If you like a taste of salt in the air as well as on your cod and chips, then head to the Aldeburgh Fish and Chip Shop on the Suffolk coast. But be warned, the queues can be torture in summer (a sure sign that it's good though). Handily, you can pop into the cosy White Hart next door and wait till things quieten down. Then take your meal and sit and eat while looking out over the beach.

There are two fish and chip shops in Aldeburgh. Both are very good as they are owned by the same proprietors. If the one at the south end (by the White Hart) has queues, try the Golden Galleon. It uses exactly the same ingredients and the staff switch between the two shops. A pint and fish and chips on at beach is very special at Aldeburgh but don't ask me why.Send your feedback or queries to been.there@guardian.co.uk
