“At the end of the day we do them to bring a little bit of joy and happiness to our customers, who I can honestly say are brilliant and very understanding when prices have gone up.

Antoni’s brother Theo runs the Jolly Fryer, 11 miles away in Kirkby-in-Ashfield, which serves the same menu.

He said: “It’s a genuine taste sensation.”
