A Cardiff-based chippy has been recognised at The National Fish and Chip Awards 2024.

The 2024 awards were held on Wednesday (February 28) celebrating "excellence throughout the fish and chip industry".

Businesses across the UK have undergone rigorous testing and interviews in recent months to determine the winners.

President of the National Federation of Fish Friers, Andrew Crook, said: “The National Fish and Chip Awards 2024 has been a remarkable experience to be part of.

"Our winners and finalists have put their all into making their fish and chip businesses stand-out for all the right reasons.

“It’s no secret that the sector has been hit hard by economic hardship, yet we have seen first-hand how chippies up and down the country, and overseas, are thinking fast on their feet to defy the odds without compromising on ethical standpoints, quality and most importantly, great tasting fish and chips.

“We are bursting with pride for our winners and other contenders.

"It’s a privilege to be able to support and encourage them further and they should all be proud of what they’ve achieved."
