M&S launches first ever one-stop Fish’n’Chip shop
It’s the UK’s favourite takeaway* and synonymous with Friday night suppers, with 1 in 5 Brits enjoying the dish once a week, but is it time for something a bit more #thisisnotjust? M&S has taken the humble chippy and dialled it up a notch; catering for both the classics we know and love as well as mixing in some unexpected seafood specials.
Not only did we cause a stir with our recent Chip Shop Scraps, but we’re also the first to bring Wholetail Langoustine Scampi and Battered Scallops to UK shoppers, shaking up that Friday night fish tea and sprinkling some M&S magic on it. Best of all, you can find all your chip shop essentials together in the chiller aisle for ultimate shopping ease.
