Scotland’s First Ever Fish and Chips Awards launches next week and the team behind it are asking the people of Glasgow to help by nominating their favourite chippies.
Taking place on National Chip Week, the new awards, which are run by the team behind the well-established Scottish Italian Awards, are seeking the very best chippies in Scotland.
With the awards driven by the public, people from Glasgow will be able to vote on the places that they think are worthy of the win.
Whether it be thanks to the crunchiest batter, freshest fish and tastiest chips or even excelling at sustainability or being part of the community, everyone can vote their favourite.

Hugh Innes, owner of Tony's Chip Shop Shawhead in Coatbridge, said: “Becoming an award winning chippy has transformed my business. We get people coming from all over the UK to see what the fuss is all about.
