Eating Out: Mick's Plaice, Laceby
FISH and chips is a favourite takeaway dish, so with National Chip Week coming up from next Monday, I couldn’t resist trying out a chip shop I have heard good reports about.
We drove to the cleverly named takeaway Mick’s Plaice, in Caistor Road, Laceby, which is located in the heart of the village.

GET THEM WHILE THEY’RE HOT: Tom Watson at Mick's Plaice in Laceby
For a Saturday night, it was fairly quiet, but we had a nice warm welcome by the staff... and the smell of the chips, of course!
I ordered a fish cake special (£1.70) with chips (£1.15) and mushy peas (70p).

My dining partner ordered large fish (£3.50), with chips and mushy peas again.
It didn’t take long to place our order, but while we were waiting we had a nice chat to the staff.
Altogether, it cost £8.45, and we couldn’t wait to get them home to satisfy our rumbling tummies.
After a short drive, we got back home and rushed to grab our cutlery and tomato ketchup.
We were a little worried the food might be cold, but it wasn’t – in fact, it was piping hot.
My fish cake special included two medium-sized battered cakes, which were delicious. They were not greasy and had a nice hint of herbs.
My chips were divine and there were plenty of them. You usually get a few black bits in a portion, but these were all perfectly formed fluffy potatoes – delicious! It was even better when I dipped them into the mushy peas.
My partner said his fish was fluffy and white, and had a tasty batter coating. He even said it was the best fish and chips he has had so far this year – and we try out a lot of chippies!
Mick’s Plaice is a real gem, and is well-worth the drive. It was a top-class friendly service, and the real star of the meal was the delicious tasting chips.
