Pas-de-Calais: Discover the best chip shop in France
In France, there are 1,428 designated chip shops and according to Les-Friteries.com’s 2022 ranking, the best of them all is in Pas-de-Calais in the town of Hersin-Coupigny.
Good potatoes, oil and salt, simple ingredients for a dish that young and old alike love and that is best enjoyed when it’s done well: fries. And for this year 2022, which has just ended, it is the hersinoise chip shop of Hersin-Coupigny which wins the prize for the best chip shop in France.
This is not very surprising, but the ranking of the ten best chip shops in France is mainly occupied by establishments from the North and Pas de Calais. Only the chip shop at Mel in the Haute-Marne has managed to integrate the prize list.
This year, the hersinoise chip shop run by Nelly and Peggy was named the best chip shop in France. On their Facebook page, the two owners were delighted with this distinction: “A long-term effort that has enabled us to get there, but not only! Thanks to you dear customers, your loyalty but not only.. Thank you to all our loyal customers for many years and all the new customers, thank you to our families who encourage us, thank you all !!»
