Frozen Faux-Fish Filet - Edit
I was pretty disappointed by the vegan fish offered here. I've seen some old reviews mentioning banana blossom as the fish alternative, but that was nowhere to be seen.
Read moreInstead, the vegan fish is a strange, giant goujon-looking thing. It's definitely bought frozen and not made in house. Kind of like a giant fish finger but worse. Chewy and bland, not flaky at all.
The chips were delicious but I wouldn't recommend the vegan fish at all. You can find better elsewhere.

Pros: Vegan option , Good chips, Quick service for take out
Cons: Vegan option (singular) , Frozen filet , 11.45 for mediocre fish

Pretty solid option - Edit
While it doesn’t look super good, kind of looks like frozen fish sticks or something, it really tasted great. Fried vegan sausage was awesome too. We were bummed we couldn’t make it to unity diner because it was closed during our visit and this was a solid replacement.

Vegane fish & Chips - Edit
We were really happy with our fish and chips. In fact, we had to ask if it was really the vegan version because we couldn't taste any difference. If you're in the area, stop by. We can only recommend it

Hobson’s F&C - Edit
This place is a good choice if you are looking to try a vegan version of the infamous British fish and chips, but (in my opinion) it’s very greasy and bland. As a prior reviewer stated, it’s just fried jackfruit. Not particularly the calorie bomb that leaves me satisfied…especially since this dish lacks protein. Nice to try once.

Deep-fried jackfruit - Edit
Great idea to have “vegan” fish and chips. The chips were fantastic. However, the fish, as far as I could work out, was deep-fried jackfruit. Deep-fried jackfruit, in case you are wondering, is not very nice. If they sort out the “fish” aspect this would be a really good experience.

Outstanding experience - Edit
We ordered the vegan fish and chips, made from banana blossom. It was amazing and sooo delicious. Texture was a bit like jackfruit. Could have been a bit more fishy, but not 100 percent sure anymore what fish tastes like 😂 they tried to get the fishiness with seaweed which also helped to keep everything together when fried.
Read moreFries were ok, but not the main focus of the dish anyway. Price of 12£ was reasonable.
Pros: Fish and Chips, Lively restaurant, Good service

Okay taste, but weird texture - Edit
The taste was okay, but if you‘re sensitive to weird food texture - maybe pass on Hobson‘s fish & chips. It was also super hard to cut.
Read moreLoved the chips though!

Tasty fish and chips but… - Edit
We had a takeaway ‘vegan fish and chips’ rather than dine-in. The advantage of that is you can stand and watch it get cooked. The chips are cooked separately but the fish - including banana blossom vegan version - are all cooked together. They do keep everything separate and I saw the chef wash his hands after handling fish before picking up the banana blossom but then it goes in the same place.
Read morePros: Chips are fresh and well cooked, Price is sensible for a tourist trap
Cons: All cooked together

Impresionante, la verdad - Edit
Es muy guay probar comida local en versión vegana. El sabor es bastante aceptable. Pero lo que más me impresionó es que tiene hasta “espinas” como un pescado, esto es gracias a las flores del banano. Me quedé muy impresionado. Recomendable, aunque sea como anécdota.

Pros: Sabor bueno, Muy original y creativo
Cons: Mucho olor a pescado en el local (OBVIAMENTE), Las falsas espinas me cortaron un poco el rollo

Nothing to write home about - Edit
We came here for the British classic Vegan Fish and Chips. Chips were tasty with vegan tartar sauce. The vegan fish was nothing to write home about.

it’s ok, went for the experience - Edit
I came here for the same reason as everyone else - to eat fish & chips in London. It’s good to check off that item on the travel list but not otherwise.
Read moreThe vegan fish was not good, the chips (fries) were fine. It did come with vegan tartare sauce, but when I asked for a second one I think they gave me a non-vegan one.
Pros: eat fish & chips in London
Cons: the vegan fish is not good

Pretty Good - Edit
It was definitely cool to go out and have vegan fish and chips. The banana blossom fish was tasty but the chips were very average. I wouldn’t be rushing back.

Great vegan fish and chips but ask for it to be cooked separately!! - Edit
Had the vegan fish and chips and was so good. Massive portion too! I reckon if you get it to take away you could easily share one portion between two - it’s enough! But I asked if it was cooked separately before I ordered and the man said it can be if you want it to be. So this implies if you don’t ask it will be cooked in with the fish which I think is bad as you would assume that it’s separate if they are advertising it vegan. So if this bothers you please remember to ask for it cooked separately.
Read moreIt was delicious though - the 3 stars is only because of this! Ask for vegan tartare sauce too for the full British fish and chip experience!

Creative fish and chips - Edit
Never had banana blossom made into "fish" before so this was a fun way to be able to eat what all my non-vegan friends were eating. It's still a greasy meal like fish and chips is, but that's what I expected going in. I also got the mushy peas and those were tasty.

Vegan fish and chips - Edit
Una molt bona opció de gaudir el plat típic vegà. Està molt aconseguit visualment, fins i tot té una mena d'espines. El gust és molt suau i és millor amb algun tipus de salsa. El local és com un laberint molt aprofitat i el personal super amable. Serveixen ràpid, sens dubte, tornaria.

Vegan Fish & Chips - Edit
Delicious fish and chips on the basis of banana blossoms. A good portion that really fills you up. Chips could have been a little crispier and could have been served with more sauces than just ketchup. Nevertheless, there was also a vegan remoulade for the fish.
