Ordering Strategy
Focus on the classic fried fillets (cod or haddock) and the unique cheese fritters. The restaurant is BYOB, so bringing a bottle of wine is a smart move to elevate the casual experience.
What to order
Haddock and chips
Regarded as 'an altogether better affair' than the starters, with crisp batter and fish that is cooked through nicely without skin.
Large cod
The standard-bearer for size, though recent reviews suggest the quality can be inconsistent, with some describing it as 'dry' or 'watery.'
Feta fritters
A polarizing but legendary side; while some call it a 'must order,' others find the thick chunks of cheese 'so strong they were enough to make a grown man wince.'

Good to know
One of London's oldest chippies, it operates a popular BYOB policy (often with no corkage, check locally). It can feel like a 'tourist-fest' during peak hours.
