Great service and great food! Wanted to have some authentic fish n chips and was not disappointed. I highly recommend it if what you are looking for is great food.
We ordered the master's special fish and chips, grilled sea bass and calamari. First comes the cold prawns and bread. The cold prawns are good! The fish and chips is delicious too - Batter is thin and crispy, the fish itself was cooked soft and nice. I also recommend the calamari. Husband had the Grilled sea bass. He said it was good :)
Coming from the Midlands I've discovered that although London has lots of food to offer sometimes it just can't get the basics right. But this place puts some fish and chip shops in from home to shame. The fish always test so tender and the chips are great. Huge portions and just so delicious. It's not a fancy place but the food supercedes all that.
We were staying across the road during our visit to London and wanted to try some good Fish and Chips else our trip would not have been completed :-) so we Zomatoed some place in and around. The place had some great reviews and we though of giving it a shot! The place is having a good cozy seating arrangement with nice clear view of the street and in far view you might catch a glimpse of London Eye! We ordered Specialty Sea Bass grilled and Cod fried fish n chips. The portions are generous and of good quality. Whereas Cod was very nice and crisp, the Sea Bass did not live up to the expectations as it was too smelly to eat. May be we made a wrong choice in selecting Sea bass for grilled portion but anyhow Cod tasted fresh and soft. The service is decent. I would have rated this place higher if the ambiance was little better and the fish was not smelly ;-) but overall a nice place for quick friend fish n chips with some Beer if you like!
It was right next to our Hotel and we thought of resorting to Zomato for finding a good dining place close by. So in London and you need to have the very famous London Fish n Chips! Saw some reviews about this place and just walked in. The place does not look very upmarket but is good cozy place. Nice large portions of fish! True taste of fish n chips of London! Once a lifetime try for sure. Place is decent and food is good. We ordered Master's Special Cod and Grilled Seabass. Seabass was a little smelly although Cod was very moist and fresh. Service was good.
Food was amazing, but the service was pretty dire and very unfriendly. Didn't even understand what a battered sausage was.. Sauces were cheap and drinks were small.
Real let down.
No frills fish and chips. Came back here after a fantastic meal here years ago. Don't remember most of the staff looking ethnic looking - look at the menu, most of the "Masters" empire is Asian food. All walks of life in here tonight - locals, tourists with suitcases, students, everybody. Got a fishcake which was OK. They give you bread and prawns to start with - didn't touch the prawns. Got the fried cod which comes with chips. Large portion with fairly substantial dark skin. Was OK but not the best I've had in London. Chips were ok but not oustanding. They give you a hut pot of ketchup and tartare sauce - but turned down the gherkin and onion. Pretty humourless service as others have pointed out.
As an American I was very curious to try "proper British" fish and chips. Masters Super Fish met my expectations and more. The fish was fresh and generously sized. The chips were pretty much like anywhere else, but you could tell the fish was high quality. One of the best fish and chips I've had and not too expensive to boot.
No-frills British fare. So very English, and nothing touristy about it. I went on a Wednesday night and it was packed with old English chums, all in their late 40s in clusters of 5+ and it was a lovely no-frills atmosphere.
The food was mediocre, though, and service was sluggish and completely deadpan; not a smile to be seen. The batter on the fish was delicious, but the cod itself was rather rubbery and didn't seem very fresh. The grilled sardines and salmon were tastier, but the fries were underwhelming. The steak & onion pie looked 100% like a frozen pre-prepared meal that was just thrown in the oven. Most pleasant surprise was definitely the pickled onions and cucumbers, which tasted homemade and not out of a jar. Prices were okay, though I'd even expect it to be cheaper in an establishment like this.
I'd recommend it for a no-nonsense typical British dining atmosphere and for food in terms of the fish and chips, but don't expect too much out of anything else.
Huge portions and excellent fish. Can't go wrong. I didn't care much for the shrimp appetizer however. Otherwise it's a gem.
Great fish 'n chips. What more can you ask for?
Fast service, tasty and generous portions.
Just beyond the reach of too many tourist so a more relaxed place to sit and eat, or take away as you wish.
Great place for English style fish and chips.
The Food was amazing and the waiters were super nice.
Amazing fish and chips! We got the cod and the portions were huge. Loved that they gave shrimp, bread and pickles for free - it was a great way to start off the meal. The place didn't give off a touristy vibe, it seemed like a neighborhood spot to eat.
Great service and fresh fish. Love both cod fish with mustard and cod fish fillet. Shrimp is a free starter which is surprisingly yummy. The only downside is the smell of the oily smoke on clothes
Worth the flight to UK? Maybe. This was the best fish and chips I've ever eaten. Great service, too. We had the battered and mustard combo, a side of mushy peas, some curry sauce on the side, some pickles and picked onions, calamari, a few prawns... chased it all down with a couple of ciders and we were in fishy heaven.
Very nice place with gigantic proportions and friendly staff.
My brother shared a cod fish and chips with his wife and so did my father. I got a children's fish bits and chips and it was more than enough for me.
I would normally dock a star for service because it was really busy so everything, from ordering to paying took a while. However, they were really nice and could use more staff.
I love this place. Currently serves my fav cod & chips in London. Nice large fresh pieces of fish, good solid chips. They throw in a shrimp appetizer and bread and pickles for free. Friendly solid service. If you have to go to only one F&C place in London, this is my pick. You really can't go wrong.
If you want fish and chips for supper and you live in the Waterloo/ Lambeth North area look no further. The finest chippy in all of London in my books
Great fish and chips. Portions are large (however significantly smaller than they were pre-pandemic). Prices are decent (however significantly more expensive than pre-pandemic). Overall while the quality has gone down in recent years, it is still one of the best fish and chips places that will give you a large, hearty meal.
