North Sea Fish Restaurant has now become something of a classic in the fish and chips genre and its location on Leigh Street is significant as London's black cabdrivers seek to familiarise themselves with this landmark site whilst pursuing 'The Knowledge'. The abundance of black taxis outside maybe a good sign bettered only by the sight of some flavoursome fish and chips.

The small menu opens with starters of avocado vinaigrette, fresh melon and homemade vegetable soup or three large sardines grilled to perfection with a salad garnish. Then Dover sole, Scotch salmon, rainbow trout, skate, and fillets of cod, haddock or plaice could follow, all coated in a crispy batter, or in egg and matzo meal and then deep-fried. Those with a hearty appetite have the option of a jumbo portion, which can also be grilled. For an indulgent ending to a meal at North Sea Fish Restaurant you could count on a dessert of sherry trifle, tiramisu or crème caramel.
