So this chip shop is unbelievably popular. It's won awards in recent years and if you want to…read moreexperience why there are two ways to do this. It's not the biggest space inside, which for me will hold it back from being the thing it really wants to be ?a (restaurant), so its very cosy to say the least. I've nor eaten in and am highly unlikely to but never say never!!! If, like me, you go down the take away route then you have two choices. Rock (no pun intended) up place your order and wait or phone ages and place your order to ensure that you actuations get what it is that you want. The sped of service I'll vary depending on the time of day and which day of the week it is!!! Fridays is a log jam so phone thy order in. Once you her your name called you are close to getting your order filled. The usual condiments are offered and away you go. I've only ever had the fish and chips and had no complaints (aside from the wait even though we called ahead) I guess that's what you do on a Friday right?

Ordered me two mackerel baps and regular chips to takeaway…read more Served in either a white or a granary roll. The server asked if I wanted salad for an extra £1. I agreed. It's those fancy leaves you get in those posh salads at restaurants, or you can find them marked in the supermarket as 'four leaf salad'. So everything gets cooked and all wrapped in lovely greaseproof paper, except the chips, now those come in a box. First thing's first - do not order the salad in your roll. The bap is pretty thick and with the salad and the generous sauce (not a bad thing), you can barely taste the loveliness of the mackerel, albeit it a slightly greasy battered mackerel. A real shame in my eyes. Plus turns out that it is actually an extra £1 EACH for salad in the two rolls, and if you want anything other than salt and vinegar you'll have to pay 30 pence for takeaway sauces of Heinz ketchup and mayo which I thought was a bit much. I did enjoy the chips however, and a decent size for £1.60 for a regular portion. Now I do get that their unique selling point is to perhaps offer something beyond the traditional fish and chip establishment, and I actually adore the fact that they even sell mackerel in the first place as it is a hugely underrated fish in my opinion, but the place is a bit too pretentious for me (call me old fashioned!), and with the additional little charges, doesn't make it any more endearing.

Dessert review only! Okay so we learned about the British food called Spotted Dick and honestly,…read morethe group leans more towards immature. Anyway, I was tasked to find a place that sold it so we could say we ate it. Not many places do! Well, thank you Reddit for telling us to come to The Golden Hind. I made reservations, which weren't needed. The restaurant is located in a populated area but wasn't busy. It's pretty plain and simple inside. There's seating both inside and outside. The service by the staff was friendly, fun, and efficient. For dessert, we got Spotted Dick, Sticky Toffee Pudding, and Apple Crumble. You have the option to get either custard or ice cream. So I tried the spotted dick and was not a fan. It honestly just tasted like a moist fruit cake with custard all over it. Sticky toffee pudding was sweet and delightful, wish we had more of this back home! The apple crumble was a balance between tart and slightly sweet all with a nice crumb. All were classic British desserts that were decent but not the best. The workers shared that The Golden Hind is known for their fish and chips. Desserts are decent here but maybe try them for what they're known for! Service is good. Located in Marylebone it was a fun spot to say we tried spotted dick.

The space is rather plain looking - nothing special. I ordered the Golden Hind Traditional Fish and Chips. The fish was good - crispy batter and a good portion size. Chips were average at best. Not being accustomed to mushy peas, I wasn't enjoying them much. Service was pretty minimal. They took my order, served the food, and provided the bill. No small talk, no smiles, purely functional. It was OK, but certainly no reason to return.

I've been to London many times now, but this last time I decided to finally have British fish and…read morechips. I saw a recommendation for Golden Union, and so we made our way over there for lunch towards the latter half of our trip. The place itself is unsuspecting but ended up being actually very cute when we went inside. The neon signs and vintage furniture make it feel cozy. The staff themselves were also very welcoming. We sat down and were handed menus and waters. I decided to split the haddock and chips with my friend while my other friends got their own portion of cod and chips. Everything was pricey, but it is London. The waitress was also very engaging and friendly since she noticed we were tourists and also helped one of my friends with his journey to try British tea for the first time. Overall, she was so sweet. Despite not having crazy high expectations, the haddock and chips was incredible. The fish was soft, and the chips were fresh and not oily at all. It felt very fresh, and I finished my portion feeling very satisfied. My friends let me try their cod, and the cod was also fantastic--very buttery. The haddock is definitely my favorite though. Would come back on my next trip!

The fish is definitely the star of the show! Come here to Golden Union!…read more This is definitely a busy location. I was fortunate to come here just before it was peak dinner time and I did see a lot of people waiting. If you look to come here at usually meal times, be ready for a wait! What Is great about this establishment is that they have many options for your fish in case you are craving something in particular. With it being my first time here, I was looking to try either the Haddock or Cod, and decided on the Haddock. Once I received my fish and chips, I was ready to eat and wow the fish was so good and well fried. I tasted how good the fried batter was while all the flavor of the fish was still inside! I could eat this fried fish all day! The batter had the flakiness to it which added a nice texture. As for the chips (fries), I will say that they were average and nothing too special. However, keep that appetite for the fish! Make sure you finish that! Service itself was pretty fast and prompt. They definitely look to get your food quickly so you can enjoy your meal so they can accommodate as many people as possible.

They also have non fish options like chicken and savory pies. Everything was so cute and retro right down to the ketchup container.

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.
