About Restaurant

The CHIPSHOP was founded in 2001 by Chris and Vicki Sell to provide an authentic British fish & chip shop experience. As an ex-pat and career chef, Chris was eager to dispel negative perceptions of English comfort food and “have a laugh doing it.” He sought to create a truly authentic British pub/restaurant rather than another theme joint serving chicken wings and burgers. So the CHIPSHOPstaff are chuffed to regularly hear “better than I could get back home.” While fish & chips is what the CHIPSHOP is renowned for, an extensive menu of British comfort food dishes made in-house is what brings regulars back time and again. The British beers are a strong draw too.   Oh, and let’s not forget about the tremendous press that the CHIPSHOP has received for deep-frying Twinkies and our willingness to fry anything that doesn’t hurt our chefs, wreck the fryer or irritate the health department.  That would be “the laugh” part that draws a tourist following.  Despite this fryer cheekiness, never doubt that the CHIPSHOP takes pride in serving quality comfort food made fresh at our two Brooklyn locations:
