The best restaurants serving British food in London

Went to chippey to night food was excellent but when you go in and there’s no one in front of you ,you expect to wait no more than 25 minutes Uber upon Uber come in and pick up orders no problem but please tell the walk in customers you may have to wait up to 45 minutes plus not what I call traditional

We met with friends because of the restaurant's proximity to Farringdon. We started off seated outside but as it got colder and then started raining we moved indoors The restaurant has a great atmosphere and it was a shame that on a Friday evening there were so few diners Our server was really good, cheerful and chatty We had started with glasses of house white - it was so good we asked to see what it was - Grillo from Sicily We then moved onto Chianti with the meal The menu is short and interesting and we really struggled to choose. We had sourdough and buter to nibble on whilst choosing Two had the ham hock terrine with toast which was chunky and tasty with a pear picallili I had the barbequed mackeral which came with asparagus and little sudges of mayo and roe - nice For mains we had bavette steak with fries, the flat iron Holstein chicken that came with a small side salad and a mushroom risotto Sides of fries were excellent and a green salad was very fresh and crisp with a great dressing We finished with a rhubarb brulee and a banoffi shortbread with ice cream We were all very please with teh food, teh wine, the ambience and teh service An excellent find

If you love the steamed-up windows of a traditional chippy on a cold evening, and a paper wrapper brimming with tasty chips, Cod upon Thames is for you. The staff are friendly and chatty, the fish is good, the chips are even better (or should that been even batter?), and it’s only the stark décor and brutalist interior that denies this little local treasure the full star rating. Maybe it's the oil, or the way they cut them, but the chips are plump and flavoursome. Burnished metal walls make it feel like you’re in a shipping container, and the counter is so high it’s only possible to glimpse the staff. But let’s focus on the food. It’s the usual mixture of bangers (some in batter), chicken, burgers and fish ‘n’ chips. Standard fish and chips is under seven quid, pies are £2.40, and you can get chip butties (£1.60), cheesy chips for £3 and standard chips – a good-sized portion – for £1.80. Extras include onion rings, mushy peas and baked beans, and Cod upon Thames also does pineapple fritters and curry sauce. Soft drinks are housed in a large fridge at the far end.

Di passaggio vicino la torre di Londra ci siamo fermati in questo ristorante che serve dei buoni hamburger, si ordina e paga alla cassa ma si viene serviti al tavolo. Il personale è molto gentile ed il servizio veloce. Prezzi buoni

He visitado el salón oval en varias ocasiones, siempre termina los días de semana. El personal es genial y muy agradable, las hamburguesas son tan buenos que querrás otra enseguida. El único fallo ha sido, cada vez, la larga espera. Por el momento la hamburguesa venía tanto mi amigo y yo habíamos terminado la bebida y pedimos otro.

Great food - lovely mix of classic with great twists - thank you! Staff were great too - the mix of real friendliness and efficiency. One of the best experiences we have had of late. We will be back!

a real gem. there aren’t many pubs like this around anymore. the roast was a real old school home cooked one. i love a posh roast but this was just like stepping into a time machine and being a child again. warm and hearty meal with my family in a homely pub. the barmaid was a darling as well. will definitely be back 🩷

The food was exceptional, with fresh flavors and beautiful plating. The staff was warm and attentive, making us feel welcome. The cozy ambiance added charm, making it unforgettable.

Very cosy environment, clean, polite staff and the food/beverages are exceptional.

Great traditional pub just off the main streets. Service is swift and efficient even on a busy lunch. Extensive selection of beers and wines to suit all tastes backed up with good pub food menu.

Great service and food. Thank you

Friendly staff, Nice surroundings, cosy pub feel, Quick and attentive service There were some limited choices on the day I visited Sea bass and fish/chips sold out), kids menu was great and good fun to be able to make your own meal. Really enjoyed and thanks to the staff.

We had a reservation for 15 and got 2 separate tables opposite each other, which is not how you want to seat with your group. Also it was in the extended balcony which is not insulated and it was freezing despite the heaters. Very uncomfortable. Also if you order on the app, you get your food before your drinks. Not great. Shame, because the pub looks lovely, but service not fit for purpose.

Absolutely dissapointed with this establishment. I ordered food from here last week and to be honest, the food was great. I ordered again today using Uber Eats and I mentioned in the notes that in my last order one item was missing. Just because I mentioned that they cancelled my order with Uber Eats saying I called and cancelled when I did not. When I called to ask why my order had been cancelled, I was told by the person answering the phone that the 'boss' had done this and he is not there now to speak with. Extremely Extremely bad manners and service, will never ever order from there again or recommend anyone to est there either. Such a shame.
