Rate My Takeaway's Danny Malin reviews Binley Mega Chippy - and was left underwhelmed

It's finally here, Danny Malin's review of the now world-famous Binley Mega Chippy. Binley Mega Chippy, if you don't know recently gained viral status on TikTok, the somewhat relentless theme tune alongside its garish signage has had people from all over the country and the world visiting.

Viewers of Rate My Takeaway have been eagerly awaiting Danny Malin's review of the chippy after he was spotted visiting the other day. The YouTuber was pictured sitting outside in his iconic chair in front of his fold-out table.

Malin had an assortment of Binley goodies including fish and chips, condiments and a bread roll. The post was captioned: "Binley Mega Chippy, Completed it mate."

Danny, born in Watford, now of Pudsey, is known for his in-depth reviews of UK takeaways. Often he is seen sitting outside sampling the goods, giving an unfiltered review of pizzas, kebabs and other meals.

Danny arrived at the Coventry fish and chip shop, spying around 40 to 50 people queuing out the door. In true Malin fashion, he joined the queue and didn't abuse his celebrity status to have a chat with those waiting for their Binley food.

Malin spoke to a group in the queue who said: "Might take a couple of hours" to which Danny replied: "Is that how long it takes?! To get a bag of chips?"

After a long, long wait, entertaining the bored Binley queue, Danny finally gets served. Here's what he ordered:

  • Fish and chips
  • Peas, beans, curry and gravy
  • Faggot and pea batch (Breadcake)
  • A saveloy

In total, Danny's order came to £18.09. Seems a little steep but then again, Binley is now a world-class eating establishment, they can charge what they want.

Much like everyone else, Danny was shocked to see the number of people waiting for food, he said: "It's all going on. I cannot believe the amount of people that are queuing up to come here, it's all happening, it tooks us around 20 minutes to get served."

Do you like Danny Malin's reviews? Let us know in the comments.

Danny dives into the bag of wonders, sampling each one. The fish and chips, with a fish so large it had to be broken in two to fit into the box and various sauces brought out Malin's delight, with him calling them: "The awesome foursome."

He seemed a little disappointed by his faggot and pea breadcake, however. After one bite, Malin made a noise that was not positive and said: "Oh, if I'm honest I don't like that, I am not up for that."

When some viewers come up to say hi to Danny he says: "Have you ever had a faggot? Don't have one, they are not nice, but the fish and chips smell good."

The fish and chips made a comeback though. Danny said they were decent, crispy and fresh from the fryer. Thr gravy was a showstopper which Malin drizzled over his fish whilst singing the Binley Mega Chippy theme.

So overall, Rate My Takeaway didn't enjoy the faggot, mainly the texture, but the peas, beans, curry and gravy were described as "standard".

The chips were also rated: "standard". Danny said, just before the end: "With all this hype around Binley Mega Chippy, I've done some chippy reviews in my time and I've been to some absolute crackers has this met it? Do you know what, what it is, I think it's great that social media has put a little shop on a platform, people are coming and having a good time but for me it's just your standard fish and chips, I'm gonna give it a solid eight, well done to these guys."
