Poppies in Hanbury Street was Pop’s first restaurant and the one where the journey began. The retro-diner and takeaway is close to Pop’s heart as it brought 70year old Pat out of retirement. It fulfilled his lifelong dream of opening an East End chippie and a desire to offer customers a taste of the old East End.

    Best plaice that I have had for a long time. Batter very tasty and plenty of ‘meaty’ fish flesh. Fresh and hot … could not eat all the chips!!

    My mother said it was the best fish and chips she has ever had. She is very hard to please.

    Ordered a large portion of chips but there weren’t many chips on my plate. The chips that were there were lovely though and so was the fish. I wanted large Cod but it was unavailable (as it was on my previous visit too) - settled for large Haddock which was lovely. Was sat right underneath a speaker and found the music a touch too loud and we all had to shout at each other to have a conversation.

    Some confusion over booking when we arrived otherwise excellent. We always visit Poppies in Spittalfields when we come to London. Fish and chips always delicious. Crispy batter. Lovely chips. Mushy peas really good. Very quick service

    We went here in October while on a tour between Horizon 22 and the spotalfields market. Good ambience, it seems to be in a '50 American diner. The food was really great, we tried the regular cod and the rotisserie chicken both delicious. The staff is really kind and available to any request.
