FOOD+DRINK FOR THE LOVE OF COD! CONT.

Aqua 43 43 Albion Street, Broadstairs CT10 1NE www.aqua43.co.uk Aqua 43 has been family run since 1972, so you would expect that the owners know quite a bit about how to make perfect fish and chips – and they do. Everything is cooked to order and the ingredients are as fresh as possible. There are even homemade pies on the menu and – surprisingly – roast dinners! Papa’s Fish and Chips 142 Canterbury Road, Folkestone CT19 5PH www.papasfolkestone.co.uk Reliance Fish Restaurant 4 Queen Street, Gravesend DA12 2EE www.reliancefishrestaurant.com Established in 1966, Papa’s Fish and Chips has been a staple in Folkestone for locals and visitors alike. It was all started by two sons of a Cypriot priest who had been farming potatoes and realised they could make a living by combining them with the fish that their father caught. The idea was a successful one and is still going strong today. After almost 100 years (Reliance’s centenary will be celebrated in 2020) the fish and chips served in this quaint, traditional restaurant and takeaway in Gravesend is still as good as it ever was with people travelling from across the county and beyond to buy the chips that remind them of their childhood. Peter’s Fish Factory 12 The Parade, Margate CT9 1EZ Peter’s Fish Factory is always a popular choice and why not indeed? With excellent quality food made quickly while you wait and the choice to either eat in or take your box of goodies out to the seafront, there isn’t much more you could ask for when it comes to good old fish and chips! Ossie’s Best Fish and Chips 205 Tankerton Road, Tankerton CT5 2AT Although there is quite often a queue to get to the counter at Ossie’s, the staff there know exactly how to cope with the crowds, so you won’t have to wait too long to get your hands on a big bag of freshly fried chips and some perfectly battered fish. 99
