At Churchill's, our journey began way back in the early 1920s when Great Grandpa Harold, and wife Dorothy painstakingly saved all the money he earned from mining and playing amateur cricket for Accrington and moved from the north to Essex to buy their first ever fish and chip shop in Romford, in 1923. Three generations of our family later, it's safe to say we're fish and chip super geeks through and through!

We believe that nothing makes memories like fish and chips. It connects us to each other in such a special way, bringing to life moments from our childhood and beyond. We think that the buying and eating of fish and chips should be a family affair, but we don't think this should be at the expense of the environment, people and communities.

The health of the oceans and future fish stocks is very important to us as we can only thrive as a business if the seas and oceans and fish within them continue to thrive. That is why we only source fish from sustainable fishing sources and our fresh Red Tractor Approved Shropshire Chickens are barn reared. We also recycle our waste oil into Bio Diesel and our packaging is made of recycled material and or biodegradable.

We are a family business that deeply cares about its people. Our business is nothing without you! We put just as much passion into your development and happiness as we do our delicious fish and chips!!

Join our family, and become a fish and chip superhero...
