Mother Hubbard’s, often branded the country’s most famous chippy, is offering a limited-time price to mark the opening of a new branch in Coventry.

Customers can enjoy a traditional fish and chips for just 45p when the city centre store opens on June 14.

The exclusive offer pays a special homage to the iconic chippy’s history.

Mother Hubbard’s first ever store opened in Bradford back in 1972, and has since expanded across the country.

But back when the Bradford chippy opened, the price of a classic fish dinner would sell for 45p.

It’s for this reason the store has set its special new offer at that price.

But customers will have to be quick if they want to take advantage of the deal.

The new Coventry store will sell fish and chips at this price just to the first 1,000 customers through its doors on opening day.

It means anyone looking to cash in on the deal will likely have to get to the store as quickly as possible.

The chippy will hold its grand opening on Saturday, June 14 – with doors opening at 11am.

The new Coventry Mother Hubbard’s told social media followers: “Exciting news, Coventry!

“Get ready to dive into nostalgia as Mother Hubbard’s lands in Coventry!

“Join us on Saturday, June 14, for our grand opening and snag some classic fish and chips for just 45p—the original 1972 price-for the first 1000 guests!

“When: 11am – 11pm. Where: 11-13 The Burges, Coventry CV1 1HH.

“Don’t miss this tasty blast from the past! Join us for a celebration filled with delicious bites and the essence of classic English cuisine.”

Mother Hubbard’s website says: “Fish and Chips are loved by every generation. Are you looking for crispy batter on the tastiest fish, succulent chips & perfect mushy peas?

“Look no further than Mother Hubbard’s and indulge in the finest traditional fish and chips in the area.

“The First Mother Hubbard’s fish & chips restaurant on Ingleby Road, Bradford, was completed at a cost of £92,000 in 1972.

It was opened on May 3, 1972 by Coronation Street favourites, Stan and Hilda Ogden. At that time, fish and chips were served at just 45p per portion.”
