Ken’s! Back to the Somebody Feed Phil tour if London! The family and I took a trip out to Dulwich, where we got to meet the man, the myth, the legend Ken himself. We mentioned we watched the show and had to come out. He was extremely friendly and told us what we had to get.
We went with the cod and chips. It was light and airy but also perfectly crisp and tasty. We read some reviews that the fish is great but the chips left something to be desired, well that wasn’t the case for us.
The chips were crispy and delicious. The fish hit the spot, but it could’ve used a little more flavor. More salt in the batter potentially, and the vinegar was a little lacking in flavor.
Either way, a lovely experience was had with the entire family.
Located in the charming Herne Hill neighborhood, Ken's Fish Bar offers fantastic fish with generous portions.
The fish is cooked to perfection. The fries are ok, and the option to choose between two vinegars adds a nice touch.
Remember to bring cash as they only accept cash payments which is a real bummer, I think that it's way over due in 2023 to actually accept cards, I also missed the option of sparkling water.
Overall, a solid 4/5 dining experience, especially compared to other fish and chips shops.
Cod and chips was pretty nice. The fish was definitely better than the chips - crisp outside and tender inside. The chips were a bit oily and not as crunchy as I like. The tartare sauce was pretty average - tasted more like mayo and was a bit sour. Overall this is pretty good quality for London
