Golden Kitchen - HARROW

I have been visiting the golden kitchen in north harrow for 40 years. it's as magnetically appealing now as it was when I was 9. a family-run business with good, old-fashioned hospitality and high-quality food in the heart of their ethos, why should they go somewhere else? I have lived in many parts of the country and had fish and chips in numerous restaurants, but that remains the best – without asking. the load was unexpectedly closed for 2 weeks in november and I think the whole harrow was shocked. it is such a mainstay of our local landscape. but now it is reopened, it is better than ever. whether eating or taking off, eating is always perfectly cooked and...read more

Regular readers of my reviews will know that I am extremely fussy about Fish and Chips. I have visited every single fish bar within a 5 mile radius in my search for a good piece of cod and chips. The Golden Kitchen in North Harrow is definitely amongst the top 3. I used to visit here as a child and teenager, and the food was great. Then it started slipping, and a few years before their retirement, the quality of food from the previous owners went seriously downhill. The new owners have now settled in and do an amazing job of serving quality fish and chips. Yes, the previous owners, Petros and Anastasia had a huge loyal customer base. They were lovely friendly people, serving good food; but that declined. The Golden Kitchen has vastly improved and now has some of the best cod and chips available locally. These guys are experienced, and certainly know how to prepare great food. Highly Recommended.

Great place. New owner is very friendly and the food is as good as it ever was. Would not hesitate to return and also sit inside now that restrictions are lifted.

Absolutely delicious. The fish portions were a good size and cooked perfectly; one piece in batter and the other in Matzo meal. The Large portion of chips was huge. The mushy peas may have been a bit watery. We had placed our order in person earlier in the day for collection that evening, and everything was ready and waiting for us at the scheduled time. It was delicious.

This place used to be fantastic but it seems to be taken over by someone else now. The service is slow even when there aren't people waiting and the service just isn't what it used to be. The food is still great but they're going to lose a lot of customers if they don't sort things out.
