Poppies – Portobello Road Menu

Poppies Portobello Road is a traditional British fish and chip restaurant at 152 to 154 Portobello Road in Notting Hill. The retro dining room draws on the history of the former bank and butcher shop that occupied the premises, with wood panelling, vintage signs and details celebrating founder Pat Newland. Dine in, takeaway and delivery give visitors several ways to enjoy the restaurant’s classic approach.

Cod and haddock are the central choices, coated in the established house batter and cooked until crisp while the fish remains tender. Halibut, skate, rock, plaice, mackerel, lemon sole and cod roe broaden the catch, depending on availability. A hot seafood platter combines fish bites, scampi, calamari and whitebait for diners who want to sample several preparations.

Chip shop classics extend beyond whole fish. Homemade fish cakes, battered sausages, saveloy and chicken provide familiar alternatives, while children can choose smaller meals. Hand cut chips come with traditional accompaniments such as mushy peas, curry sauce, baked beans, pickled onions, gherkins, gravy and homemade tartare sauce.

Jellied eels connect the menu to London’s historic food culture, and prawn cocktail offers another nostalgic starter. Sticky toffee pudding, Bramley apple pie and soft serve ice cream provide a comforting finish. Beer, wine, spirits and soft drinks make the restaurant suitable for a full sit down meal as well as a quick fish supper while exploring Portobello Road.
