A fish and chip shop that was first established more than 40 years ago has reopened under new management. 

The Catch in King's Lynn, previously home to the Sugar Shack, has reopened as a chip shop. 

Jo Tarrington-Hunt and Becky Evans launched the business on October 20 despite challenges posed by extreme weather conditions during Storm Babet.

Ms Tarrington-Hunt said: "The building was a chip shop for a long time, we're taking it back to what it was originally.

"This is what it's meant to be.

"We're massive foodies and we know how important every stage of making fish and chips is."

The couple previously ran a chip shop on the seafront in Skegness and have worked in the restaurant industry for much of their lives.

The Catch seats 48 people and there are plans to expand the menu over the next year to include roast dinners and steaks. 

Ms Evans added: "My dream for the shop is for it to be a community hub.

"Everyone is welcome."

The Catch is serving Yorkshire fishcakes and spicy southern fried chicken burgers as well as traditional fish and chips.
