The shop is one of two in the area owned by the same family, and they must be onto something as it was named one of the best in the UK by BBC Good Food Guide. 

3. The Little Fish & Chip Shop 

Where: 2 East Street, Southwold IP18 6EH

The Little Fish and Chip Shop in Southwold is one of the most popular fish and chip shops in the area, despite its small size. 

Inside there is just enough room for the counter and some stalls to sit on, but it has streamlined how it serves customers while still remaining friendly with high quality and local produce. 

4. Mrs T's Fish & Chips

Where: Southwold Harbour, Blackshore IP18 6TA

This popular fish and chip shop sits between Southwold and Wlaberswick. Unfortunately it was destroyed in a fire two years ago, but it opened on Friday, March 28 after being rebuilt. 

The fish and chip shop has seating outside with customers able to enjoy the estuary and harbour, with livestock often grazing across the water. 

5. Regal Fish Bar & Restaurant

Where: Sea Road, Felixstowe IP11 2DH
