Looking at the reviews of Lichfield Chippy, I was quite excited to see what they had to offer - unfortunately neither me nor my partner can say it lived up to the nearly-5-star rating...
We both had a regular fish & chips with a large pot of curry sauce.
The chips were slightly undercooked, not inedible, but more white in colour than they should be.
The curry sauce had chicken chunks in, which is good... Except there was probably more chicken/other bits in it than actual curry sauce... It was so lumpy with so little sauce that we weren't "pouring" it on, we were rather scraping it on in clumps instead which was a shame because it actually tasted decent.
Finally, the fish... I'm not sure if they were slightly overcooked or not but my batter was dark brown rather than golden brown. And being by the coast I would expect "melt-in-your-mouth" freshness from the fish, instead there was a very slight rubberness to it which let it down.
Overall, it was ok... But unfortunately it was nothing special on this occasion, maybe it was a one-off, but I'm not tempted to try again to find out.
