Top 5 Fish 'n' Chips Joints Across Seattle
This really is an unfair game here, seeing as it is Seattle and all, and really, how can you screw up deep-frying fish in a batter and serving it with fries, salt, and tartar sauce? But some just stick out head-and-shoulders above the rest--they've got a little edge of some sort. We know this is opening a can of worms (*ba-dum-ching*), but at some point, it's time to narrow down the heap and call out those places that we'd stage a sit-in for, if ever they were endangered.

With all the talk these days about sustainable seafood, which is growing in awareness like recycling circa 1995, this could be a touchy subject. Where are each of these places getting their fryables? While we haven't pulled a fake sting on each to get the skinny, we urge you, oh powerful reader, to taste, test, and ask this summer! Here now are the current top 5 fish 'n' chips joints across the city.
5. Too Cool for School: Pike St. Fish Fry (Cap Hill)
They serve it oh-so-hip, and there's barely a seat to sit in, and yet, Capitol Hill residents just keep flocking back for more. With ling cod, halibut, and catfish always on the menu, plus a fresh fish-of-the-day and a host of other bites, the Fish Fry is worth the trip around the corner before hitting your drinking hole of choice. Where else are you going to get deep-fried asparagus and frito misto that you can plunge into a cup of smoked chili mayo? Nowhere.That's where. Plus there are lots of sauces to dip everything in, and since fried things are primed for dipping, it's a match made in hipster heaven.
