Committed to serving fish and chips, we are open everyday except Christmas Day (even then we’re asked to open).īrenda Wells and Susan Burns have been with us since 19 and are still frying today. In difficult circumstances, we remained open the next day. Susan sadly died the same year, the day before Aldeburgh Carnival. Their son Alan and his wife Zuzana joined in 2010 after finishing University. Peter’s wife Susan joined in 1977, helping to run the business. After leaving school at 16, he went on to filleting fish and frying. Peter started in the shop as a boy, taking money and giving the change. We started with 3 employees, today we have over 30. We opened The Golden Galleon in 1997, then The Upper Deck in 2000. Eventually the only way to expand was to get another shop. We started with a 2-pan range and have since upgraded to a 4, then 5 and now 6 pan ranges. Trade grew rapidly causing the shop to get bigger and living accommodation smaller.
