Best old skool fish and chips in West London! Always fresh and tasty and never any taste of old oil being used.

Food is excellent, so is the service and good portions as well. Definitely the best fish and chip shop in the area.

Great experience on a Thursday night. Had a really exhausting day at the site and it was a much needed meal with the family. The boys loved talking to the staff and enjoyed their scampi and mine and the wife’s cod and chips was truly scrumptious. Staff absolutely lovely and would absolutely recommend. The young lad behind the counter provided one of a kind service
