    The Sea

    Try traditional fish and chips

    The Sea
    • Essen

    The Sea is among the best places to get fish and chips in Blackpool. And yes, that's the name of a restaurant – we're not recommending you try catching your own fish right out of the Irish Sea. The Sea was the first fish and chips shop in town to receive an award from the National Federation of Fish Friers. Feel free to put their reputation to the test, as you'll find delicious offerings inside that are all locally sourced. 

    The fish are all caught in the seas of the North Atlantic and cooked fresh to order. In terms of the potatoes, the restaurant gets shipments daily to maximise freshness. While that's enough for quality fish and chips, their secret lies in the special batter they use, but they're not too keen on telling what the secret ingredient is.

    Lage: 77 Church Street, Blackpool FY1 1HJ, UK

    Öffnungszeiten: Sunday–Friday from 11 am to 8 pm, Saturday from 11 am to 9 pm, Sunday from 11 am to 8.30 pm
