Nottinghamshire chippy narrowly misses out on winning UK's best restaurant

A Nottinghamshire chippy has narrowly missed out on winning the crown at prestigious national awards. The Cod's Scallops in West Bridgford was one of five across the UK in the running for Restaurant of the Year.

The restaurant and takeaway, which have been open for less than a year at Wilford Lane Retail Park, was pipped to the post by Fish City in Belfast. The Cod's Scallops was the only Nottinghamshire chip shop to be shortlisted out of hundreds of applications in the National Fish & Chip Awards.

Owner John Molnar said: "It's an amazing achievement for us in a restaurant that is under 12 months old." He had been hoping to repeat the success of 2020 when the very first Cod's Scallops in Bramcote Lane, Wollaton, was named the UK champion.
