Reviews Fishboroughmarket

Must go for fish n chips and Pimms !! Wines are also great 👍 tucked in a corner on the London bridge road this is a impressive dine out place with traditional food and contemporary setting!

Fish! Is a casual dining place for families and corporate Meetup. The sea food you get here are one of the best in great Britain. Take your family here.

I have passed Fish in Borough Market on many occasions. As I only seemed to develop a liking for seafood in later years, it moved up towards the top of my list as a place i wished to go. You feel that because it has been there a long time it has to be special to withstand the competition and fleeting tastes of folk. Having finally booked my table, I was a little bit stumped by the service. I sat there like a lemon with no one offering water or a drink. Staff preferred to make their finishing touches to their mis-en-place and chat. I had arrived early for my table 12.37, but I imagine the team should be ready to rock and roll with a busy market nearby and two settled tables inside.

I decided to watch them to make eye contact and I finally got attention. Having ordered a Gavi di Gavi, the glass arrived smudged with elements of the cloth they had used to dry it, great for a £10.50 glass of wine. Having ordered a bottle of water, he proceeded to pour it across my chest from the left to my glass on the right. Doesn't anybody get trained in service etiquette anymore?

I love seafood and the food looked great on their website, so I held on believing that the food would be the saving grace or at least the service would improve. Plus points on both fronts, the food was amazing and a blonde mature waitress who took over looking after out table really picked up the tempo on service.

Let's start with the food. Wow, the food. It was so good, I wish I could go back and start again from when the first dish was placed on our table. My visit was about seafood indulgence, so scrimping on can be ordered, it was full speed ahead. With a refreshing dry Gavi di Gavi to hand, we studied the menu for our order. Slight hiccup with our first order not being available (only after they went away to come back). Would be a good idea to know your 86 items, especially as we were on of the first tables to arrive. It was better service from there. Smiling, warm and sweet service. We finally settled on bruschetta and white bait. The bruschetta was truly something had not seen before. Red tomatoes that looked like they had been photo-shopped to look so vibrant and perfect. As my guest was Italian, she was certainly impressed too. As it was her selection, I could not wait for her to share her thoughts. She was delighted with the taste, mentioning that it actually tasted of ripe tomatoes. Now you would question why a tomato would not taste of tomato, but the thing is, most don't. They taste of nothing in fact. I imagine because of importing from hot countries, it is hard to maintain its originating succulence, and they may well be treated with all sorts of alien sprays to keep it at least fresh. Anyway, that is my inexperienced thoughts on it, but here, today, the tomatoes where lush on this crunchy sour dough bread. My whitebait was lightly floured and delicate.

For main course and with another Gavi di Gavi for me, we went for squid with chorizo and a whole lobster. Yes, I took it to the bridge and went for luxury. I do love lobster, regardless of the messiness with prying the meat out the tail etc. It is totally worth the fishy fingers. For her squid (tender) and chorizo (bursting with flavour), there was also more of our favourite tomato and sour dough bread. No problems with more of the same, as it was just plain lush.

My lobster had the perfect amount of garlic butter to no doubt warrant a mint after. The white meat, oh how I have dreamt of it nights to follow. Gorgeous.

Fish is the Fish place to go. Even with the service hiccups, the kitchen raised the bar and recovered the operational mishaps. Yes, I will go back and yes, I hope the service will be more consistent.

Ok food, pricy. I had a grilled sea bass with chips and bf for a cod and cips. My fish was tasty we were pretty impressed with the disclaimer at the menu flaming that everything is fresh and obtained from sustainable sources so we were happy. Our portions was big enough but i sensed and odd taste at the chips... other than that the fish was nicely grilled my bf really liked the fish and chips. We had orange juice and sparkling water with the meal and it cost us 49 pounds (gratitude included). But honestly though, you can get the same quality fish at somewhere else in town for less. So i guess we won't be visiting fish! again any time soon.

Fresh fish cooked to perfection

I stopped at this nice restaurant because curious. I did not regret it. The food is perfect. The fish is fresh and cooked to perfection.

The tuna burger with chips is light and extremely tasty. They have a wide selection of dishes a specific menu for the take way service.

The service is just right, attentive, warm and welcoming.

I had surely a good meal without breaking my bank. If you are looking for a place where you can have fish and seafood at a fair price I strongly recommend it.

Cozy atmosphere, delicious meals! I strongly suggest Fish! especially if you're new in town.

I was fancying some fish and chips on a Thursday afternoon while walking around Borough Market area - so wife and I pulled up to try this place out. Food was good, I ordered a Cod Fish and Chips while my wife ordered the Plaice Fish and Chips. Cod takes the win since it holds up its integrity better, while the Plaice’s moisture ends up making everything a bit soggy. Service was good and staff was welcoming and attentive. Food: good Service: good Atmosphere: relaxed, busy

We were lucky to get a spot on a busy Saturday for lunch. We didn't have to wait for long but each table were allowed to dine in for 90mins, not a problem for us. Soft shell crab burger is to die for! Tasty, yummy and delicious! Cod fish and chips were amazing too, juicy and fresh. Service staff was friendly. Food were served quickly.

We were craving for really legit fish & chips as we stumbled upon Fish after strolling around Borough Market. We had oysters, fish of the day with chips, grilled halibut & fish pie. Absolutely delicious!! The fish pie was unbelievably good! Probably try other dessert than sticky toffee pudding.. Overall a very pleasant meal & we would visit again!

Not line and no reservation and I could get a seat inside right away on a Saturday. Very good fish and chips and a lovely setting to boot.

Staff were accommodating to our request to change tables. They forgot to give us the olives we ordered so gave them to us on the house later. Generally quick service and good food.

Mussels were good. I do find the fish blend. Wines are reasonably priced.

Great service, nice place. Just the fish and chips were a little bit on the "taste less" side.

Our first dining experience in London was at Fish!. Getting fish and chips was on my trip bucket list (among many other things), and I had seen Fish! in a video as a great place to get fish and chips. We began our meal with a bread basket (an appetizer) and the bread was AMAZING! Sourdough is my favorite bread type, and this didn't disappoint! We ordered Skate Wing fish and chips because it was something we had never tried. It surprised us to find that it had cartilagenous bones in it that we had to eat around, but I am from Michigan and eat freshwater fish containing 'pin' bones, so it was fine. It was, overall, a very pleasant experience! The food was quite good, though I did add salt and pepper... in the US, I am accustomed to saltier foods. The service was as expected in a busy restaurant. Atmosphere was beautiful and airy... Overall, an excellent experience for our first meal in London!

Though this is a tourist place, but I must admit they served the best halibut & chips I ever tasted! Paired with S. Af. Chenin blanc, deser, donut from cross the street was savourily experience!
