1921 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Hi Can anyone recommend a fish and chip shop that is a good (or almost) as good as the Seacow on Lordship Lane was. NO1 is away so taking NO2 son out and fish and chips are his favourite but so far we are yet to find an alternative!Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strawbs Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 There is a fish and chips place called Rosie's on east dulwich road, chips are nice but I don't eat fish so can't comment on that part! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DulwichFox Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 The newly refurbished Semas is excellent. Semas is very much back on track and is very good value for money 327 Underhill Road East Dulwich SE22 9EA 020 8299 2595 Further afield. Codfellas is excellent Address: 125 Bellenden Road, London SE15 4QY Phone: 020 7657 5287 Sit in available and licenced. Both these places far better than Seacow ever was.

peckman Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 By far the best is brockley rock . Over the train tracks but amazing . Well amazing as fish and chips can get . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Rosie's and Codfellas both decent. Fish probably not as good as Seacow, but chips are better (and let's face it, the chips are just as important) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1921 Posted June 15, 2017 Author Share Posted June 15, 2017 Thank you, we will try Codfellas as it does GF batter. I went a long time ago and collected a takeaway and it wasn't that great when we got home. Most probably because F & C should be scoffed immediately.

Siduhe Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 +1 for Semas. Chips are much better than they were. It's not fancy but decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mancity68 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Just spotted the fish and chip shop in Camberwell has been done up and reopened. Now called Fladdas. Looked busy as I came past tonight, but not tried myself yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seabag Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 I liked the SC, it made Fish & Chips fun with the kids. But things changed and it felt a bit 'done' by the time they vacated, sadly. And those stiff chips we're not great in the end.I liked that you could eat good fish and have a glass of wine. They had a good menu ideas in the begining and all the other places, nice enough as they are, feel like glorified cafe's.Someone's missing a trick with a good F&C restaurant locally.

flocker spotter Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 The best in the area IMHO, is the herne hill fish bar, up from HH station towards Dkk hill. We switched from Seacow when it started to go rapidly downhill and have not looked back. Do not order a large F&C though unless you are a trencherman- they have huge portions. Give it a go.

Brulysses Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Codfellas is my local and very good it is too, they just had a refurb and have a nice little seated area, perfect! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elphinstone's Army Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 One hour ago, I bought fish and chips from Semas - never again. We now both have a foul taste in our mouths : The chips were disgusting. Most of it was binned. The dog, offered this greasy package, sniffed it and walked away. We have cut up fruit, pineapple etc as a form of antidote, de-greaser, gag suppressant. We miss the Seacow - seared tuna and salad and a glass of chilled white wine. It was noisy but good on a Friday evening, early. The fish was from Moxons? with a good selection, cooked there and then, fresh and delicious. Back to Codfellas.

Mrs D Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 I quite like the fish and chip from the place down by the old harvester / south circular. Think it's called two brothers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirac Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Can vouch for Cod Fellas being decent, and always a friendly service.For ultra crispy batter and excellent chips Sea Master is absolutely amazing. I would travel a long way to go to that fish shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbboy Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Fish and chips on a Monday, never a good idea, think how long they've had the fish, unless it was frozen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seabag Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 I go on an ocassional pilgrimage to Walworth, to the Dolphin Fish bar. I eat Cod wth thin fresh crispy batter, with mushy peas and about a half dozen chips (I can't/won't eat too many chips). A pickled gerkin and some pepper on there makes the journey pretty well perfect.The interior isn't anything other than white and a rather fetching mosaic of Sponge Bob. BUT, they know how to prepare and cook fresh fish and chips, and for that it's a worthwhile pull in on my way back from town.END Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CodFellas is Very good but a twenty minute walk for me. Semas went through a bad patch but the person responsible now works/ owns (disputeably) at Rosies. Semas is consistently good Nice Chips and HUGE portions. Crispy Batter. This was a Small Cod. it was enormous Lovely batter big flakes of white flesh..

edcam Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Looking forward to trying Fladda, the new one in Camberwell, which has replaced the Flying Fish. That will be a hard act to follow, as they were by far the best in the area and have been much missed.Not quite the weather for fish and chips right now though!
