Reviews of Fischer's

Food Austrian 🇦🇹 restaurant if you like schnitzel and sausages. Friend and I went for lunch. Was fairly empty on the weekend if you arrive around 12ish. The waiters are friendly and they try to space the table out and give good seats to you if available. Food is great. It’s probably the more authentic one you can get in London. Nice interior decor with warm and darker tones of finishes. Ideal for casual lunch with friends and family. Or even a date

Dining at Fischer's in London was an unforgettable journey into the heart of Austrian culinary tradition. From the outset, the schnitzel stood out, brilliantly prepared and accompanied by an Austrian-style potato salad that was the epitome of flavorful simplicity. Every bite echoed the rich nuances of Austrian cuisine, leaving a lasting impression of warmth and satisfaction. Beyond the food, Fischer's ambiance played a crucial role in our experience. Its cool, dark wood interiors not only exuded elegance but also evoked the genuine coziness of a traditional Austrian inn, transporting us miles away from the bustling streets of London. Our meal concluded with the bananas 'foster', a dessert that perfectly encapsulated the blend of tradition and innovation at Fischer's. For anyone in London yearning for an authentic taste of Austria, Fischer's promises not just a meal, but a memorable experience.

I was only in London for one night, so had difficulty guessing what time we’d be eating so hadn’t booked. Fortunately, being two of us, we were able to slot in between bookings and have a quick 2 course dinner. I’d highly recommend the Wiener Schintzel with gravy. The courgette was a great accompaniment too. The decor was amazing. Reminded me of all the dark wood in my Viennese grandmother’s house. Do nip to the toilets! I wouldn’t normally mention toilets in a restaurant review but they were so authentic. I’d recommend booking!

Went to this Austrian café /restaurant in Marylebone High Street for a coffee and couldn't resist their Esterhazy cake which was delicious! The tea/coffee was served in silverware pots, the napkins were linen and the waiters were nicely attired and very efficient and the general ambience took you to another era. Will definitely go again once to try the famous Sacher Torte with coffee and another time to have the Wiener Schnitzel for lunch.

Fischer's restaurant offers classic Austrian fare, accompanied by a well-curated wine selection and delicious coffee. The ambiance takes you back to old-world Vienna. Don't miss their flavorful chopped chicken salad and refreshing lemon sorbet ice cream. Seating on the street provides a great spot for people-watching. Overall, Fischer's restaurant is a delightful culinary journey that captures the essence of old-world Vienna. From the classic Austrian fare to the evocative ambiance, every element is carefully crafted to transport guests to a bygone era. Whether you're looking for a leisurely lunch, a romantic dinner. Enjoy @remnantsrita

A fantastic experience with some amazing food and great service. The restaurant is very well appointed and feels like an authentic experience. Service is efficient, friendly and quick. The food is fantastic. Really great flavours. It might look and read as quite simple but the flavours are fantastic. Had the chicken schnitzel, delicious. Mashed potato and broccoli were both amazing! Highly recommend.

I was at Fischer's with my wife and we were meeting up with a friend who recommended this. Really enjoyed the late lunch here. The ambience is quite old school and nice. I had eggs benedict and they were fantastic! Really enjoyed the meal here. The service was great and we cannot recommend this enough (especially to sea food lovers).

Had a lovely Saturday evening dinner here, in grand wooden surroundings, feels like you are in Austria ! The stuffed animal heads on the walls are a bit scary. The room reminds me a lot of The Grand Budapest Hotel movie. Toilets are equally grand, although small<br/>The food is wonderful, very authentic. For starters we had wild mushroom tart and a selection of 3 brotchen - very tasty delicacies on little sourdough bread 'soldiers'<br/>For mains we both had Wiener schnitzel (= veal in breadcrumbs), an enormous dish which beat both of us, but very tasty. We had sides of creamy mash and baked cauliflower. Lovely warm strudel with creme fraiche to finish off<br/>A really nice all round special experience - quite pricey (as the schnitzel is expensive) but well worth it, in lovely location

Fischer’s is a beautiful cafe and restaurant located on Marylebone High Street. Their classic Viennese café menu runs from breakfast to morning coffee, through to lunch, mid-afternoon snacks and a full dinner service. But best of all, it is the perfect place to linger over a decadent and authentic Viennese coffee and cake and to celebrate Austria day, this is exactly what we did!

Met a client for breakfast here. You feel like you are stepping into a little bit of Austria, it's just so authentic. Lovely polished wood, such a luxurious feel.<br/>Difficult to over enthuse about breakfast, we both had the healthy granola with fruit and yoghurt, very tasty. I'd definitely like to try dinner here.

Where The Wolseley and Delaunay (part of the Corbin and King mini-empire) are effortlessly grand and ooze class, this was all a bit Disneyland. It was too shiny, too constructed, as if it had borrowed it’s facade from a plastic surgeon’s table. Harley Steet is only a short walk away, after all. Think Grand Budapest Hotel. The sort of place you find potty old women who look like Joan Rivers (god rest her) feeding their handbagged poodles with strudels from the sterling cutlery. The artwork is like something a rich foreign uncle you never knew you had, leaves you in his will, but you feel too guilty to ditch. The menu is strongly Germanic- Käsespätzle, Esterhazy Schnitten, Passion Fruit Gugelhupf- dishes that will cover anybody sitting around you in phlegm as you try to pronounce. They wouldn’t be out of place coming out of one of Professor Slughorn’s classes. But this being Marleybone, where the majority of the clientele grew up during the war, these dishes are no doubt old world classics, which slip off their tongue and please those fading palettes.

Though my family aren’t religious my dad has long claimed to be gastronomically Jewish. Just like everyone he craves the comforting food of childhood that he ate growing up in the East End of London. Living in Stamford Hill, my dad could easily grab a salt beef bagel (or two!), pick up some gefilte fish or get a good dose of chicken soup. There aren’t many Jewish restaurants in London and most are located in Jewish communities such as Golders Green, so it’s not an easy task finding my dad a restaurant that serves his favourite childhood classics. That’s why when I saw the menu at Fischer’s I knew it would be perfect for him…Ok, Fischer’s isn’t a Jewish restaurant, it’s actually Austrian…but the menu is packed with his favourites and trust me there aren’t many places in London with chopped liver and pickled herring on the menu. Chopped liver is my dad’s absolute favourite and he had no doubt what (one of) his starters would be. Fischer’s serve it with Matzo, as it is traditionally served at Passover, an religious occasion where leavened bread is forbidden. I asked my dad if it was as good as his sister makes, ‘No’ was the reply….well I guess it’s never quite the same…but he still gobbled the whole thing up and was so excited by the menu that he had two starters.

I really do love restaurants like this - space, leather banquettes, and gleaming marble, wood, and gold, art deco, linen table settings - elegance with warmth and comfort. The food is solid, well cooked, and generous - nothing more or less. I ate the veal schnitzel and would have been perfectly fine with a small piece. Sausages were excellent. Sacher torte was to die for. Service was very friendly if a tad slow. Lovely bathrooms! All in all, would be very pleased to come back, and now know where to head if I'm craving Austrian fried veal. Or cakes...

Chris Corbin and Jeremy King, the two gentlemen behind restaurant group Corbin and King founded in 1981, have the golden touch when it comes to eateries.  They run an impressive selection of London's finest restaurants, from Le Caprice, J Sheekey and The Ivy back in the day (all since sold), to the current roster including The Wolseley on Piccadilly, The Delaunay on Aldwych and 2012's Parisian-style Brasserie Zedel behind Piccadilly Circus.  The latest, in the style of a beautiful, grand European café, is Fischer's in Marylebone. Marylebone High Street's lovely village feel has just got even better.

I don't often leave dinner plans to the last minute, but on this rather rare occasion I decided to try out the Uncover app and browsed the list of restaurants with dinner time availability. Many of the venues had really late slots, but thankfully Fischer's seemed to have my preferred time of 6.30pm, and a few finger taps later we were booked in, an email confirmation swiftly arriving in my inbox.

Fischer's is the newest addition to the list of Corbin & King restaurants which has been conceptualised as a Viennese cafe providing schnitzels and other continental European treats. It kind of echoes vibes of my experience at the Delaunay. Also, the restaurant opened in the buzzing neighbourhood of Marleybone which seems to be the 'in' food scene in London at the moment. The atmosphere is what you would expect of any Corbin&King restaurant; themes of elegance, antiquity, European-ness topped up with dashes of posh here and there. This ambience was given off by the dark-glimming wood panels, dim lighting, vintage paintings/posters and other things of the sort. What I like about the restaurant is that it has captured the up-market vibe but has also managed to fuse it with a sense of comfort. Ms.EQP (equally quirky person) was once again joining me and when we finally settled in, we decided to start with the Käsespätzle (£4.75) which is a sort of gourmet mac 'n' cheese. It was very rich and delicious; well balanced in terms of saltiness. However, it was too heavy for a starter.

Exemplary Austrian cuisine in the heart of London in very Austrian style cafe. We had brunch - Austrian Gröstl and Wiener schnitzel. It was indeed very traditional and yummy. Kaiserschmarrn served with cream and plum compote was light and delicious. We didn't have reservation but managed to get table after waiting just 10-15 min on the bar. Very recommended but not many (infact hardly any) options if you are a vegetarian. Service could be improved in terms of attention to customers and detail.

There are some restaurants worth visiting for the atmosphere alone. Fischer’s in Marylebone is one of them. The dining room is stunning - a mock-up of a grand Viennese konditorei with imposing railway clocks, old-fashioned portraiture and a stuffed animal menagerie all forming part of the set. In fact, eating dinner at Fischer’s is like being in a Wes Anderson film i.e. my idea of fun.

On the site of what used to be Cotidie, Fischers opened in June 2014. It is the latest outpost in the Corbin and King empire, which includes The Wolseley, The Delaunay, Colbert and Zedel. As with the Delaunay, Fischers is an all-day brasserie loosely inspired by early 20th century Vienna. Diners can eat breakfast, afternoon tea with strudel and cakes, or indulge from the lunch and dinner menu. The latter features schnitzel, German sausages (surely the wurst of all sausages?) and other hearty fare. Starters were priced from £7.25 to £12, main courses £13.25 to £26, side dishes £3.50 to £4.25 and desserts from £5.25 to £7.95. A £1.75 cover charge is added to the bill at lunch and dinner This contentious policy’s idea is apparently to differentiate between formal tablecloth dining at lunch and dinner (when it applies) and the more casual service outside these hours (when it does not). Personally I think cover charges annoy people on principle and should just be absorbed into the general pricing. The dining room is reminiscent of The Delauney, with its art deco style and tiled floor.<br/><br/>The wine list, with 50 reds and whites plus a few champagnes and dessert wines, ranged in price from £19.75 to £135, with a median price of just £43. It was nice to see so many Austrian wines on the list, though there are some French wines too for the less adventurous. Example labels were Grüner Veltliner ‘Lois’ 2013 Loime at £23 for a wine that you can find in the high street for £8, Riesling ‘Kamptaler Terrassen’ 2012 Bründlmayer at £40 for a wine that you can find in a shop for £11, and St Laurent Alte Reben 2009 Pittnauer from Burgenland at £70 for a wine that retails at £28.<br/><br/>Salad of beetroot and goat’s curd was pleasant, the yellow and purple beetroot having reasonable flavour, the dish nicely presented and topped with a few dressed salad leaves (13/20). I also tasted the chopped liver, which was served with crispbread and had good flavour.<br/><br/>Chicken schnitzel was served in a pool of meat reduction, the breadcrumb coating golden and even, the chicken inside cooked correctly. It is hard to get thrilled about such a dish, but it was very pleasant and is also surprisingly easy to mess up, as I have found eating versions over the years (14/20). The origins of this dish, traditionally made with veal, are lost in the mists of time but supposedly was served at a banquet in 1134 in Milan. There is also a reference to a thin slice of meat fried in breadcrumbs attributed to Marcus Apicius, the 1st century Roman gourmet, so the dish has certainly stood the test of time. My companion ate a further schnitzel variant in the form of veal Holstein, which also tasted good. Side dishes of sauerkraut, spinach and spaetzle were fine, though for me the cabbage could have had more vinegar (13/20). <br/><br/>Strudel of apple and walnut was made in the kitchen downstairs and had good texture and a little sharpness from the apples used. I have eaten better strudel in my life, but this was very a capable version (13/20).<br/><br/>Coffee was from Musetti, and as often with that popular brand, was pleasant rather than anything more. Service was excellent, the staff attentive and friendly. The bill, with some glass of wine to drink, came to £61 a head. If you had three courses and coffee and shared a bottle of modest wine then a typical bill would be around £65 a head. This seems to me a tolerable price for the level of food delivered. As ever with the restaurants in this group, the smart décor and capable service will be the main reason why most diners return.

The restaurant Fischer's is located in the begining of the poplar Marylebone High Street and it offers Viennese and German cuisine. The closest tube stations are Baker Street and Regents Park. <br/>The menu in the restautant includes traditional German and Viennese  sausages, salads, club sandwiches, different desserts like traditional ice-cream, biscuits and delicious strudels with apple and blackberry.

Corbin and King, the partners behind iconic restaurants such as The Delaunay and The Wolseley have recently opened Fischer’s on Marylebone High Street. The Austrian cuisine menu serves the likes of Schnitzels, Wurstchen, Strudels and more. The Clientele were of the older generation dressed up to the nines, the women donning their pearl necklaces, the men sporting their favourite jacket. But with the reputable image of The Delaunay and The Wolseley, and in Marylebone, I wouldn't expect anything less. Anyway, it’s nice to see people still dress up for dinner.<br/><br/>We kicked off starters with Kasespatzle (with bacon), a form of Egg noodle or dumpling tossed with Cheese and topped with Onion, which was my friends choice. A resemblance to Macaroni Cheese, it tasted delicious and could easily be good comfort food at home. I opted for the Beef Broth with Cheese Dumplings. With a massive depth of Beef running through the dish this was very flavoursome, and the two balls of Cheesy stodge soaking up the broth were a delight. Chicken Schnitzel was for main - Holstein style, the addition of Anchovy, Capers and Egg. This was a big plate of food and my manhood status heightened once I finally managed to plough through it. I felt like a King from the 15th century, savagely scoffing this back, glugging my pint of Stiegl, pretty sure the rock salt sprinkled on top, along with the saltiness of the Anchovies and Capers were clogging my arteries. But I didn’t care, it had to be finished.<br/><br/>Once the bloating of the mains had settled, it was time for dessert. A Hazelnut and Chocolate pudding and a Sweet Cherry Strudel is what we selected. The pudding, topped with sliced Hazelnut looked a bit disappointing when it was put in front of me. Luckily, when cutting in with my spoon, a silky, smooth river came pouring out ready to be scooped up and transported to my mouth. The Strudel, I’m told, was amazing. My dining partner didn’t let me have a look in, but assured me it was good.<br/><br/>Service was good, although I felt I saw the waiting staff too often at our table - a bit like a London Pigeon, popping out of nowhere. The setting was very 1920’s glamour, with Art Deco tiling and a huge clock hanging from the ceiling. Overall, the food was great, but nothing amazing, just satisfying, stodgy food and priced very well. A good recommendation if you happen to be in this part of town and want to experience the Viennese way of dining.

a Viennese breakfast at Fischer’s, the Austrian one of the family. A plate of smoked meats and sausage, boiled egg, tomato, gouda and soft pretzel roll...lovely with their fresh cherry juice and tea. The teeny Viennoiserie were excellent too (and sweetly a birthday freebie), especially the little flaky croissant (plain and almond) and pain au chocolat.

Fischer’s is now one of my favourite Marylebone restaurants. It recently opened on the premises that an Italian restaurant Cotidie used to occupy before it closed down. Fischer’s is a sister restaurant to Wolseley, The Delaunay and Brasserie Zedel and the style and interior is done in the same last century central European style. Just like the Delaunay, Fischer’s focuses on Austrian food, but in contrast to the Delaunay it is a much smaller restaurant which makes it more intimate.   I love the food that Fischer’s serves. The menu includes such exciting things like cured fish, schnitzels, sausages, brötchen and strudels. I came here for lunch on a weekend with my boyfriend and literally wanted to order everything. Being easter European, this is the sort of food I want to eat. In the end my boyfriend ordered Austrian Gröstl, a sort of

There is nothing counterfeiting about their commitment to providing brilliant and affordable, extravagant and special servicing. One of the finest servicing. Ordered Austrian Wine along with food! Eminent taste and quality and modest bill! Peculiar sense of conferring to customers is a unique to this place! I would recommend this place to all!

I not from the city, but after trying this restaurant i have decide i will never return. The reason for this is probably the food.I am an Austrian and am quite fond of schnitzel and in my experience , i can say that they make one of the most pathetic schnitzel ever. The value for money then is below satisfactory and on top if it the service absolutely inefficient.

The place has a very interesting menu with dishes written using umlauts, a mark which has a significance in respect of pronunciation. The dishes are descriptive thankfully. My favourites from the menu are A pork, garlic sausage, grilled rib eye, apricot dumpling with vanilla ice cream and an espresso sprinkled with belgium chocolate! Drool worthy selections!

I, along with my family, went there and it turned out to be a pretty good choice. The ingredients used were amazingly fresh and the food was very well-prepared and presented. It tasted more delicious than what I had expected and we would be back again. I also recommend you to give this place a visit.

What a transformation; it’s a really beautiful restaurant – like a glamorous Austrian cafe in a railway station. The atmosphere felt lively and buzzy yet not manic or out of control which was impressive seeing how busy the place was; there was a constant flow of people coming and going throughout our entire visit.

Having an inexplicable want for strawberry ice cream over chocolate ever since childhood, i stumbled up this place on my phone while preparing for a road trip.<br/> I also tasted the palatial pork sausages which screamed of garlic that balanced out the flavours much to my charm. <br/>This place is a must try.

I love going out with my sister. Having got past her inexplicable preference for strawberry ice cream over chocolate as a child, there isn't a time in our grown-up lives when we haven't both wanted the same things on a menu, so we do the half : half thing. Thus I got to taste the sausages, Käserkrainer (pork and garlic stuffed with Emmental) and Thüringer (caraway spiced pork) and the Tafelspitz

I recently visited this place and had a great time here. The food was excellent and was cooked to perfection. The service was pretty quick and efficient. The ambience was just the one expected from an upscale place. Thus, I would love to visit this place again and would recommend others to try this place as well.

Fischer's happens to be one of my favorites now. Based on the amazing concept of the previous European century this place happens to be quite a personality. The food served is amazing and excellent value for money. Staff is very friendly and pleasing. I can assure you that you would walk out totally satisfied. Way to go Fischer's.

Summary:<br/><br/>If you’ve wandered into a Jeremy King and Chris Corbin venture before (The Wolseley, The Delaunay, Brasserie Zedel), you’ll instantly recognise the space as one of theirs; they are masters at baroque beauty, early twentieth-century glamour, bustling European-style all-day brasseries, panelled walls and big clocks. The menu partially reflects those in The Delaunay and The Wolseley - the presence of schnitzel, wursts, wieners, ice cream coupes and sachertorte are ubiquitous.<br/><br/>At Fischer’s though, there’s a greater delve into a specific Viennese offering. I had only recently learnt about spätzle - and more importantly, how to correctly pronounce it (shpetz-leh) - at an evening cooking with part-Austrian TV cook Rachel Khoo. You'll find them here, and they’re good. Pasta dough pushed through small holes to make little dumplings, finished in butter and with a generous amount of garlic that I more than agree with (£3 - side).<br/><br/>Chopped liver with sweet rounds of pickles is also very much of-that-region; a well-textured paté served with crisp bread, it’s a solid way to begin (£6.50). Beetroot and goat’s curd salad was as good as those components have capacity to be, assuming fresh and seasonal ingredients - the case here (£8.25).<br/><br/>Not ordering a schnitzel on my maiden visit to an Austrian café would be, I suspect, little short of sacrilege. Couple this with most of social media responding with ‘the schnitzel!’ to my pre-lunch research query of ‘what’s good at Fischer’s?’, and I’m going to order a schnitzel. <br/><br/>And so it was the Holstein or nothing, a huge veal cutlet pounded tender, breaded, and plunged into hot oil, topped with a fried egg, a criss-cross of anchovies and a scattering of tight capers (£21.70). Very pleasant it was, if not hefty, even for me. With hindsight, it seems I was served the large option, and yet I don’t recall being asked which size I wanted; there is also a ‘small’ available for £12.75.<br/><br/>A few other service teething problems were noted. Our starters came before our glasses of champagne, then offered on the house by way of an apology. Another waitress introduced our dessert wines with “I don’t know how to pronounce these - I shouldn’t be working in an Austrian restaurant”, albeit jokingly. And there were additional hints the staff weren’t entirely au fait with the menu. I say teething problems, they’ve been open since spring.<br/><br/>The menu is full of umlauts that are fun to pronounce with your best Schwarzenegger drawl, my favourites being: käsekrainer (pork, garlic and emmental sausage), zwiebelrostbraten (grilled rib eye), marillenknödel (apricot dumpling with apricot compote and vanilla ice cream), and überstürzter (long espresso and belgian chocolate poured over whipped cream). <br/><br/>Try saying those after a couple of glasses of Pommery, or, if you’re the waitress. There’s also an extensive choice of cured fish, salads, brötchen (rolls), sandwiches and biscuits.<br/><br/>For a sweet finish, there was an apple and walnut strudel which I didn’t try but my companion said was pleasant enough (£6.95). The Wien - a towering assembly of coffee and vanilla ice cream with whipped cream and espresso anglaise sitting atop chewy bits of meringue like those found in Lucky Charms - was good, if not confrontational in its challenge to clear it. ‘Finish me, I dare you’ it silently flounced upon delivery - another big portion (£5.95).<br/><br/>I’d go to Fischer’s again if I was in the area. I like that it’s an all-day establishment and you’re not pressured to dine on a full three courses; a catch-up over coffee and konditorei is perfectly acceptable and exactly befits the style of the venue. In terms of the food, it’s not ground-breaking but it’s solid; essentially middle-European classics executed well. <br/><br/>With similar formats and some of the signature items also available at The Wolseley and The Delaunay, I’d say that if they’re more geographically accessible (the case for me), there’s probably little need to venture to Marylebone specifically for Fischer’s. But maybe for the spätzle.
