Default Fish and Chips

The Mrs. and I want to go for some nice unhealthy deepfried cod or halibut this evening along with some greasy fries. We are in the NW (Ranchlands) and I was wondering if anyone knows of any hidden gems in the area. I like Joeys Only but that is the only place I know of, other than the Bilingsgate in statium.

THANKS

Because you are supposed to put vinegar on them. I like KFC fries, although, that could be because I always have the KFC crack gravy with them.

There is a little place in the Brentwood Mall (Captains?) but I'm not sure how good it is. Close to the Pizza Hut.

Because those are the traditional "chips" that go with Fish & Chips. They are supposed to sop up malt vinegar.
