Review Summary

Brit & Chips serves classic fish and chips with a light, crispy batter and generous portions, and most reviews describe the fish as fresh and flavorful, with cod, haddock or salmon options frequently praised. The experience is often described as cozy and welcoming, with friendly, attentive service and quick turnarounds, especially at lunch or on a busy day. Diners celebrate the authentic British vibe, the tasty tartar sauce, mushy peas, and occasional house specials like maple battered fish or poutine, with many declaring it among the best fish and chips in Montreal. There are caveats too: some fries can be bland or overly fried, the oil can taste reused, and the gluten free batter or fryer options are not always clear. Seating can be tight, and crowds can make the space feel noisy. Overall, Brit & Chips is viewed as a reliable, comforting spot for well-executed fish and chips, with enthusiastic guests and occasional notes to improve oil management and menu variety.

Fish & chip is one of my personnal favorite meal, & Brit & Chips definitly make the best in town! You have to try the maple syrup haddock, it doesn't taste sweet, but it has a very rich flavor! I also recommend the popcorn tandoori shrimps as a starter, absolutly delicious ! Over the summer they have a very cute terrace a few steps away from the heart of the Old Port. As for dessert, their deep fried oreos & apple doughnut are to die for !

Came back after over a year (still amazing food & service), but the haddock has been replaced by sole & still as delicious, but a but different, will take it again!

Fish ans chips a la sauce érable. Excellent mais pour ceux qui aiment la nourriture grasse. Lourd a digérer. Service impeccable & rapide. La nourriture était bonne mais comme je ne suis pas habitué, très gras & lourd pour moi. Je recommande pour ceux qui aiment ce type de bouffe.

Such a great Fish & Chips spot! The food quality is truly excellent & everything tastes fresh. I absolutely love their shrimp poutine - it's my favourite & I keep coming back for it. Highly recommend this place!

A very decent restaurant having very few options of fish & chips, salads, burgers, desserts & drinks.
The Cod fish & chips was really really good, I loved it.
Calamari & the chilli sause was just okay.
Very friendly staff & atmosphere.

Will not be ordering again. Ordered 2pc Sole with a gluten-friendly batter (not sure if they have a dedicated fryer for the GF items).

The GF batter is crispy but quite greasy, & the batter to fish ratio seems lopsided (so much batter - chunks with zero fish inside).

The tartare sauce was incredibly salty.

Tastes like the frying oil needs to be changed.

Fries were bland.

Edible but woefully mediocre, especially for $25 a meal. Might be better as a dine-in experience?

I found this restaurant on Google before leaving Toronto as I wanted to treat my friend to a good English dinner (she was born in London). Not a disappointment 😀. The food was amazing, best fish & chips I've ever had. Our servers were awesome, very attentive. I even bought a t-shirt to take home 🩷

Great fish & chips place! The food is incredibly savory & the fish is crispy & not overly oily. The only challenge is seating if the weather is too cold. The inside is a bit cramped & small. The staff is kind although I know for the lunch rush they can be quite busy & overwhelmed. Otherwise excellent place for fish & chips!

Cozy little place with good service & delicious fish & chips. I got the maple syrup battered sole & it was absolutely delicious. I really loved the tartare sauce that came with it as well. The employees were kind & full of smiles. I'll definitely be back to try more :)

Staff were great. Mushy peas were truly excellent. Unfortunately the chips were American style fries rather than proper British style chips & the fish was very greasy which is common when the oil is not hot enough.

Another Montreal spot that cured my GF food grief for the weekend. We ordered one GF fish & chips & one regular. I've tried GF fish & chips in Dublin & Malta (Malta being the best yet) & this spot was up there both of the others. Crispy batter, flavorful & crunchy. Service was great, we were there when a big bus arrived but they got our food out very quick given the busy pace.
