Reviews Cod Father London Ltd

Had gone into this fish and chippy and ordered the classic fish and chips with a side of mushy peas, must say this place in terms of taste and quality is exceptional as one should expect for where it is located, the batter was nice and crispy as was the chips, not sure if they used a drying rack for the fish but there was no signs of it being too oily or greasy considering the fact that it was made fresh and not a premade one that some fish and chippies push out. The fish was nicely cooked and the texture of the fish was nice and tender; the chips was nice and crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside (similar to the fish). This place is nice and clean and you could tell that the chefs are hygienic in their food preps seeing as they follow the colour coding for the various types of food such as dairy, meat, fish and vegetables which if not followed would cause cross contamination. The decor is bright and not too much in your face; the setting up of the tables also has enough space to maneuver and is not cramped up full of tables and chairs. The atmosphere is quite quiet with a tranquil feel to it, personally I feel that this fish and chippy could benefit from hosting sports events on their television sets as the location seems to consist of young working professionals that would be up for a meal and some entertainment. If you look closely on their windows they also have an allergen and intolerance sign which would be very helpful for someone with specific dietary needs. Overall the fish and chip meal I received from this venue was gorgeous and cooked very well to my liking. A quick note, chips does not come with the fish and is a seperate item on their menu list that has to be ordered with the fish.

Read the reviews a few days ago and decided to skip this place and went to another closer to me with better reviews.Boy was i wrong to do so. Best fish and chips place ever,ok maybe the second best,but definitely the most atmospheric one. Like the time has stopped in 1984. I get it why people give it bad reviews in this time and age. Service is slow,the place looks well used to put it mildly and I am pretty sure they dont have all the ingredients for all the dishes on the menu.Asked the guy for fried onion rings and he had to go in the back and check if there were any onions in stock,more on that in a second. So after a 20ish minute wait the food was ready, no hot storage fried fish and chips sitting there since who knows when,everything was cooked right there and then. The haddock was a good size ordered the large one and very tasty and the chips were soft and fresh as well. But am I glad he found that lone onion at the back,the BEST ONION RINGS ever, freshly made. I almost went back to get more but then remembered that I probably got the last one. So next time you go there to get your fish and chips, order the battered onion rings,but dont forget to bring an onion or two with you just in case they are out or you will be missing out 😀

Amazing food friendly staff would recommend this place to family and friends.Generous portions.

Amazing fish and chips. I haven't had them this good in a long time. You know they're good when you don't even need sauce!

We’ve dined in and taken away many times and the friendliness, service and quality of food is consistent. The cod is divine! The oil is always fresh. Yes, the cost is a little pricey ..but the location is Greater London and the portions are generous. My only feedback would be an option for French fries as well as chips; the chips are quite thick and could be a little crispier but that may be my personal opinion. Will always return.

Fish (Cod) was excellent, some other items not so good. We ordered 3 cod, phoned ahead, when we got it home it was two cod and one rock (we think). Could not go back as everyone was waiting. The chips, although plentiful were very pale and anaemic, clearly not cooked twice or enough. Mushy peas very good, Shame have always had great products in the past.
