Honestly, this is the best chippers you can find in Groningen. The quality and price of the fries are amazing, the sauces are tasty and the workers are so welcoming. The owner is one of the rare Dutch people who will let you attempt to speak Dutch if you want to, and as a foreigner this means a lot. I have already brought friends here and we all agree that this is the best place in town, definitely coming back!
