Review Summary

Brit & Chips is widely considered one of the best spots in Montreal for authentic fish and chips, praised for its fresh, crispy batter and generous portions. Guests frequently highlight the diverse menu options, including unique choices like maple syrup batter, gluten-free alternatives, and various fish types like cod, salmon, and haddock. While many visitors rave about the friendly, efficient staff and cozy atmosphere, some note that the venue can feel cramped during peak hours and that dishes can occasionally lean towards the greasier side. Whether dining on the outdoor terrace or grabbing a quick meal near the Old Port, most patrons enjoy a welcoming experience that pairs well with their selection of British-style sides and beverages.

This was our first visit to Brit & Chips but won't be our last. We had lunch on their terrace. The food was delicious & the lovely weather made terrace dining fabulous. We had fish & chips made with cod……..light batter & delicious fish. Our server was Catherine who was extremely personable & attentive. All in all a great experience.

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Came back after over a year (still amazing food & service), but the haddock has been replaced by sole & still as delicious, but a but different, will take it again!

Food looked good, nice presentation. Super greasy fish. Slow to no service. 2 people walked out in front of us after being seated since no one was taking their order.

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 🩷
