Leo Burdock Christchurch

They asked if I wanted vinegar, I muttered an unsure yes, and boom, it turned out to be one of the best fish and chips I’ve ever had. The only downside: they’re take-out only, so we had to find a spot to eat. It turned into a bit of an adventure, crouched on a street bench, praying no birds would strike, struggling with greasy fingers and even greasier food. The serving was huge. The fish sat on a mountain of chips (way too many chips, honestly), with barely enough tartar sauce to go around. Easily enough for two, maybe even three or four low-appetite Asians, haha. I was genuinely surprised I liked it as much as I did. I'm not usually a fan of fish and chips. I only came because it’s said to be Dublin’s first chipper. But the fish was fresh, and that splash of vinegar really brought it all together. Twas an unexpected happy meal.

This takeout only joint hits the spot if you are looking for local fish & chips. The fish is delightfully crispy. The fries are average but the fish, delicious. Cute t-shirts too. A must try in Dublin.

Yes, you need to eat here at least once, even if you're not a fish & chips person. Some of the best you'll ever get. No, you will need to take away from this location and find somewhere to eat...I would recommend eating it promptly since, depending on what you put on it, it may cool/go soggy faster than you think. Staff is friendly and they keep the line moving, which is good since this is a small shop. Worth it to stop in a grab a meal for sure!

We really enjoyed our food i can honestly say it was one of if not the best fish and chips we have had. The added crispy bits is amazing. The beef dripping really brings out the flavour, and the cod was thick and meaty. Very polite and friendly staff and was pleasantly surprised by the price. Definitely a thumbs up from us, well worth a try

Did order without fries but he gave me some anyway to try. As someone who generally doesn’t like fries I won’t comment on those but the fish was delicious and crispy. I also added some mushy peas and while they were a bit to runny for my liking they still tasted delicious!

NOTE - take away food. Simply amazing fish’n chips! Take one to share just in case cause they do not skimp on size😝. Take a seat on a bench within the church grounds and enjoy🤙🏻

Overly greasy, soggy crust, bad chips. All around bad experience at Leo Burdock’s. We felt rushed immediately though there wasn’t much of a line and the food was over priced for the quality they serve. There are much better spots in Dublin and Ireland for fish and chips.

I went here on a recommendation that is place was one of the best fish and chips spots in Dublin. I’m not sure if it’s my palate but it was criminally under seasoned. The fish was fresh for sure, but the breading was just flour, egg, and water. Not a hint of salt. The vinegar added flavor and the breading was perfectly fried, but ZERO seasoning. Maybe that’s how it is supposed to be? The set up is nice and simple. Small shop, straightforward menu, pretty fast service. Friendly staff around lunch time.
