Waters Green Fish Bar is a traditional chippy on Waters Green, in the shadow of the market place and a short walk from Macclesfield railway station. It bills itself as the best chippy in Macclesfield.
The menu covers the classics: cod and haddock, a fish of the day, scampi, fish cakes and chips, plus barmcakes, chip barms and cheesy chips. Beyond the fryer there are pies — meat and potato, steak, cheese and onion, chicken and mushroom — along with steak puddings, burgers, sausages, doner kebabs, roast chicken breast and kiddies boxes. Peas, gravy, curry sauce and beans are all on offer alongside, and there are veggie burgers for anyone skipping the meat.
A number of items, including the chicken, the veggie burgers and the doner kebabs, are cooked fresh to order — worth asking for them as you arrive rather than waiting until you reach the counter.
The shop opens for lunch and again in the evening, Tuesday through Saturday, and is closed on Sundays and Mondays. Typical customers are Macclesfield locals picking up a Friday tea and market-day shoppers after a lunchtime portion of chips.
