Restaurant Review: No Catch - Vegan Fish and Chips


There's nothing finer to do in Brighton than walk along the promenade eating a wodge of chips the size of your face. But it was raining, so we sat inside and ate all the chips instead. This is Brighton's 100% vegan chippie. As well as big fluffy chips, battered (veggie) sausage, and all the standard condiments - they specialise in fishless-fish.

It looks like this:

Thick and juicy plant-based protein (available in "Smoked Haddock" or "Cod" flavours), wrapped in a sheet of seaweed, and coated in thick and crunchy batter. Delicious! The flavour was more intense than the normal sort of Quorn fish-style fingers, chips were as good as any I've had elsewhere, the tartare sauce and aioli were nice - although perhaps a bit cheeky to charge extra for them.

The restaurant is down a steep flight of stairs, but they also do delivery and take-away. There's a few seats available, as well as customer loos.

We couldn't finish all our chips, but the staff were happy to give us a takeaway box. So we munched them on the way home - in the rain.
