President of the NFFF, Andrew Crook, said: “Takeaway 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’s 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.

Chippies will go head to head to be crowned first 'plaice' at the Oscars of the fish and chip world in February next year.
