About this listen

In this episode, Gavin takes a deep dive with Alan Edwards into the story of Vacara’s Chip Shop, one of Newport’s longest-standing gems, proudly serving the community for over 135 years.


But this one isn’t just about fish and chips. Alan shares the history of Newport itself , how the city has changed, how businesses have come and gone, and how Vacara’s has stood strong through it all. From the hustle of the old high streets to the new faces shaping the city today, this is a conversation about tradition, resilience, and the flavour of Newport’s past and present.


So grab your salt and vinegar, listen in, and celebrate not only a legendary chip shop but the rich, ever-changing landscape of Newport.
