Harden's survey result
Summary
“Old established fish ’n’ chip restaurant” in the backstreets near Victoria station, whose long menu includes “a variety of great fish and seafood” (oysters, scallops, lobster, sea bream on the bone) alongside more obvious chippy classics. “Popular with regular locals”, the interior is fine but not why it’s survived since 1965.
Summary
“Where every visitor to this country might usefully try our traditional national dish” – this 60-year-old Pimlico veteran a short stroll from Victoria station serves “excellent fish, good chips and mushy peas”, and service is “pleasant” too. Not compulsory, but you can stray beyond cod ’n’ chips if you want to: be it with fritto misto, lobster thermidor, sea bass cooked on the bone…
Summary
This “absolutely reliable” chippie has done sterling service in Pimlico for 59 years, with a recent refurb enabling it to live up to its name. “Dishes range from excellent fish ’n’ chips to more complex and flavourful fare” – and it’s “reasonably priced”.
Summary
“Great fish” and “friendly staff” attract a steady crowd of regulars to this veteran Pimlico fish specialist, run by the same family since 1961. It’s been modernised in relatively recent times, and serves classic fish ’n’ chips alongside more elevated seafood options, including octopus, lobster and Dover sole meunière.
