It was a blustery sort of day in Greenwich, the kind where the sun is bright enough to tempt you…read moreoutdoors but the wind reminds you it's a long way til summer yet. Cravings for fish+chips struck so we did the obvious and yelp-apped our way to this place. It hit the spot just right - I had a medium cod and chips served 'open' to take away, so essentially a cone of chips wrapped in paper with the fish ungainly balanced on top. I liked the batter - light and crispy so you could really appreciate the fish without just getting mouthfuls of fried batter. The chips also nicely spanned the texture spectrum - a good mix of squishy soft ones with yummy crispy bits too. I liked that you could add your own salt and other condiments to your taste rather than them going crazy on it. The guys behind the counter were really friendly and it was nice to share a smile and brief chat too. Though from the looks on their faces I think I may have looked a little precarious with my cone! My date then had the treat of watching me eat the decent-sized fish whilst walking (not the most graceful thing I did in front of him that day...eek). With all the pretty places nearby I'd defo recommend taking out rather than eating in - we headed to the Cutty Sark and then strolled towards the river, taking a pit stop on a bench to concentrate on eating. It was a good value warming treat in the windy weather and the portion size was so generous I had trouble finishing it. Not that I needed to worry - my date managed to eat a large and still help me out!

On a dreary cold day, we stumbled in and I ordered the Haddock & chips...nothing like Fried…read moregoodness to brighten the day! Fish was cooked well, no excess grease drippings (same goes for the chips). One downside, the dish was served with the crappy pre-packaged Heinz Tartar Sauce. If they're going to serve sauce, why not with one that is as good quality as the fish? Oh well, I stuck with the vinegar & lemon. Stellar!

Was warned London only has potatoes to offer, this pub place proved that was so wrong. Food was…read moresurprisingly good! Felt like still in New York. Lol. My favorite is the wings n sea bass in prawn butter! One of "nice things" is London does not accept tips:)))). The reason subway is 3times more expensive than in New York???

We didn't really venture too far from London proper during our recent trip to the city, but decided…read moreit was worth the time to visit The Greenwich Union for a Sunday roast. The establishment has a nice mixture of cozy and airy, which was perfect for a lazy(ish) Sunday. I hate to use this word, but I'll use it anyway (because I can't think of a better descriptor): the service here is "super" friendly, and very knowledgeable, particularly regarding the ales on tap. The barkeep gave us a few sample pours without waiting for us to ask, which we greatly appreciated. Because of that, we were more than happy with the pints we ordered. Moving on to the food: the roasts were delicious, in particular the pork loin, which was moist and flavorful. I enjoyed my roast beef as well. The Yorkshire pudding was wonderful and I might have been just as happy eating that alone for my meal, to be honest. The pub is in walking distance of the touristy areas of Greenwich, so it's easy enough to put some good food in your belly and continue on to your sightseeing, afterward.
