NI takeaways battle for top title in Just Eat Awards

The Northern Ireland finalists for this year's Just Eat Restaurant Awards have been announced.

Formerly the British Takeaway Awards, the newly named accolades champion Britain’s favourite food spots and the people that make them a success.

Celebrating the best locally-loved restaurants in the country, from those who are going above and beyond in helping their local communities, to those advancing their sustainability efforts, the Awards give hard-working people their moment to shine on a national stage.

Competing for ‘Best Takeaway in Northern Ireland’ are:

  • Eathakka - This Belfast eatery serves up authentic Hakka Chinese cuisine and, in an effort to help younger generations develop workplace skills, employees mostly students.
  • Pizza Guyz - A vibrant family run pizza restaurant embedded in its local community. Driven to make a positive environmental impact. Pizza Guyz works with the Woodland Trust to plant 1000 trees each year to offset their carbon footprint.
  • Browns Fish & Chips Belfast Ltd - This local restaurant has been a part of its community for over 10 years, and makes efforts to have a positive impact. They provide hot meals to the homeless on a weekly basis. Offer meals to pensioners in the local area amid cost of living crisis.
  • The Mill Café and Bagel Bar - Opened back impulsively in 2020. Determined to give back to the community that supported them, they now sponsor a local football team, provide kits for their local YMCA and fundraise for a local mental health charity, PIPS.

Victoria Gold, UK & IE Marketing Director, said: “This year, we’re excited to be inviting more restaurants to get involved in our highly coveted Just Eat Restaurant Awards, so that food lovers across the country can support their favourites. While the name has changed and we’ve refreshed our look to a joyful orange, our mission remains the same. We’re still here to recognise the hardworking individuals behind Britain’s best food spots and champion passion, dedication and above all, unforgettable food.”

All national and regional winners will be revealed at a star-studded ceremony taking place at the 5 star The Londoner Hotel in Leicester Square on February 21, 2023.
