Yes, local and seasonal have become almost ubiquitous anywhere smarter than Starbucks (only because we can't grow coffee though, I suspect), but here the food is beautifully presented and tasty which is just as important to make it work. We went for a mid-week dinner which is an absolute bargain at £25 for 3 courses. My boyfriend ordered a la carte, essentially to be able to get cheese at the end. Everything was lovely - fantastic gnocchi in particular (though these may have stuck in my mind since my own pursuit of creating the perfect gnocchi has hit a brick wall and I can't get past just ok), with fresh wild mushrooms and some salady stuff. I think I had pork belly because it came with black pudding - my usual achilles heel for ordering - and it was a good not-too-heavy portion. Service was fast but not rushed, etc. etc. The spiral staircase to the toilets can be daunting after 2 glasses of wine. I do wish they'd make more of the bar though, it would be a lovely place to have a quiet drink methinks.

I personally don't like Doner Kebab's but my boyfriend does, according to him this place does them very well! Normally I go for Chicken Kebab's and I must say, that this is something they are not good at at Tony's. They taste nice, but the chicken still has it's skin left on them, which goes all slobby and it is not nice when you get this in your mouth. Also, their sauces are not very tasty either, taste kind of cheap. Now back to the good stuff! The chips are massive and chunky, yum! The burgers are good and so are the red sausages. The Cod is amazing too! One of the best Fish'n'Chips I have ever had! Since I am writing about it now I think I'll have to pop over, made myself hungry!

Reason: It looked absolutely terrible and I was scared I'd get out there with a bad disease.

I have only tried the chips so far and they were pretty standard and you get a loooooot of chips for 2 pounds! I'll come back for more as they also have burgers, kebabs, sausages and obviously fiiiiiiish!!! :D

So for my last dinner In London, having not eaten any "English" food since arriving 3 days ago, I…read morewent for the obligatory fish and chips (we don't get this in Houston). One of my colleagues told me of a place close by our old office that was good, and I guess it was here since it is the only place close to Frying Pan Alley. When I arrived I saw that it was a "chippy" and smiled since I had never been in one before. I had an hour till closing so did not dawdle. Went whole hog for the large cod and chips with a side of mushy peas - gotta have at least one veg. For dessert I had the Spotted Dick with Custard. Even though they were fairly close to closing the food was hot, fresh and delicious. Good to see real chips and malt vinegar. Again, they don't use vinegar in the US. Ambience was rustic and nothing fancy and also nothing pretentious. Server was a friendly fellow so service was great. Not the cheapest at £29 but worth it, especially since I was eating cheaply for the past 3 suppers. Well recommended - two thumbs up.

Very simple, very dingy takeout spot. I got takeaway today and ordered the 2 piece chicken with…read morechips for a mere $5 which was a bargain considering the massive portion size. They were nice enough but didn't really have an easy to ready menu. The chips were decent although I asked for vinegar and they didn't taste much like anything. The chicken was phenomenal - very flavorful and juicy. I picked it off the bone it was so good. It was a very big portion of food for five quid and I would absolutely recommend it for a cheap lunch but I'm not sure if it's the best food in the area. Would go back.

It's a welcome relief from the various terrible kebab and chicken shops that otherwise swamp this part of London, this place sells chips not fries and reminds you, if only briefly, of walks along the sea-front, boater hats and donkey rides, in short it injects a good healthy dose of Britishness right into your arteries.
