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.

    • Hi all, Wondering if anyone else in/around SE22 is also having the unfortunate luck of having Evri parcels delivered by a very rude individual? Whenever we have parcels delivered, our front gate is being slammed open and closed, ring doorbell is harshly banged (not pressed) followed by simultaneously banging on the door knocker and slamming the letter box multiple times. Someone is normally home by the time they come in the evening and never has to wait long for an answer. If we’re not home, we speak to them on the doorbell so we do find the actions of this individual unreasonable and rude.  We have tried a couple of times politely asking that they not do this but they are very dismissive and gives a passive-aggressive “have a nice day” reply.  Has anyone been able to contact Evri and successfully had any issues similar to this resolved? We have enough evidence through our doorbell footage but we are lost with what else we can do. We’ve tried asking politely but don’t want our gate or door damaged by someone who simply doesn’t care and lacks basic manners.    If anyone else is having this issue or has any advice on how we can report this, it would be much appreciated. After another dismissive reply to my concern this afternoon, I will be calling Evri tomorrow to raise a complaint. I have lost my patience with them 
    • Corbyn was unelectable - he got trashed by Boris who was a buffoon. It was a good job too because I would have hated to see Corbyn and his rag-tag bunch of far-left university politics backbenchers try to lead the country through Covid.  It is completely understandable why Starmer and the Labour Party want to purge Momentum from within their ranks and Cllr McAsh has fallen victim of that.
