On 20th December 1928, Harry Ramsden began serving from a small striped wooden hut beside a tram stop in Guiseley, West Yorkshire. His reputation soared as takeaway customers flocked to taste his delicious fish in light, crispy batter and golden hand cut chips. Within three years, Harry opened a sit-down fish and chip ‘palace’ on the same site. Though the oak panelling and grand chandeliers were modelled on those of London’s Ritz Hotel, Harry cooked each piece of fresh cod and haddock exactly as he had always done, even when the restaurant served a world record 10, 000 portions during a single day in 1952 to celebrate its 21st anniversary.
