Jack the Chipper in Tower Hamlets - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

My two sons and i are from the U.S. and wanted some great fish n chips. When asked for suggestions on fish n Chips restaurants, our uber driver suggested this place. So glad we followed his suggestion. Excellent quality food and big portions. Very clean restaurant. Charlie is a very affable host and a sharp businessman who focuses on the total satisfaction of the customer. I've tried their cod, fish cakes, and calamari. They're all good (especially the fish cakes). But my favorite is their awesome beef lasagna! My sons like their fish n Chips as well as the chicken pasta dish (della?). And their chips are great! Just make sure to save room for dessert! We Got sticky toffee pudding, chocolate cake, and banoffee pie. All excellent!! Again, Charlie and his staff are absolute rock stars. It was a blessing to dine in this establishment. Looking forward to our visit again.

Tolles authentisches Fish and Chips. Essen war super lecker. Personal richtig freundlich . Kann man nur weiterempfehlen. Fand ich klasse

Having just visited the Van Gogh experience round the corner, it was lunchtime and we were a bit hungry so we went on the hunt for something to eat. Jack The Chipper caught our eye so we thought we’d give it a go. We were greeted warmly and drinks were served quickly. I can be fussy about fish and chips but oh my. I am a huge fan of the East Neuk for a chipper but I have to say I think this was my favourite ever. Freshly cooked haddock and chips, moist, flaky fish and batter to die for. Chips spot on. T’other had the large haddock and also really enjoyed it. He was especially taken with the Hells Lager. I was nicely full, not stuffed, perfect portion size for me. The service was perfect, so smiley and friendly. I had a latte after as I needed a wee caffeine hit, again, just perfect. When we got the bill, out came a wee pile of Fruit Salad and Blackjack sweeties!! I haven’t had those for about 40 years! I was so chuffed about this that the waitress came back with a few more. And that is what makes this place, delicious food, people who are delighted to see you enjoy your food, have a nice experience and make you feel like you are valued. Definitely will return next time we come down to London!, I loved it!

The waitress told me that they didn’t have the drink I asked for even though I was staring right at it. Our main meals came before the entree’s and the fish was very average. Felt like they were rushing us and we nearly had a heart when we got the bill $56 Aud for very basic fish and chips and $42 Aud sercharge was just ridiculous.

The batter on the fish was soft and sort of chewy, the portion was on the small side, and the curry sauce seemed like it had been watered down because it was thin and pretty tasteless. The calamari rings were decent, but they were unseasoned and bland. Overall, not somewhere I'll be going back to.

Quite disappointing. Feels like they are taking a commodity product & overcharging for what you actually get. Best dish was grilled whole seabass (perfect), but the haddock & cod were both tasteless (batter very thick & dominated). Our entree of Fishbait was missed & when delivered after mains, surprisingly “fishy” & not enjoyable.

Fantastic. Very tasty fish and chips with a pot of tea. Great atmosphere in the restaurant, friendly staff and excellent service

Loved this place! We went back twice during our 5 nights in London.. I had cod n chips twice and my husband had the skate n chips and then the full English breakfast. All were very tasty. Cod was very fresh and tasty.. husband is the son of a fisherman so very particular about his fish.. nae jokes.. and he loved it! Service was great too.. and a nice wee touch with the old-school sweets! We'll be back next time we're in London

What a great find. The food was lovely and the staff couldn't have been nicer. I would recommend this place anyday of the week

Popped in for take away fish cake and chips and it was outstanding !! We were staying in a nearby hotel and had spotted the chippy on our way out from Aldgate East station . . decided to pick up late supper to take back to the hotel and we were delighted with our choice. Freshly cooked, super tasty, very substantial and great value for money 👍 If you are in the area be sure to visit . . the restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as take away 😋

This was simply the best fish and chips I have had in a long time. The portions were substantial, the quality exceptional, and the staff very friendly and efficient. The atmosphere was good, too. I would have no hesitation in recommending my friends and family to eat here. I bloody enjoyed it

Regular cod & chips at £15.90 which is served as kid's size portions. stingy on the chips and the cod is small yet classed as regular. They dont sell cans of fizzy drink - they sell it by the glass at £2.95 which is again watered down. To top it off, they charge service charge??? which proper chippy makes you pay service charge?? Tip if you want, but dont make ur customers pay service charge - this aint america. This place is too commercial - more for the tourists RIP OFF !!!

I visited this place on a snowy night to satisfy my Fish craving. The name is spin on name of World’s most infamous Serial Killer (Jack the Ripper). It’s located in Whitechapel area where Ripper crimes took place, so my expectations were low anticipating it would be a gimmicky place with no quality, but I was wrong. Right after I entered, I was welcomed by Charlie in a very enthusiastic way. His sense of humor and knowledge about English football triggered a very refreshing visit. I ordered large Haddock & Chips with a drink. The order was delivered by another server who was equally pleasant. As for the food, it tasted fresh, batter was crispy, seasoned and cooked to perfection. Prices are little higher than Fish & Chips places in the area, but I would always pay a little extra if the service is welcoming and friendly, as it contributes to a pleasant dining experience. I chatted with Charlie again and left with a smile and good mood. I would visit again just for the service. The food is good adds another perk.

Such a good spot! The staff are warm and welcoming, they'll make you feel right at home. They'll also make you one of the best fish and chips around. Only place I'll get fish and chips next time I'm in London

My husband got a fish & chips takeaway and they gave us old stale chips… worst fish & chips ever! Embarrassing! Just for them to save a few £ they gave us old chips!

It's always good when the food matches the hype, in this case, the name of the restaurant. The diner can choose several types of fish, with cod being the most frequently ordered. My husband and I shared a large order--the fish was cooked to perfection, but the star was the light, crispy batter! Chips (fries) are pretty good too. This is definitely a family-friendly restaurant so the ambiance is cheerful but not particularly elegant.

This place is a place filled with happiness. Smiling staff, lovely decor. Food is good, Cips are good.

Group of 10 ladies descended on this restaurant around 12 noon before catching train from Euston and needed quick service - that is exactly what we got and more. We ordered various breakfasts; chips; sandwich's and all 10 of us was very pleased with the efficient customer service; quality of food and very reasonable prices. I like my food so to take the time to give this review it needed to be good. Well done Jack the Chipper and thank you - we did catch our train on time!!!

Amusing name. Not a traditional English fish & chip shop. Modern decor perhaps aimed at tourists. Wide range of options on the menu. Good service. Licensed (limited range). Toilets.

Pleasant owner, great staff, superb breakfast, lovely location, layout and peaceful perfect well presented breakfast . Kitty was a star but whole team shined bright .

Had a halal full English, tasted great and very affordable. Service was also great from Kitty and rest of staff, very welcoming

Just arrived for a weekend away and stopped for breakfast. Quirky diner atmosphere with really good food. Service from Kitty and her colleagues was great.

Amazing service, affordable, fast, and delicious. Cansu was our server and was very sweet. Great place if in the area. Thank you!

Amazing food amazing service x Batu who served us was amazing xxx we love coming here good is so fresh 😍 🙌 ❤️ we will be back soon

Food was very tasty, especially English breakfast! And Kubra, our waitress was super nice. She was quick and very sweet

Excellent fish and chips. Loved the thick hand cut chips. Very attentive service. A but on the expensive side but worth it. We finished our main courses and while chatting the owner brought us a plate with sticky toffee pudding and told us “try it...

Came with a group of 5 friends for breakfast at we had a nice time. Good gluten free options for one friend and halal options for another. Also nice and spacious inside.

Great breakfast! Lovely server, polite, happy, quick to serve; everything you want from someone in this position. Restaurant is very clean, bright and trendy. Music is from 1960’s and before! Food was great, everything you want from a Full English! Thank you, we will be...

Great little find - fish was cooked to perfection. Portion sizes smaller than expected but enough to fill us up! Friendly staff.

Catchy name, looks like an American diner, food was ok to good, but we shouldn't expect anymore being so far from the coast, manager/owner was helpful and teaching staff the right way to deal with customers, bit disappointed when the bill came to £4 more...

I visited at a quiet time because of the free Wi-Fi for an online meeting, and the food and service met all my expectations. The food (cod and chips) was hot and fresh, and like the soft drink, well presented. Sauces were presented well and...

Overpriced staff are in your face all the time, nothing special, just regular fish and chips but cost a fortune

Amazing food, so much more on the menu than I expected. I had traditional fish and chips which was the best I’ve had in years. My wife had grilled plaice which came with mash and spinach and a side salad which she said was gorgeous....

This restaurant close to the start of our Jack the Ripper tour caught us with its name. It has much more than Fish and Chips, although we had one order that was great! As well, the pasta was delicious. The wait staff is extremely friendly,...

Fresh, delicious and fantastic food! Would highly recommend! Staff were all very nice and friendly. Nice place to visit for couples, families, friends etc.. I can’t wait to go there again and try all the other wonderful things on the menu.

The worst food handed to anyone fush and chips dried out like a piece of cardboard quater chicken a piece of grizzle . Overpriced rubbish rude staff a joke of a place

Great food and atmosphere. The staff were exceptional. The restaurant was recently renovated by the looks as well and looks good.

Service was friendly, restaurant appeared to be clean and well kept. Outside entrance very appealing and draws the customer end. These are the only reason the review is not terrible. The food came within 5 minutes of ordering it. That should have been my first...

Amazing fish and chips, so fresh. friendly staff and reasonable prices not expensive. Greatly recommended if you would around Greenwich.

I honestly cannot believe this place has such high marks. They used to cook to order but I got my food straight away, so I guess they don't do that any more. Also, in a chip shop, I don't expect to be given a withering...

We enjoyed the food. Great Service. Our Bill included a service charge of 12.5%. We witnessed the aftermath of another diner that had her belongings stolen. She did not notice until it was gone. Obviously she was distressed. This place is popular with tourists, so...

Friends and I visited on a recent jaunt to the East End. We were completely enamoured by this place! So much so that we visited three times before we went home! Beautiful decor, delicious food and the most friendly and attentive staff we could have...

Wonderful, attentive, friendly, helpful staff. Fabulous food freshly cooked with hardly any wait at all. Clean and inviting decor. Great value for money. Highly recommended.

Jack The Chipper delivers a clever name, and a good dining experience. Located in Whitechapel, where the original "Jack" did his dirty deeds, this little restaurant produces really good food in a relaxed, fun, somewhat quirky atmosphere. The prices here are quite reasonable, so enjoy!

I’ve been here three times and every time I have enjoyed my meal and dining experience. All the staff is kind, helpful and friendly. Kubura was very kind and helped me choose a dessert that was exactly what I needed. The fish and chips are...

Called in for breakfast. Perfect omelette and the full English was everything g you could want. Bright decor and friendly staff.

Best chicken pie I’ve ever had! Very friendly staff. Reasonably priced for London. If I return to London I’ll be coming back here!

The new restaurant location in Whitechapel looks excellent, the staff were friendly especially OZAN accommodated my takeaway order most of the time when I was there. Outstanding for Fish and Chips in East London for sure !!

Friendly, fast, delicious, this was a big hit for dinner with my 12 year old...a regular customer insisted that we include mushy peas, and they were very good!

Kubra was our waitress and she was very nice. The food was very good. It is a really nice Restaurant.

Looking for somewhere to eat before our Ripper tour, we found Jack the Chipper. The ambience is similar to a 50’s diner. There is a good selection of food on the menu other than fish & chips but we chose the latter & it was...

The shop looks great both outside and inside, the staff were friendly and the service was ok, nothing to complain about. I ordered fish, chips and curry sauce and it cost me £16.45. The good was fresh, piping hot, but sadly was very bland, the...

Food was good but overpriced.even soft drinks were expensive at £3.50 for a coke.i had placed a £ 5 note on table as a tip but took another look at my bill and discovered that I was charged a service charge.i quickly placed the fiver...

This was my first time in this chippie and definitely not the last. I had the lovely grilled bream and it was absolutely lovely. Very friendly staff looking after you.

Hi just to let you know I’ve been watching the shop for sometime but I’ve never had the chance to go in until a few days ago and I noticed they were very friendly. I think they are Turkish. I spoke to him about I...

Really good food, and great entertainment from Mehmet. Would absolutely eat there again. Lovely surrounding views on the bank to enjoy too if you decide to take away.

Excellent service and quality - the fish was cooked freshly and was ready in the exact number of minutes I was told. Very good quality and friendly service.

Such a lovely breakfast and they were more than happy to adjust for a vegetarian. The atmosphere is also the most chilled place you'll find in the area. The staff are all friendly and happy to help. We've had lunch here before that we loved...

Lovely friendly staff, food was good. Really friendly and kind to my 8 year old that did not want fruit in his water they had to replace twice. No bother for them though. Saw he needed extra ketchup we didn't have to ask. And gave...

Fabulous staff and food ! We had a lovely waitress who allowed us to sit in with our two small dogs. We had fish, fish cake, chips and curry sauce. Really enjoyed it and a really good price for central London. Great customer service and...

Best fish and chips my wife and I have ever had without question. The manager was super accommodating and we loved the decor with the music and albums on the wall. We loved it. 10 stars.

Went here for a fish and chips cone, as part of a jack the ripper tour. Food was decent, but the service was absolutely apauling. Our guide called 30 minutes ahead, and the servers still seemed surprised, and frankly annoyed, that we were there.. Food...

Went here on a guided Jack the Ripper tour. The waitress was extremely rude to all of us and ecpecially our guide. She yelled at us and dropped some of the food, picked it up and tried to serve to us. We weren't allowed to...

I found the fish dry and tasteless. The chips were ok. I hadn’t realised the name of this place until I bought the food. I wish I had noticed it earlier as I would not have bought from a place that finds amusement from a...

Stopped in for dinner before the Jack the Ripper walking tour. First off - the fish and chips were very good. Nice sized piece of crispy piece of fish with thick chips/fries. Nothing to complain about there. The decor of the restaurant just doesn’t fit....

Lovely staff in a retro-style fish and chip shop with good food. We had great waffles and coffee at breakfast and returned for fish and chips for dinner.

On Friday 17th March 2023. We had just arrived into London for 1800hrs for a 2 night stay. Staying at the leonardo Royal Tower bridge hotel , We had spotted the Jack The Chipper Restaurant as we drove along the High Street We were greeted...

Near to the Aldgate East tube station, the new and shiny “Jack the Chipper” is a reincarnation of the much smaller, older shop just down the road. There is an extensive menu, lots of seating and it has a 50’s American diner vibe. The staff...

Visited pre Jack the ripper walk. Cod & Chips £16.00. Peas £3.45 portion, curry £3.45 portion. Fish was lovely, fresh, lovely batter, all round very good. Chips were terrible! Warmed up & pre cooked (seversl times) and nasty. Brought the chips to the attention of...

Really disappointing visit to this fish and chip shop. I was given a menu with alcoholic drinks on it, however when I tried to order I was told alcohol was only available to order on weekends. Possibly the worst ‘chicken burger’ I’ve ever had. On...

Very friendly , kind staff and fantastic food ! ( really good quality , big portions and enjoyed it so much ) We had eaten burgers they were absolutely delicious and my picky eater boy rated the pasta 10/10 so we will definitely be visiting...

Food was amazing and fresh, staff very welcoming and friendly. Atmosphere great 🙌 Best fish and chips in the area. My favourite fish is place - try and see yourself Will definitely comeback again 😋

We were looking some place to eat before we go to Salvador Dali exhibition at The Boiler House. This was right after the tube exit. We didn't expect much and had chippies and something like Jack's poached egg with salmon (can't remember exact name). They...

Fantastic food really enjoyed the fish and chips. Staff really nice and friendly we had 3 meals all exceptional made to fell really welcome outstanding

Stylish eatery near Whitechapel Gallery and Aldgate East tube station. Designed to look like a 1950s American diner. They offer all kinds of deep-fried food from various fish & chips (cod, Dover sole, etc) variations to sausages, but also steaks. Prices are inflated though, and...

Hubby and I were very hungry and decided the menu looked great from the outside (english fisha nd chips). We went in, told we could sit wherever we wanted, mind you it is NOT a big restaurant. We ordered cod and chips, haddock and chips,...

Jack the Chipper is close Aldgate East tube station. The chip shop's name is a play on words and derives from the dubious past of Whitechapel. The restaurant is nicely decorated and the food was top notch. It is a friendly place and prices are...

My friend and I called in for lunch after a walk. The service was great and fish and chips were even better. Light crusted battered cod and chips for a reasonable price. Highly recommended.

I believe in the great British fish and chip shop, a staple of the working class. Jack the chipper is incredibly over priced. Saveloy and chips are £8.95, for a £1 sausage and 3 potatoes worth of chips. Mushy peas £3.45, comical. This is purely...

Easy to find location. Efficient, friendly service. Good options to choose fresh fish from. Portions are big... Only drawback is limited seating as this shop can become busy. Well worth a visit and recommended.

Had lunch. Regular Cod and chips with mushy peas and curry sauce. Perfect chips and wonderful fish. Quick friendly service. Thoroughly recommended.

Fantastic chip shop, amazing friendly service, all cooked fresh, not cheap but excellent and worth it, outstanding fishcake highly recommended

Has anyone see oily, dry chips, could not believe the potato was fasting and I complained and they replaced the chips, so disappointed. They stood over me, making my food cold to ask if am ok? No. Dried up end with oil saturated in them,...

My husband and I went in for a quick dinner as we had a short timeframe. Much to our surprise, the food was served quickly and the cod was really fresh and delicious! Ali, one of the workers, also served us free dessert at the...

Sat down in here and had veggie pasty and chips whilst my friend had cod roe and chips. Chips were excellent, proper big fat chip shop chips! Pasty ok but loads of pastry. Service was friendly and prompt. Prices reasonable

Lovely food. Staff very friendly. Would highly recommend for anyone within the Whitechapel area looking for a place to eat.

It’s food is mediocre . I got the fish and chips with a battered sausage. In a restaurant setting and the premium pricing, my expectations were a bit higher. Unfortunately, was a let down.

Very welcoming place, the fish is amazing and the chicken pies are even better. Not the biggest fan of Chips, yet I could not stop eating them. As a plus, the place's name is punny

I don't eat fish but fish and chips was a must do for the rest of the family. There were lots of different fish choices to have battered up, but the husband and kids stuck with cod and haddock which they both loved. I had...

We came as part of a food tour and the food was amazing! I definitely recommend them! Also staff was very friendly and welcoming

Having just flown in from Hong Kong after 3 years due to Covid restrictions was so excited to have some proper fish and chips. So disappointed with the attitude of the staff. We didn't get the sachet's of vinegar we asked for and told we...

This is some of the best local food. It’s amazing in every aspect. Food is great. The interior is beautiful and the service was amazing.

BEWARE of this place. They tried to push old food in the cabinet (sausages, pies) onto me saying they didn’t have Fish And Chips in the cabinet. Then when I said I was a local and regular they suddenly said they could cook them. More...

Several reviews cited over pricing and I found out myself. Felt peckish so went for a Saveloy, it was beyond bland, tasteless, took one small, threw it in the bin, it was that bad, price £2.95. I will never ever be going into this establishment...

£15 for haddock and chips, only it was cod not haddock, obvs thought I wouldn’t be able to tell the difference . I’m from Blackpool so I know my fish and chips and these were awful for the price. More attention to quality is needed...

Very poor customer service. The initial girl server approached me and was very professional and cordial. The guy behind the counter, on the other hand, seemed annoyed and visibly snappy with everything I said. It’s a shame because the food was okay, but I won’t...

Maybe I went too early or they were having an off day but my experience was definitely ruined by the owner (?) having an argument with the server about accepting foreign coins. The food was fine though definitely overpriced for what you get. Note that...

We were a table of 6.This place did not disappoint. I ordered fish and chips- the portion was huge and tasted very good. Service was fast and we did justice to the food. I do recommend this place if you are in the vicinity.

A solo dinner while working in the area. First, the caveats: the prices here are high, the portions aren't huge, and the name is in questionable taste. You'll spot most of this up front, and it all may well ring "tourist trap" alarm bells; and...

Delicious food, not stodgy or greasy. Spotlessly clean. Great customer service. Relaxed atmosphere. Lots of music memorabilia on the walls of the day which is fascinating to read. Family run restaurant putting customer experience first.
