About Victoria Hot Spot
At Unit 7 in Carrickfergus, Victoria Hot Spot serves fish and chips alongside pink pasties, an item not found on every menu of this kind.

The shop operates as a takeaway, suited to picking up food rather than eating in.

Customer Review Summary
Fish supper draws praise, with one reviewer calling it the best fish and batter, huge chunks of white fish. Rising prices now make it an occasional treat rather than a weekly habit. Others report disappointment: a pink pastie and onion rings falling short of a prior visit, and one calling it among the worst chippies in Northern Ireland. One diner found service slow but worth the wait.

“I had a fish supper tonight and I did enjoy it nice chips and a decent size fish but at over £15 (delivery included) sadly now it's just a rare treat when I used to have it once a week but we're in a cost of living crisis and I just can't afford it every week now”

“As a Carrick native back on a visit from UK I was really looking forward to a pink pastie and real onion rings. I had these on my last visit a year ago and they were fabulous. However, last night was far from fabulous. I have never eaten …”

“While others are fighting for the top spot there is some competition for the worst chippie in Northern Ireland. You'd be excused to probably believe a place in Carrickfergus could make chips …”
