Fish Union is an acclaimed seafood restaurant and fishmonger situated in Chislehurst. Founded by chefs Richard Kirkwood and Andy Roberts - whose culinary backgrounds include prestigious London establishments such as J. Sheekey and Wright Brothers - Fish Union offers a distinctive dining experience that marries fine seafood with sustainability and local charm.
The restaurant features a daily changing menu, reflecting the freshest seasonal catches sourced from well-managed fisheries. Start with a selection of light bites such as marinated anchovies, or roasted padron peppers, or choose from a selection of oysters with everything from classic Carlingford rock oysters to Korean fried oysters with ranch dressing.
Opt for a selection of shellfish platters or small plates to follow, with dishes such as chilli salted tiger prawns and octopus in an onion soubise with anchovy dressing. You’ll also find a selection of daily-changing market fish or seafood-focused mains. For those not in the mood for fish, choose from the likes of pork chop with chimichurri, or corn-fed chicken with chicken fat potatoes and pancetta.
Complementing the food is a curated selection of fine wines and signature cocktails. The restaurant also hosts weekly events like ‘Mussel Madness’ on Thursdays, featuring mussels with sides and a glass of wine, and a ‘Happy Hour’ offering chilli salt tiger prawns for £1 each.
Fish Union's commitment to sustainability extends beyond its menu. The establishment uses biodegradable, compost-friendly packaging made from potato starch and collaborates with suppliers to ensure responsible sourcing practices.
Located in the heart of Chislehurst, a leafy suburb in southeast London, Fish Union provides an intimate and buzzing atmosphere, making it a must-visit destination for seafood enthusiasts.
