It’s actually not as good as the Black Shore place in Walberswick - unfortunately I don’t think I’ve had fish n chips in Lowey for 30 years, thus my comment on this thread is even more pointless than usual. |  |

Well, nonetheless, not the least helpful so far!! Yasmins performing at the theatre, and asked if we could have proper seaside chips afterwards… I’ve not seen anywhere looking likely yet, and I’m supposed to find somewhere and check closing times whilst she’s there… but found myself in a pub atm… |  |

Another vote for Pakefield Plaice. Was always a strong favourite when we holidayed in Pakefield in the 1990s, and I still stop by these days if I'm over in Lowestoft around lunchtime. |  |

Atlantic Fish Bar on the way back up the High Street towards Sparrow's Nest, and The Dolphin, just across the road from you at the end of Bevan Street. |  | |  |

Cheers… which of those would you recommend most? I walked down from our accommodation, but will be in the car when I pick them up. |  |

The Dolphin has a small restaurant attached and you get loads of chips. The Atlantic you would have walked past on your way down the High Street, but I cant personally vouch for it, although I have heard good things. The Triangle Tavern is worth a look if you have time for a good pint........ |  | |  |

Just looked them up… Dolphin sounds better, but closes at 8pm unfortunately… Atlantic closes at 10, which would be better, but tripadvisor reviews don’t seem to do them any favours, although not many recent. Where is triangle tavern? |  |

There's a good pub that does pizzas a few streets back from the front, voted best pub by CAMRA many years in a row (get the impression not much competition), though the owner is a Norwich fan alas |  | |  |

Different owners to the ones who were there when they were a good pub. The Stanford Arms. Not sure if they do food every night anyway. |  | |  |

The good folk of Lowestoft have all eaten and gone to bed by then. And I'm not kidding.... You might end up back in 'spoons? |  | |  |

That's the one - was there maybe two, or three years ago, they had some Pukki IPA or some such that I avoided like the plague; lots of cyclists there and good atmosphere overall (and great pizzas) |  | |  |

Oh… that’s not so good. Maybe Atlantic will be our best bet then… she’d specifically asked for proper seaside chips… so not sure spoons will tick the box |  |

Two or three years ago, I would have been one of those cyclists. Not now, alas. |  | |  |
