Description

We have been dropping battered fish and perfectly cut tatties into our sizzling pans for over 21 years. Starting our apprenticeship at our sister shop Harbour Lights in Falmouth, we have been quietly honing our frying skills and having a lot of fun along the way.

All our fish is responsibly sourced, utilising the skills of the Marine Stewardship Council and the Cornish Good Seafood Guide to help us in our selection. Our potatoes are grown at local farms, with Colwyn Farm at Perranwell Station being our principal supplier.

There has been a fish and chip shop and ice cream parlour at our location for over 50 years. Originally set up as a takeaway with small restaurant (30 covers), sadly in order to remain solvent during the Covid years we had to run it as a takeaway only. We have realised subsequently that is the best format for us. Covid and the Ukraine War have taken their toll on us financially and we need to re-invent ourselves to survive in the new world.

Our existing cooking range is not fit for purpose, it was designed to deliver food in different directions out to a restaurant and takeaway. We struggle during high season to fulfil the output demands of our takeaway and wait times can be long and demoralising. Due to the restricted confines of fitting a restaurant and takeaway into the building, we do not have the room to make our own chips on site. This project would allow us to reconfigure our layout and now fit in a chip making facility and in doing so create more local labour opportunities, boost food quality and reduce our carbon footprint.
Our current serving counter is functional but unsightly, our plan would be to install a "softer" looking counter, less stainless steel more wood and be purpose built to partner with the new cooking range.

We will assess tenders received on lowest compliant Tender.
