About Faulkner’s
Faulkner’s Fish & Chips is a beloved British restaurant in Hackney, East London, serving authentic fish and chips for over 40 years. Founded in 1981 by John Faulkner, our eatery quickly became known as one of the best fish and chips in London, attracting locals and tourists from around the world.
Step inside our Dalston shop and you’ll find a warm, genuine setting with vintage photos and classic tiled floors, echoing decades of history.
To this day, we uphold the tradition of proper British comfort food – from golden fried cod to hearty homemade pies – all prepared with quality ingredients and a passion for great taste.

An East London specialty, rock eel – also known as rock salmon – delivers a meatier texture and rich taste.
