There are plenty of takeaways in North Wales located in picturesque surroundings - be it by the seaside, amongst the mountains or, as was the case with my most recent chippy visit, next to the UK's smallest cathedral. St Asaph, being the smallest city in North Wales, is served by only one fish and chip shop (other types of takeaway food is available though).

But a simple browse of Tripadvisor will tell you what a top chippy it is. The Chippery, located at the top of the High Street, is directly opposite the stunning cathedral and is a place I have ventured to many times in the past.

One reviewer even called it "by far the best chippy I have been to in my forty years of visiting North Wales". On my latest trip to "The Big City" I arrived at around 12pm and was able to beat the lunchtime rush - pupils from Ysgol Glan Clwyd usually arrive in numbers from 12.30pm onwards.

As is always the case at The Chippery, I received a warm welcome and after a brief look at the huge menu on the wall I decided to keep it simple in true Tommy's Takeaways style - sausage, chips and curry sauce. After chewing the fat with staff for a few minutes I made my way back to the car - breaking into a jog in order to avoid the autumn downpour.

For £4.70 I was quite happy with my portion size, there are cheaper options available in the Vale of Clwyd but quality-wise there aren't too many better in my humble opinion. This visit was no different.
