If you are looking for the BEST fish & chips in town, look no further than Scotty Simpson’s. Located on Detroit’s west side, they aren’t just selling fish and chips on Fridays during lent. Not here. Here, fresh cod is flown in daily from Halifax, Nova Scotia. Scotty Simpson’s Fish & Chips has been a Detroit landmark since 1950, when James (Scotty) Simpson opened the doors. Little has changed since then. There have been only three owners: Scotty, (Uncle) Sean Gilmore, and the current owner, Harry Barber. Harry has worked at Scotty’s, as the regulars call it, since 1966.
