    Halibut fish and chips
    Christina T.

    Very much a hidden gem, about a 15 min walk from the Big Ben! I don't usually like cod or fish (not a big seafood eater), so I was specifically trying to find halibut fish and chips since halibut is a better fish (not sure if thats true or not lol). This was also my first time ever trying fish and chips. We had to wait about 10 minutes for a table. The place is very small, but that's about every restaurant in London. There's a lot of tables at the back of the restaurant. I thought my fish and fries tasted so fresh and not greasy at all. I had it with vinegar and this other sauce and it was sooo tasty. Didn't really taste too fish-y in general! The workers were also very nice and kind! I would go back here!

    My tour guide suggested this fish and chips restaurant after I was done visiting Winston Churchill's war rooms, and it was totally worth going to for lunch. The piece of fish I had was spectacular, a good fry and very fresh. The fries are delicious and are thick cut and have plenty of flavor. It is all served with a smile and with a nice amount of tartar sauce, a must if you do this dish properly. It also helps to serve mushy peas or a curry sauce, but this is fine as a simple dish because it really held me up for several hours after eating it. The prices are fair too but I did not want a large portion as I wanted to ensure I would be able to eat dinner later. Get the Halibut as the name implies. It is the right fish here. Cod will work too, but at this restaurant, stick with the Halibut.

    Beef pie and chips

    Great place to get fish and chips in London. We got the namesake, the halibut, and I think it was worth it -- although we didn't try their others. Perfectly cooked fish, light and crispy breading, and good chips. Got a beef meat pie as well and it was also pretty good - good pastry. Service was lovely and kind and it's on a cute street with street vendors as well. We went around 1130 and the place was starting to fill up when we left but still plenty of space.

    We wanted to try fish and chips in London and found it on Yelp, it was close to our hotel and within walking distance. The Laughing Halibut located on a small street is a family-owned shop with very friendly service. They were extremely helpful with our menu selection. Our dishes were served promptly and tasty. The restaurant seems small but has enough tables to be comfortable. The atmosphere is friendly and joyful. We paid at the counter at the end of our meal. Recommended if you are in the area.

    The Laughing Halibut should definitely get points for the originality of their name, similar to the odd names (to us Americans) of pubs in London. It certainly is catchy and it caught my eye in my search for lunch after visiting Westminster Abbey, a short walk down Victoria St and down an alley. I wasn't going to leave London until I had some good Fish & Chips! Seating is a little tight with narrow tables, but the menu is pretty extensive with different kinds of fish. There's cod, haddock, plaice, calamari and skate, but halibut leads the list, so that's what I go with. We also shared a Mixed Platter to try some of the others in smaller portions. One of our friends wasn't keen on fish, so she got the roast chicken, which was surprisingly good. Also in the menu are meat pies, which my son has been on the hunt for. The beef pie was a personal sized pot pie stuffed with beef & gravy. We should have gotten 2-3 to share, but the fish platters were pretty big. The fried calamari rings in the mixed platter were like 4 inches across! Just be aware that what they call scampi is not like what we call scampi. They're just breaded fried shrimp. Halibut is basically a large flounder species caught in colder northern waters. The meat is tougher and doesn't flake like its smaller warm-water cousin. You just have to be careful in cooking it or it becomes overcooked rubber. How they get it to laugh, I don't know, but it must involve some secret tickling technique. Their cooking technique is great though, with a time tested batter recipe that fries up golden brown and keeps the fillet nice and moist. They must double-fry the chips because they came out cooked through and perfectly crispy. I tried the chips with the malt vinegar on the table, but I prefer good ol' ketchup. I feel they should have a mascot to go with the name of the restaurant. My wife would have bought a plushie of a cartoonish laughing flatfish.

    Wanted to try some of the famous British Fish and chips. This was highly rated. Expect a rather plain family owned eatery on a side street with simple food. The fish-chips and chicken mushroom pie was a taste of 100% British. Came twice in three days, says it all.

    Walked from Westminster Abbey to Laughing Hailbut. The place is small, but still a good amount of tables. Looks like a typical fish and chips joint. The menu has a lot of options. For fish and chips, you can pick from cod, halibut, haddock, rockfish, or skate. I opted for cod. The piece of fish is quite good size as is the amount of chips you get. Batter is crispy and not heavy. The chips are crispy and hot. Service was fast and friendly. Had a great experience! N*joy!

    English Breakfast Fish & Chips
    Adina S.

    First meal on this Europe trip was a success! The one dish I really wanted to try in London was Fish & Chips and this place had pretty solid reviews. I went with the Cod, which was flakey and delicious. My dad ordered the English Breakfast, which came with a bunch of food for under 10 euro. It's a pretty casual spot. The silverware is in a little container on the table and you seat yourself. They do bring your food to you, but you have to go up to the counter to pay at the end. I enjoyed the vibes though because it felt more authentic and less fussy. It was pretty crowded even before noon, so that's when you know it's legit!

    Order at counter or take a seat at the tables for wait staff to take your order. The place is narrow but has plenty of seating available. The fish and chips platter is good. This is our second time here it was still as good as we remember. I had the cod plate with just the cod and it was a perfect snack. Chicken wings were great too.

    Such a great find within walking distance of my hotel. I visited here many years ago and I gave them 4 stars. Given the meal I got today, I'm all in with 5 stars. Today, I was looking for a quick takeaway option to eat in my room due to jet lag. This looked to be the only chip shop in the area and I felt like I should try to eat something classically British since I'm only here for a night. I would normally take the Underground to Leicester Square for Chinese takeaway but did not feel like fighting the rush hour crowds so The Laughing Halibut it was. It is a little nondescript from the outside and looking in the window, it appears to have what all classic fry shops should. Frymen behind the counter, fried items in the glass hot case, and boiling oil vats bubbling with fish. Upon walking in, I first noticed several tables in the back to eat in, and all were occupied which was a good sign. The next thing I noticed was the engaging counter guy who helped talk me through my order. He was not rushing me and he seemed to genuinely want me to have a good meal. I was also impressed that there was not a lot of fried product sitting in the warm holding cases getting stale. They fry to order and so you know you are getting a freshly made meal. There are several types of fish you can order along with other items such as chicken, burgers, pies, etc. It was actually harder to decide because I always thought that fish and chips was made out of some nondescript, cheap, trash fish. Not here. They had Cod, Halibut, Haddock and at least a couple other choices on the menu. I know jack squat about great fish and chips so the choices were wasted on me. I went with Cod at the recommendation of the counterman. It was a great choice in the end. I took mine to go so I had them overfry it a bit as I did not want it to get steamed soggy on the walk back to the hotel. The fryman did it and it was absolutely perfect on my 10 min walk back. They double bagged it and the fries after salting them and it was perfect for taking it away. The smell coming out of the bag was pretty enticing and it was funny because the 5-star hotel I'm staying at I'm sure wants its customers to dine in at its expensive restaurant with a Michelin star trained chef. My $10 paper bag of fried fish got a lot of attention as I walked through the lobby and the people that got on the elevator with me asked me where I got it from and made immediate plans to go to the Laughing Halibut for dinner. Sometimes inexpensive and comforting is what you need. Once in the room, I unwrapped the fish and it was still perfect. Blazing hot flakiness on the inside (still too hot to handle) and perfectly crunchy and seasoned on the outside. The side cup of vinegar they gave me was the outstanding foil for the oily richness of the fish. I have had some really crap fish and chips elsewhere in the UK and in Ireland. This one was anything but. It was actually perfect in price, size, preparation and taste. Nothing but good things to say about this place. The guys running it are 2nd or 3rd generation family members of the original owner and have kept the business running even through COVID. They seemed to be very nice, chatty, helpful and eager to please. This is a total gem in this neighborhood and I am now a fan. I liked it enough on this 2nd visit that I put it on my bucket list for a repeat visit on my next trip to London. You should too.

    Pretty decent fish & Chips ! After taking a stroll around Buckingham palace & seeing the Royal guards in London this stop was a must ! (Because when your in London, you have to eat Fish & Chips!) Our waiter recommended the Rio drink which is a tropical fruit drink, which was a nice pair with the Fish & Chips. Our waiter had great customer service and had a great sense of humor. The fish (Cod) was cooked good & the batter was flaky. The Fries were decent as well, just needed extra seasoning which is provided at your table! Overall definitely a go to spot!

    Off hours on a rainy weekday was what I needed from the universe to stop into this place. Coming from a guy who does not typically order, or even like fish n chips, this place was damn good. Entering is a bit confusing because the front counter is the take-away counter. They actually have table service, but you have to go to the back. Even though I chose my own seat quickly, for some reason it took a while for anyone to take my order... but it came with an apology at least and I wasn't in a hurry. Vinegar, ketchup, mayo, tartar, S&P are on the table already. I echoed the voice and words of Anthony Bourdain in my head when I decided to order the curry sauce with my chips. I had no alcohol in me, but I just wanted to be "set right" and that the curry cauce certainly did. They have other dishes that seem of a 'higher' (nicer) caliber, which I didn't try, but it's a super casual sit-down and take-away sort of chippy.

    This was very close to our hotel. We were on the hunt for our first fish and chips in London and this was the lucky spot and within walking distance. Our food came piping hot out the grease. The fish was very crispy and I love how thick the chips are. My only gripe, which I would come to learn on from the rest of our meals throughout London, was a massive lack of seasoning, in particular, salt! It would have been utterly perfect if it were seasoned and salted right out the fryer. But alas, we still enjoyed the freshness of the fish and the overall cook of the components.

    Halibut and chips. Good but not worth the money tbh

Portion was huge, and easily shareable. Delicious!! Service: It was ok. We waited in line for a really long time (more than an hour) but we were checked on from time to time. Once we were seated and ordered, no one really checked in, but we asked if we needed something. Ambiance: Cute outdoor seating. In door seating was okay. Reservations get to go into a back room which seemed nicer. Lovely side street in a crazy busy popular area. It's a solid 4.5 stars for what it is because the food was so good. I'd return.

It was a little plain. A little tasteless. They could have thrown a few spices into the meat, just a little something. To say that we've made better at home wouldn't be far out. But still good. The calamari was cooked just right. It's what you expect out of a calamari appetizer. Was it the best you'll ever have? Not really. Worth the price? Add it to your appetizer list! The rice balls, which is arancini is, were good. Add a little salt to the top and they were, also, as you'd expect. The fish & chips were exactly as we were hoping when visiting an English Pub for fish & chips. The fish was perfectly cooked, the coating was fabulous, and of course the chips were a perfect compliment to the fish. A great fish & chips experience. The star of the show was the Sticky Toffee Pudding. What a treat! Granted I've nothing to compare it to, this was my first time having it, but whether I've had it before or not THIS was perfection. Perfect texture, the flavour was amazing, the caramel drizzle was perfectly proportioned, and the little bit of ice cream on the side was just perfect.

One of those places was The Ritz, the other was Harrods, because they're well known & people talk about them. I'm ecstatic. I chose the Ivy! Those other 2 restaurants are much more expensive, the Ritz is more than double for the same or similar items. I always make reservations ahead and this was no exception, I made my reservations 2 months early. When we arrived, we were greeted warmly and our Hostess told us we had a good table because we made a reservation. Making that reservation really helped because we got the bomb table!! Best seats in the house! Our table was the only round, corner table in the restaurant. It was situated perfectly in the best, cozy, most beautiful part with ample view of everything happening. Our Afternoon Tea was such an amazing experience. You choose from various teas and the tea kettles are brought out. I chose a mint tea and my husband got Earl Grey. The tea kettles are large and hold lots of tea. Once the serving tray is brought out, our server added liquid to the top bowl and it activated the sublimates inside the dry ice, causing a lovely scene. The food items brought on a beautiful serving tray included the following for both: Ivy 1917 Cure smoked salmon and cream cheese finger sandwich. Grilled chicken and truffle mayonnaise brioche roll. Pickled cucumber, courgette and basil double decker, my personal favorite. Scones Warm fruited scones with clotted cream, fresh strawberries and strawberry preserve. I enjoyed the scones because they weren't overly sweetened, like in the US. Sweet Blackberry and cherry choux bun, so yummy!! Espresso coffee cream, which is quite a decadent mousse. Apple, cinnamon and caramel cupcake, very cute and delicious. Perfect amount of cinnamon. Madeleine with chocolate sauce. They also included 2 chocolate gold wrapped medals, keeping close to the Olympics. We thought this was a perfect touch. It may not seem like a lot of food, but it was. I brought home one of the scones, the Madeleine, and most of the choux bun. I really loved the location of this Ivy. Chelsea was a great place to walk around after our meal. I wish I lived in London, I would come back for the Sunday roast and Brunch. Great vibes, cool people, excellent service. Loved it.

I was at this food hall in December 2013. It's located on the ground floor of this large department store. The displays are extremely fancy and captivating. I recall seeing mini cakes that looked yummy. Even the fruit in the display case, as in apples, pears, and more, looked amazing and in pristine condition. The pastries looked scrumptious. I could smell the croissants! You can get sandwiches, from egg salad to lobster rolls. Feel like steak and chips? Yep, you can get them here, too. I frankly couldn't tell you what you can't get here. I felt like a dream seeing so much good food, but it wasn't. It's definitely worth a visit, whether you end up browsing like me because the prices were steep or you end up splurging. There was a wine section that had shiny bottles of fancy wine varieties. You could get cheese to complement your wine. Everything in this store looked beautiful and elegant. I would do a few things differently when I return to this food hall: - I'd do afternoon tea. I'd actually splurge to experience tea here because I didn't realize that I could until after my Harrods visit. - I'd find a hotel room with a fridge, so I could bring back pastries, macarons, sandwiches, and more. - I'd dine here to experience the entire food hall experience instead of dining at a restaurant within Harrods.

    What a cheeky little candlelit dream at The Pig's Ear in Chelsea! We enjoyed an intimate evening…read morewith my closest friends, sharing plates like we owned the place--steak that melted in the mouth, crispy lamb croquettes, and plenty more delicious bites, all washed down with rich red wine. Dessert? Let's just say we didn't hold back and it was worth every indulgent spoonful. The Camelot-inspired ambience with that soft candlelight had us feeling properly spoiled and a little bit naughty. Carlos was an absolute gem of a server--warm, fun, and on point--while Mark at the bar kept the cocktails flowing perfectly. Such a charming, tasty night. Already planning our return... with even bigger appetites Highly recommend!

    A classic and perfectly type cast English pub. Could be used as a scene for a television show or…read morea movie. Some quirky decorative elements. The deep sea diver at the entrance is unique. The 4 big and matching chandeliers in the room give an air of elegance. The food is yeoman good enough. Bambie enjoyed her fish & chips. My pork was delicious and cooked perfectly. Service folks are engaging, happy and keep the experience fun. Food & drink prices are typical Chelsea establishment high. We ate here the week of the Chelsea flower show. The featured four course menu was priced at 90 quid per person. I passed on that offer. Located on a quiet residential street. If you are driving, you may even find a parking spot (no guarantees). Is this place remarkably better than most well run pubs? IMHO, not particularly. But, I'm an old curmudgeon, it's probable that your happiness here will surpass mine.
