“ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sussex Fish & Chips – Paddington Heard about this place from a friend who works near Paddington Station, so I decided to travel all the way from East Ham to try it out. Ordered a large fish and chips, and the brother at the counter told me to wait 10 minutes as he was frying it fresh — worth the wait! The portion was huge! My 12-year-old granddaughter and I shared it easily. I noticed they also do mushy peas, so I asked the brother to give me some on the house Only £12 for a large fish and chips — perfectly fried, crispy outside and juicy inside. It brought back lovely memories of seaside fish and chips in Lancaster and Morecambe. Really enjoyed it! Definitely coming back again with the whole family ”
“ The fish had good flavor and the batter has a nice cruch. The chips were okay. The staff was very friendly. The atmosphere was a little generic, probably catering more to passing tourists our of Paddington Station. ”
“ Was originally going elsewhere for battered cod but missed it and found this little gem instead. Price was pretty good, and enjoyed the food immensely - but was annoyed to find the price includes chips even if you don't eat them! ”
