So, what does a fish restaurant in London look like? The benefits of fresh seafood do not stop there. Consumers are looking for variety, attentive service, dietary choices, etc. and good preparation. At Fishoria, we compile these details. This guide has a few things to say about the nature of a seafood meal, the influence of market deliveries on our menu, the culinary delights we offer beyond fish and chips, and why our restaurant is ideal for visiting Covent Garden, Soho and the West End.
What Makes a Great Fish Restaurant in London?
The finest fish restaurant in London isn’t just a single dish. They are listening to the seafood, cooking and the visit. Fish should be clean and fresh, batter should be light and crisp and grilled foods should be moist.
The guests need to have the freedom of choosing a meal for the occasion. It could be a quick bite to eat, a leisurely meal with a friend before a movie, or a seafood feast with friends. Our team at Fishoria is a family business and we serve British favourites as well as a wider selection of seafood.
The best fish restaurants in London will have:
- Fresh and responsibly caught seafood.
- Fried and grilled options.
- Clear dietary information.
- Helpful, welcoming service.
- A convenient and central location.
Fresh Seafood Delivered Daily From Billingsgate Market
Why is it important to have a daily source of income? Fish is a perishable product and frequent deliveries ensure fish is served fresh and with better flavour and texture. We get our fish from Billingsgate market, one of the most famous seafood markets in London, every day.
Responsibly sourced fish and prepared for a variety of plates. There is further information about how we are sourcing our fish responsibly in our guide to responsibly sourced fish from Billingsgate Market.
More Than a Traditional Fish and Chip Shop in London
So are we just another London fish and chips restaurant? Our menu is more than just No. Cod, haddock, plaice and homemade chips, though we continue to offer them all.
Grilled cod, haddock, salmon, tuna, plaice or sea bass are available for purchase. Seafood lovers will also have the option of Calamari, prawns, scampi, salt and pepper squid and a mixed seafood basket. We also have gluten free fish and chips, cooked in a separate oil and vegan fish cooked with banana blossom on our current menu. Allergies may be a possibility, although not a certainty, of cross-contamination, please discuss this with our staff.
