To decide the winners of the Fry Awards, mystery diners visited a range of takeaways and restaurants and assessed each place on food quality, cleanliness, staff expertise, value for money, ease of ordering and social media presence.

Each place was scored out of 100%, with many receiving a full 100%, and others receiving at least 96% or above.

Organiser Reece Head, said: “Congratulations to this year’s award winners! Another year has passed and, once again, these shops have shown resilience, adapting to today’s challenges with remarkable dedication. At a time when inflationary pressures are being felt, these businesses continue to stay positive and prioritise their customers, maintain exceptional standards, and find innovative ways to keep fish and chips affordable.
