About Fish Central

Fish Central has been serving some of London's best fish and chips since 1968, operating from its spotless white dining room on Central Street near Old Street. The menu goes well beyond the chip shop staples — think fresh plaice, sea bass, halibut and daily specials alongside the classic battered cod. A dedicated kids' menu and the simple, universally-loved format make it an easy win for families. The lunchtime sessions are popular with local workers; evenings are quieter and better for families.
