Our Story

Brothers Cem and Cihan Oktem, founders of Oktem Kitchens, are no strangers to the craft of creating great food. Jingling Lane is their fourth fish and chip shop, following the success of their family-run establishments in Bolton-le-Sands, Morecambe, and Ulverston. With each new location, the brothers bring their passion for quality ingredients, expert preparation, and exceptional service.

Fish and chips have been part of the Oktem family tradition for years, blending a love of classic British cuisine with a deep commitment to innovation and excellence. Every dish we serve at Jingling Lane is a reflection of this legacy. From our hand-battered fish, prepared daily for maximum freshness, to our golden, fluffy chips made from the finest locally sourced potatoes, we pour care and attention into every step.

Our venues have become staples in the communities we serve, and Jingling Lane is no different. Nestled in the charming streets of Kirkby Lonsdale, our latest venture aims to bring people together over the simple joy of delicious food. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, we’re here to welcome you with a smile and a plate of something truly special.

At Jingling Lane Fish & Chips, every bite tells a story — one of family, tradition, and a shared love for Britain’s most iconic meal.
