Great fish & chips: wide variety of fish choices in relaxed local non-touristy atmosphere. My whole…read morefamily loved it.

When in London…read more... Anytime I visit the UK, one of my must haves is good old fashioned fish and chips. While at my hotel, I searched my trusty Yelp which brought me to Hoxton Fish House. I didn't have to look at the menu at the counter - I simply said "fish and chips" please. I took a seat outside and waited for my delectables to arrive. The time seemed like plank/burpee minutes, but in reality the food came out relatively quick. When I took my first bite / it was mission accomplished. Each bite was all I wanted and more. The fish and chips were fabulous - I ended up unable to finish due to the size of the meal. The atmosphere was pretty laid back and sitting outside was somewhat relaxing. If you're anywhere in the area, I highly recommend this place!

I was in London for a few days and craving some traditional fish and chips. This small restaurant…read morewas just a few steps away from where I was staying so I gave it a try and ordered the cod fish and chips. It was delicious, crispy and tasteful and reasonably priced. The only reason why this review did not get 5 stars is due to the fact that the chips were not all cooked to perfection. Some were very delicious, while some others tasted old and undercooked. Service was fast and I paid 16 GBP with a bottle of water.

The disappointing thing about all of this is that there is no way the workers who work there…read moreunderstand what are the goals of excellet customer service. I arrived at 9:20 PM knowing that they closed at 10 I had time to eat before they closed. I walked from my hotel as fast as I could just to have enough time because I saw the place as I was walking around I wanted to try it out because it looked really cool. Upon arriving, the Insight area was closed for any new customers. It being almost 930 I could understand somewhat. But in my concern, the worker that took my order said that I could sit outside. I put in my order set up the little bench outside and waited inside for my order to finish. My order finished at 9:30. I grabbed my drink. I grabbed my napkin. My fork went to sit outside and they had locked the bench down. I went back inside asking if they could unlock the bench cause there was still 30 minutes left. The workers there told me they could not unlock it because they need to be finished at 10 o'clock. I told them it would only take me 15 minutes or less to eat and they said no I'm sorry we will not unlock the bench. I ended up walking down the street ate the food as I walked as there was nowhere to sit. The service was really bad in the customer service absolutely unacceptable. My meal was €23 and I ended up eating it cold because there was nowhere to sit. I definitely will not be going back to this place and I highly suggest you do not go to this place if it's 30 minutes before closing and you're trying to eat somewhere where you could sit down. I really hope that the owner reads this and explains to their workers if someone is there ready to eat 30 minutes before closing the average person takes about 15 minutes to eat and should be allowed to eat. One star and most of that is connected to poor customer service.

Our first real meal in London and while I wasn't greatly impressed, I can say I wasn't disappointed…read more(except dessert but that might just be my American taste buds). The space is small and packed with vintage decor. It definitely has that old-school, classic London fish-and-chips shop feel. Cozy, a little tight, but full of character. I ordered the cod and chips, which most people agree is what you come here for--and I'd agree. The fish was fresh, the batter was crisp without being greasy, and overall it was solid and satisfying. I also tried the calamari and the sticky toffee pudding. Both were just not for me. Not terrible, pudding definitely ain't aligned with my tongue, but I wouldn't order either again. Service was straightforward and efficient; It's not a place you go for lingering, but more of a sit, eat, and enjoy the experience kind of stop. Overall, it's a good fish and chips spot and worth visiting if you're in the area, especially if you want something classic and reliable. I'll continue stopping by when I'm in London but solely sticking to the cod and chips next time.

Vinegar, salt and ketchup were also available and plentiful for dipping or dredging to your heart's content. We tried the cod/haddock and the hake, which was so light and delicate. The lobster roll was sadly over-dressed and lacking in lobster meat - save your stomach space for the fish. Decent beer and wine selections are available to wash down the fried feast.

The chips were thick-cut, properly salted, and tasted like real chip shop fries instead of frozen fast food fries. The place was completely packed, so I ended up eating on the stairs about a block away, honestly felt like part of the experience. One of those spots that doesn't try to reinvent fish and chips. it just does the classic version better than most places. Would easily go back next time I am in London.

This spot had some of the best fish I ever had with respect to fish and chips places. The service…read moreand ambiance were also good as well. I ordered the classic fish and chips with the curry sauce. All of the dipping paired well with the fish. The fish and chips are served on a massive plate with 3 sauces. Now where this restaurant needs some work is on the chips themselves. I am not sure if it was an off day but my chips came out dry and felt like they have been sitting out for a while. I'd expect with paying almost 30 quid that the chips would have been better quality. Overall, I would still recommend this place and would return in the future hoping that the chips are improved.

A solid 3 stars for me - didn't love it, didn't hate it. It left me somewhat confused…read more You see, perched at the bar on a stool it had a friendly, relaxed vibe and a trendy bar feel to it. Fast forward a half hour or so and in came lots of hipster-types with their oversized black-rimmed specs and skinny-jeans, fast-forward another hour or so and in came the over-dolled up ladies. I popped to the loo only to find myself walking through an area completely different from the bar front. I started wondering if I'd walked into a Wetherspoons by accident. It smelt like disinfectant and cheap aftershave and was full of old men and angry-looking young ones. And then I was back in the front bar surrounded by bimbos and "men" (read: boys) with hair like they'd just stuck their finger in a live socket. ... dear lord I'm getting old... Still, the house wine wasn't bad and I had a couple to drown out the sad reality of the situation.

The bar area is really big, so it is ideal for large groups, and pretty central to all the other places in the area. A plus is also the huge neon sign outside makes it easy to spot. We only had drinks, but the food that came out looked really good. I had pleanty of opportunity to see it, as the barman also acted as waiter. His waiting seemed seemed to be his priority, as I had to wait patiently at the bar, as he kept disappearing to get more meals from the kitchen. At least I knew I would be the next person to be served, as I was the only person waiting at the bar. The drught beer selection seemd to be sewn up by the Camden Brewery, although they had one draugh lager alternative in Estrella Damm, which was my choice. On going to the toilets downstairs, I saw a huge function room, which I understand is a populr disco. Despite appearing invisible for several minutes, I would come back here. It had a nice laid-back atmosphere. Although I'm talking about a Sunday afternoon. I'm sure it's a totally different stoty on a Friday por Saturday evening.
