Not been to Chip InN for a long, long time. But since Moving to Wymondham. Big Fry, always perfect! We have never had a bad or greasy meal. Cod is big,crispy and tasty, and always great chips.

I'd love to do a taste test between the 2. Been so long, I can't remember the taste of Long Stratton's.

Big fry (although a chain type, so I was unsure myself) they really know how to cook fish and chips.We adore it, and try and save it as a treat every now and again.

When I come up to Norwich next year I intend to take a trip to Wymondham so I will give it a try
 
I agree FML and I think it would be good to do a taste test between the Chip Inn, Big Fry, Stafford Street and the (one that SOOOO many people rave about) the Grosvenor.

Changing topic slightly - Off out with a couple of mates (YES, I've got some!!!) to the Plasterers tomorrow evening to get 'plastered!!' <cheers>

I used to live at Spooner Row back in the early 80's and my regular was the Queens Head in Wymondham. Drove through Spooner Row the other day just to have a look, hard to find my old cottage, now surrounded by housing estates!
 
Introduced a couple of friends to the Plasterers Arms last night and they were very impressed with both the selection of beers and the pizza!! :emoticon-0167-beer:

How apt!! A beer & chips thread and news of a Norwich pub morphing into a burger restaurant (which sells chips, naturally). Good grief, when I lived near the old N&N hospital on Wessex St, the Lillie Langtry was my local for a decade or more.
On a Sunday lunchtime, they used to put bowls of hot Morston mussels on the bar, poached in cider - deee-lish <ok> <cheers>
Adios Lillie, welcome Craft Burger.

Looks good I'll have to give that a go next year.

In the big shopping complex in Bristol there is a restaurant called the Gourmet Burger, they do a fantastic beef and blue Stilton burger to die for with really tasty chips, I must go to Bristol very soon. Yummy
 
Oddly, I have a friend who used to live in Wymondham and he always used the Boars at Spooner Row as a local. Maybe a good chance to give his dog a decent walk, I don't know.
I remember the Boars head! A huge barn of a place that always did good food, but it was always cold inside I remember having to keep my coat on eating there in the winter!

I think in recent years, it's been tried as a pub on several occasions, but definitely not one I frequented on more than a handful of occasions.
