Award winning fish & chip shop lands in Bath next Monday

The Scallop Shell is landing in town on Monday 15th December, bringing award-winningly delicious fish & chips to the people of Bath at its new Monmouth Place shop, and will be followed by an extension of the premises in January which will then create the 40-seater Scallop Shell Fish & Chip Shop and Seafood Grill.

Run by Garry Rosser with his family and team of fish & chip connoisseurs, Garry is returning to the city where his chef career began prior to specialising in fish at FishWorks before setting up this, his own business in 2008.

This second branch of The Scallop Shell, the first at White Row Farm Shop in Beckington near Frome, will be serving up the very best in traditional favourites such as mouth watering lightly battered, flaky cod and haddock served with chips cut daily from the best seasonal spuds, mushy peas, curry and tartare sauce, to battered or grilled Catch of the Day which regularly includes whiting, gurnard, plaice and sole, and the best of seasonal seafood. The Catch of the Day will sit in a unique bath tub full of ice for customers to pick their own fish supper, with fishing related props filling the shop, adding to the relaxed, mariner feel.

Garry says of the opening: “ I have a long held passion for sourcing great seafood, and we are so proud to bring the Scallop Shell’s delicious, sustainable, high quality fish & chips, both traditional favourites and perhaps some new dishes to Bath for people to try. It just means so much to us. I feel like I’m coming home!”

The Scallop Shell was listed, out of a whopping 12,000 fish and chip shops, in the top 60 in the UK in the National Seafish Awards 2015.

This latest addition to Bath city centre will be serving fish & chips to takeaway from Monday 15th December. Opening hours are 12noon – 9.30pm Monday – Saturday. For Christmas opening hours please check the website www.thescallopshell.co.uk.

The launch date for the extended Scallop Shell Fish & Chip Shop and Seafood Grill, where diners can enjoy the best in sustainable seafood dishes as well as award winning fish & chips, will be announced shortly.
