Established in 1999 and proudly celebrating twenty years in Borough Market this year, fish! was the first restaurant of its kind in London. Our concept is simple – providing our customers with the best quality fish, cooked in front of you, in simple and classic ways. Since 1999 our focus has never changed, quality and responsible sourcing is still our main concern…we just look a bit more fancy now!
Our central location in Borough Market means that London’s best produce is right on our doorstep. We are proud to say that we source most of our produce from Borough Market itself, and our fish is delivered daily from our very own fishmonger, Jarvis, which is renowned for its extensive range of the freshest fish and seafood. We're also winners at the National Fish & Chip awards too!

We really enjoyed everything we had. I asked for a slight variation on my main course, which was done without any fuss. The food & the service are always excellent, which is why I return as often as I can.

Food was decent but over priced for the value. Cocktail menu was great if you like Gin. For the food, everything drenched in dressing or sauce, taking away from the seafood. Service was the worst we had in London. Asked for condiments, they didn’t come. Server never checked on us once after appetizers were delivered, 30 min later a different server came to check on us and we asked for bill and left without ordering mains.

Long term FISH diner, last time a year ago. Several changes evident, smaller portions, although still delicious. Increased prices and service charge up to 13.5% That nearly caused an issue because although the restaurant was only just beginning evening service our server was very casual about taking our order, providing a wine list, clearing our table, providing the bill. Food still very tasty, but service needs a bit of work. I was a minute a away from chopping the 'optional' charge.

Had fish and chips. Foor was good but both chips and peas were cold. Dessert was (bread and butter pudding with creme Anglaise (custard). pudding was cold in the middle suggesting not defrosted properly. Staff were excellent throughout and this is very different to a previous visit.
