“I always give LJ 5 out of 5; food is always hot, fresh, delicious – delivery always on time OR EARLY,” one top review gushed about this place, also dubbing their food “perfect.” The fish and chips here are beer-battered, meaning you get a touch of bitterness from the beer to balance out the sweet, flaky fish inside. Again, no traditional mushy peas here, but you will get tartar and lemon to round out the flavor.
