But Belfast is home to the number-one rated Fish & Chip Restaurant of the Year.
Fish City stole the title, just a stone's throw away from the capital's historic waterfront.
On the menu, customers can choose from local and sustainably sourced fish, crab, squid, mussels, prawns and chicken.
Coming up behind Fish City, was the Malt and Anchor in Cirencester, Gloucestershire.
They boast "Cirencester's finest fish & chips, to eat in or take away" and are situated in the heart of the idyllic Cotswolds.
Their award-winning pies and butcher sausages also give their fish and chips a run for their money, with "something for everyone" no customer will leave empty handed.
