Dining here is like being transported back to the 1960s, though the prices are firmly bang up to date (£17 for cod & chips?!). OK I had a pint bottle of Bombardier ale, bread and butter and mushy peas as well. The food was terrific, service smart and ambience a throwback to a bygone era. I half expected Kenneth Williams (who as a kid lived round the corner in Marchmont Street) to walk in any minute. Much recommended.

Good old Fish and Chips!
As good as ever, very friendly with local and tourist clientele. Excellent jumbo skate and jumbo rock, petit pois for her and mushy peas for me, with great basket of chips/tartare sauce. Mother is still making those 'special' desserts. Also special on the night, an excellent South African cabernet chilled to bits, lively with fruit. Can't wait to go again. 5-Star rating is for good old fashioned fish& chips and atmosphere!
I found this place from a sign in a tube lift. Back in the 90's when I travelled to London frequently, The North Sea was my secret fish and chip shop because the food was always outstanding, the value excellent, and I could always get a table immediately. Dear old dad, who's gone now but had loved London since being stationed there in WWII, swore on our last visit that this place has the best Dover sole in the world. I agree. Well worth my trip across the pond. The fact that this place is still going after all these years is a sign they're doing something right.
I'll give you one guess at what North Sea Fish Restaurant sells. That's right - fish! Fish and chips to be exact, and pretty yummy specimens too. North Sea Fish Restaurant is the perfect Saturday afternoon place. Or should that be 'plaice'...haha!
My wife & I had dinner at the North Sea Fish Restaurant in October. We have eaten there several times in the last 4 years. This time we both had the Prawn salad with the Sardine appetizer.
These dishes were perfection. The seafood
has always been very fresh and perfectly
prepared. I can’t remember the wine but
it was white and complimented the seafood.
We will always go back, but the proprietor needs
to look a little happier. I hope his sour
countenance does not portend disaster.
