These are officially the best fish and chip shops in the UK - did your favourite win?

It's one of the nation's favourite takeaway options, but which UK chippies have been voted the best in their field?

From Fish and Chip Shop of the Year to Marketing Innovation and Best Newcomer, the National Fish & Chip awards showcase the best the country has to offer.

The annual awards recognise talent and celebrate excellence, quality and choice offered by businesses across the fish and chip industry in a variety of award categories.

What makes the 'best' chippy so good?

Nominees are appraised in each of the key areas that highlight best practice against a range of criteria. Mystery dining judges visit the shops to assess a number of factors, including responsible sourcing practices, customer service, staff training policies, and the overall quality of the fish and chips on offer.
