Fish and chips from Fish City, which won 'Restaurant of the Year' at the National Fish and Chip Awards 2023.
A Belfast restaurant has won ‘Restaurant of the Year’ at the National Fish and Chip Awards 2023.
Fish City was up against stiff competition from venues around the UK, but it walked away with two awards.
The National Fish and Chip Awards are a UK-wide competition which aim to celebrate "true excellence" in the industry organised by Seafish, the public body that supports the seafood industry.
The Ann Street venue also won the 'Environment and Sustainability Champion' award. It was the only restaurant nominated across all categories.
In a social media post, Fish City said: “Wow, what can we say! We took it home to Belfast! The UK's Environment & Sustainability Champion and Restaurant of the Year! What an honour to be recognised at the National #fishandchipawards by the @NFFF_UK So, so incredibly proud of our team! Over the moon!”
