SHAP Chippy has been shortlisted in the Fish and Chip Shop of the Year category for the 2020 National Fish Chip awards.

As a countdown to the ceremony the chippy will be dishing out free fish suppers to their first 20 customers tomorrow as a thank you for their continued support.

Marcus Coleman, chief executive at Seafish, the organisation that runs the awards said: “With just under one week to go, we’re eagerly awaiting to find out who will be crowned the best fish and chip shop in the UK for 2020.

"We love celebrating great fish and chips, and tomorrow we want to celebrate the consumers who support the industry by buying their fish supper every week. Be sure to check if your local shop has made the cut.

“Being shortlisted as a finalist for the flagship award is a phenomenal achievement and we hope people will head along on Friday to cheer on their local shop and enjoy some free fish and chips! Everyone in the final truly deserves their spot and we wish them all the best of luck next week.”

The winner of the Fish and Chip Shop of the Year Award will be announced at The National Fish & Chip Awards’ 32nd anniversary awards ceremony in London on January 23.
