The Mayfair Chippy Marks a Decade with a Golden Celebration

London’s love affair with fish and chips has found its modern muse in The Mayfair Chippy, and this November, the capital’s favourite upmarket chippy is turning ten. To celebrate a decade of crispy cod, perfectly salted chips, and the unmistakable comfort of Britain’s best loved dish, The Mayfair Chippy is marking the occasion in truly golden fashion.

On 11 November, one lucky diner will find more than a meal waiting for them. Hidden among the orders of the famous Mayfair Classic will be a Golden Mayfair Classic, an edible treasure wrapped in shimmering gold paper and brimming with the restaurant’s iconic fare. Whoever receives it will win a prize fit for a London foodie: free fish and chips for an entire year.

That means twelve months of indulgence in the ultimate British comfort dish, a perfectly battered fillet of cod, haddock, or hake, served with chips, mushy peas, tartare sauce, and a choice of chip shop curry sauce or HP gravy. Vegetarians and vegans need not feel left out either, as The Mayfair Chippy has always been as inclusive as it is indulgent, offering equally tempting plant based alternatives.

The golden prize entitles the winner to enjoy two Mayfair Classics each month for a year, a table for two, booked in advance, to savour London’s most refined take on a seaside staple. It is a fitting gift from a restaurant that has spent ten years redefining what a chippy can be: charmingly British, yet elevated enough to attract queues that regularly stretch around the block.

Since opening its doors a decade ago, The Mayfair Chippy has mastered the art of balance, pairing nostalgia with nuance, and tradition with a touch of London polish. It is not just about the crunch of the batter or the softness of the chips, it is the atmosphere, the service, the ritual. The white tiled walls, the scent of vinegar in the air, and the low hum of conversation create a space that feels at once classic and current.

In an age where dining can often feel like theatre, The Mayfair Chippy has stayed refreshingly grounded. It is a place where quality reigns supreme, but pretension is left at the door. Here, everyone, from Mayfair locals to visitors chasing their first authentic British fish supper, comes together over a plate that speaks a universal language of comfort.

So if you fancy your chances at winning a year’s worth of London’s finest fish and chips, head to The Mayfair Chippy on 11 November and order the Mayfair Classic. You never know, your meal might just come wrapped in gold.

Whether you strike lucky or not, there is something worth celebrating in every bite. After all, few things feel as quintessentially British as sharing fish and chips with someone you love, and for ten years, The Mayfair Chippy has been serving that simple joy on every plate.

Here’s to the next decade of golden moments.
