Jeff Banks, director of Fan Engagement was delighted that the members will get the chance to choose the new shirts, “We’ve introduced some great benefits for members in the last 12 months, but the chance to have a say in the new shirts was always an important one for everyone on the Fan Engagement Working Group (FEWG) and we can all look forward to some great choices I’m sure.”

Founder, Andrew McKechnie, comments: “Our first year has been a blast, we have been busy serving our chips to our customers who enjoy our delicious, fresh food, lovely team and welcoming shop on Northgate St. This time last year most people didn’t know what a Dutch chip was, but now they know their Frikandels from their Frites sauce! We have had lots of highlights over the year from winning awards for our food and friendly staff to collaborations with The Bao Revolution, Meltdown, Chester Beer & Wine and The Konie Boys. 2020 is set up to be another great year for us with new vegan menu items, more local food collaborations, involvement in Chester Live and we’ll continue to support Chester FC and their loyal supporters. We will be out and about in our new Food Truck bringing our chips, dips & snacks to events, festivals & parties. Everyone in Chester has been so supportive so this is our way of saying thank-you with a free cone of chips!”

 

CHIP’D specialise in Dutch-style chips, taking the finest Agria potatoes, hand-chipping them, twice-cooking them before flipping in salt and serving with a mouth-watering range of sauces. CHIP’D also serve up tasty snacks such as Bitterballen, Frikandel, Croquettes, Chick’n Dippers & Mozzarella Dippers. They have an extensive vegan offer and cater to guests looking for Gluten Free or Halal options.

 

Remember, CFU members can benefit from a regular discount of 15% discount on all food upon production of CFU membership card (cannot be used in conjunction with other offers). PLUS a FREE portion of Bitterballen for CFU members on home matchdays!!!
