NOTHING beats fish and chips for dinner and we're definitely not short of takeaway and restaurant options in the region.

There are delicious 'chippys' dotted across the North-East and North Yorkshire serving up the very best crispy cod with mountains of chips. 

We asked our readers on Facebook and Twitter to tell us where the best chip shops are in the region.

More than 100 of you had your say.
