727

I’m kicking up 727’s Unilocal 3-​star rating with five big stars based on my fist time in the door. While traveling to Scotland on business, a colleague and I dropped in to the 727 after midnight to get some late night authentic U. K. Fish & Chips.
What I did not expect, was to also have my first experience with deep fried pizza! It was awesome… Friggin’ fantastic!
The fish wasn’t bad either… two large cod fillets and loaded with a huge order of fries. Cash only here as they take no plastic. Thank goodness for the ATM around the corner.
Great U.K. experience for a Yankee.

Went there after a night out. They were open and there were many other customers but the staff refused to serve me what I ordered simply because they were too lazy. I would recommend Café India or Barbecue Kings over them!

Just be a chip shop, like you are!!!
Fish and chips, tick. Sausage and chips, tick. Essentially, typical chip shop stuff, you can’t go wrong here for a late night (chip shop based) snack.
Never, I say NEVER, order anything else. Beware the pizzas, beware the kebabs, or any other non-​chippy food. Absolutely dreadful. As a resident near here for 15 years I always keep trying here (a bit of a captive market at the corner of Byres Road)…but every diversion from anything chippy-​like is a tragedy.
For kebabs or pizzas, go along the street to Café India… anywhere else really. Kebab in a tortilla wrap anyone? No salad, just meat and a squirt of chilli sauce mmmm… I don’t think so. Woeful.

when i saw the rating on this place, i thought to myself, «i must be missing something, this place is not four-​star worthy.» when we came here, it was 1am and the only thing that seems to be open in the area. Their menu ranged from fish and chips to all sorts of pasta to kebabs to pekoras… the oddest array of food offered.
After receiving our donner kebab and chicken pekora, i was a bit disgusted. Perhaps I’m just not familiar with the idea of late night fast foods in scotland, but those long pieces of bright red chicken strips didnt look like pekoras to me, and those long slivers of lamb on top of the the chips is what you would call a donner kebab?
The reviews did start to make more sense as you read them though, because once i started eating, i realized that the chips were surprisingly tasty compared to all the other things. It’s probably the only thing order-​worthy at this place. The ppl working here don’t seem to be very friendly either, but then again, i wouldnt be either if you had to serve a long line of drunk ppl at 2am all the time.

The 727 have always made some sinful chips.
There is something about this chippy that makes it a cut above most others on Byers Road. Selling suppers and all the usual meals you’ll find in a chippy, it used to be one of my favourites when I worked in the area, or even as far back as when I was in school! It took up half my lunch time getting here but I would always make the effort.
The prices are affordable but most importantly, the chips from 727 are always fresh without being smoking hot, and nice and succulent. The fact that you can use the word «succulent» to describe a chip shop is a good sign, proving that 727 really is a slice of deep fried heaven.

I’m going to start this review by stating that I am not a regular of kebab shops. I’m not the kind of girl that likes to end the evening with a burger in a plastic box BUT I will admit to occasionally being the kind of girl who sticks her nose up at the prospect of going to the kebab shop and then nicks all your chips. What can I say? Sorry.
727 is a pretty trustworthy little kebab shop on the corner of Great Western and Byres Road. i.e. the perfect location for a big of chips after a couple of drinks.
Because this place is actually quite nice — there’s almost always a queue so you will have to wait a while. The hoards of party-​goers usually provide quite a nice atmosphere though, so it’s not all bad.
Inexpensive, too — although don’t expect much banter from the staff.

Warm salty chips, cold cans of Irn Bru, brown plastic squirter of sauce, 727 has all the ingrediants that make up a good Glasgow chippy. This place is absolutely packed on a Friday and Saturday night so be prepared to wait in a queue for your post drinking carb craving.
The last time I was here my drunken brother was trying to have banter with the man behind the counter which earned him a stony stare. Can’t blame him really as I can only imagine how the number of irritating folk he must serve every night.

While, given its prime location, 727 could probably be a proprietor of diarrhoea-​enducing cold kebabs and still do a roaring trade, thankfully this place is one of the most reliable fast food takeaways in the West End.
Like all the best chippies, 727 is packed from 1pm to 3pm and 1am to 3am, keeping Glaswegians stocked up with all that’s bad for them. It’s also cleaner than your average takeaway joint and has plenty of queueing space, which eliminates the likelihood of trouble kicking off. After all, it;‘s well known there’s nothing quite as likely to start a fight in Glasgow as skipping in the chip queue.

The thing i like about this place is the real chips you get when you order yur chips. None of these fake «just out the bag» chips for me thank you. With a fantastic location for those of us who like a wee bag o chips on the way home from a night of drinking in the west end, 727 is a port of call on the way home.
Nothing special in here in terms of grub, your usual heart attack material, however its nice inside, is reasonable in price and is not a grubby little dive.
Like this place i do.

As far as chippies go, 727 is a slight cut above the average in both appearance and quality. It’s one of the few chips shops to tempt me away from my usual king rib supper to a fish one, as their portions are absolutely huge, and of good quality, with crispy batter and proper haddock rather than the pond scrapings you’ll find in more downmarket establishments.

727 is an excellent way to finish a night out, they are open late and sell a good selection of gut busting deep fried goods as well as doing a mean kebab for about £4. Often quite busy they are a popular stopping point for many on a night out. Of their menu the pakoras are pretty good although I have to admit I haven’t actually eaten here without being reasonable well oiled with cheap pints somewhere else before hand but i stand by my claim, 727 is decent chippy and is also the only place open in the area at 2 am.
