All seafood places are takeout. This one is the only seafood FAST FOOD drive through place. And that's not a good thing. People ignore LJS because most of them are closed and they've always sucked.

Used to be connected to A&W and I could get frosty mug with my meal and it was great. Then they just slowly disappeared. I thought they had gone under for a long time until I saw some youtuber raving about them.
Looked them up and there was only one in my city and it was in THAT part of town.
But recently a new one opened closer to me so I gave it a shot.
The cashier was a really nice girl she said I had pretty eyes and was clearly flirting with me. But she was a little too fat and I think she must have some kind of mental disability she gave off that kind of vibe.
Waited ages on my order they said they were making it fresh but then the drive through stole my food somehow so they had to remake it.
It was good, the breading they use is unlike any other place I've tried. But it was super greasy, can't imagine eating there often without having the worst shits.
Also it was insanely expensive, two small pieces of chicken and one piece of fish and some hushpuppies was 15 dollars didn't even come with a drink.
Doubt I'll go back but I don't regret it, I wish fried fish culture was bigger in the US. I envy the fish and chips the UK bros have.
>>
>>22274971
>Because fish and chips is not a thing in America and never will be
That's because we can't get fresh fish
>>
>>22274971
>And 90% of youtube food reviews in the UK are at chippies lol
I've been watching some of these recently and it's wild how much depth they'll go into over such a plain and simple food. At least with other shit in that niche like pizza or burgers then there can be a big variation in preparation or toppings but this shit is literally just battered fried fish. There's no variation, there's no seasoning, and they'll go into these fucking essays over the details of the crispiness of the batter, is there the right amount of oil, what's the texture of the interior batter, has too much oil from the batter dripped onto the chips, etc etc. Poor fuckers.
>>
>>22274971
>Because fish and chips is not a thing in America
Actually LJS doesn't have chips. They only have waffle fries. Maybe good UK-style chunky chips is what they're missing.
>>
>>22274971
>Because fish and chips is not a thing in America
Absolutely retarded. I'm in rural PNW, and EVERY bar and pub does fish and chips (usually as a Friday special if it's not on the menu). People go apeshit for it. Mostly cod and halibut from alaska. Some places even have proper vinegar to dip in. No mushy peas tho. That's fag shit.
>>
>>22275227
>there's no seasoning
I watch them too but they do add seasoning and there seems to be a lot of variation, that's why they do the reviews, it seems people like you are bitter that you have never been there and tried them for yourself.
>>
>>22274900
The only one near me closed ages back. I miss the hushpuppies sometimes but nothing else really.
>>

The one near me went fucking downhill fast

Last time i went there for popcorn shrimp, instead of actual Long John's shrimp it was literal store-bought generic brown frozen shite
>>
>>22274971
I'll agree to an extent with this lady. Whilst her assessment that 90% of food reviews are fish and chips is estrogen laden hyperbole, she is right that we put a great significance on it. What I will say is that I've been to Long John Silver's in Boston and it's awful. The calibre compared to even the shittest place in the UK is well below. We're lucky to be able to get the freshest white fish from the greatest area. And our potatoes are usually of a high quality. But at the end of the day it's just fish and chips.
>>
>>22275221
America has better and fresher fish than bong land ever will
>>
>>22275735
This is a risible comment. It can't be from an actual American, surely it's from a subcontinental troll?
>>
>>22275769
Fish tends to be fresher in the UK on average due to its smaller island geography, shorter supply chains from local day boats (such as those docking at Brixham and other UK ports), and rapid distribution to markets and fishmongers. Suppliers frequently source directly from regional quays and local fleets, allowing fresh, never-frozen wild-caught fish (like cod, haddock, plaice, and mackerel) to hit counters within 24 to 48 hours of landing. North Atlantic white fish is globally renowned and considered a premium standard.
>>
>>22275783
No thanks. I'd rather tilapia farmed in Mississippi, frozen and distributed cross country.
>>
>>22274971
Well Americans dont do "chips", we do fries. But yeah its easy to get fried fish and fries at most places near a coast.
>>
>>22275266
Full English breakfast. Its probably not fully authentic but I've gotten that at many places in the Northeast USA.
>>
>>22275819
You can get some form of full English across hotels, at least, throughout the world. Even in the achlachlach type of countries, but they usually do beef sausages and lamb bacon.
>>
>>22274900
could only survive in middle america, everywhere along coast, there are ten local seafood places with fresh seafood, especially along gulf of AMERICA, available for call in takeout

cod, haddock, whiting, pollack, hake, halibut, perch, mackerel, herring, atlantic bluefin tuna, plaice, turbot, brill, sole, brown trout, rainbow trout, salmon, brown crab, lobster, langoustine, prawns, shrimps, scallops, oysters, cockles, clams, mussels.
Fuck off with your faggoty "son" and "n sheit". You little wigger cunt. The likes of you are so fucking tiresome especially when being smug, haughty, arrogant and completely fucking ignorant. Also "lol": what are you, a fucking 13 year old? Cock.

Lamb bacon sounds pretty good actually, i would try that
>>
>>22277684
I've had "macon", it's quite good. When I've had it, it's more thinly sliced and less generous because it's a more expensive meat. So sort of pointless. A couple of mouthfuls per portion.

I haven't had a LJS near me for at least 15 years now, the closest one is 19 miles away in Chicago and no fucking way am I driving that far for their food. Honestly the only time I went to the local one, the food sucked and the place was a dump, you could feel the fryer grease hanging in the air. Blech. When I was a kid in the 80's, it was a decent place to eat and had failry nice decor, as best as I can remember. So was A&W, too, and that got degraded and ruined over time, too...

there are hundreds of places that look identical to this in new england
>>
>>22274971
Plenty of places to dish and chips because plenty of places already do fries and other fried food, retard. How good it will be varies greatly, but then that's the case in britain as well.

Not them but there are shitloads of places serving fried fish with french fries where I live even in middle of nowhere, midwest. I think you're trying to say that "fish and chips" isn't something that we consider a cornerstone of American cultural cuisine like a hamburger or a milkshake. We don't identify with it the same as the Brits do.

No, the point was always whether or not it's a thing, and if it's offered everywhere then it's a thing. You are the one moving the goalposts now to saying there needs to be a lot of restaurants that specialize in just the fish and chips specifically like your chippy shops.
A chippy is just a place that serves fried food with fish and chips being their most popular item typically. Guess what retard? Plenty of places in the states do that and they offer fish and chips. Every sports bar does that, plenty of restaurants do that, they just don't say "fag and bitch chip shop" because that type of advertising wouldn't work in the states like it would in Britain.

>>22278858

It's low because Americans are so bombarded with options that we'd find a basic fish and chips restaurant boring. We'd be far more interested in watching someone review a hole in the wall Mexican joint than another place that sells fried fish. Pic related is a spot that has been open in my town of less than 18k for as long as I've lived here. You won't see a youtuber visit this place because no one gives a shit. Here in the midwest, sunday fish fries happen often where I live at fucking church lol.

One more, though this is more like one of your fancier places that specializes in fish and chips. Still located all around the US. You can do a nicer sit-down experience here but takeaway fish and chips is always an option.

Anyway that's just big national brandnames, plenty of smaller local places like other anons mentioned. You'll reply to all three of these places and pretend it doesn't count but not be able to give an actual reason.
