    I booked a table prior to a concert at the Barbican, which this is very close too. Sadly, our booking coincided with a party of 51 arriving prior to our arrival. As a result our food took 25 minutes to arrive after ordering it! No complaints with the fish and chips, excellent but the delay took a shine off our visit.

    We decided to come here as two families meeting up for dinner before going to the theatre. Fish and chips all round and it was awesome. We were so well looked after by Bobbi. Thanks so much for a great time. We’ll be back when next in the neighbourhood. Great food for all the family.

    Thoroughly enjoyed our visit and the food was really nice, traditional British fish and chips. The only problem was that there was too much of it and we couldn't finish it. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.
