Don't know about authentic, never having been to England, but a rather 
good rendition which meets your constraints can be had at Royal Mile Pub 
in Wheaton, MD.  Also excellent selections of draught beers and a truly 
astounding variety of scotch by the glass.

Try The Telephone Bar on 2nd Ave below 10th St on the west side of the 
street.  It's a sit down kind of place, no take out f&c in newspaper 
cones like in London, but excellent.  Good beer list too.

Um, this has been crossposted to 2 different groups.  The Telephone
bar is in NYC.

Try English Harbour on 14th St. between 3rd and 4th Ave.  I don't have
the exact address or phone number handy, so you'll want to call
directory assistance.  It is a fastish-food kind of place, but the
last time I went (admittedly some time ago) they had very good fish
(your choice of cod, haddock, plaice, etc.).  They also had some other
British-type foods and imported (non-alcoholic) beverages.  Nothing
fancy, but probably the closest thing to authentic I've tried in NYC.
It's also cheap.  I hope it's still open.

Well, it's usually cod or 'addock..and no there isn't anywhere round here.

Some of the diners make a resonable attempt..Mathews in Haymarket, Va is ok but
nothing like Ryde or Brighton..

My personal favorite fish-n-chips venue is Molly's Shabeen  on 3rd Ave between 
22 & 23 Sts. Nice Irish pub setting, huge portions of battered cod for about 
$8.

Also, try the cafeteria-style English Harbour 246 E 14 or 768 9th Ave. You 
have your choice of fish there.
