You get what you get. For price and convenience this place is amazing, don’t expect fine dining for £8. Lovely place and food was delicious.

Without Any Doubt The Best Place For A Perfect Fish And Fish In London East End. You Just Got To Try The Cod Fish And Other Foods Here And You Won't Stop Coming Back Just Like Me. Disappointing That It Closes Early Evening At 4.30PM. Definitely Can And Must Extend It's Opening Hours Beyond 4.30PM To Around 9.PM At Night Period! Come Summer More Seats And Tables Needed Outside.
