The Ultimate Pub Traditional
There is perhaps no meal more iconic than Fish & Chips. At Point Nine, we treat this classic with the respect it deserves. We wanted to create a version that felt like it belonged in a high-end gastropub but was accessible enough to enjoy right here in Andover. It’s the ultimate “comfort food” for a Friday night out or a rewarding lunch after a long week.
The Craft: The Secret to the Batter
The star of this dish is the succulent cod loin. We use a high-quality cut that stays flaky and moist under its protective coating. Our beer batter is light and airy, creating a “shatter-crisp” shell that isn’t greasy or heavy. The result is a beautiful contrast of textures—the crunch of the batter against the tender, mild fish. Served with a squeeze of fresh lemon and our creamy tartar sauce, it’s a dish that hits all the right notes.
The Point Nine Experience: Weekend Favorites
While Fish & Chips is a Friday night legend, it’s a favorite every day of the week at Point Nine. It’s a staple for our “Post-Work” crowd looking to unwind with a hearty meal and a local beer. The relaxed, community-focused vibe of our restaurant is the perfect backdrop for this traditional dish. Whether you’re sitting at a high-top with a Warbeard or outside with the family, it’s a meal that always satisfies.
