    a nice meal in Goulston Street .

    Hi,
    I visited Goulston Street today, I was to find that the "Happy days " fish and chip restaurant has now extended to the famous entrance and is now a tastfully JTR themed establishment.
    It even has the chalked message framed in more or less the exact position on the entrance.
    Well worth a visit and has probably the best fish and chips in London.

    Regards.

    Silly question, how much was a feed of f&c

    There are two ways to be fooled, one is to believe what isn't true, the other is to refuse to believe that which is true.

      Cod and chips twice and two drinks came to £21.00.
      I think take away is cheaper.

        Ouch, seems steep, but then I usually think that about English prices.

        Don't know how you poor buggers afford to eat.

        That's about $50 here I'd expect to pay about $30 most places here, or a lot more in a fancy seafood place.

          Well this is London after all, however I would proberbly pay about £7.00 locally here in the south.
          I expected to pay more actually, but your right eating out over here ain't cheap.

                Important question...how do they spell the J-word in the chalked message?

                BTW, on my visit to London in 2011, I was aided in finding the site of the GSG by a man selling Jellied Eels out of a stand called "Tubby Isaac's Jellied Eels" or something very similar. Is he still around?

                      I think that the current disposition and decor of the restaurant was finished a year or two ago. And yes, the fish and chips are fab!
