice, and also lately have started to do interesting fish choices.

Not in the Wirral but the best F & C ever is in Freshfields by the the station, they do fried Mackerel and they are amazing!! We need somewhere on the Wirral the same.

Best I've ever had was that insanely good one in Conway.

If there's one in Wirral even half that good I'd love to know.

Big Cod in Liscard was excellent ...but looks like it's gone under, hasn't been open for a while.

one chippy I can't understand why it does so good is the Two Dragons in Mill Lane, their Chinese meals may be very good but their chips are permanently "warm ups" absolutely awful, dead dry and orange.

Havn't had fish & chips in a long time but in work last week decided to pick a random chippy to get it. Chose the yellow chippy next door (left) to "Greedys" in Wallasy Village. Had fish chips with curry on top and it was amazing.

Parkgate is the most overrated chippy ever! The fat is always dirty and the chips are greasy, dont know why everyone raves over the place. We went their especially and were left very disappointed, thinking we had the wrong place.

Irby Fish bar is amazing, as is Georgios on Borough road or claughton.
