And the Best Fish Fryer Award was as always decided by live fry-off on the day of the ceremony.

Best Fish Fryer was won by Romy’s & Family (Bearsden), with highly recommended (HR) spots for Emanuels Fish and Chip Shop (East Kilbride), Tonys Chip Shop (Shawhead), Enzo’s Fish and Chips (Irvine), Pepe’s Manhatten (East Kilbride).

And the overall winner of Best British Fish Fryer was Romy’s & Family (Bearsden) – the winner of the Scottish Award went head to head with the winner of the English version which took place earlier this year.

Warren Paul, awards director at Paramount Creative, said: “It’s a real thrill to see the impact a win or Highly Recommended place at these awards can have on businesses.

“In these exceptionally difficult times for us all, the recognition and reassurance brought by these honours can genuinely save jobs, even businesses.

“The public and the industries themselves know that our awards are truly legitimate, with rigorous procedures in place which are constantly evaluated to ensure our winners are absolutely the best in their sector and category.

“So people trust our events. They know that the winners of these intensely fought Scottish Fish and Chip Awards are genuinely the best in the country right now, thanks to our in-person mystery judging of every single finalist all over Scotland.

“Months of hard work have gone into that, with judges heading everywhere from the Borders to the Highlands to the Islands.

“The standard is exceptional among entrants in general and then finalists, and now winners – so to those who didn’t do as well as they hoped, keep trying.

“Scottish produce, from seafood to spuds, is the best in the world and the decades of experience in transforming it into our most traditional takeaway makes Scotland’s fish and chips the best of the best.

“We’re thrilled to shine a light on the family businesses all over the country who serve up delicious fried favourites to all of our families week after week, year after year.

“That’s exactly why we put such hard work in to deliver our awards of all kinds – to showcase the unsung heroes alongside those who are better known. It’s simply about shouting about the very best.”

Paramount Creative ran the awards along with other food and drink honours including Italian, Spice and Confetti Wedding.

With record numbers of entries, nominations and votes the awards are growing every year.

For Warren, it’s about helping small businesses through the ongoing crises in cost of living.

He said: “We know from yearly experience that doing well in these awards has a massive impact as people want to try the best – that’s why it means so much to our winners and indeed finalists.

“Congrats to all and thank you for helping us feed our families year after year, whatever is going on in the world.”

The Scottish Fish and Chip Awards were presented at the gala final at Doubletree Hilton Glasgow, hosted by Des Clarke.
