I am very fussy when it comes to fish and chips and these are the best I have had in the south of London. Please avoid buying fish and chips in pubs - they always disappoint...
The food is fresh, delicious and good value for money.

Getting Around

Train services from here take you to London Bridge (Borough Market, Tower Bridge) (9 minutes away) and Charing Cross (West End of London) - 15 minutes away. Both areas are well worth exploring.
This service takes you in to the centre of London. If you go in the opposite direction it takes you to a lovely town in the countryside called Sevenoaks (well worth a visit)
