The Bizzie Lizzie’s team receive their award for the quality of their food
A former UK fish and chip shop of the year has scooped another award for the quality of its food.
Bizzie Lizzie’s in Skipton landed a five-star rating from Seafish, the UK seafood authority, after an inspection of its Swadford Street shop .
Lynda Fielding, Seafish’s quality advisor, said: “Displaying the Seafish Fish Friers Quality Award shows customers that the shop is one of the best fish-frying businesses in the country.”
Bizzie Lizzie’s was established in 1986 by Jean Ritson. The group also runs two other fish and chip shops – Bizzie’s, in Skipton’s High Street car park, and Eastwoods in Keighley Road.
Jean said: “We have continued to invest in and develop the group. Our flagship Bizzie Lizzie’s shop has received countless accolades over the years, including being chosen as UK Fish And Chip Shop of the Year and becoming the first fish and chip shop in North Yorkshire to gain the Investors In People award.
“This latest award is testimony to the efforts and commitment of our managers and staff.”
