Toff's

This place must have gone down hil, because I heard so many good reviews of this place but have always been disappointed. I live in Muswell Hill so this is my local place for fish and chips, but unfortunately I have to avoid the fish completely. The batter is never as crispy as it should be, the one I had last night was chewy which is just wrong. I will say the chips are not bad.

This is our local, we eat there regularly and have never been disappointed. We go for the lunchtime special paying the £1 supplement for delicious grilled cod (it also comes with a choice of old fashioned batter or a thin and crispy matzo meal batter) with the freshest, hottest, best chips ever,mushy peas, a cup of tea and bread and butter, superb

It was my first time at Toff's fish. Fish and chips is my favourite dish and they really cocked it up! It was mostly hard batter (which I had difficulty getting my fork through) on my plate and tiny bits of cod-not a good solid fillet as I am used to. Well cooked and the portions were very, very generous which was great because I was absolutely starving!! ...but the food was tasteless including the lifeless salad and the insipid soup.You wouldn't think they were an old hand at this dish, although, so many of these glorified chippies change management then the quality diminishes, sadly. I always try anything once, especially where food is concerned but I won't be returning. There are far more superior fish restaurants in London.

Top class food with friendly service. A local institution..

Exceptional service.

I must have got a bad day for the staff, for they were appalling. I was convinced to go for the main meal offer rather than starter and chips which I originally asked for and was deliberately misled that this would be cheaper. Lo and behold the bill was more - that's one thing, but the manager was a bully. Funny - the difference was only a pound, so this would have been the tip if I had left one. Foolish PR. Best avoided. Ruined my day.
