This fish & chips joint (a.k.a. \u201cchippy\u201d) opened in July 2020 out in Henderson during the dark days of the pandemic. It flew beneath our radar until it made a little news by closing last July due to problems with the building it was leasing, then reopening in October in a larger space in the same shopping center.<\/p>\n\n\n

Our go-to spot for fish & chips is, of course, Crown & Anchor, so we thought we\u2019d compare the Codfather\u2019s with our tried and true.<\/p>\n\n\n

Owned and operated by a native of Sheffield (in the north of England around 40 miles south of Leeds), the Codfather serves a limited menu of Brit faves that are nothing if not authentic. You have your choice of breaded (gluten-free available) and deep-fried cod, catfish, and vegan ($14.95) or haddock ($16.50) with hand-cut chips (fries). These are big fat juicy and tasty pieces of white fish. Get a side of gravy for your chips or curry sauce for your fish, along with cole slaw and the classic British side dish, mushy peas ($2.75). Codfather also offers clam chowder ($4.95\/$6.95), mushy pea fritters ($4.95), poutine, cod butty (sandwich), and the Kevin (vegetarian pot pie), all around $10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We sampled the cod and chips and mushy pea fritters and all we can say is, \u201cIn Cod We Trust!\u201d Everything, including the fries, was as good as we’d hoped. We thought one of the individual condiment packages that came with it was ketchup, but it turned out to be malt vinegar and that was even better. The Codfather\u2019s wares definitely stack right up there with Crown & Anchor\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our bill came to $21.57 with tax and that fed two of us for lunch. Though it\u2019s a trek out to the location on Green Valley Parkway near Sunset, we weren\u2019t sorry we made the effort.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
