NOTTINGHAM EATERY NABS SPOT ON PETA’S LIST OF THE UK’S BEST VEGAN FISH AND CHIPS

The Peacock Serves Up a Top-Notch Plant-Based Twist on Classic Chippy Fare

Nottingham – Across the UK, diners can find vegan food just about anywhere, from the corner shop to the chicest restaurants – and that goes for fish-free “fish” and chips, too. That’s why PETA set out to identify the UK’s Best Vegan Fish and Chips, and Nottingham’s The Peacock has earned a plaice on the list.

The Peacock’s 100 per cent plant-based fish and chips, served with mushy peas, is one of the most popular choices on its menu.

“With the demand for plant-based food higher than ever, vegan fish and chips is a smart addition to any restaurant menu”, says PETA Vegan Corporate Projects Manager Dawn Carr. “PETA is calling on caring people everywhere to let fish live in peace and to enjoy some delicious, hearty ‘tofish’ instead.”

PETA – whose motto reads, in part, that “animals are not ours to eat” – notes that plant-based dining spares fish the immense pain of being impaled, netted, and gutted. Vegans are also less prone to suffering from cancer, obesity, and diabetes than meat-eaters are and have a lower carbon footprint. These are just some of the reasons why more and more British people are enjoying vegan foods and why the number of requests for PETA’s free vegan starter kit increases every year.

Other eateries winning a mention on PETA’s list are located in Birmingham, Edinburgh, London, and elsewhere in the UK.
