Excellent service the best fish snd chips in north London. So fresh So friendly and hospitable .. I recommend this place you will not be disappointed

Yesterday I tried a large cod and chips for the first time it’s was absolutely beautiful. Plus the young lady at the till was very friendly and helpful.

Poor service and cold food from Deliveroo means I collect myself now. On weekends you can’t order ahead. Every time I go they underestimate how long the wait will be. Last night I ordered two halloumi and chips. They said five minutes. I was stood outside in the freezing cold waiting for over 20 minutes. When I went inside I waited for an apology or explanation of delay ...nothing! Once prompted they said sorry and offered free mushy peas. The only reason I go back is that they claim not to fry chips in the same oil as fish and some of my family are vegetarian. The food is average and it’s expensive. I’m going to find an alternative!

This used to be our local chippy and we loved it. However, after changing to one size portion of chips the amount you get has been super inconsistent. They say 1 bag should serve two, but you never know. The last time we went in the portion they served us would even have served a child. My partner went back and the cashier had the cheek to shame my partner for ordering a second portion saying it's supposed to serve two, to which my partner complained it doesn't and she still charged him. We've been going to Toffs instead.

I ordered sausage in batter with chips last night via deliveroo and i was so very impressed,excellent presentation and in theyre own carrier bag which i was delighted with,the food was fantastic and extremely tasty,🏆

had enjoyed Cannon in the past of recent have had two very bad experience food served cold for takeaway and previous delivery my meal arrived as a dogs dinner.

Despite ordering three meals, they sent two out, meaning someone had to go without. On telling them this, they couldn't have cared less. I was told it was just too bad and that they were so busy that it didn't bother them. I will never use again and would advise you to avoid like the plague.

Cannons has been the one place I tell people to go to for their chips. Golden crispy and fluffy inside. Always the best. Never greasy. The gherkins are always firm. Tonight I went in. Soggy greasy chips,(one size only £3) very soft gherkin, (£1) I ordered a halloumi burger (£5.50)!! The burger was the cheapest bun in the world, there was literally no relish apart from a tiny smattering of mayonnaise and one soggy lettuce leaf. The halloumi was deep fat fried in batter and tasted oily. For £5.50 I would expect quality. What’s happened to cannons! I can get the same type of chips anywhere else for less ( this was an unnecesssry double portion with no choice) most places do small or large. Shame, I used to love Cannons. The standard has slipped. Maybe with what’s going on at the moment there’s a reason. Fine, but don’t charge the same extortionate prices. I expect value for money. Chips weren’t worth more than £2.00 maybe £2.50 re: quantity. The gherkin 50p (as well as soft, it was short!) The halloumi burger £4.00 And I rarely let myself buy chips, only now and then for a treat.

Have been coming here for years when visiting cousin who lives nearby. Large cod and chips Batter was fine, COD had no taste and the chips were horrible, rubbery. Service was good. This is a complete contract to previous visit, 3 months ago, when it was excellent.

I've never written a Takeaway review before but Cannons is special. We ordered plaice-and-chips + coleslaw salad. through 'JustEat'. After a few minutes the phone rang,"This is Cannons: unfortunately we are out of 'mushy peas'". I told them that was fine since we didn't like them anyhow but, since they were on the phone ─ I had wanted whitebait but didn't order it because it came with chips and we had enough of them ordered already. So the assistant said there was no way to pay at this stage but she'd put in a few whitebait anyway. When the order came (speedily) there was a full portion of whitebait! They were delicious with crispy batter and the same with the plaice. The coleslaw was fine too but, sadly, the chips were soggy ─ otherwise this would have been an even more enthusiastic 5-star review.

Visited to get fish and chips for friends after stressful sad hospital visit. tonight. Menu looked good and I was particularly pleased to see choices of fish. I chose the plaice. When we arrived home to tuck in it initially looked good but I discovered it was all batter and tiniest amount of fish. My friends had the haddock which they said was nice but rather too much batter. The chips were cold. Overall very disappointed and a waste of money as not cheap.

I had fish and chips so many times from Cannons’s and it’s always top notch.. Crispy Gold Chips, Fresh Fish,what else can you from a chippy? Used to be a regular at Toff’s,(still going there every once in a while) but Cannons is just better!!

The fish is cooked to order, food is presented in a cardboard box which prevents a soggy texture to the batter. Perfect, along with a slice of lemon & tartar sauce.

Excellent quality fish and chips, best ive had, excellent staff service, keep it up. Try the cod burger, and the fresh pies.

I visited Cannons on Wednesday. The restaurant part is now closed, although the takeaway was still there. Would have been nice if they’d have bothered to mention this on their website and saved me a trip!

Travelling back from a job, I decided to pick up fish and chips from this recommended fish and chip establishment in Crouch End. The food was served hot but the chips were rather minimal in size and the fish, was very skinny, despite asking for...

Perfect for lunch because in not busy like in the week end, cannon serve real fresh food.i ' ve a cod with fresh fanch fries .they are very polite.good service

I've popped in a few times and its comfortably the best fish and chip shop I've tried in London. Fish is decent, mushy peas don't ruin themselves with mint, but the sheer avalanche of chips you get with a large portion is why I keep...

Fish and chips were our national dish, particularly in the North and it is said, even tastier if wrapped in yesterday's news. Now pizzas and curries are vying for that top spot. Fish and chip shops could not compete and closed. I regretted the loss...

I love fish and chips and used to go to Toff's in Muswell Hill a lot but we find the fish greasy there so stopped going. We thought we would try Cannons and it is infinitely better, better fish, batter and chips and a relaxed...

Use this chippy regularly and never disappointed. Quality fish and other options including craft pies.Generous portions of chips. Be prepared to wait 10 mins if you want fish,everything cooked to order.

First time I bought the chips it was 2 pound it was the average portion but chips didn't taste good they gave me some leftovers Old chips might of been yesterday leftovers but it did not taste good Will not be going to the shop...

It's our second visit. Cod we had tried before was good. This time we had scampy, cod fish cakes, mushy pea and chips and enjoyed all. The fish cakes were the best of them. It would be even better if the salad that came with...

I had to wait exactly 1 hour for my takeaway on Friday night😕 The staff were doing their best but they couldn't cope.Very short staff. The lady taking the orders was telling all customers it would be 10 minutes for their order. This a complete...

Friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. The Fish was very good. The batter was nice and did not leave an oily taste after eating which is seldom. Chips were good but nothing out of the ordinary, The size of the side dishes were a bit...

Very tasty, fresh made chips, from good quality potatoes.Fish well done. The package keeps the food warm for long. Food a little too pricey. Staff not very very polite. I recommend that place in general.

Fish and chips are traditional and are available everywhere but they are not all as good as these. The cod was cooked to perfection in the lightest of batters and the chips were chunky and hot. No sign of the fat used to cook them....

I genuinely believed you couldn't get proper fish and chips in London...until I went here. I went to the takeaway section last night. The food is excellent! Really well priced (considering the Crouch End location) and the service is brilliant. I'll definitely return, absolutely fantastic.

An incredibly good example of what fish and chips should be. Not a soggy batter or slimey chip in site. Samuel Isaacs would be proud. I tried a few dishes and all were exemplary. The staff were all incredibly friendly and treated me and my...

We have been using this takeaway and restaurant for the last year. I can honestly say it's the best in the area by far. The fish is cooked to order and your given a waiting time, so giving a opportunity to do some quick shopping....

The takeaway fish and chips is very good. Lovely fresh fish, not greasy. Large helpings too. We have never been disappointed with the quality. The staff are very friendly, and the service is quick and efficient.

More expensive than you would expect from your local, the quality of food here makes it worth it. The scampi, cod and chips are all delicious and I recommend any of the pies. There are a couple of things that let this little gem down...

We have never eaten in the restaurant but have on several occasions been in to get a takeaway. We have always found the staff to be helpful and friendly and I couldn't fault them. The food itself is very good, probably the best fish and...

My husband and I popped into Cannons last Friday - it was busy! We hadn't booked so we had to wait half an hour which worked out great as we popped along to the local pub. After half an hour they called us to tell...

First problem was the totally clueless girl behind the counter whom didnt have an answer for any question I asked her. First question how much would we need for three small children and two adults lead to having 3 large portions of chips and 4...

So, this probably my favourite place to get fish and chips in London at least partially because you get a good deal for a lot of good food.

Ate with my boyfriend on a Friday night. Service was great food was great too! The kitchen team look really friendly. It is a pretty expensive meal, but once in a while we can visit as it's also good quality. Look forward to coming back.

I first discovered Pieminster Pies in Bristol nearly 10 years ago. They have come a long way from the south west and you can now find their pies in pubs, supermarkets and even fish and chip shops. Cannons in Crouch End isn't the cheapest but...

They are paying London rates .... so brace yourself to pay three times what you would in Blackpool or Burnley .... about £10.00 a head as I remember for takeaway BUT .. very good staff: great fish and chips. I think knowing the prices of...

THE GOOD A fantastic place, and of course great fish & chips. THE BAD For me this was over priced, but for you maybe not. so take this review purely subjective. I'm not tight when it comes to eating out, but value and quality need...

There aren't many things to make me jelious of the good folk of London N8 (Crouchend) The traffic is bad on a good day the parking is a nightmare everyday . Yet those oh so lucky few do have something most of us would kill...

They make the most delicious fat chips I have had in many a year. Their home made pies are also to die for.

A little pricey but don't let this put you off the fish and chips are excellent you would go a long way to beat the service and the quality of the fish

We have been to this restaurant a few time with friends, the atmosphere and decoration was very good , staff and service were great . We ordered starter such as deep fried caramari , scampi and whitebait. Then we had fish and chip and mushy...

And this is a very good example of a place that doesn't mess about. They just do Fish, Pies (and various standard chipshop dishes) really well. They took quite a while to open so teased us residents for a while but now are not only...

Can't say that I am an expert on fish and chips but I thought this joint is rather good. The size of the filets is very substantial and the batter feels light. There's a wine menu. Their chips can probably use a bit of updating.

What can I say about this wonderful place - Fish is lovely and freshly cooked as ordered none of the fish sitting in hot cabinets for hours. Chips fresh and thick. Also such a wide choice of fish avaialble. This has both a resturant and...

Popped in last Friday, offered a booth, it was quite busy. Had a fabulous meal - scampi fabulous, the boyf : haddock. Friendly service and delightful experience.

Very nice addition to Crouch End, the chips are wonderful and the grilled fish was superb. Generous portions and very important the nicest staff, helpful and kind. I have been several times with friends and Highly Recommend this Fish and Chip shop, reasonable prices and...

I love fish and chips and I must say this was a total let down. Poor service, over priced and I will not be going back. I used to live in crouch end and thought that I would support the local fish shop. The chips...

Have tried both the sit-down restaurant and take-away and had a good experience with both - though the restaurant meal was definitely the way to go (by the time I got the take-away home, it was pretty soggy, though I think that is the nature...

Cannons has won me over from my longstanding loyalty to a Mussel Hill chippy. I have only had take away and not yet eaten in the restaurant. The fish is fresh and delicate, the batter really light and the chips crisp on the outside and...

Went to the restaurant in early June....the food and experience was amazing...the fish was fresh with a lovely light batter...no grease whatsoever..and was big enough for 2 light eaters to share. Lovely thick and crispy fries. The staff in the restaurant were great and accomodated...

A proper fish and chips shop with a nice interior and friendly staff. Choice of how you want your fish, nice glass of wine.. what's not to like?

I popped in for supper before going to see a film nearby. On first impressions, my plate of cod in batter with lemon wedge and tartar sauce and bowl of chips looked impressive. The chips were a bit pale but excellent, really crispy on the...

On arrival was impressed with the decor, cleanliness and staff friendliness. We ordered calamari as a starter to share, followed by haddock, grilled salmon all with chips and mushy peas. The calamari were generous but needed a lot of salt from us to bring them...

I've been to this place a few times now and have had most of the takeaway items on the menu. The first few times I went, I couldn't get enough of the chips and really enjoyed the fish burger. However, I do feel like the...

We had dinner at Cannons and found the food to be exceptional. The fish is all fresh and the chips were hand cut. We also had a fresh mixed salad and bread rolls. We were warmly welcomed and the chef was helpful with information on...

Went there in middle of afternoon. Almost deserted. Fish was very poor. Ordered Haddock which was served in the most bizarre shape I have seen. Fish very flaky and full of liquid. Chips good. Very disappointing standard.

I have now been here twice in the last month. The main feature is a bright clean restaurant serving very good portions of starters and main course fish dishes. If you cannot finish your fish, they have a very neat cardboard box to take it...

One of the best fish and chips restaurants and takeaway I have ever been too. Excellent service, even on a busy Friday night. Food ready within 10 minutes maximum not to mention the freshness of the fish and the tastiness of the chips!

I'm glad this place opened up round the corner from me. I used to have to go all the way to Sorditch for some decent fish and chips.

I knew everything was cooked to order, so phoned in advance to reduce any waiting time. Incredibly this is not allowed- due to "capacity reasons!"So I had to wait 15mins in the cramped take away section unnecessarily! Toffs in Muswell Hill is also cooked to...

Great to have this place open here. I personally enjoyed both the fish and the chips. First and foremost the important thing is the freshness of the fish. Nice and plump sizes too and it seems that the fish is not pre-fried in numbers. Personally...

Second visit to Cannons and although there is a lot to like there is room to do better. As a venue it is very nicely decorated and furbished and seems to hit the spot being a traditional fish and chips with a little more refinement...

This is a warm, comfortable restaurant that serves food delicious enough to be worth visiting twice in a week. It's a massively welcome addition to Crouch End's mixed bag of restaurants and for me the pick of the new offerings. I don't eat chips because...

I have eaten in and gotten take away at this excellent new chippie in recent weeks and have not been disappointed. Portions are huge with fresh cooked fish, calamari, mushy peas and proper british chips all winning. The staff are friendly and the pricing really...

I love Crouch End, but I'm afraid Cannons doesn't add much to its eclectic range of restaurants and shops. Ok, what would I expect? Good fish and chips for a start - but they were only average. Quick service - quite frankly it was pretty...

I find many of the positive reviews about this restaurant surprising. I found the fish lacking in taste - I see from a rather defensive management response to another negative review that this is because they don't season their fish. Gordon Ramsay wouldn't be impressed!...

This is a new addition to the Crouch End restaurant scene and a very welcome one. The fish we had was perfectly cooked and the chips lovely and chunky. Plus, it's a nice, welcoming place to be. Like everywhere else round here, it isn't cheap....

Without a doubt our meal this evening at Cannons was by far the best fish and chips we have ever eaten. Fresh and flavoursome. All our meal options were prepared with care and to such a high standard. From the starter platter of calamari, white...

At last decent fish and chips in Crouch End. A well executed large cod in matzo and a small chips for £9.95. Cooked to order this took a little over 10 minutes - both were tip top and I'm pleased to say the chips were...

I was excited to see a traditional fish & chips restaurant open in crouch end. I was slightly perplexed to notice it never seemed full - I wondered if the health conscious residents of Crouch End didn't want to feed their kids fish and chips?...

Tried Cannons for the first time last week. We were positively surprised. The quality was good, the staff were accommodating, and we managed to feed 3 young children without any problems. They loved the calamari, prawns and fish and chips. Only ice-cream was available for...

Visited last week in Crouch End. Fish was absolutely amazing, just perfect. Chips however were average. Definitely room for improvement there. Decor was ok, nothing too fussy but also quite generic. Not really matching fantastic standards of Crouch End.

I've heard a lot of chatter about this place on Crouch End "appreciation" groups and so I wanted to give it a go. When I turned up there were about 10 other people waiting there. Most had been served and we're waiting for their order....

I went for dinner at Cannons Fish and Chips few weeks ago with my family and I've to say that I'm a fish and chips fan, visited many fish shops across London and the haddock from Cannons is just amazing... fresh and delicious. Love the...

We tried the take-away cod and chips from this new restaurant today. The chips were fine, but the fish was appalling - tasteless and overcooked, with a really slimy texture. We threw most of it away. Very disappointing.

Very light good batter. Large pieces of fish. Tried their haddock cooked beautifully. Not so keen on their chips although asked to be cooked crisply they are tasteless. House white very good quality . Little pricey

Thank You Cannons for offering us vegetarians a wonderful option of very tasty pies & mash/chips/gravy I come from a family who love Fish & Chips (Two Brothers & Toffs) but neither of them have anything yummy for vegetarians unless you fancy a greasy warmed...

I've rarely anticipated a restaurant opening as much as your Crouch End branch. But I have to say I was deeply disappointed. I've eaten in and had a takeaway. Whilst on both occasions the chips were magnificent, the fish was tasteless and overcooked - a...

After enjoying several takeaways from our local Cannons we were eager for the restaurant to open, and were not disappointed with our first visit. The waiter muddled the order but was eager to please, with the result that we had a free portion of scampi....

I tried Cannon's take away shop last week and I was impressed with how good and light the batter of the fish was and how tasty and fresh the chips were. A few days later I visited the restaurant with my child; the service was...

When we walked in we were eventually greeted by a gentleman who told us we could sit either at the front or further back. We chose to sit further back on a table for 2 when suddenly we were literally turfed out by an irate...
