Golden Union

We chose this spot because they offer a plant based menu that caters to vegans and specially came here to try the pies which were disappointingly all sold out when we arrived for dinner. we were going to leave but our server told us the vegan “fish” (made of banana blossom) was one of the best vegan options there. hesitant at first, as we are vegans who don’t like dishes that actually resemble meat or seafood, but we were pleasantly surprised since it was flavoured nicely and actually felt like we were having a flaky banana blossom and not something that looked and tasted like fish. the vegan tartar sauce and curry sauce were excellent compliments to the meal! the gravy is also vegan but was okay. chips were nice but not the best i’ve had. it was okay in the end and satisfying.

The chips and cod were lovely. the fish was really soft and tasted very fresh. the curry sauce was £2.50 which is rather expensive for what you get. nonetheless it tasted nice with the chips. service was quick, but by the time i left the queue was out the door, which is usually a good sign. they also have a seating area at the rear of the property. prices are competitive for the area. definitely worth popping down during lunch breaks. staff are always pleasant.

Excellent fish, good portions and perfect batter. it was very delicious. i tried it with the curry sauce and it was a pleasant surprise, really liked it. the chips were a let down though. cold chips, and they sneakily loaded up my bowl with lots of tiny pieces of chips before covering it with normal size ones on top. they could have done better with the chips, or else it would have been perfect.

Fish and chips was not greasy at all. lovely and fresh. had a home made steak n ale pie. fish , cooked on the spot. service good. attentive. atmosphere just like the old days with a nice ,clean , fish n chop shop atmosphere. 👌 when i'm in london will always pop in there.

I've been coming back to london for a long time, of course i have to eat a fish and chips. the place is nice. the banana milkshake was very good. the tartar sauce was very tasty. the fish was good. i found the breading not crispy enough and the staff suggested that next time i could ask for more crispy. that was nice of her. the employees are very kind.
