I’m on a mission to find the BEST fish and chips in London! But tell that to a Londoner, and you’ll spark the fiercest battle in the UK. Why? Because "the best" means something different to everyone. Some want that nostalgic, old-school crunch cooked in beef fat. Others want it served with a pint in a classic British pub, and sometimes, you want pure luxury. You can't crown just one winner—so my friend James and I are breaking it down into 4 categories to finally settle the debate of where to eat the best fish and chips in London! From historic chippies to Dover Sole at Corenucopia by Clare Smyth, this is the ultimate fast-paced London food tour.

Everyone in the UK knows the best fish and chips are outside of London 😆
It's so amazing how even over 15 years later, the passion Mark Wiens has for food is still just as strong as it always has been.
Mark is the greatest food vlogger ever. Been watching you for at least a decade. Congrats on your success
One thing about mark he may be all over the world,but he got his family always next to him💪🏾a real family man
Oh my god, you got to meet Clare Smith- trained under Ramsey and one of the most accomplished chefs in the uk. So envious
Been a long time fan of Mark. Out of all of the things hes done, THIS is my ultimate food expedition
Okay, I'm not from the UK, and I've seen some of the comments! "But the fish looks delicious 😮 and perfectly fried! I love rock fish, it's very good! Okay Mark, I'm having fish and chips today! Now I'm really hungry! Thanks for the video 📹 ❤
I’m not a fish and chips person, however, Mark always seems to know how to make everything look delicious and delightful.
This is the video I have been waiting for for 15 years from Marks. Thanks for super nice video from my home city.
I love his choice of hat for a video with you!
As a Londoner I can say that the best fish and chips that I’ve ever had are in Poole, Leeds, Newcastle, Scotland.
When Mark says “Oh! Wow”, it means he genuinely liked the food because he doesn’t express like this with every meal he eats 😁😋
The Legend Mark Wiens in The UK so happy to see!!! Great Video!
Double parked with a pilsner AND a Guiness?? There is something I have never seen before!😀
I love how mark went to places we know rather than most overhyped places, some of the best places are unheard of and you gotta ask locals!
I love Mark, bro never fails to bring passion and appreciation everywhere he goes. Man's perpetually geeked for food. 😂
Thanks James
What an eyeopening experience. Until next time London!
Watching from New Zealand. Fish n chips one of my favourite take outs. Another great video❤
Nice vid Mark,...my wife and I went to London late last year and we had some good fish and Chips at the Balham area. The place is called Seventeen Fish and Chips
