>>305066The video is called “
I Tried 2 of Plymouth’s BEST Chippies… There Was a Clear Winner!” and it comes from the channel
Rich Rates Food (some Brit*sh guy with around 12 thousand subscribers who rates street food and takeaways like a real-life MasterChef judge, but hungrier and more honest).
The guy heads to
Plymouth, England (that port city in Devon that smells like the sea and deep fried grease) to do a straight up head to head battle between two of the “
best” "'"fish and chip shops''' (chippies) in the area according to ratings and local reputation. This isn’t some lazy review: it’s a fair fight, same order, same test, and at the end there’s a clear winner.
First stop:
Cornwall Street Fish BarHe pays
£15.95 for
cod and chips + curry sauce + a Coke Zero.
•The fish was fresh and tasty (he gives it 8/10).
•The chips were fucking solid, crispy on the outside and soft inside (9/10).
•But the batter was thick and doughy in places, like the fryer guy got a little too enthusiastic (only 6.5/10).
•Value: 8/10.
Total:
31.5/40. Decent, but it doesn’t leave you with a raging hard-on.
Second stop:
Harbourside Fish & Chips (the one right by the waterfront with a view of the sea).
He pays a bit more:
£17.55.
And this is where the guy’s dick stood at full attention.
•Thick, white, flaky fish that was goddamn delicious (9.5/10).
•Batter that was perfect, crispy, light, and melted in his mouth (a full 10/10, you bastards!).
•Chips also high-level (9/10).
•Value: 9.5/10 because even though it cost a little more, it was worth every fucking penny.
Total:
38/40.
He scores everything live on camera, shows close-ups of the fish flaking open, steam rising, curry sauce dripping… pure content that makes you hungry as hell and want to fly to England just to eat fried fish. At the end he declares Harbourside Fish & Chips the clear winner. He says the extra money was completely worth it and that the batter from that place is on another level.
Rich Rates Food is in the middle of his “Plymouth City Takeover,” a series where he’s eating everything that moves in that city.
This video is part of that run. Both chippies are among the highest-rated on TripAdvisor and in local reviews: Cornwall Street has a reputation for being classic and consistent, while Harbourside stands out for the quality of the fresh fish (it’s right next to the port) and its legendary batter. In 2026 they are still two of the most mentioned places when people ask for the best fish and chips in Plymouth.
The tone of the video is relaxed, honest, with light British humor and no over the top drama. It’s not one of those exaggerated reviews where the guy screams “OH MY GOD THIS IS THE BEST THING I’VE EVER EATEN!” like someone just shoved a dildo up his ass. It’s more like “this is good, this is fucking great, and this one wins because the batter is a goddamn work of art.”
