Fish not your thing? What about Sandwiches in London?

I have 1 rule in life, "Never buy fish and chips from somewhere which also sells southern fried chicken or donner kebab"

Love the video Tom, but it made me laugh at @4:40 when you said "That's the great thing about the Fish n Chip experience is finding a wall or a bench", then you end up just eating it standing up 🤣😞.

I love your taxi vlogs, Tom, but it’s also great to have other content as well. Food reviews, places of interest off the beaten track, history. Who better than a friendly, likeable and knowledgeable taxi driver to show us all the real London. Keep up the great work!!!

Some of these prices feel rather expensive, here in South West England, you can buy fish and chips for under £10.

Glad to see Poppies is still going. Had some good fish & chips from there over the years.

For me, Golden Union off Oxford Street does the trick. Eaten there a bunch of times now, and their Haddock & Chips pretty much always hits the spot. Their soft swirl afterwards is perfect to round off the meal.

For me, the best chippy in London is my local chippy, Ken’s Fish Bar. It featured on Somebody Feed Phil on Netflix and Jay Rayner has said it’s the best, if that’s anything to go by.
Chips are great, fish is great as batter is great.

(Its in South-East London, between Dulwich and Herne Hill)

If you're off the beaten track out east, Ifratelli at the top of West Ham Lane in Stratford are pretty hard to beat. Italian family owned, they've been there since 1966.

Closed on Mondays like a proper fish and chip shop should be. The traditional reason for this is that people didn't go fishing on Sundays so there would be no fish at the wholesale markets on a Monday morning. So if someone was open on Monday they were selling two day old fish. Doesn't really matter with refrigeration nowadays but it's funny how what once had a good reason begind it has just now become tradition.

Love this style of video! It's very Insider food tours style!

[GittosGaming]

£14.60 for the first one. I'm gonna get angry watching this. I pay half that price for bigger and better up in the north

[vamosmaryland]

Visited London for the first time last summer and landed on Fishcotheque - delighted to see it come out on top here! Had a great experience with it.

Golden Union on Poland Street, close to the junction of Oxford Street is A MUST imho. The batter is wafer-thin, light and crisp, the Cod fresh out of the sea.

[Mr.MSTER]

I'm the total opposite when it comes to skin on the fish. Not for me at all.

[barrycoppock]

Two of my favourites are Kennedy's on Goswell Road and Fish Central, on Central Street.

Did anyone else spot the real Routemaster going past at 1:52.
Priceless.
Nice to see promotion of other Traditional forms of London Transport. 😎

Such a personal thing, a regular topic of conversation on the rank...fishcoteque looked great.

[MrUltrAdaman]

Tom finally does Fishcotheque
Found it a couple of years ago when looking for a good chippie to take an American friend to... definitely not disappointed
