    A really delicious eat in meal 🍴 of vegan banana 🍌 blossom fish and chips, vegan jumbo sausage and vegan mushy peas. Lovely and crispy chips, and the vegan banana blossom fish was very yummy with an incredible taste, texture and batter. Well worth the visit for any vegans if you are in London. Update: another visit with photos added, super delicious, generous portions, crunchy and amazing service and flavours. Highly recommended for all vegans in London and visiting London for delicious vegan fish and chips, mushy peas sausage and tartare sauce.

    Shout out to their vegan menu, the vegan fish and chips and lobster sub is amazing. Also generous portion is always a win.

    It is still the best fish& chips in town; had some different fish and chips: cod and haddock, very good taste, generous portion, staff very attentive and professional. For sure will come back. Thanks to Chef John for my amazing culinary experience . Merry Christmas

    I had been looking forward to trying this place for done time. Whilst I didn't have an awful time by any means, and certainly wouldn't really complain, I must say the experience was quite disappointing on balance. Eaten: cod and chips, at table, tea. Prices were rather ridiculous - top flight fish n chip restaurants in higher rent locations in London don't often charge more than this. But the quality here was below par for an average take away chippie. Portion size was adequate, but for the price, one might hope for a larger fish. Cod flesh actually was fine - at least it was tender and not overcooked. Batter was crispy in places, but somehow underwhelming. Chips were veering toward that weird unpleasant texture - not enough to ruin the meal for me, but enough that I wouldn't bother going back. Overall, eating was more an exercise in being fed, than a joyous pleasure. All in all, I couldn't help feeling that they really could fix this fairly easily if they cared and looked around to compare themselves against decent restaurants; I hope they do, as the place has great potential, and isn't that far off not-getting-it-wrong. Service was friendly and appropriately thorough, but a little inexperienced in approach and demeanor, and not stunning for a place that charges over £21 for cod, chips and peas, and a single, non refillable cup of builders tea. They did appear attentive to cleaning; I got the feeling that they cared, but just didn't know better. I don't think they would have survived this way, pre-gentrification; I wish them well, and hope either that they and their customers are happy as they are, or that they work on the few things that let them down. It's doable - they wouldn't need to drop the prices, if they raised the bar, and raising the bar shouldn't cost them more than knowledge, skill, attention to detail.

    Banana Blossom and chips. Exquisite. My favourite go to for Vegan fish n chips. And was also my first place I'd tasted this delicious alternative. Since then nothing has exceeded this place. Great service and generous portions. The menu has a good varied choice too, including Vegan deserts! Highly recommend this little gem.

    This is a review for the vegan fish and chips from optional vegan menu. Good value for money. The fish is made from banana blossom, the flower of the banana plant. It’s a more healthy option than processed fake meat which you may find elsewhere. Banana blossom has a natural flaky texture. It’s just like an artichoke heart in its flavour and texture. Any seafood flavour is added through marinating. I personally think they could have added more of a seafood flavour as it was quite subtle. The chunky chips were good. Decor is like a retro fish and chip shop. A rare bread these days.

    Came to try the vegan options. Not bad but nothing to write home about. Have definitely had tastier vegan fish. The vegan prawn cocktail was pretty good though. My partner had Haddock with chips and said it was pretty average.

    I went there for early dinner but they didn’t have the vegan fish that I wanted to have. So I had the chicken burger but was very disappointed. The Chechen fillet was very very thin, no bite and therefore not satisfying. I felt like just eating a thin layer of fried batter. It’s unfortunate because I enjoyed the vegan fish at the other brunch and wanted to support small family business. £8 for this ? I was very unsatisfactory and wished I got vegan chicken burger from somewhere else.

    Stopped at the Hackney Central shop on Friday night. Best fish and chips I think I’ve ever had. The fish was beautiful with a perfect light batter and not greasy at all. Will definitely stop again when passing 👌👌

    Superb to have a proper fish and chip meal that was vegan! Not just a bit vegan but lots of options. Staff were very friendly and provided a great service.

    Amazing vegan fish and chips, especially the vegan scampi is unbelievably real and very tasty. Huge portions, great sauces, good service. Highly recommended

    It was man versus fish and I nearly lost! They source their own sustainable seafood and this "Plaice" was the largest portion of fish I've ever seen. ...my wife had the vegan banana flower which was also great.

    We visited mid-November 2023, after 2pm. The vegan menu is what drew us here and for plant-based peeps it's a great place to eat. I'm not vegan so had a dine-in Cod and chips, with a fishcake to start and big cup of coffee. The service was perfect, the food excellent and we spent a happy hour peering out of the window watching the world go by. The prices were no worse than anywhere else, but as I don't live in the UK it's difficult to make a judgement. Suttons & Sons at Hackney Central is highly recommended if you like your fish chips traditional, or plant-based.

    Best ending for our London Trip! We ate the Kids menu and it was still nearly to big for us. Service was super friendly! Thanks for the nice evening!

  • 5/5 Jack B. 5 months ago on Google
    Easily the best fish and chips in London. A little pricey though.

  • 4/5 nick w. 11 months ago on Google
    Traditional fish and chips chain with an extensive vegan menu. I got the cod and chips and mushy peas, i wished there was tartar sauce, not sure if they missed out or i was supposed to purchase separately. More my fault than theirs.

  • 4/5 Roni The D. 6 months ago on Google
    Grilled salmon delicious. Pleasant staff. Fab chips, but portion size MUCH too big. VERY disappointing that, having paid £16:55 per portion for fish'n'chips, they couldn't throw in just one sachet of tartare sauce/ketchup. 40p for a one teaspoonful portion! Come on guys!! Plus, it's freely available on the table if you eat in! What's that all about!! Just offer one sachet of choice to each customer - much better for customer relations. Compensate by halving the ridiculously large portion size of your chips! Amazing choice of vegan options btw, if you're that way inclined.

    recently got sutton & sons on deliveroo where there's a promotion for £7 off selected restaurants! i got large chips & two battered sausages (made my own gravy at home). the chip portion was huge and the battered sausages were perfection, ultra thin layer of batter.

    I had a dozen oysters for $2.50 each. I also had the lobster sandwich and I loved the flavors but it wasn’t enough actual meat. The Prosecco was good too. I didn’t have to have to wait long at all for my order and the staff was nice. It’s right next to my hotel in hackney too

    Great Cod & Chips, Tea and Stick Toffee Pudding with ice cream, pricey but excellent service and excellent quality of food so didn't mind paying. Also very upbeat atmosphere so all in all a great find. Will certainly be my go to for fish & chips in Stokey.

  • 5/5 Kyron M. 2 years ago on Google
    Everything was made to order. The onion rings were proper onions and didn't slide out of the batter. The banana blossom fish was well seasoned and took on the flavours of the tartar sauce nicely. The chips where hand cut and was fried to perfection. We was offered table service and was given a vegan menu by alejandra. She was very wise and didn't mind us asking questions about the menu or food...definitely a place to try for vegan fish and chips.

  • 5/5 Samuel B. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice little shop. Price is probably about par for fish and chips these days. Food is good quality and good size portions. Option to eat in which is great. Extensive range of fish and plenty of vegan options too.

    I've been to Sutton and Sons before but not this location, had the vegan scampi and Chips and it was great and the portion were so generous I was unable to finish. The scampi tasted really good it was flavourful and had a nice texture with. The vegan mayo they had was lovely, a perfect complement with the scampi. The service was really good and I definitely recommend!

    Nice fish and chips, not greasy at all! Mackerel was dry and overcooked and the vegetables were not fresh but frozen! out of a freezer pack!

  • 2/5 mathew g. 2 years ago on Google
    Ordered the lobster sub roll. Had high expectations given I’ve frequented this establishment and always been really impressed, especially the Stoke Newington branch. However, the lobster was dry and didn’t taste particularly fresh, compensated with a heavy seasoning of paprika powder. Given this was the high price item, expected a lot more. Shame.

    Great vegan food, and awesome service! The magic of the no-fish is on the batter, I'd suggest a thinner slice, and if necessary add 2 slices.
