The first time, it was about 9:40PM and they were getting ready for closing up. I popped in as I walked past just to see what they had left, so I grabbed the last sausage and a portion of chips.
To prevent food from going to waste, the guy working gave me two sausages, so many chips, and he charged us the same amount.
The second time, I went in at dinner time. I asked for battered sausage and a large portion of chips. The chips had been sat under the heat lamps for a while, and the guy working offered to put a new batch on for me. I told him not to worry and that I don't mind that the chips have been sat there for a while. He sorted my order out: sausage in a bag, chips in the paper. He put so many chips in there, looked at me and asked if that was enough, to which I told him it would do me for a week. Then, because I didn't make him put a brand new batch on as he was about to go on break, he gave me an extra sausage.
I love this place. The food is excellent, and the staff are among the nicest, friendliest people I've encountered. Will be coming in at least weekly.
I'll definitely be back from London once uni starts again.
Fish and chips are yummy!
Staff is friendly and you don't have to wait much for your order.
Highly recommended
But like pearls in oysters, a good chippy does appear once in a while — one where the fish is always fresh, the batter crunchy and the chips fluffy.
Ossies provides high quality and reliable freshness of fish. But while it’s the fat, flaky fillets of moist cod encased in crunchy and chewy batter that earn Ossie the best in Canterbury. From its beach shack interior to the chirpy, chatty service it has the whole deal. You also need to try their range of pickles — choose from eggs, shallots or red onion rings.
