Smashed Bros

You're heading down Pegler Way towards the station when you spot Smashed Bros, and honestly, it's the kind of spot that makes you wonder why you haven't been in sooner. This isn't your standard chippy — they've built their whole thing around creative takes on mashed potato, which sounds niche until you taste what they're doing. The vibe is stripped-back and unpretentious, the kind of place where locals genuinely queue up, and the ratings speak for themselves. Whether you're grabbing something quick on your way home or settling in properly, there's a real energy to it.
