ABOUT US
Mother Kelly’s
Mother Kelly’s brand is something we are very proud of as a family. Trevor, the owner, has been working in fish and chip shops since he was just 13 years old. We won’t say exactly how many years that is,. But let’s just say there is nothing he doesn’t know about the industry. Working for his father at his fish and chip shop he learned from the best. Therefore, not too long after he left school, he was offered the manager’s job and then became an area manager. It was through this chain of events he met his first business partner and eventually the Mother Kelly’s brand was born.
Mother Kelly’s History
Trevor already co-owned two chip shops in Purbrook and Denmead. But when he bought the restaurant in Paulsgrove he wanted a new brand. Originally, the restaurant was to be called Kelly’s Fish and Chips. However, someone misheard the name and thought it was Mother Kelly’s. We loved the name, its link to the song and the memories it brought to people that it just stuck. The Paulsgrove restaurant opened in 1987 and over the next 30 years, we enjoyed a fantastic reputation. Consequently, becoming Mother Kelly’s famous fish and chips.
