• Fish • Holloway

Booked 24 times today

We do take a limited number of online bookings but walk-ins are very welcome (and encouraged)!Tired of the loosely French inspired humdrum of restaurants popping up across the city of London? Do you like holidays? Do you like cold drinks and warm service? If you've answered yes to one or more of these then perhaps Tollington's can refresh both your pallet and your mindThe idea came from a mirror in an antiques market and a love for a more informal approach to dining, the result a chippy in North London with church pews bolted to the walls to be leaned on and eaten from. The focus is on fish but the menu transcends just fish, leaving no stone unturned in the never ending quest for flavour Split between two rooms, the kitchen and bar shared by customers as they perch on bar stools and enjoy dinner and a show. The back room - lower lighting, lower seating, a slight calm compared to the front room. Works of art from friends of the restaurant adorn the walls and floors

Fantastic food and some great recommendations from the team. A little tight on the bar, but the plates are small and get cleared quickly. Highly recommend.

You need to try the mushroom pasta! So many people talk about how good the lasagna is (which it is), however, their pasta is also incredible. Have one of the best evenings ever!
