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.

    • A lot to agree with here - don’t get me started on Irish people complaining about immigration! - but that final paragraph is once again a cop out  there’s a lot of extreme right wing money stirring up the division that people are feeling - but there is zero excuse for handing power to these people. We live in a democracy and if we have enough people willing to give it up then judging those people foolish enough to do so is not only something that will happen, it is something that the rest of us should be morally compelled to do  if someone wouldn’t “normally” vote for a racist party yet somehow will do so because they hear someone like me saying that would be bad, then you better believe I’m judging them
    • We can't use our kitchen for a while and so looking for an air fryer to plug the gap. Please let me know if you have a good one in working order.  07702 305 310 Thanks
    • The current wave of xenophobia is due to powerful/influential people stirring up hatred.  It;'s what happened in the past, think 1930s Germany.  It seems to be even easier now as so many get their information from social media, whether it is right or wrong.  The media seeking so called balance will bring some nutter on, they don't then bring a nutter on to counteract that. They now seem to turn to Reform at the first opportunity. So your life is 'shite', let;s blame someone else.  Whilst sounding a bit like a Tory, taking some ownership/personal responsibility would be a start.  There are some situations where that may be more challenging, in deindustrialised 'left behind' wasteland we can't all get on our bikes and find work.  But I loathe how it is now popular to blame those of us from relatively modest backgrounds, like me, who did see education and knowledge as a way to self improve. Now we are seen by some as smug liberals......  
    • Kwik Fit buggered up an A/C leak diagnosis for me (saying there wasn't one, when there was) and sold a regas. The vehicle had to be taken to an A/C specialist for condensor replacement and a further regas. Not impressed.
