  • Run by a group of Greek guys, this café-style chippie – established in 1914 – still has the feel of a traditional English gaff, despite a couple of Greek flourishes on the menu (greek salad and deep-fried feta cheese). The small, no-frills dining room has art deco touches including a disused 1950s fish fryer; it gets packed out by Marylebone locals, thanks to the reliably tasty grub and fantastic prices. There are no saveloys here; the short menu sticks to fish. Starters include scampi, calamari and fish cakes, mains cod, haddock and skate wing. All the fish we tried was fresh-tasting and skilfully cooked, either steamed or fried in light, crispy batter. Chips were slightly anaemic and could have been crunchier, but they were cooked through and served in satisfying quantities. Time-honoured English puds include spotted dick, apple crumble and raspberry jam sponge, all served with a generous dollop of custard.

    The ambience is very basic- which is one of the appeals of this place. The fish is very fresh but on the most recent visit was undercooked, perhaps because we were the first people at lunch and maybe the fryer temperature had not reached the desired level. Being able to bring in your own wine (there are wine shops very close by) with no corkage charge is a big plus.
