A recent arrival on Pembridge Road, this young-at-heart chippie looks pristine with its cheery prints, rustic wood tables and white-tiled walls advertising fish from sustainable stocks. A high-tech
fryer keeps fat levels low, and the line-up runs from cod, haddock and plaice to rock eel, lemon sole, John Dory and other seasonal species – all served with chips and homemade tartare sauce. Flesh
out your order with mushy peas, Heinz baked beans or a pickled egg, and round off with something stodgy such as spotted dick and custard. Alternatively, ring the changes by plumping for roast
chicken, saveloys or a steak pie, all washed down with a bottle of beer or something from the minimal wine list – if something stronger than a pot of tea is required. The Fish House also does a
good line in takeaways.
