Arthur Treacher's Fish & Chips
In 1969, ARTHUR TREACHER'S purchased the original fish and chips recipe from a London restaurant called Malin's of Bow (dating back to the 1860s), and with it, the original fish and chips recipe. Since then, we've adjusted the menu to accommodate American tastes and expanded it to include shrimp, clams, fried chicken and side orders including tasty hush puppies and our unique coleslaw. All of which makes ARTHUR TREACHER'S DISH & CHIPS the English meal perfect for today's all-American appetite.
