Details
Freshly fried fish with a delightfully thin, crisp, almost orange-coloured batter awaits you at the Oxford Fish Shop on Iffley Road. This traditional chippy is a long-standing local favourite, known for its generous portions of cod and good, thick-cut chips, often fried to order. The owner, who has been frying here for over two decades, offers a friendly welcome, contributing to the "hole-in-the-wall" charm that has pleasantly surprised many who thought Oxford lacked a truly great fish and chip shop. You can expect the usual chip shop fare, including options for vegetarians, ensuring there's something for everyone.
Conveniently located at 287A Iffley Road, this takeaway is known for its superb cod and chips and engaging service, creating an atmosphere where customers chat like they're in their own kitchen. While they don't take cards, there's a handy Co-op next door with a cash point if you need it. After enjoying your steaming hot meal, perhaps on a nearby bench, you could take a leisurely stroll to the Iffley Lock and along the Thames Path, or even explore the Oxford University Botanic Garden.

Top tip: google "portraits from a fish shop", and there's an article about the owner. He's also a photographer, and a good one!
