G Onesti and Son

G Onesti and Son at Merry Street is part of the multi-outlet Onesti family operation that has long defined Motherwell's chip shop trade. This Merry Street branch focuses on pizza and fast food alongside the standard chip shop range. The Onesti name has been synonymous with Italian-heritage chippies in Motherwell for generations — a tradition common across Lanarkshire since early twentieth-century Italian settlement in the steel towns. Individual branch quality varies by visit, but the family's presence across multiple sites on Merry Street and Brandon Street reflects enduring local demand.
