Fish and chips are a good source of protein, omega, carbohydrates, fibre and more importantly a lower calorie count than most people think.
Our products are all sourced by our dedictaed team who between them know exactly where, when and by whom our tasty ingredients are either caught or harvested.
Our tasty Haddock is only sourced from fisheries that have been MSC accredited (marine stewardship council) which in a nutshell means that we trace our fish from sea to plate. It is important to us that we can guarantee that our Haddock is caught in cool, clear, well managed waters, helping preserve and securing not only our future, but the whole ecosystem of our seas.
