Kennedys Fish and Chips in Islington

We had a great dinner at Kennedy's yesterday with a group of 44. The food and the service was great! It's hard to serve food to such a big group but the staff did a fantastic job! I really recommend this restaurant for having Fish & Chips with a large group.

We came on a coach trip to see the London lights and had supper here, 52 of us! The restaurant was efficient at serving us all and with a smile too! Excellent supper which included tea or coffee. Good clean toilets.

We were part of a large coach party, we’d visited Greenwich markets, then took a river cruise, followed by a look at the Christmas lights. Finished the evening with a fish / chip supper. I think the shop did really well to serve so many coach customers with delicious hot food. Started with a glass of prosecco, then fish n chips with mushy peas, then tea or coffee, then a slice of cheesecake. Nice shop, friendly staff Wow – well done.

I ordered a takeaway, large cod, in person. The operative repeated the order, large cod and said it would take 8-10 minutes. 15 minutes later the order appeared and I went home looking forward to the fish supper. 1st bite and I knew the fish was bad. The fish itself was very salty (not the batter) which meant the cook tried to mask the rot with salt. Not only that it was haddock and not cod, which makes me suspect he had a rotten haddock which he should have thrown away instead of serving it to an unsuspecting customer. Before that I was such a great fan of Kennedys, both eat in and take out, both Goswell and Whitecross. But you know, after the experience on Monday 6 November, I vow never to eat at Kennedys again.

bestens Fisch & Chips Restaurant in London Top Service Top Qualität Top Preis Leistung Ein Muss für alle Fisch & Chips Liebhaber

Nothing but brilliant- made a point of saying thanks to the chef and a young lady who was serving as it was only 2pm. What an amazing chippy in the middle of Angel/Islington. Taste and potion was just perfect- thanks

Vi letade för att hitta den bästa fish and chipsen i närområdet och fann Kennedy´s. De gjorde oss inte besvikna. På riktigt en av de bästa F&C:s jag någonsin ätit. Perfekt friterad torsk, goda tillbehör – kan rekommendera den sötsalta gurkan – och inte minst mycket trevlig personal.

I was really good, food is perfect and waitress was very nice with beautiful smile. We really recommend this restaurant

We lunched here as part of a tour group. We arrived early but that didn't faze the staff. Lunchtime drinks while we waited for our fish and chips were served promptly and are very reasonably priced. Fish and chips were perfectly cooked. Thank you to smiling staff for the warm welcome.

I visited this restaurant with a coach party on 14th February seeing sights of London finishing with a visit to Kennedys for supper. We were assured by the coach driver this was the best place in london for fish and chips. What a dissapointment, do not know what fish we were eating but it was not cod,very watery, the mushy peas were cold. Worst fish and chop shop I have ever eaten in.

I recently visited Kennedys of Goswell Rd and had a really excellent meal of grilled salmon with salad and a few chips. Everything was great and the chef [ SOKOL ] who cooked this meal, followed my wishes exactly and he should be applauded for his low-key approach regarding asking if everything was OK, unlike some chefs who shout loud enough for everyone in a restaurant to hear, and putting the customer in the position of having to agree through embarrassment. Sokol was a great example of how to be discreet and genuine, and along with BIBI who gave the best possible service in an equally discreet and very genuine way, both deserve to be greatly applauded. It is staff such as these two that make this restaurant what it is – great.

Already posted a negative review re not being able to contact the Barbican and Goswell Rd branches prior to ordering on Deliveroo re my dietary requirements.. There was a response from the owner stating there has been issues with their telephone lines, but several weeks later, nothing has changed!!!

in september 22 to early October we went to this restorant and the service and attitude by certain staf was disgusting it seems that one womem was doing most of the work and others were doing very little and ignoring cusomers who wanted attention. the shaved head little chef seemed to do nothing but walk around the restorant and ignore customers He would then walk back in and say its nothing to do with me I dont work in the restorant and just walk off very rude there was lots of shouting from the kitchen by this man customers were complanning about the matter and the one women doing most of the work was rushed of her feet trying to manage. some customers just walked out or didnt come in staf like this little chef whoose cooking is not good over cooked and hard and sometimes cold, have ruined this place other chefs seem ok so many customers were saying they would not be comming back as there are other fish and chip restaurants in the surounding streets

We rocked up before 12pm lunchtime on Wednesday 23rd March. There was 14 of us, it wasn't too busy and the staff were very accommodating and fixed the tables so we could all sit together. The service was impeccable and attentive. The food was amazing and considering there was so many of us it came pretty quick and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. We will definitely come back again. Love this place ❤️ 💕 😍

When I visited I was greeted near the door by the manageress, BiBi who was exceptional in her dealing with many clients at the same time and with the quality of her service. The food was hot and correct, it was fresh and extremely tasty and i could see BiBI, when not dealing with a custmer, walking around keeping an eye on everything and dealing with matters as they arose, just like a head waiter would do. This was enormously encouraging as it made me feel that I was really being looked after, which I was ! Just before I left I heard others stating as they left that they would definitely come again, after being said goodbye to by BiBi. I shall now make a point of going there whenever I'm around to repeat the pleasure of the fabulous food and equaly fabulous service given by BiBi and always accompanied by laughter and a giggle.

The best fish and chips I have ever had and the staff were also very very friendly I will certainly be going back

Simply the best fish and chips in London and Billy the owner is a true gentleman would recommend to everyone that loves fresh fish and chips

Visited Kennedy’s last night with a coach trip e route to the theatre. The food and service was amazing and the staff coped well with a large party..

Love the quality of food here. I was served by a lady called Daniella and her customer service is brilliant. Defiantly becoming a regular customer!

After recently buying a flat in the area we have only just become aware of Kennedy's. I have to say we'll be back! I am very much looking forward to my next take-away and will certainly try the restaurant soon.

賞を取っていると聞き訪問。アジア人はあまりいなかったのですが、日本人はよく来るらしく店員さんも親切でした。フィッシュ&チップスとビールとサラダを注文しましたがかなりのボリュームで、美味しくて満足です。タクシー利用をオススメする場所ですがコスパも良く満足です。また行きたいかも。

Siempre una alegría y lamer los dedos bien. . . ; eso es tanto figurativa como literalmente. La salsa de limón y ajo que tenía, con mi porción más generosa de calamares a la parrilla regulares, era tan buena que lamí y recogí el resto con mis dedos retrasando nuestra partida por unos muy felices 10 minutos. Incluso después de años de felices visitas, el encanto del buen pescado, el excelente servicio y las cosas simples bien hechas no pueden dejar de deleitarse. Muy recomendable; y para cualquier turista por ahí, la mejor manera de ver Londres es lo mejor. Gracias a todos una vez más, nos vemos pronto. Catherine

Food was excellent and the service was fantastic. Great choice of food and a lovely bottle of wine to wash it down. Overall a great experience.

Large local place. Great trade away or sit down. Freshly fried freshly delivered. Your choice. Do grilled stuff for healthy options.

Great fish and chips! Lunch menu was really a good deal. Service was excellent very friendly. Everything was very clean.

Io ed il mio ragazzo abbiamo deciso di assaggiare vari fish and chips durante la nostra permanenza a Londra e questo di Kennedy’s è stato veramente fantastico! La frittura non è unta e il pesce è davvero saporito, corposa e non eccessivamente spessa la panatura. Buonissima anche la salsa tartara. Il prezzo, poi, è davvero onesto per una buona porzione. Promosso a pieni voti!

Alcuni amici mi hanno portato a mangiare il più buon merluzzo fritto che io abbia maiassaggiato!Location semplice , ma personale molto gentile e sorridente.Qualità e prezzo moooolto convenienteDa non perdere questo locale quando si va a Londra.

I ordered the spécial of the house fish and Chips. The batter was nice and crisp and this part was really good. The chips were good too. However, once I cut into the fish piece I was disappointed with the fish texture. It was mushy and a bit soggy. Was the fish piece frozen before putting it in the batter perhaps ? I also ordered the calamari and same there. Batter was great, but inside was okay.

Great fish and chips on a par with Chez Fred in Westbourne Service was very friendly Would make it a weekly visit

Allez-y les yeux fermés si vous désirez déguster un excellent Fish and Chips et à prix abordable. Très bon accueil et cadre sympa.

The food is fantastic. The halibut in the garlic butter sauce was outstanding. Even my wife’s hamburger was one of the better burgers I’ve ever had. I was just telling her that I would love to eat there again before we leave on Tuesday. Good job, keep up the good work.

Un posto tradizionale e caratteristico cibo fresco e buonissimo

We really enjoyed like all the times ;) Excellent food. Best Fish&Chips; and wonderful grilled Salmon

Accogliente locale vicino Old Street ottima alternativa al solito pub. Ottimi e abbondanti piatti di pesce , personale gentilissimo, ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo . Consigliatissimo

We came on a coach trip from Weymouth,the Fish and chips were excellent as was the service.

My second experience of this restaurant and although the first had been ok, this was outstanding. A great welcome and an excellent meal. Lovely fish cakes to start, followed by wonderful, traditional Fish and Chips. Very tasty, really fresh and attentive service from the staff throughout the meal. Would definitely recommend.

Fish and chips veramente buono ed abbondante, prezzo alla portata, merita davvero Il posto è molto spazioso

Food and service at Kennedy’s on goswell road is always good can’t complain. Great food always hits the spot.

Great fish & chips. Really fresh. Great service and price. Well worth a visit. Take away part next door. Excellent choice in pies.

Had read good reviews but was a bit underwhelmed. Service was ok, not bad but not great. Starter of Tempura King Prawns as ok but the main course cod and chips was not great. Not sure how long it had been cooked for but it wasn't piping hot and I suspect the kitchen was busy with takeaway orders. My fault for not sending it back but I had limited time. Would not return in a hurry.

We went here on recommendation from our cab driver for the “best fish and chips in London” and we were not disappointed. Food was hot and fresh. Service was friendly and attentive and prices were very affordable. We will be back!

Purely Ended up here as part of a coach tour. we Almost certainly would never have chosen this location under our own steam. However sometimes these hidden gems end up being well worth finding. This is definitely one of those. Fairly unassuming from the outside, but surprisingly spacious inside. All the staff were polite and efficient, managing to serve a whole coach load unbelievably quickly. And I can honestly say that I have never been asked anywhere else "are your meals OK? If you need more chips just ask" superb service!! Would almost certainly return.

Went there with colleagues and had a good time. The food was delicious and service was good. I had the cod and chips, the sauces were good too. Will come back to try other items on the menu.

Proven as one of my best places to eat authentic Fish & chips including haddock & skate. It's clean and has a separate area for those that would like to eat seated and served on a table just like a normal restaurant. The service is quick and they have good wine too!

Das heimische Mittagessen (fish&Chips;) war sehr gut und die Bedienungen sehr freundlich. Wir werden wieder kommen!

Thought i would grab a quick takeaway of cod and chips, baked beans, gherkin and a buttered roll. When i got home i couldnt believe how small the cod was, the gherkin was no bigger than my thumb, half a portion of beans and a buttered roll so stale, you couldn't even bite into it. Very disappointed. Should had stuck to my local

Speachless! So tasty, fresh and delicious! The best fish and chips ever! Highly recommended! You must try! God service too!

30 de nosotros en un viaje en autocar fuimos a Kennedy para una cena de pescado y papas fritas

The entire meal start to finish was excellent, the fish succulent, well battered and not greasy and the chips proper hand cut chips which were just divine!! I cannot recommend this place enough!!! Can't wait for next visit.

Capitati per caso , interessante sia la proposta sia il cibo. Piatti di pesce abbondante, ben cucinato , l’insieme gradevole, vale una visita

We really enjoyed it nice portions and prices as well as good food. Every time again! Especially the fish and chips as well as the cider was bery good.

Vino para nuestro aniversario, es un restaurante de mariscos con los pies en la tierra, muy amigable, con excelente comida a precios bajos.

Sono stata ieri sera qui con la mia famiglia e abbiamo trascorso una piacevole serata. Abbiamo ordinato il menù da 3 portate (comprendente anche un drink) a 20 sterline, cibo buonissimo e porzioni abbondanti.

We went to this place on Sunday 28th July at 2pm. We had booked a table over the phone, but the table was too much near by the door(and its 18 degrees outside). Since the restaurant was quite empty we asked for another table and were seated. Then a waitress ask the other one what was the matter. She said because they were too much near the door. Then the waitresses started to laugh on us saying loudly and laughing « please open the door » while going inside the kitchen! We decided to simply leave this restaurant. There is thousands of restaurants in London who care about their customers! Obviously not this one!

One of the best fish and chips places in the city! The portions were massive and everything was delicious. Will definitely visit again

We were received very well, thanks Elsa. The space is large and very clean. We ordered fish and chips, sea food rice, and fish cake. Everything was delicious.

Have visited the takeaway in Goswell road on many occasions over the years. This is the third time that I have felt the need to review on Trip Advisor. Ordered cod & chips and asked also for a buttered roll of which there was none available. I requested bread & butter as I had been advised by management to do previously but again there was none. I requested that they get some from the restaurant but was told they had bread but no butter. This was related to me without asking the restaurant part of the business.

Really fantastic food and great service. Strongly recommend the goujons. The rock salmon looked great too.

Very nice restaurant, brilliant service, great food, lots of choice Andrea is very nice, professional and efficient

Artemis you are the best waitress Thank you for the food. Food was brilliant, service was great. Thanks again

I really like the fish and chips, the taste was so original! And i also tried the garlic bread, and it’s really worth to try as well! Overall, it’s amazing!

Both the food and the service was excellent. We all head fish and chips. I would recommend this place for a good English food experience

While in London we heard a lot about this restaurant so we headed there for lunch, service provided by Andrea was super nice, fast, and the food was just delicious! It’s worth the time we traveled in the tube to get there. 5 stars.

Sono venuta da Kennedy’s per provare il famoso fish and chips. Non sono rimasta delusa, il cibo è buono, i prezzi anche, e le porzioni sono davvero grandi, non siamo riusciti a finire il piatto! Ci siamo fatti fare una doggy bag, il personale è stato molto gentile.

The best Fish&Chips; I have ever had, crunchy and you should try the crispy chips, my friend had the hole squid and it was absolutely Amazing. The staff was so lovely especially Elsa, thank you Kennedy’s for this magnificent dinner. Definitely will be a regular customer

I live in Turkey. I ate fish and chips in there. Fish was different to me. Like nugget. Chips were not different. But delicious. If you go there you should prefer take away because it is chaper than seated

Nice fish and chips. Good service but the fish could have arrived faster. Other than that, no complaints

We’ve been greeted by the waitress when we arrived, everything clean and nice. Andreea was very nice and served us at the table. The food was very good and a lot (very big meals)

Fish and chips were piping hot, perfectly fresh, melt in your mouth tasty. Mushroom and steak hot pie was flaky delicious pastry that reminds you of your own grand mum’s baking. Super friendly staff and clean relaxing atmosphere!

Nous avons pris des fish and chips (12 livres et mega portions). Il y a des menus enfants très bon marché. Une adresse à recommander!

Excellent service and good is always great! Me and my family have been going there for years it’s my 90 year old Nan’s favourite place to go!

Tres bon restau de poissons frits

Can here with no prior plans for lunch on a Sunday. There were tables available too. Staff were friendly who offered a lunch set menu that we had. 2 courses for just over £15 including a drink that I thought was a good offer. For starters I had fried tiger prawns they were delicious and meaty. And main shortly arrived after leaving a reasonable gap in between. Very well presented. Though I wasn’t informed that my side of capers were going to be placed on my skate as I would’ve preferred them on the side. It made it slightly soggy. But it was very nice. I had 50/50 of salad and chips. And a good portion I thought. I had Diet Coke to drink and that was a good size glass. Atmosphere was child friendly for my 3 year old son and welcoming. I def recommend this restaurant. You can also take food away too. I will def visit again to try something else. Thank you.

Arrived with a pre-booked coach party of over forty people. We were served quickly and efficiently with beautiful cod with a nice crispy batter, good chips which were not greasy and mushy peas. Good portions, excellent standards, friendly and attentive service, clean surroundings. I would certainly go back.

Sapendo che appena arrivata gradisco cenare con fish and chips la scelta non poteva essere migliore. Cucinato in modo eccellente sia il mio che gli altri piatti come il pollo, accompagnati da salse squisite. Il locale è semplice ed accogliente, il servizio rapido ed il personale gentile. Ci tornerò di sicuro.

Great choice, great prices and totally yummy – Kennedy's never lets me down whether eating in or taking it home

Working in the area for 2 days and came across this little gem by chance, enjoyed it that much the 1st night, went back the next night.

if you must have a grease fix to snap crackle and pop your arteries, order Deliveroo and dine in the comfort of your hotel room Do not visit this joint where the head chef is lazy, rude and snarky, and his attitude permeates through to otherwise decent staff. To dine out, visit the chip shop around the corner in King's Square which is classier. Kennedy's has the tile wals of a converted Victorian toilet, The other establishment in King's Square has real table cloths. You might have to wait longer for a table, but it's worth the wait.

We were looking for fish and chips restaurant and found Kennedys of Goswell Road. This place has a robust menu of not only fish and chips, but steaks, burgers and seafood items. Had a fantastic dinner here. wee came with a party of 6 and had items ranging from bangers anf mash, whole fish, prawns, and fish & chips (of course).

I love this place, fabulous food at great prices, amazing staff who make the experience so worth while! best fish and chips in London!!!

A wide range of choices to choose from. The goats cheese and butternut squash pie is superb just to add.

Really were the best cod and chips I have had. I was part of a party of about 28 and we all arrived at the same time, tea and coffees ordered and then the piping hot fish and chips arrived. Excellent light batter, flaky moist cod and real chips, not messed around with, just hot, golden, crisp and fluffy inside. Delicious. I don't like mushy peas so left those. Great mug of tea too.

Had large cod and chips. It was fine but based on reviews I was expecting much better. Chips were pretty poor, I didn't't even finish them. Little bit floury and rectangular rather than square. Fish was better, white and flaky. Batter was crispy but a little thin and for a large the fish was quite small. 11 quid including a soft drink. There is one table to eat at inside.

My wife and I went to Kennedy's to get fish and chips on our last night in London. She had cod and chips and I had haddock and chips. Both were good. Had mostly with vinegar and salt, but tried the tartar sauce which was very tasty and had a strong dill taste. The fish had a nice crisp batter and was cooked nicely. The chips were not as crispy as I like, but my English wife enjoyed them.

Absolutely lovely place nice staff great food and licienced Just to finish of really had a lovely time when a group of family Went in there the staff were polite and food was wonderful

El lugar tiene una decoración agradable y es bastante espacioso.

if you haven't checked out Kennedys its well worth a visitreally nice fish and chips plus lots off other choices on there menu.:)
