I don't think it is in existence any longer. But there was one within walking distance from my house when I lived in Miami. The fish and chips were great.

When I was in Bangor, Ireland, there was a fish and chips fast food place next to my hotel. It was late because I had just gotten off the ferry from England and nothing else was open. I got the fish and chips and they were awful, just full of grease.
