The words Beer Batter on any pub menu should set the alarm bells off.
Few years back, pre match Saturday lunchtime in an establishment that’s since closed and reopened I believe (ahem), the most ginormous ‘fish’ turned up on my plate, so big I was having trouble finding the chips. Despite chiselling my way through to the other side, I was unable to locate any actual fish. |  | | |

I had beer battered fish Jubilee Saturday in a Nicholson's round the back of Victoria (the station NC) and the girl I was with had I think scampi done the same.
As me late old nan used to say "it were 'andsome".
Then we got battered ourselves.
Mushy peas need be moist like a dank cleft on the Cornish coast otherwise they taste weird. |  |

Fairly agnostic on mushy peas, but minted mushy peas are flipping lush. |  |

I have made mushy peas, It is a time consuming procedure but well worth It.
If I was Prime Minister I'd make a law whereby mushy peas can only be served without any added flavouring and that includes bloody mint and even worse bloody cheese.
I'm disappointed in you Konk, I might even put you on 'ignore' for a couple of days.

If you were Prime Minister, I'd campaign for the return of Boris…no seriously, a nice bit of London Pride-battered haddock in a Fuller's pub. Washed down of course with a few pints of London Pride. |  | | |

It's kind of what you expect from a Fools fan though. Taking the working man's tasty treat and making it into some sort of posh culinary delight!  | | | |

Mate, if I’m served plain mushy peas, I’m very happy. But as with lots of things, Mint takes it up a notch.
As for claims that they’re in some way poncy, I was introduced to them about 25 years ago by a mate from Nottingham, who said they were a local delicacy and a big favourite at Nottingham’s Goose Fair. Ex-Miners eat the fuc kers, so you can all fu ck right off! | |

I've never had mushy peas, can't bring myself to eat them. So I don't hate mushy peas, just the idea of them. |  | | |

Mushy/processed peas are Satan's Bogies.
I quite like them. |  |

I'm against peas in any form - daft little green things, a curse upon them all, and indeed a pox on the house of anyone who champions them excessively.
This thread though has highlighted my need to pay more attention to batter - don't know that I can truly say what the difference is between beer batter and non-beer batter. The beer obviously.
Will look into this. Fish and chips is fcuking expensive these days, I know that. |  | | |

Anyone have a Superfish near them?
Still think they are superior to any other chippy. Fried in beef dripping and the flavour is 100 times better.
Had a sit down in my local one a few weeks back. Still amuses me when they wheel the trolly over with the pickles and condiments. Nice Ukrainian waitress too.
I taught my 7 year old how to peel the perfect prawn and not to be freaked out by the guts. [Post edited 27 Jul 2022 12:45]

I used to frequent a chip shop that did mushy pea fritters - a rare delectation. However the chip-shop proprietor was wary of making them as frozen mushy peas, he one day explained, are an unpredictable substance prone to becoming a volatile explosive mass if left in the deep-fat fryer for just a second too long. The old boy that ran the chippy had a grizzled countenance and normally showed little emotion but the tension on his face when deep-frying mushy peas was palpable. I loved them and I think he dreaded me coming in. But who knows maybe the adrenaline-rush of deep-fat frying mushy peas is what he lived for. |  | | |

I see there's one in Waterloo which I'll give a go.
The Fish House in Notting Hill is good but pricey. (I really must stop complaining about the prices.) | | | |

The effort of getting peas to stay on your fork vs the taste of them once they get to your mouth is maybe the worst gastronomic trade-off. | | | |

Petits pois/garden peas for me every time.
In my humble: mushy peas are the less anemic cousin of Mexican refried beans. Both appear as a lump plopped on the plate taking up valuable real estate that could be used for something else. They have no redeemable qualities, certainly not nutritional...fcuk 'em! |  |

The champion fish and chip shop is surely the multi-award winning Colman's in South Shields. Not exactly just around the corner, but a towering, monumental colossus of a fish and chip shop. | | | |
