Khans Chippie

As Chipshops go there are certain signs that indicate a good or bad place.
Khans has plenty of good signs about it and their product is reliably good too.
First of all this place gets reliably busy and often you would struggle to enter the place past the crowds of people cueing up to get their grub.
It’s not the drunken pub crowd either but local families so there’s an air of public service about Khans.
Also the place is noticably clean and the staff seem quite content and happy.
What’s great about Khans is that you can see right back into the shop, which stretches quite far back, so there’s entertainment to be had watching the staff prepping the food in the back and it all looks very civilised.
Khans chip shop is a shop of simple fare, but it does it with a certain professionalism and cleanliness that instills a confidence in it’s patrons.
Afterall it’s as much about the food as the experience and Khans is a place i would vist again.

Some confusing stuff going on with names and internet listings here folks. The sign above the door clearly reads «Khan’s Fish Bar» (see the photo) but is listed as «Khan’s Chippie» on the internet, and to make matters worse, there’s a business called «Khan’s Fish Bar» in Bordesley Green. I would love to be able to tell you that this is due to a fast food maverick named Khan who has opened multiple outlets with scant regard for such petty concerns as clear listings, or two rival Khans in the same business but unfortunately I do not know what has caused this weird turn of events.
Catering based conspiracy theories aside, this Khan’s is a fairly no frills fast food takeaway — the food is fairly basic, the shop has seen a lot of attention in terms of décor and the ervice isn’t the best. However, most evenings around six or seven, Khans is busy, occasionally with queues spilling out onto the pavement. Why? It’s reliable and cheap. The only reason you’s ever take a date here is if you wanted to put some off you, but if you need a traditional fish and chips in this part of Balsall Heath then this is the place to go.
