We had never been to Richmond before and when googling places to eat this one came up. It was delicious. The food was hot. The service was great. We got the Cod and Chips and the Haddock an chips and we ordered the homemade spring rolls.

I will admit, I was a bit skeptical walking in since it wasn't crowded at all. My worries were instantly dispelled after the first bite. The food was amazing, being flavorful and crispy without being too oily. Easily up there as some of my favorite fish and chips. Wonderful service and a place I'd not hesitate to go back to the next day.

Good food, good people/staff, good ambiance! Perfect British Pub vibes! Cute decor for photo ops. Not pictured: Had the beer battered haddock & chips, a scotch egg, and curry puffs; pictured: sausage rolls... all very good! 10/10 would eat again

★★★★★ 5.0 Emmett K. Jennings · Oct 2025

My wife and I certainly enjoyed our first visit to The British Embassy in downtown Richmond! We usually visit new fooderies in the afternoon just before the dinner folks arrive. The cozy restaurant was exceptionally clean and airy. Our charming server was most friendly and courteous as we ordered the cod fish and chips and of course, Guinness to compliment the meal. Our meals were served nice and hot. The fish was very tasty with a mild flavorful batter-coating and the chips were substantially light, fluffy, and mealy, with a soft, cooked potato texture and not greasy. (Unlike the standard crispy, standard-fare French fries from a fast food place.) We chose the sticky toffee pudding as dessert and what a treat! We look forward to our next visit to sample the other British-style offerings.

Great food, attentive staff, and a cozy atmosphere. A unique combination of food as they have both Thai and traditional British fare. For those with celiac or a gluten allergy, they have gluten free fish and chips as well as sticky toffee pudding which my girlfriend confirmed were both delicious!
