10 August 2011Who has the best fish & chips in Ottawa?A couple weeks ago Dwayne Brown posted this delicious photo on his blog:[ ![](/legacy/00929.jpg) ](http://ottawastart.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/DBS_fishfriday.jpg) Fish Friday at the Cat. Photo by [ Dwayne Brown ](http://blog.dwaynebrown.com/2011/07/fish-friday-at-cat.html) , used by permission.It's a photo of the fish and chips at the [ Cheshire Cat Pub ](http://www.cheshirecatpub.com/) in Carp, and ever since I saw that photo I've been craving a big plate of battered haddock and crispy fries. I asked our readers on Twitter for their picks for the best fish and chips places in Ottawa, and here are their recommendations, in no particular order: * [ Lapointe's in Bells Corners ](http://www.lapointefish.ca/en/locations/all/bells-corners) * [ Le Resto ](http://chelseasmokehouse.com/le_resto) in Chelsea * [ The Chippy ](http://ottawafoodies.com/vendor/1961) in the Rideau Centre food court * [ O'Grady's Outpost ](http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=24277701669) (Tapiola Crescent near Johnston/Albion in the South End). "East Coast Wednesday" is delicious and you can get a cheap Moosehead too. * [ The Glen Scottish Pub ](http://www.theglen.ca/) in Stittsville. * [ Merivale Seafood Grill ](http://www.merivalefish.com/) , on Merivale close to the old CJOH building. * [ The Whalesbone Oyster House ](http://www.thewhalesbone.com/) , downtown at 430 Bank Street. * [ The Georgetown Pub ](http://www.georgetownpub.ca/) , on Bank Street in Old Ottawa South. A good place to watch a soccer game too. * [ The Pelican Grill ](http://www.pelicanfisheryandgrill.com/) on Bank Street (south of Kilborn) * The Kanata Legion (70 Hines Road, near March Road), serving fish and chips for lunch on Fridays.
