The Lipscombe love affair with fish & chips began way back in the early 1920s when Harold Lipscombe a miner, and his wife painstakingly saved all the money he earned from playing cricket for Accrington — a highly regarded team — from the money supporters would generously give to the team and players who played particularly well. Fortunately Harold was a particularly good player and they were able to save enough to move to Romford, near London, and buy their first ever fish and chip shop in early 1923. We think that the buying and eating of fish and chips should be a family affair which is why we’ve put so much effort into creating a funky, modern, family friendly environment you’ll be happy to take the kids to. By bringing together our 90 years of experience with the best raw ingredients, time tested preparation and cooking processes and well trained passionate staff, we aim to provide our lovely customers with the absolute tastiest of dishes every time they visit!
