About this deal

Located in the building formerly occupied by the LW plant shop, Calla opened its doors to the public two weeks ago, serving alcoholic drinks in a charming, upmarket setting. The team at Calla have also partnered with local food business Sando to provide freshly-baked sausage rolls and American-style sandwiches for hungry customers to enjoy alongside a tipple. Chip Spice was created in 1979 by Ron and Brenda Wilson, and was registered as a limited company in 1993. It is now run by their son, Edward Wilson, who runs American Chip Spice and Wilson Seasonings. He explained why Chip Spice continues to get involved in the Hull community – despite its relocation.

Owned by Lee Gleeson and Wayne Graves, the same pairing who own the nearby Nanouk on Lowgate, it is hoped that Calla will provide a playful but refined experience for those drinking in Whitefriargate. Its botanical theme, paired with a fresh coat of olive paint, has made the building look striking from the surrounding street. We put a shout-out in the Hull Traffic and Travel Facebook group to find out what people who live in the city think are the most important things to know. We are therefore delighted to partner with the team at American Chip Spice, and give them a platform to tell the wider world about the joys of adding Chip Spice to their fries.” Tomato ketchup, mushy peas, gravy and curry sauce all reigned supreme in different parts of the country and it was one of them which our patch chose as its number one accompaniment - not chip spice. While that might not be entirely true, the polling and data analytics giants YouGov have waded in on the debate in a bid to settle the argument once and for all.To avoid confusion, the options did not take into account salt and vinegar which would have otherwise dominated proceedings. Edward Wilson, co-founder of Wilson’s Seasonings, said: “Naturally we are delighted that more people will be able to buy it on the shelves at Asda stores across Yorkshire and beyond – who knows, next stop the rest of the UK.” In addition to the sponsorship of the Robins, Chip Spice has announced its support for Community teams in the area too, getting involved with East Hull Rangers (a grassroots football team who play in the Sunday Football League) and Humber Warhawks (a British American-football team with players from across Humberside). It has also sponsored Hull Marathon for several years, including its return in 2022 after a hiatus caused by the pandemic. However, of all the counties ranked, Hull and the East Riding did still have the highest percentage of people who would plump for chip spice - 36 per cent.

Everyone seems to love chip spice, added Edward. It's become as iconic to Hull as cream phone boxes and The Bee Lady, which is lovely and very rewarding. You can even get T-shirts of it and find it in Hull-themed hampers. It's one of the most controversial topics that provides the basis for debate across the land - just which topping do you have on your chips?

Hull KR is delighted to announce a new partnership for the 2023 season with the iconic and local favourite brand, American Chip Spice. Chip spice is just our area's third favourite topping for a chippy tea with tomato ketchup winning the race to be crowned the region's favourite. Mushy peas came in second place. Whilst the company's operations are now based in Hertfordshire, Edward and his team frequently visit his old stomping grounds to add a bit of spice to all kinds of events, from regular farmers' markets, to the city centre's Yum Food Festival and Hull University Union's WelcomeFest.

Rod and Brenda Wilson started their business in 1979, selling blends of herbs and spices to local butchers and food service industries in Hull. Inspired by the flavours they’d experienced on a trip to the USA. However, as you would expect, the answers supplied by the sample of nearly 30,000 people in England varied depending on where they live. New stats show Hull's unbreakable bond with the paprika, tomato and salt-flavoured tubs of joy is not as solid as once thought. Work is also underway renovating the upstairs into a function room that can be booked out for events, while the rooftop will be turned into a 60-person capacity terrace. Not due to open until April next year, the rooftop terrace should prove to be one of the hottest spots in Hull during the summer, offering impressive views of the Old Town.

Here's some of the suggestions members of the Traffic and Travel group came up with along with some suggestions we made ourselves.

My parent’s creation became such a huge hit in Hull, our company really wouldn’t be where it is today without it. Over the years, Chip Spice has become iconic in this city, just like cream telephone boxes or patties. It’s not just a seasoning anymore. The increase is being put down to Hull’s status as City of Culture . Here, it even outsold Heinz Tomato Ketchup and Nando’s Peri Peri Salt Sprinkles.

Hull KR Chief Executive Paul Lakin is excited to add the local delicacy to our growing portfolio of partners: ‘Chip Spice has become synonymous with our city and local culture, one of the first questions our overseas stars get asked when they move to the area is, have you tried Chip Spice yet?
