About this restaurant

Lively
Good for groups
Charming

Poppie’s is renowned for authenticity – and it’s little wonder, with born and bred
East-end proprietor, Pat ‘Pop’ Newland, at the helm. Pop’s career in the fish and chip business started in 1952 when, aged 11, he got a job on Roman Road cutting up copies of The Daily Mirror to wrap fish and chips in. With decades of experience behind him, ‘Pop’ founded Poppie’s. The shops are filled with retro memorabilia from Pop’s childhood, The uniforms channel a 1950s vibe, and the music is tailored to each shop. Dining in one of Pops restaurants is an experience with retro vibes and iconic looks from the decades. For instance, Seventies Formica and Anaglypta wallpaper will be just one of many pieces of kitsch decor on show.

Experience was excellent except for the pricing and the non availability of cod. Was far too expensive. Have dined at other restaurants in London eating the exact same meal for far less money. Food was excellent. Service was excellent. Ambience was excellent. The pricing was not excellent. I ordered cod and chips only to be told the cod had run out. Why wasn't cod ordered when stocks of that were low?

The food was not as good as expected. It was quite expensive. And I felt fooled when I was about to pay because the waiter made me pay for optional tip.
