Established in 1999 and proudly celebrating twenty years in Borough Market this year, fish! was the first restaurant of its kind in London. Our concept is simple – providing our customers with the best quality fish, cooked in front of you, in simple and classic ways. Since 1999 our focus has never changed, quality and responsible sourcing is still our main concern…we just look a bit more fancy now!
Our central location in Borough Market means that London’s best produce is right on our doorstep. We are proud to say that we source most of our produce from Borough Market itself, and our fish is delivered daily from our very own fishmonger, Jarvis, which is renowned for its extensive range of the freshest fish and seafood. We're also winners at the National Fish & Chip awards too!

Overall we had a good time but were unimpressed with a few details. After we’d ordered we were told that they didn’t have enough of one of the specials. Obviously we should have been told this before ordering. The smoked burrata with smoked salmon and rocket was generous in the quantity of salmon but not in the amount of burrata, which was tiny. The clam chowder had no flavour. The fish and chips mains were decent but could have done with more mushy peas. The Asian crab bun was a little dry but nice and crispy, and the grilled scallops and artichokes were tasty, but the sauce that came with them was bland. The bread and butter pudding was a huge portion and well flavoured. The chocolate mousse went down well too. The wine menu is good and unusually well priced for London. Service was friendly but we had to ask a few times for more water.

The menu was varied so plenty of choice. The food was good and the staff responsive. Wine was fine. Cost reasonable. Noise level a bit high for me but that is a common problem! Altogether a very pleasant early dinner. Only slight criticism was that the chowder was a bit thin.

Been here several times. Views towards Borough Market wherever you are seated. My friends all rave about the fish. Only one choice for vegetarians - delicious, but I’ve had it three times now. Great staff. Will keep coming back.

Have been to Fish on several occasions in the past. And although it never reaches the heights of other restaurants I go to, it's always pleasant and enjoyable. The food was good without being outstanding. The service was excellent, although I arrived at 5.15 and it was quiet, before getting busy and quite noisy. Overall, nothing to complain about. Nice food, well presented with attentive service. Just wish the rather hard chairs could be improved upon!

Great Dover sole with bubble and squeak accompanied by a bottle of Chablis. A perfect lunch before an international game of rugby. And the French lost!!
