It was alright

I was excited to visit here, and service was good and always prefer a fully vegan place, but it didn't really make me feel I was in a seaside chippy. The chips were nice, but did not resemble chippy chips I can occasionally get from regular chippies with a vegan/chips only fryer (or I can get from a regular fish and chip shop, if I don't mind cross-contamination from the fryer).

The cod and haddock were apparently the same, but the haddock had a bit more of a smokey flavour, so I ordered that. It felt like soy chicken sticks with some seaweed. Not the shape of a fillet with flaky fishness.

Thought might have been some animal related decor as it's owned by Earthling Ed (at least, I think it still is?).

Vegan fish

We don’t really miss the taste of fish or anything as vegans. But as we are visiting England, of course we had to try at least once the famous “Fish n chips”. And luckily the “fish” at The No Catch Co didn’t taste too fishy.

We followed the recommendation and tried the cod with chips, as well as the jumbo lemon shrimps. Also had the kids menu with tofish and chips.
We actually liked the tofish the best. Toddler like it too; basically fried tofu with seaweed.
The shrimp texture was really shrimpy – as far as we can remember.

Service was friendly and fast.
You have to get down a couple of stairs before entering the restaurant; so not really accessible.

Solid food

We had the prawn tempura and large plate of cod fish and chips. It was good but could have had a bit more taste. The chips were great.
Definitely would go there again. Would love to try some of the other options.

Perfect nostalgic fish & chips

Wow! The fish here tasted so realistic! The chips were crispy and fluffy. My non vegan friends all loved it too.

The regular was more than enough food for me.

Cons: Mushy peas disappointing

It was okay

I was quite excited to eat here, knowing it was all vegan fish and chips. The place itself was easy to find. The restaurant has quite small limited seats and a little stuffy. When I arrived there was rubbish on tables etc. Nevertheless, I ordered fish and chips, and at the time, I felt fine eating, but I have to say it was incredibly oily. I had a bad belly for the remaining of the evening. Its a lil pricey aswell. Spent 40 pounds for two persons fish and chips.

Pros: Availability

Cons: Prices, Restaurant was a messy at the time I came.

Spot on !

I went two times there to get lunch :
- First time, I had battered sausages with chips, and mushy peas
- Second time, I got the “tofish” and chips, mayo and a ginger beer.
Great service great food close to the beach = nice meal

Pros: Food, Service, Location

Unreal

Beautiful vegan fish and chips on Brighton sea front. Busy shop but lots of seating inside. I had the vegan tempura prawns which were okay but I thought my partner’s ‘tofish’ was nice and better value.

Pros: Atmosphere, Food, Location

So good!

I need to know how they do it, since it is remarkable how much it tastes like fish and chips, even my omni sister was impressed. The fish was great, but the prawns were definitely my favorite and can’t be missed. I’m a big fan!

Pros: Prawns, Fast, kind service, The fish!!!

Cons: The fries weren’t my thing, but very traditional

Perfect for those seafood cravings!

Love what they do here! The lemon shrimp was my favorite. The tofish bites are great with the tartare sauce and the rest of our party preferred those. Great, peppery mushy peas too. Good tempura prawns and calamari as well. The name is so clever too. It was a shame to see them closing at 7 as there were still lots of people trying to come for food. I wish there were more of these all over.

Is what it is. Tofu fish & chips. You get a lot for a regular, too much for me. Quality high. Enjoyed Bjork playing in the background. Please clean your outside steps though!

Pros: Quality, Quantity, Irn Bru

Cons: Clean your outside steps!

Amazing Vegan Fish and Chips

An amazing 100% vegan fish and chips shop. It's not often as a vegan you come across vegan fish and chips but No Catch Co has a variety of delicious options including vegan cod, haddock, calamari, prawns etc. The chips themselves are very nice, too.

I think the 5 star rating No Catch Co already speak for itself as the food is great and it's amazing to be able to enjoy a famous dish in British cuisine and have a variety of "seafood" without unethical practices and impact on our oceans.

Very good and a must go-to if you're a vegan in Brighton!

Pros: Great food, Totally vegan

Awesome fsh n chips

The chips were amazing and the fish was good, We had the smoked Tofish & the "cod" special however they tasted almost identical but the texture was different.
We also had the lemon "prawns" & "scampi" all was good.

Pros: All vegan, Lots of options, Fab chips

No Catch co

It's nice to have "fish" and chips again, and the fact that it's an all-vegan business is even better.
Great flavour and texture, and fantastic batter. Would recommend
I wish there was something like it closer to home

Pros: All vegan, Great batter, Good value

Sensational

If you missed fish & chips since turning vegan then this will well and truly scratch that itch. Brilliantly authentic and more proof we absolutely don’t need to be harming animals for our meals. A must visit if in Brighton.

Pros: Authentic taste, Good value, On the sea front

AMAZING

I can’t describe how much I had missed ‘proper’ fish and chips. If you’re in Brighton, ITS A MUST. I had the Smoked Haddock and Chips…perfection. The batter, incredible!

Just to note, they’re closed Monday and Tuesdays.

Low key seafront shop

We opted to try a few things, calamari, tofish and chips, and battered sausages. Tartare sauce was good with everything. I liked the curry with the battered sausages. The tofish bites were okay. (I am comparing to fish and chips from The Good Grub In Eastbourne, which were an innovative use of banana blossoms.) Calamari was slightly rubbery and the sausages were good.
All in all, nice bites for a seaside vegan restaurant!

We ordered the tofish supper with battered sausages and mushy peas at the side.
The food was delicious with the tofish in particular being a major highlight. A must visit for any vegan visiting Brighton.

Best vegan fish alternatives

We ordered the smoked tofish & chips, calamari, lemon shrimp and tartare sauce to takeaway. It was prepared quickly and the staff were friendly😄

We ate on the beach which is very just opposite the road. I'd never tried calamari or shrimp before even when I wasn't vegan, but I enjoyed the shrimp. The calamari was awful - to me it tasted like a piece of rubbery plastic, but my partner who had eaten calamari before said it was very realistic so if you miss calamari you'll like this alternative!

The tofu-fish was lovely and the chips were the best we'd had in a long time, super crispy but not too oily. Tartare sauce tasted exactly how I remember it.
