Good fish and chips are sooooo hard to find in London.
I was pleasantly surprised with the fish I got from Fishers. It was well cooked, and with the correct application of salt and vinegar, it was totally scrummable. nom nom nom.
The chips were a little overcooked, just on the wrong side of crispy, but they were still enjoyable, especially since there wasn't a drop of errant oil in sight. Personally, I like my chip shop chips to be big and fat and a little on the mushy side.
The cost of dining in the no-frills dining room is more expensive than ordering a take-away. But at £9.50, a big plate of cod and chips isn't so bad, actually. Points were detracted for the non-updated menu that promised gherkins and pickled onions with the plate of food, because these things never arrived.
And, I don't mean to be overly picky or anything, but that ketchup aint no Heinz.
The cold After Eight that came with our bill made up for it, though. Mmm... minty.
By London standards, the fish at this place is outstanding. It definitely wasn't the best fish and chips I've ever had, but I have to judge it by its London competitors rather than anything else. Other aspects of the food and dining experience came up short, hence the four stars. But I would still certainly return.
