Forty of the UK\u2019s best fish and chip shops are ready to \u2018batter\u2019 it out to gain the acclaimed Takeaway of the Year title as the category shortlist for the National Fish & Chip Awards 2025 is announced.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Organised by the National Federation of Fish Friers (NFFF), the awards provide an \u2018oppor-tuna-ty\u2019 for fish and chip outlets across the UK to show the industry exactly what they are made of. However, the process isn\u2019t easy and includes a meticulous set of tasks, challenges and interviews covering industry awareness, product knowledge, environmental and sustainability best practice, employer responsibilities, customer service, and more.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

A panel of fish and chip experts have had the tough task of assessing the impressive takeaways that entered and while those shortlisted have already been making waves in the competition, the awards process will stretch them in many ways to ensure that these standout businesses set a new precedence for quality and industry standards.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

President of the NFFF, Andrew Crook, says the category has seen many fantastic submissions. \u201cFish and chips is such an iconic British staple and it takes huge amounts of skill and hard work to not only perfect the dish and other menu offerings but to also overcome challenges and sustain the business while keeping employees motivated and fulfilled. There\u2019s a lot to it and each awards season we see greater depths of talent, expertise and business acumen and this trend has continued this year, too.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cTakeaway of the Year is the big one, so it goes without saying that the journey it takes contenders on is very intense. At each stage learnings and recommendations are provided to encourage the hopefuls to keep pushing forward and that\u2019s why the National Fish & Chip Awards is seen as the competition for chip shop owners that want the additional steer to become better than they were before. We\u2019re off to a brilliant start and we\u2019re excited for the next rounds and to honour these deserving people.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
