Fish and chips in ED

Recommended Posts

Maybe Emily's guy needs a lesson in 'twice cooking' his chips and selecting the correct potato variety? There's definitely a gap in the local crispy chip market. TBH when it comes to fish and chips nobody really gives a stuff about the fish. It's all about the chips.

A little bit out of ED but well worth the trip. Oceans Fish Bar at 1 Westmoreland Road, just of Walworth Road and a door or two away from Arment's Pie and Mash. Run by two young Cypriot boys who used to work for that other excellent place in Archway Nth London


By far the lightest thinest crispest batter anywhere, super fresh fish and good chips too. Mind I only eat about 1/2 a dozen along with a good helping of mushy pease. They cook Haddock to order but Cod is always on the go


It's very clean and fresh too, I make the drive from Sydenham to eat there


That place on Camberwell Church street is rank, maybe it's the miserable face and grubbiness that does it. Never again......NEVER

I lived down South for many years before moving to London and one thing you could buy in every chip shop was pea fritters. Being vegetarian, I ate these on a regular basis instead of fish. Most people had them as an accompaniment to their fish & chips.


When I moved here I asked for them in a local chippy & they didn't know what I was talking about.


'Mushy peas?' they asked. 'No' I said 'pea fritters which are mushy peas deep fried in batter'


I was told by one shop that I'd be lucky to find them anywhere in London. So if anyone knows of the nearest place I could get some, I'd be very grateful. They are so nice!

On the outskirts of ED. The Allanwater Cafe, Bridge of Allan, Stirling!. Superb if you are ever passing. Black pudding supper is a thing of rare beauty. Man I could kill for one of them right now...


Are there no Scottish chippies in London? Would be a regualr for me if there was. A completly different beast to the chippies down here.

OMG. Just looked at their menu & looks like you are right.


I've never even been there before, just walk past most days & had a brief look at their main courses, but never noticed their sides.


They have loads of good reviews and are always busy.


Thank-you for letting me know.

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
