Its Friday!!!

And that means Fish & Chips time!

Did you know we offer smaller adult portions? Perfect if you fancy the flavour without the full-on feast.

And here’s a little life hack… you can order ahead so you’re not hanging around waiting. In, out, home, feet up. Job done.

call to pre-order, your Friday just got easier 😉
