Had the fish & chips, better than most places in the US but still not as good as most places in the UK.

The fish and chips are great and more than enough in a serving. I’m very impressed with the variety of English items they carry such as the chocolates, biscuits, and other candy. They also have alcohol which is a plus! The chef is always swagged out, funny, and takes the time to explain items on the menu.

I love the food. Amazing Fish n chips & sausage rolls. I love the British biscuits (cookies) and candys. And cool beer selection too. The chef was super nice. My favorite place in the market!

Why is there a 5% service charge on the receipt? For what? In addition to tip? Just adjust your prices and be transparent. Before anyone defends this, would you sell something at one price and then quietly charge an an extra 5% afterwards?

Ordered fish and chips. Fries were great but in my view the fish was not fresh and had an odd taste. My wife tried the fish as well and felt queasy after. Entirely possible that we got unlucky with the choice of fish that day.

I ordered the Govenor's Fish and Chips, delicious. The batter was crisp, the cod was well cooked and flaky, a very large portion of fish. The last bite and I was completely full. Very small portion of mushy peas, but good. Chips were potato wedges but crispy and good. You get a ton. Included is malt vinegar and tartar sauce. So... the tartar sauce was awesome, so so tasty. Will be back. Oh but a can of Coke was $3 and change, pricey.

The sausage roll was fine but a bit underwhelming for the price. The extra 5% ‘service fee’ on the receipt for a to-go pastry was not a fun surprise.

Best Tartar Sauce Ever!What is Tartar Sauce? Tartar sauce is a cold dipping sauce that is usually served alongside seafood, mainly fish. It's a creamy condiment that is known for its rich and tangy flavor. Tartar sauce is a staple condiment at many seafood restaurants because it's mostly used for fried fish and fried oysters.

Was introduced to this spot by my daughter a DC resident. Loved the sausage rolls, and pie. Will definitely visit when I’m back in DC.
