Aussies and Kiwis have got fish and chips/fush and chups absolutely nailed.
Best I ever had was Paihia in the bay of islands.
My big issue with takeaway f and c is that as soon as you wrap it in paper, you ruin some of the crispness of the batter/spuds. For me, it needs to be served on a plate. Big cup of tea. Mushy peas. White bread and butter. If you’re in the U.K., nowhere does it better than Yorkshire.

Over here it's served in an open paper tray then that's slipped into a paper bag, crisp batter and chips intact! Fish and chips is really good here...

I was absolutely baffled when I moved to the uk from nz and found the majority of the f&c shops pre-cook and the chips just sit getting soggy in a warmer. Enjoyed the cod though.
Melbourne, while generally being a superior aussie town, has absolutely crap f&cs. Just terrible fish down there. -

This.
London is so shit for fish and chips, usually the best part of 15 quid for fish, chips, mushy peas and crushing disappointment (no scraps either)
I've given up even bothering there's so many better options here. I am more than happy to be proved wrong though so if anyone knows of anywhere decent near the E7/E11 border I'll give it a go (then write a terrible review here when I'm disappointed once more)

I had fish & chips for tea on Friday night, a calamari pack, six large breaded squid rings (Tho' I think it's actually cuttlefish) from Seafood Town in Woody Point, QLD... Best chippy on the peninsh, always a queue out the door...
A lot of fish and chip shops here have fresh fish for sale as well...
