Fish & Chips

The best fish and chips in London. The Victorian dining rooms, the family counters that have been frying for sixty years, and the shops the trade's own awards keep naming - in every part of the city, not only the middle of it.

The Seashell of Lisson Grove

Frying since before the war, in a marble-and-mint room that takes itself seriously.

Sit-down restaurantGluten-free options

The Seashell was frying before the Second World War and has been at this address since 1964. It is the smarter end of the form - marble, tiling, proper service, a wine list - and the portions are large enough to be a talking point. Mushy peas come with the fish rather than as an extra.
