The Laughing Halibut is a family run fish and chip restaurant at 38 Strutton Ground in Westminster. Established in the early 1980s, it has become a familiar stop for local workers, residents and visitors seeking straightforward British comfort food close to St James’s Park and Victoria Street.

Fish is cooked fresh to order in traditional batter, producing a crisp golden coating around flaky fillets. Cod, haddock, plaice, skate, rock and halibut provide a broad choice, while grilled fish, scampi, calamari and fishcakes offer alternatives to the classic battered portion.

Chips are prepared throughout the day and can be accompanied by familiar sides such as mushy peas, beans, curry sauce or gravy. Burgers, chicken, sausages and vegetarian choices widen the selection, and smaller children’s portions make the restaurant practical for a family meal.

Separate dine in and takeaway menus suit both a seated lunch and a quick meal on the move. Generous portions, simple service and a location near several Westminster landmarks have helped The Laughing Halibut maintain the character of an independent traditional fish and chip shop for more than three decades.

Address: 38 Strutton Ground, Westminster, London SW1P 2HR, United Kingdom
