Kennedy's of Goswell Road in Islington

The Best fish and chips in angel area! They always fry their chips and fishes in the fresh oil. Fishes' batter wass crispy and thin, fish was cooked well done. The most important thing was fish and chips weren't like sponge 🧽 (it wasn't oily)

There was a lady/ manager there who refused to provide me extra ice as i had a can of juice with me. Which was i drinking before going there as it was a sudden plan. One of their waitresses came to me and i asked Ice from her also for the Coke i bought from them, the manager behaved so badly and rudely with that waitress she started crying that made me feel guilty too. The whole thing was so unexpected and it seemed to me the manager was actually rude, We were 10 people, all of us ordered fish and chips and drinks for everyone, She still did this just because i had a can of juice with me.

Authentic Fish & Chips! The one where when you leave, your t-shirt will be stained with vinegar and ketchup. The fish is fresh, almost still alive on the plate, the breading as light as a cloud of milk and crunchy as a crumble. A real experience: you go in French, you leave with a London accent!

they are not true to their time

The food is delicious - whether it’s fish or chicken. View from the window side is beautiful. The place is quite spacious.

Katsu curry went above and beyond all expectations

A very good fish and chips and a delicious pie to finish off a pie call in style. Thanks to the very friendly waitress. Looking forward to it!

Very delicious fish and chips and delicious homemade desserts.

Fantastic food! - we had a take away for 8 people and everything was fresh and cooked to perfection. The service is friendly and efficient. Great value for money with generous portions. We will definitely be back.

Freshly cooked seafood with nice dips. Service is warm and quick. Vibe is very homey and you can see customers are local which is a good sign.

Wonderfully crispy fish! Just the way I like it! Excellent service, the staff was friendly and attentive. Had the halloumi as an appetizer and it was delicious as well.

Owners are great and very hospitable. Food is some of the best fish and chips you will ever try

Still the best fish and chip and pies in London. The prices are great and the service is excellent, you can’t go wrong.

Valued for the money. I think it's an underrated fish and chips restaurant. One of my favourite in the area! They have a proper sitting area and music licence. Tasty food and very good prices! Highly recommended.

Sunday evening, in a clean place with a professional and responsive welcome. On the menu: two fish and chips, sparkling water and two split pea purees. Eight customers present. The whole thing was, subjectively, delicious and provided a pleasant feel good sensation.

Amazing fish and chips! My friend recommended it as the best fish and chips in London and she was right

One of the best fried seafood places in London. Chips also great.

Good, fast and cheap. Highly recommended

Really good value for money. Well prepared small portion of cod with great chips and a lovely mug of tea all served with a smile. Very clean loos!

Relatively expensive place where the fish was good but the chips were soggy. The service was quite disinterested.

Food not started 20 minutes after order confirmed online- quite confrontational when I pointed out this is bad service

Arrived at 9:36 and was told i was to late for a cod and chips for take away! Change the opening times on your website if you shut early

I love everything about this place. I was looking specifically for GOOD fish and chips and I got GREAT fish and chips. The service was fantastic and the restaurant itself was super cute on the inside. This is definitely getting logged in the “go to” places for London. My husband loved the burger as well.

A perfectly decent fish and chips far from the tourist traps of London. The place doesn't look like much but is very pleasant, no crowds and no hubbub. A decent kitchen for the price, it's not luxury but it's more than enough. I recommend if you are passing through

Announcing that it closes at 9 p.m., we show up at 7:20 p.m., people are having dinner and we are told that they are closed. Who are we kidding? Although recommended by a local, we will go elsewhere and do not recommend this experience. / following the establishment’s response You must have the wrong person because we did not eat in your restaurant. You didn’t offer us takeout, the girl just said “Sorry, we’re closed. »

Derek and Angelika, the staff serving us, were very polite and helpful. Fish & Chips were really good. The cheese cake not!

Top three fish and chips that I love to go to when I'm in London

You did us all proud yesterday coach party Jan & Ray from Broomfield coaches brilliant thankyou 💯🥂

Large cod and chips with cup of tea £13.95 lunch special

Nice sit down fish and chips. Still very high quality based on today's visit.

Nice and handy for the b&b where I was staying. Very fast food service. Pleasant atmosphere.

I popped in (spur of the moment thing) Wed (11th Dec). Really enjoyed the Haddock, fresh, good portions and reasonably priced. It was quite busy but I arrived just before a large party descended, despite this, service was attentive. Will definitely return.

I bought a large fish an chips from this place the service was very good but I paid £27 for basically for 2 small cods and chips that’s ridiculous wouldn’t recommend shop if your on a budget and also the fish was very raw from the inside threw the food away I only gave 3 stars for the chips that’s probably the best chips I’ve had but for the fish I would say the worst !

Large portion Very fresh Boiling hot

Came here as part of a coach trip. Food hot and arrived promptly, but appeared to be frozen fish and chips, tasted bland. Portions ok in size. What you'd expect from a restaurant chain. No decaffeinated options for hot or cold drinks which was disappointing. Service good .

You won't find better chips anywhere - they're amazing! But how about some vegan options to go with them? A vegan fish alternative??

A pleasant fish and chippery with ample seating. The food is delicious and freshly cooked. There is a chippy if you want to take away. Highly recommended.

Enjoyed a super meal during our coach trip visit to London. Thank you.

The fried potatoes and fish cutlet are both delicious and have a local atmosphere. It's very nice to have a quiet drink on a weekday lunch.

Very delicious cod. Every time we go to London we come to Kennedy's for dinner. In addition to the fish and chips, the roast chicken is also spectacular. Very large portions.

Everything was perfect! Thank you from Spanish girls!

Excellent food, nice staff. Always a pleasure coming here

Really nice spot, Can 100% recommend

I’m so glad I stopped here! I had fish and chips and a meat pie left for my main English dishes I wanted to try, and this place popped up. I told the lady what I was looking for and she said she’d do the fish and chips and add what we meat pie I wanted. I asked for her suggestion and she said the minced meat and onion, and it sounded good to me. When the food came out, it looked amazing. The breading on the fish was light and crispy, and the fish was flaky and delicious. The chips (fries for my fellow Americans) were thick cut and crispy. The meat pie was my favorite. The way the bake it in the dough, and the perfect texture offset by the flavorful filling was just fantastic. I also ordered their baby squid as a recommended appetizer and it was meh. Not worth the price. Just chewy and flavorless. My main problem overall is the lack of seasoning. I think it’s a general English thing, but the food just doesn’t have seasoning on it. I was told later by a couple friends that you add your own salt and pepper to taste. I’m Hispanic and I’m used to the core 4 being in almost all dishes (aside from additional seasonings), onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. But the food was cooked to perfection and delicious (except the squid, not worth the cost). Definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for meat pies or fish and chips!

If you're partial to fish and chips, then you simply must try Kennedys. Definitely one of, if not the, best I've ever had the pleasure of enjoying 😀

It was so delicious and the portion was large so I was full.

I’ve been coming to this Kennedy’s for a long time now 10 years plus and think it’s the best chips in London having sampled many different ones from all over. I visited today and was blown away by how nice the chips were, so potatoey and non greasy. They simply were delicious and I had to call them to tell them. Also, the staff are always polite and friendly and provide speedy service. Thank you Kennedy’s 🙏🏼👏🏼

Bought a fish butty today........ Little mini dry fish, just awful! Sorry guys I think that's the worst fish butty I have ever had in my life No pictures went straight in the bin

Friendly service, large portions, tasty food. I strongly recommend it!

Nice service and very delicious food.

Great choice for the famous fish and chips! Restaurant frequented by Londoners.

Best service ever best fish and chips ever wonderful apple pie a wonderful experience.

It is a very good place to eat a menu of the day. They have a vegetarian option, a Katsu that you can choose with Halloumi and it is GREAT. The price is good, there is a discount if you take it to go. I would return!

Fish and chips are a low-priced food, so it seems more cost-effective to choose a local restaurant that is rustic but popular in the area rather than eating it at a fancy restaurant. They say fried shoes are delicious, but I had fried fish and potatoes, so they couldn't be delicious haha. But then again, a restaurant that doesn't taste good is really bad, but this restaurant has delicious portions and the cod is fried very deliciously, so I enjoyed it. Even if I ordered the regular size, it was too big, but other people even ate one large size by themselves. Anyway, it was a delicious and great meal😁!

Chips and fish was fresh 😋 staffs was nice, always have a friendly face. Quick on service, uniform clean, fingers nails short and clean. Counter top clean. Table and chairs always clean so you can sit to wait for your foods 😋 or eat in. Menu easy to read for what you want to eat. From small portions to extra large. Takes card or cash.

Great restaurant. Fast and friendly service. Excellent fish dishes in the classic English style. Adjusted price.

My 95 year old mother and I are both disabled and tried ordering a portion of chips from Kennedy's Goswel Road via Deliveroo.... Kennedy's catagorically refused to fulfil our order because we dared to complain more than once about the chips we'd received in the past.... What we received on more than one occasion contained many tiny dregs less than one inch in length and several had black spots which had to be discarded, so why not complain.... It was very late and Kennedy's is nearby which is why we placed the order.....Order was cancelled and Instead, ordered from an alternative restaurant and was completely satisfied....Also discovered much to my surprise, Kennedy's Food Standards Agency hygiene rating is only 3 out of 5 which would have been a deal breaker had we known!!!...

very good experience nice place good cooking good Italian rosé reasonable price impeccable service

I ordered on Too Good To Go 3 hours before collection time. At the time of ordering there were 5 bags left, when I checked back to get the code there were 2 left. Collection time was 20:45, I arrived at 20:50. Once I got there I was told there was only saveloy, leek pie and cheese and onion pastry left, so I said "I'll take the saveloy please", I was handed the saveloy and expected the chips to come next, nope! I was told there's no chips left... Excuse me? You knew you sold the bags from the app and people would be arriving to collect, why the hell did you not put enough chips aside for the people you knew would be coming!? Once I expressed my annoyance I was told I would be given "free chips the following day", it's no bloody good the following day is it!?!. The surprise bag is suppose to be the value of £7, how the hell does saveloy amount to that! I ordered this for my dinner and that's what I'm handed from a CHIP SHOP! ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. It was ordered well in advance for you to make sure there was enough. I will not be returning.

Excellent chip shop with friendly staff.

Great Fish 'n chips and saveloy. Beer served with meal: what more could you want?

Simply the best Fish N chips of London!!

Very pleasant atmosphere, staff was attentive without being intrusive, and the food/drinks were fantastic.

Fish and chips are crispy and really delicious... This is a local restaurant! In general, haddock tastes better than cod.

Great fish chip shop friendly staff

My rock salmon (huss) was excellent, my wife had skate with mashed potato lovely

Good food, quick and efficient service

I went there because the ratings for fish and chips were good, but maybe because it's a local restaurant, people kept coming in and getting takeout even when I was there. The turnover rate was good, so even though it was taken out of the display case, the fries were freshly fried and crispy. In the UK, they only season with salt and vinegar, so it seems like it's good to enjoy the natural taste of fried food... but as a Korean who likes to eat everything soaked in sauce, oh! Ketchup! ah! Tartare! It's a taste that makes you shout out...^^ The reason why I fell in love with fish and chips was because the sweet fish and chips I tried at a Hawaiian restaurant in Jeju Island were so delicious, and now that I eat fish and chips in my hometown, ah! I am Korean after all! I guess I have to go to Jeju Island again! I wanted to. Be sure to try the authentic fish and chips here, and try the Dalgogi fish and chips from Jeju Island. And please answer which is tastier ^^^

Been coming here about once a month either for fish and chips or 2g2g. Friendly staff, have been happy with the visit every time except once. Love their chips.

The last 4 or 5 times I wasn't happy. The chips used to be fresh, some have black bits and hardly any potato, used to be great, my son said he's not going again and I agree

Kennedy's of Goswell Road is a family gem! Their fish and chips are so good, you’ll wonder why you ever cooked at home. Friendly staff, cozy vibe, and a kids' menu to please everyone. A must-visit spot!

A perfect place for a traditional English fish & chips. The fish was amazing, and so were the fried calamaries. We also had an apple pie which was delicious.

Great place for a meat ,staff very welcoming, food excellent would highly recommend it

Friendly team, delicious food, never disappointed.

We had one of the best Fish and Chips in a very nice and clean fish restaurant with very friendly and chatty staff. A restaurant with a long history and experience how to bring a really fresh and good Fish and Chips on the plate - great.

I have been coming to this place for a long time. They serve some of the best fish and chips in London in my opinion! You can sit in, takeaway or get a delivery. The restaurant is lovely to sit in, though it can get very busy with coach tours and cab drivers. The staff are lovely, the food is really nice and the portions are generous. I visit regularly and I still love it though there has been some changes to the menu and some of my favourite dishes are no longer there. Would definitely recommend.

Really good fish and chips and the staff was friendly but the beer was a bit expensive. Really recommend for some authentic and cosy atmosphere

Fish really fresh, place very clean , staff very friendly, I was taken by friendly cab driver, who had recommended this place , thank you, it's truly worth a visit. Your love it good portions also. Nice place for a fish n chip supper on a Friday. Go on give them a try and see for yourself. Excuse the tartar sauce . Yummy

Excellent Fish & Chips. Really nice and kind waitress. Great authentic place. Will be back soon.

First time to London. Of course we had to try fish n chips. It was great. Large filet and chips. Hard to find any place open on a Sunday evening.

I had the most delicious, authentic fish and chips in London. The recommended draft beer and white wine were delicious. The fish was fried at 350 degrees, and the secret ingredient was dark beer, which made it crispy. The best! Eating it with vinegar is low in calories and delicious. I gave in to my desire and ate the tartar sauce at the end.

A friend and I were walking down Goswell road after my friend had finished doing her business at the Indian Embassy. We were feeling a bit hungry as neither of us had any breakfast, looking for some where to eat we saw a fish & chip shop. She wanted a takeaway, but no it was not just a takeaway but also a fish restaurant when I saw the beautifully interior of the restaurant I just wanted to eat there. I fell in love instantly, the beautiful chandeliers on the ceiling gave it a charm of days gone by. This told me I was somewhere special, so much attention to detail. Everthing was on point from the meal to the service to which was exceptionally good. There is a beautiful Japanese member of staff, so polite, this explained the attention to detail, the calm feeling The menu is quite varied. For a starter I had prawn cocktail & she had a small fish & chips, but it looked so good I had that as well, plus the traditional cup of of tea. I have eaten in many places, but this is the Creme Del Creme of Fish restaurants. Who would have thought that there was such a treasure so near. It a place that you can take your first date who wouldn't be impressed. Have a business lunch, friends & family.

A very good restaurant for those who prefer fish and chips.

Great fish & chips in a pleasant atmosphere of a small traditional restaurant :)

Had a lovely meal here tonight- grilled skate with brown butter sauce and chips, steak and kidney pie w mash and a nice very reasonably priced bottle of pinot Grigio. Charming attentive service. And a sparkling collection of crystal chandeliers!!

Food was pretty decent. Medium score as I do think the price for chicken fillet and chips is too much. And needs more/proper salad with it considering the price. Wish the curry sauce was more like chip shop curry sauce however and not Chinese. Thank you!

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.

Good place to eat fish & chips. Top notch service.

Very good food and nice personal who always satisfy your needs with a smile on their faces. Very recommended👍

Food delicious hot crispy and fresh Service great with a smile Toilets clean with excellent loo roll 👍

Best fish and chips on either side of the Atlantic. I would cross the Atlantic just for them. 7 Stars!!!!!!

£19.01 for sausage roll, chips and gravy with a coke...

The fish and chips were delicious! The staff was kind and the atmosphere of the store was nice. It was a shop that I would like to come to again♪

The fish was lovely but the chips were flavourless and rock hard. I couldn't decide if they were overcooked or stale. The poor quality of the chips really spoilt the meal.

perfect fish and chips restaurant

Very testy .. love it. Highly recommend 🐟🍟 and plater

Lovely place fish & chips are really good Highly recommend

The best fish ever!!!! Super recommended!
