Are you in reality a hobbit, then?? (And no, not for any other reason... )
IIRC they have

Afternoon Tea

Supper...
One day I'll manage to sneak out for afternoon tea at Bettys...

So, at last, we have a definitive ruling!
If it comes with chips, it's "Dinner" - whenever and wherever it is served. If not, it is "lunch".
Sounds good to me...

Well I HAVE met you...although I have no idea whether or not you have big hairy feet. As for anything else you might share with a hobbit, big and hairy or otherwise, I can claim no such intelligence.
But, since there appears to be something that might be interesting to discover here, you can be assured that I will now resort to whatever tricks and strategies are necessary to enable me to acquaint myself with the intimate details...

The best description I heard was that 'dinner' is the main meal of the day, at whatever time of day you partake.
As a fully qualified oik of long standing and breeding it is my usual practice have it at dinner time when the denizens of places like Ilkey (save perhaps one?) are probably having lunch.
Incidentally, on the fish shop front, much as I like Murgatroyd's it has to bow down to the Wetherby Whaler in Pudsey, which reigns supreme for my money.

Do they really have Dinner Men now? That's just wrong, what has the country come to? I blame the immigrants....

I think that's a very good call. That's exactly the reason I'm such a rotund individual. Combine it with the Curry Thread and it's entirely RA&B's fault.

No butter for me. Salt, vinegar & decent tomato sauce.

There are a few who do pies, chicken and sausages etc but as other posters have suggested it seems to be more prevalent on the dark side of the Pennines.
It's one of the main reasons why we do far better fish and chips than they do; along with using proper, chip 'oil fish (haddock), ours concentrate on doing one thing properly, without all the frippery. You know what they say, jack of all trades, master of none!

| Having said all of which, if it ain't cooked in drippin, it ain't top quality fish'n'chips. And the number of places in Bradford that still use dripping is not a lot.

Funny that. Many years ago when I was a kid at school we went on a trip which included "high tea" (it [iwas [/ito York) and "high tea" turned out to be ....................fish and chips!!
So high tea always means fish 'n' chips in our house.

high tea is simply a more formal tea party.
and as I've previously explained, tea parties are a form of lunch

If that's an ironic comments, well done
If you didn't read the whole thread and are asking a genuine question, then the answer is the Odsal Fisheries right on the roundabout at Odsal Top, its at the very top of Huddersfield Road.
