The meal – a portion of special ‘orange crisps’ and a mini fillet – would normally cost £5.70.
Nicola Jones, 55, from Wednesfield, who was first in the queue at 11.30am, said: “They were delicious.”
“I think it’s only us in the Midlands that make the orange crisps. They have this unique coating on them.
“The only reason I went to Dr. Vinegar ended up because my son has the store next door. They’ve been trading for a few weeks now. For me it was word of mouth.
“We arrived around 11 a.m., after which we got out for a while around 10:30 p.m. Then the masses came. I was the first to come.
“About fifty to sixty people came straight away, and then they just kept coming. It was constant. I was quite happy to be in the front. I will now be a regular customer.
“I thought they were excellent. For the price they asked, they were fantastic. The fries were good, nice thick pieces of cod. It was all fresh.
“The level was excellent. I wouldn’t expect anything else.
“Usually a cone costs £2.20. I think a fish and chips meal usually costs around £6 or £7 these days.”
And Matt Nichol, 29, from Willenhall, added: “I queued for an hour but it was well worth it.”
