5 reviews of Concorde Fish Bar in English
i was there last saturday with my friends and i got a 16 inch quattrostagione which was amazing with a tub of ben and jerrys cookie dough.5 out of 5.
service was great .worth a try.
I was there last night and had the worst chippy in a long time. I opted for the home made pizza and wish I hadn’t bothered. The base of the pizza was brick hard and was nearly impossible to cut through. My friend got a fish supper and most of it ended up in the bin.
My advice would be to fight the hunger and wait until you get home.
In my opinion, the best chippy to be found in the Tollcross area. They generally get the chips spot on, and they are much crispier and less soggy than the kebab shops' chips for some reason.
Although to be honest, if it's 3 in the morning and you've just been out all night, it really doesn't matter which greasy chip shop you go to. It's all the same when you're wasted.
Chips with chippy sauce are decent, and they have a bizarre collection of grocery items. If you ever need Rice Krispies, dog food or loo roll at 2am, Concorde is your place. Otherwise pretty standard chip shop fare.
However, this is one of the cleanest take-aways ever. Even empty shelves and the window sills are scrupulously clean, which shows a certain attention to detail if nothing else.
After a couple of pints, waiting at Tollcross for that Number 16 bus (that never seems to arrive on time due to all the road works in Edinburgh … don’t get me started !), you will find The Concorde situated right beside the bus stop. Oh boy it’s just too tempting! A nice bag of chips, salt and brown “chippie” sauce. £1.40 for a bag of chips does seems a lot but they are good.
A very busy little place so be prepared to queue, however they have a very efficient system for serving so you do get served quite quickly.
