Description

I’m on a mission to find the BEST fish and chips in London! But tell that to a Londoner, and you’ll spark the fiercest battle in the UK. Why? Because "the best" means something different to everyone. Some want that nostalgic, old-school crunch cooked in beef fat. Others want it served with a pint in a classic British pub, and sometimes, you want pure luxury. You can't crown just one winner—so my friend James and I are breaking it down into 4 categories to finally settle the debate of where to eat the best fish and chips in London! From historic chippies to Dover Sole at Corenucopia by Clare Smyth, this is the ultimate fast-paced London food tour.

Everyone in the UK knows the best fish and chips are outside of London 😆

Even as a born and bred Londoner, we know the best fish and chips are up North and/or by the seaside. There are some fabulous regional variations too

It's so amazing how even over 15 years later, the passion Mark Wiens has for food is still just as strong as it always has been.

It's a shame they don't serve it wrapped in a newspaper like the old days. Great video

When Mark says “Oh! Wow”, it means he genuinely liked the food because he doesn’t express like this with every meal he eats 😁😋
