Having opened in 1914, Golden Hind is a good, reliable, centrally located fish restaurant that does great fish and chips. Originally owned by Italians and now run by Greeks, the menu pays homage to both cuisines with feta cheese fritters and burrata. Also, it’s slap bang in between Oxford Street and Madame Tussauds<\/a>, so perhaps a good lunch option if you’re walking between the two!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
