    Great fish and chips in a fun space with some real down-home characters serving. It was a fun experience and I went home full.

    Had a brilliant night there. The fish was beautiful and lots of mushy peas and tartare sauce : ) Service very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend and return.

    I remember the old seashell. No skate food quality was very poor The guys who worked there were pleasant but the overall experience was not nice. Sorry clean up your act. No skate for a fish restaurant unbelievable. They said they don't sell it as it was now more of a tourist spot. Clearly new owners

    We had a lovely, relaxed Friday Lunch! The service was wonderful! Our server was charming and attentive but also unintrusive when we were chatting! The food was lovely, though one of our dishes was slightly overdone!

    Fantastic fish and chips in a beautiful restaurant with truly excellent service, our waiter couldn't have been more welcoming and polite. A tad on the expensive side but well worth it for the quality of the food and the experience.

    Food was warm rather than hot. Cod was watery. A muddle over chips/salad. I know this is central London but prices are a bit steep. Overall a little disappointing.

    Superbly fresh Haddock, fried to perfection and the chips were spot on!! The service was a little slow considering there was only three tables sitting for lunch but not a big problem Can’t wait to revisit!
