A new fish n’ chip shop food hut opened at a popular Isle of Wight pub this Easter

The Folly Inn, Whippingham, which has recently undergone a six-figure refurbishment, launched the Folly Fish n’ Chip shop on Good Friday (April 7)

As well as traditional fish and chips, staff are also be dishing up battered halloumi, kids nuggets and ample sides, including mushy peas and curry sauce.

The new hut is based in the outdoor garden of the Greene King pub.

Alongside the al fresco experience, a full service outdoor bar has also been added.

This offers a range of draught lagers, ciders, spirits, and craft ales including Greene King’s own ‘Icebreaker’.

Saoirse Doolan, General Manager of The Folly Inn, said: “As it’s tradition to eat a fish and chip supper on Good Friday, what better day to have launched our new garden hut.

“This opens up even more spaces for guests to dine with us in our newly transformed garden and will give people the full seaside experience.

“The Fish and Chip Shop is something unique to our offering and we’re excited to welcome new and returning customers to give it a try.”

To celebrate the launch, the pub hosted Easter activities for the whole family, including a charity Easter egg hunt event and live music across the weekend.
