Popular local takeaway open 7 days a week situated near Thatched House Leytonstone. Friendly interactive staff who like to make small talk with customers. Generous portions and a wide selection of kebabs as well as traditional fish and chips. Prices reasonable.

The batter on the fish and sausages is very tough and the sausage was like lava. Maybe it had been defrosted prior to cooking? Ended up taking all the batter off as it wasn't good. I'm not an expert in battering food so not sure what has gone wrong, but they need to fix it.

Got the chicken wings and chips from here yesterday. The chicken wings tasted very funny and today we have both had dodgy stomachs, avoid this dish. All other food and times we have been here it’s been good however, maybe the heat/weather as we are in a heatwave.

Been a regular at this Chippy for years now. Not sure if under new management but quality of food and service is not worth even 1 star. I made a telephone order for pick 2 large cod and chips £10 each and a regular cod and chips, on the phone was told £27.50. When I went to pick up the food I dropped the regular cod and chips order to only regular cod on its own, so now the order was 2 large cod and chips a regular cod on its own. Bill was for £33, how's that possible? When I challenged the bill to how it came to £33, don't know who this new staff member is but started getting irate, abrupt rude and abusive as to why I asking him of break down of bill. I was just confused to how the total sum was more than the original even after I dropped the chips from a meal. Quality of food was poor chips under cooked, fish was in a oil bath of paper and the skin was all stuck to paper even though on the phone I specifically told them to leave the cods in the counter after they come out the fryer to dry and drain the oil out.

Bones in my fish. After a long night of enjoying local alcoholic refreshments, I ordered this on Uber. Everything was fine on that end, arrived fine. Chips were decent enough. Fish was okay too, except for the BONES. Look, I've had a lot of fish n chips in my day. Not once have I ever got a mouthful of bones. And not tiny little ones. But sizable, painful ones. Yes, fish have bones and I am prepared for them in almost any other fish dish/product. This was a complete surprise, however. And very unwanted. Also, not a fan of skin-on. Even without the bones, this was just average. I've had so much better in my life, from a wide range of chippys. I mean, you can't expect much from a chain that runs late night, so beggars can't be choosers... but come on. Bones, really?

Value for money had small cod and chips, nothing small about the size of the fish. Chips were tepid and overall a bit oily. Hotter chips would not go amiss. Hours later still feel a bit queesy cos of greesy food. Maybe should have awarded 2 and half stars.

Big portions for reasonable price. We share one large cod and chips between two people. My favoured place for chippy chips and decent fried fish. The kebabs are a little bland for my taste but make sure you always ask for the garlic and chilli sauces as they are 5 star.

Used to be one of the better fish and chip shops in the area, now under new management sad to say it's gone way downhill, although they still cook from fresh (always a good sign) our purchase of two large cod and a large chips were way too greasy, batter was soft and the fish fairly thin, perhaps they're still trying to find their feet but considering that takeaway isn't the cheap option it used to be, until it improves, give it a swerve for now.

I called them at 5pm to order a chicken donner and a chicken and lamb donner and i will be coming to pick it up at 7:30pm the guy said okay i will make sure its done before 7:30. I go to the shop at 7:30 and the guy didnt even get the pitta bread ready like for real and he started serving the customers and i had to wait flipping 20mins waiting and then i told him to hurry and he said he was doing as fast as he could then he just gave me a bag and i paid him £14, when i went home i opened my chicken and lamb donner there was red cabbaged on it and that hand made souse and in the call i told him i didnt wat those but he still put it and never told me or asked me! After he ripped the meat off the thing he put it in a pan, why in a pan? He was not wearing gloves he just picked my pitta bread with his hands he put the cabbage tongs on the onion one like do they not think of hygiene. Do not recommend i much rather walk 4mins to the other nearest fish n chips i bet its way better then theirs.

Waited roughly 20 minutes for 3 pieces of fish and chips. The 3 guys working there are clearly overworked judging by their demeanor and the sheer pace that they have to work at to stand a chance of keeping up with demand. To make matters worse, the constant stream of Deliveroo or Uber eats delivery guys barging in with their mobile phone orders essentially pushing their way to the front of the queue. The worst part was obviously the food. 20 minutes of waiting for soggy batter stuck to the wrapping paper was enough to put me off this business for good. A word of advice lads. Employ more staff and perhaps have one dedicated to the Deliveroo guys. Make the customers that got off their backsides to visit your shop your priority. Poor food and even poorer customer service. Avoid

If I could give No stars, I would as I am NOT Impressed. I usually buy from Cod father alot. Before covid and lockdown, I would pass by regular on my way home. They have Seriously Now Lost my Custom. I ordered 2 x fish & chips as far as I thought and 2 x sausages, one in batter and the other plain. With delivery fees, the charge was £27.75p I thought the price was high but accepted the order. My order arrived with No Chips!! One pays almost £30 AND No chips with the dishes at that price. Wow!!! This is unheard off. I am fuming and dissapointed because they WERE the best fish and chips around.- A sausage under normal circumstances is £1.20p apparently they are changing double for anyone who orders for delivery at £2.40p. Never Again. WARNING!!! Think twice before you order for delivery peeps. It really is Day Light Bloody Robbery.

We love this place. The guys that work here are absolutely lovely (you treat them well and they treat you well), and the food is great. Bear in mind it’s not gourmet, it’s a chippie and you’ll be happy. The large chips is defo enough for two, and then I absolutely love the chicken shish and the mrs is a cod fiend. We are never disappointed. We have another fish and chip place a 2 min walk away (this is 10) and yet we cannot bring ourselves to try it because it can’t be more reliably decent than this place. Keep it up boys.

What an experience - A six course Latin American taster in a refurbished 1967 Victoria tube train that was amazing. From the unique environment to the authentic food made by the Head chef, Beatriz, who explained her inspiration and heritage for each of the dishes. Each plate was beautifully presented without the pretentious nonsense, layers of flavours and textures, which left you wanting more. Service by our waiter, Chris, also added to the overall experience too, which just made it even more special. Food and drinks flowed with ease throughout the evening, as lasted about 2.5 hours. Easy to get to and parking nearby was free after 6.30pm, so safe walking to and from in the dark.
