Great British Chippy, Currambine

My favourite is Grand Lane Fish House
Re The Great British Chippy. Sorry. Went recently. $52 for three totally uneatable fish and chips. Service too was atrocious. Have been there previously and ok. Spoke to several Brit expats who won’t go there any more. Not sure when you last went. Just thought I’d let you know.
