Review Summary

Reviews consistently praise Brit & Chips as one of the best fish and chips in Montreal, with cod or other fish battered light and crispy, tender inside, and generous hand cut fries; the tartar sauce, mushy peas, and even gluten free batter get frequent nods, along with impressive sides like apple fritters, calamari, and curry sauces; service is described as friendly, quick and bilingual in a cozy or small setting, though it can get crowded and seating may be limited; some comments mention minor flaws such as occasional oil greasiness or variable portions, but overall the dining experience is seen as authentic, comforting and worth a repeat visit, including for takeout or a casual meal after a day of exploring Old Montreal.

An uninpressionable rating of 1/5 portion & taste on the take out we had in comparison to the one we had dining in. Particularly there was an extremely big difference in portion of the fish which we were very disappointed of. Is the take out quantity different from the in restaurant quantity? & being the same price & item on the menu, why is this the case? The in restaurant experience & especially the portion of fish was conpletelt different 5/5 : Been a while since ive been here, Worth the long wait in line, & several other customers had said so before our turn too. Perfectly crispy & seasoned on the outside & the batter is not thick. Cooked to perfection. Good amount of fish on the inside. For the price this is quality! Service was also just as satisfying My mom is a fish & chip snob, she loves fish & chips but is hard to please. She said it was a terrific experience!

Great little place, & the food was incredible. We tried the scotch eggs, salmon & chips, kebabs, & the maple battered haddock.. WOW. Highly recommend!

Maybe good for some, but the batter was very thick (much thicker than a pogo) & soggy, with a maple syrup note that I personally was a fan of, but my partner was not. The fries were soft & they too had a sweet note which ultimately combined with the batter was too much sugar taste in a main course. The tartare sauce was very nice. We both had the haddock & fries & wished there was some contrast between all the mushy textures.

Just the perfectly fried fish n' chips you'd expect. Super texture to the cod & a nutty, crisp texture for the batter. Generous helping of fries. Cherry ale to wash down. Buzzer for order, bus your tray. Youthful staff & diverse patrons. Grateful for the choice among the elegant "high-rise" restaurants around it on McGill.

Sadly, not a taste of home. For some reason the fish batter tastes off (burnt oil) & the chips were more like fries & somehow raw.

Brit & Chips is my favorite fish & chips place in Montreal. The food is great, I love how crispy the batter is & how soft the fish is. The atmosphere is really casual, & I like sitting on the high bars. I've gone maybe 3-4 times now & have enjoyed it every time.

Fish was fabulous, but the batter was way way too oily. The chips were also good.

Really good fish & chips, about a close as you can get to a chipper here in North America. Only thing missing without be other items like a batter burger or spice burger or scotch egg

Amazing service & really good fish & chips. I usually don't feel so welcome as I was made to feel here. Fish was well battered & flavourful. Fries were amazing as well. The tartare sauce was the highlight for me. My best meal in Montreal & that's saying something. Portion size was good & I had to split it up to share with my friend, which was done for me by the friendly staff.

I loved the different choices of fish & batters. The maple batter was so light & just a tad sweet. Overall the fish, fries & coleslaw were delicious. However the price is pretty high considering the sides aren’t even included.
