After months of anticipation, the winner of MK's Best Chippy has finally been announced after Milton Keynes residents 'battered' it out to nominate their favourite chippy for the top spot.
Rising energy bills and increased costs of cooking oil, potatoes and fish due to the war in Ukraine has meant the price of fish and chips has gone up.
To support struggling fish and chip shops in Milton Keynes, MKFM relaunched their search to find the very best chippy in the local area.
