Last November, we were delighted to see a story in the Jewish Chronicle "Leeds chippy batters down faith barriers: Marlows, the first fish and chip shop with kosher facilities in the city in half a century, is able to cater for both kosher and halal customers."
You can read the full story at the link below, and don't need a subscription.

We decided to visit but didn't fancy driving there in winter!
We have now organised the trip for Sunday 12 July at 13:00. The details are below.
Date |
Sunday 12 July |
Time |
1 pm |
Where |
Marlows British Kitchen, 391 Street Lane, Moortown, Leeds LS17 6HQ. |
Travel arrangements |
Make your own way there. We recommend car sharing with friends. |
Catering |
Marlows have interior seating. The event is self-pay. |
Booking |
While Marlows is open to everyone who turns up, we are limiting our group size to 30 to avoid over-filling their premises. To ensure that we do not have too many people, please book by email to mail@muslimjewish.org.uk (clicking the link will launch your email program) to let us know how many places you are taking up. |
Our annual picnic, open to people of all faiths and none, will be held again in St Mary's Park, St Marys Road, Prestwich. We will be in the picnic area next to the car park and the tennis courts.
If you want to use Google maps, we recommend searching for The Phoenix Youth and Community Centre, St. Mary's Park, St. Mary's Rd, Prestwich, Manchester M25 1GG, which is just a few yards beyond the picnic area.
Our picnics are always very sociable occasions. Bring your own food and be willing to share — vegetarian or kosher food works best.
If you need to sit, bring your own folding chairs. There is a small amount of seating on the picnic tables, which we want to reserve for those who are unable to sit on folding chairs for physical reasons.
We hope to have a gazebo without side walls in case of rain.
Our picnics are always very enjoyable. We look forward to seeing you there.
There is no need to book; just come on the day.
