Vinegar, salt and ketchup were also available and plentiful for dipping or dredging to your heart's content. We tried the cod/haddock and the hake, which was so light and delicate. The lobster roll was sadly over-dressed and lacking in lobster meat - save your stomach space for the fish. Decent beer and wine selections are available to wash down the fried feast.

There is a very long line so strongly recommend reservations which we had thankfully. We were seated pretty quickly and service throughout was good. We ordered two different types of fishes (one simply being lighter than the other). They were both good though wow the portions were bigger than expected. The fries/chips were pretty good as well. It's a cute spot with good amount of seating with outdoor seating as well. Cute ambiance all in all - though definitely a very busy spot.

Heard that this was a pretty good fish & chips place so was excited to try this place out. You…read moreorder at the bar first and then you take a seat at the tables. Ordered the Fish & Chips Meal which included fish, chips, tartare sauce, and drinks and thought it was pretty good. I was surprised that they still kept the skin of the fish when they fried it but it didn't make that big of a difference to the taste. I thought the fish was extremely tender and very flaky which is how I like it. I also really appreciated the tartare sauce had some vegetable shreds inside which was a good addition to the fish texture. The chips were okay but I did appreciate how much they give. Overall, very good fish and & chips. The only thing I would say is that I wish they didn't include a drink in the meal deal and swapped it out for the traditional mushed peas.

I've visited The Champion a few times, and feel comfortable reviewing it. Located on a corner where…read moreBayswater road transmogrifies into Notting Hill Gate, it is the sort of classic pub that Britain is famous for (though they are closing at a rate of 10,000/year, so who knows how long that shall be the case). It has classic dark wood ambience inside, and a small patio out the back of the basement (apparently Queen's lead singer used to be a regular, so this is named the Mercury Bar) Food is ok. Maybe 1 cut below top-tier pub food. Scotch egg was a tad runny, and served with Oxford sauce that is more sour and less good than the HP Brown Sauce it replaces. Lamb Sunday Roast was a bit tough, and came with a paltry 4 roast potato segments of diminutive size. Service is excellent; consistently friendly and helpful. They are eager to fix things when matters go awry. The pub was recently closed for renovations, which seems mainly to have been making a new, larger Gents in the basement, and turning the old Gents' into a 2nd Ladies' room on the staircase. Fellow patrons seem to come more for drinks than food. I like this place, and I'll be back.

We ordered the cod fish and chips as well as an order of onion rings. The onions were battered in a flaky crust and the onions themselves were quite sweet. Overall an incredible onion ring given the cost, freshness, and quantity you receive. Now, onto the fish. The cod was incredibly flaky and the crust enhanced the flavor really well. The chips were alright, not my favorite, but the cod was the real star of the show. Overall, I was able to have the British fish and chips experience and have it well. If you are looking for a great place to eat that's not too far from the main city, look no further than here!

My family and I were in Notting Hill after visiting The Churchill Arms. We were expecting that they…read morehad fish and chips, but they only had Thai food. We specifically came to try fish and chips, so we were lucky that The Mall Tavern was nearby. Each of us ordered fish and chips, and all of our plates were left nearly empty. My goodness, I have never had better fish and chips than here at The Mall Tavern. The fish was crispy, and the chips were perfectly salted to taste. I appreciate that chips in England are more like potato wedges than classic American french fries. Way less fried and way less salty, so you can enjoy the actual taste of the potatoes! I also ordered a side of Mac and cheese that we all shared. I don't know what kind of cheese(s) was used, but it was the perfect starter to our meal. For dessert, we had the sticky toffee pudding for the first time. It was hard not to order another one!! We came in for late lunch, so the restaurant was empty. I assume they are much busier at lunch and dinner time. I also enjoyed the selection of beer while we waited for our food to come out. Next time I'm in London, I'm returning here immediately.

This place doesn't technically have it, but their braised beef & ale shortcrust pie comes very close, and it's one of their specialties. Creamed potato, greens, rich gravy... comfort food done right. £19.50 and honestly worth it, especially on a cold, wet day. The ambiance really welcomed me in: warm, cozy interior with the fireplace going and a charming vintage Christmas aesthetic. Add in friendly people and genuinely warm service. Exactly the kind of pub you hope to stumble into on a rainy London morning. I'm hyped.

We were recommended to visit this place from someone who works in London frequently. We're so glad…read morethat we were able to stop by. It was the last dinner we had during our most recent trip to London, two weeks ago! It was a great way to end the trip We placed a reservation for dinner and ate there before seeing play that night. We would have stayed longer if the play wasn't starting soon after. The place has a great ambience. We quickly noticed how Ffiona treats her guest with care and kindness upon arrival. I let Ffiona know about not having dairy in my meals and she was clear on what could be adapted to not have dairy and which items to avoid completely. We truly enjoyed everything we ate, and had to be careful not to stuff ourselves. We had the sheppards pie, fish and chips, aubergine fritters, a tasty salad with some vegan cheese and a couple of desserts. They some great drink options too! We had a mocktail. Ffiona communicated that there was optional service charge that could be removed upon request before we even presented our card for payment. We did not have it removed due to the great service we recieved. Next time we are in London, we will surely make a visit here.
