Elite Fish Bar — Restaurant in London

Writing on behalf of mother in her 60s.

Food always good value and have been loyal customer - friendly with boss. Last went few months ago. Went there for lunch with another friend in his 70s And both bought lunch and drink today. Paid and drinks arrived. One member of staff came over telling us that they want us to leave because they felt we stole their condiments previously?! We asked for cctv evidence. They said they dont have one. We asked for proof - they claim they found We often would sit on the same table and condiments would be missing after? Why were we never challenged previously if so? We asked to see the boss but they claim he is on holiday. Staff was rude, told us to leave and never come back? They made insulting slander and shouted at us in front of all customers.

I visited this place today and ordered a chicken and mushroom pie with chips and curry sauce. The food came quickly and was actually really good fresh, tasty, no complaints there.

Walking into Elite Fish Bar was like stepping onto the set of a bad sitcom where nobody got the script. The atmosphere was so tense you could cut it with a chip, clearly, the staff weren’t exactly swapping friendship bracelets behind the counter. The service was a disaster, with the unfriendly older woman at the till playing a grubby game of “food, cash, food” with hands that looked like they’d been mud-wrestling. The chips? A jaw-dropping £5 for a portion so tiny it barely covered the plate, making the £10 for two feel like a bank robbery. You’d need elite-level wealth to justify these prices for such pitiful servings.
