PORTLANDS Fish and Chips is proudly celebrating its 2nd year of giving back on Christmas Day, as owner Mubinul Hoque and his dedicated team will once again open their doors on:- 25 December 2025, offering a:- ‘free, hearty Christmas Day’ meal to those who need it most.

As with our 2024 event, Portlands aims to support:- NHS staff, carers, emergency, and key workers, older individuals, vulnerable members of the community, and anyone who may be spending Christmas alone.

Mubinul said:- “This Christmas, our mission remains the same; to bring people together. As Muslims, we do not celebrate Christmas, but we see this as a meaningful opportunity to support our neighbours and ensure no one feels forgotten. The community has embraced us since day one, and this is our way of giving back.”



Since taking ownership in February 2023, Mubinul Hoque has revitalised Portlands with a refreshed menu, improved sustainability efforts, and a community 1st ethos. Giving back remains at the heart of the business, reflected in their continued charitable donations to local causes including the sponsorship of Nicosia Juniors U7 football team.

Mubinul told us that:- “This small gesture can make a huge difference to those in our community. Whether Christmas holds deep meaning for you or it is just another day, everyone is welcome at Portlands. If we can brighten someone’s day or ease their loneliness, that is what truly matters.”

Visitors can expect chippy favourites including:- chunky cod fish fingers, fish and chip barms, and free tea and coffee, all offered completely free of charge from Portlands, whose continued dedication to quality and community has once again been recognised with the:- ‘Good Food Award for 2025/26,’ highlighting the team’s commitment to excellence and compassion.

Join Mubinul and the Portlands team this Christmas Day, from:- 11 am to 5 pm, for a warm meal, a hot drink, and the chance to share the day with others. Everyone is welcome.

The venue is located on Sefton Street, Liverpool (L85SN)
