WE asked you which chippy you thought battered all other competition and hundreds of you had your say.

The Winsford and Middlewich Guardian Facebook page was flooded with comments this week as we launched the search for residents' favourite chippy.

We were so overwhelmed by the response we have put together a top 5 based on readers' comments for you to vote on in the ballot below.

An interview with the overall winner will appear in the paper in the coming weeks.

So in no particular order...

Readers loved The Corner Fish and Chip Shop on Princess Street and Foodcraft on High Street in Winsford with comments including Gemma Louise adding: "Foodcraft. Gravy is amazing" and Jewels Whitmore posted: "The Corner Fish and Chip Shop on Princess Street. Winsford. Great meal deals and family deals. Fantastic food and lovely staff."

While in Middlewich, Kings Lock Fish and Chip Shop on Booth Lane and the Middlewich Fryer on Lewin Street were clearly top of the fish and chip shops.

Amy Piper added: "Maults (now known as Kings Lock) we have friends that drive from Chester for their fish and chips."

Lorna Taylor said: "Middlewich fryer all day long! Lovely staff and always fresh fish."

But which is your overall favourite?
