Captain's Table

I am SOOO disappointed. After reading the great reviews and rating for this tiny fish and chip shop, I was really looking forward to some good fish and chips. This was my first and last visit. It scrapes average, because my husband said his haddock was average (I have to say generous size and the chips were proper chip shop chips. BUT my skate (huge piece! and the haddock were absolutely dripping in fat/oil. It had soaked through the boxes and was pooling in the carrier bag. I have to say that that put me off straight away, but, in any event, I wasn't over impressed with my skate. When WuFlu is over, if you are mobile, try North Sea Fish near St Pancras Station. They have really spoiled me for any other fish and chip shop. Really sad to have to leave a not so great review.

We have had great fish and chips from here previously but last night's experience was very disappointing. We pre ordered 3 haddock, a savaloy and 2 large chips. When we arrived to collect we were ignored by the girls serving who were too busy chatting about handbags and make up to acknowledge us apart from taking our money. The fish was fine but the chips were under cooked and had become one solid lump of potato. We couldn't even separate the chips. The savaloy was hard and cold. We weren't sure whether it was over cooked or undercooked! We will be trying to find another fish and chip shop sadly.

Last Wednesday at lunch time I need some good food to counter the cold and rain. I wasn't expecting anything special but I couldn't have been more wrong. The fish and chips from Captain's Table were the best that I have had in many a year. The batter around the fish was thin and crispy and cooked to perfection. The fish was clearly fresh not frozen and the chips were crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. The people who prepare and cook the food obviously know their stuff and are Masters at their craft. Thank you for a wonderful and filling meal. I shall return!

We pre ordered nine portions of cod chips with the request that the chips be well cooked as they are so often quite flabby in fish chip shops. Fortunately we noticed in time that they can't count as we were only given 8 portions! This was rectified, which meant a bit of a wait as they cook everything to order. We weren't overly impressed with our meals as whilst the batter was crispy, the fish was overcooked and the chips, well flabby! Maybe it was a bit of a tall order for a Bank Holiday Monday but we felt that having given prior notice, things should have been perfect.

Had 2 portions of cod and chips. Enormous portions , cooked to perfection. Light batter and flaky fish which melted in the mouth. Will definitely use again.
