Brit & Chips delivers an authentic British-style culinary experience centered on traditional beer-battered fish alongside an inventive array of potato-based classics. The menu showcases diverse catches prepared with house-made batter, frequently paired with distinctive toppings that elevate the standard fare. Beyond the classic cod and haddock, the establishment integrates Quebecois influence by incorporating various poutine styles featuring rich gravies and fresh cheese curds. Diners encounter a focused selection of fried preparations that prioritize crisp, golden textures and high-quality ingredients sourced for consistency. The environment emphasizes a casual, no-nonsense approach to comfort food where the quality of the frying process remains the primary technical focus. Each serving reflects a commitment to the iconic pairing of seafood and potatoes while maintaining a distinct personality through curated flavor combinations that distinguish the brand within the local food landscape.
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.
Hands down the best fish & chips in downtown Montréal! I've tried almost all their options, & while everything is fresh & tasty, the salmon is by far the best - perfectly crispy on the outside & tender, juicy inside. The batter is light & golden, never greasy, & the fries are perfectly seasoned. The portion size is generous, & everything tastes super fresh.
The atmosphere is cozy & welcoming, & the staff are always friendly & attentive. If you love seafood, this place is a must-visit - I've tried many around the city, & nothing comes close!

This is the Real McCoy, British fish & chips. I ordered the Classic Ale Battered Cod with an extra fillet. Very fresh, hot & tasty. I thought I was on Piccadilly Square. Highly recommend this great little Fish & Chips restaurant. Ask for Alexa because she'll greet you with a great smile & friendly service.
Found this little gem while visiting montreal. There is no shortage of places that offer fish & chips but to find a place that offers a gluten free batter & that actually tastes as good as this place is rare 👌🏼
Ordered trio of'morue style poulet chaud sandwich' (special of the month). Fish was tasty but there was only one small piece - really disappointing for the price $$
The sandwich was mostly two huge slices of thick bread with sauce & green peas.
Fries were delicious & salad was good.
1er visite : Très difficile à trouvé un stationnement, quand on viens de l'extérieure, 3 fois le tour des pâté de maison. En plus s'était dans la semaine à 11h00 du matin!!! On nous répond juste en anglais au dépars! J'ai essayé 2 fish & chip, Celui du mois la Morue au Curry avec morceau mangue (24$), avec salade c'est 28$, dommage pas venu avec par défaut, j'ai pas pris, car 4$ pour surement un petit. Très bon au goût du la morue avec panure, & les épices & sauce, mangue & curry, l'un des 2 morceaux étais pas mal cuit foncé, frites bonnes maison & avec citron. Le second à 21$ (pas de salade encore ou trop cher en extra) étais bon l'aiglefin avec érable... avec sauce & citron. Dommage que la salade soit pas fournis à ce prix ou vendu à 4 $ pour surement une petite portion, mais les sauces & épices, sorte de poissons & la mangue étais bien. Il manque juste un peu de finition, 1 des 2 poissons étais presque brûlé, pourtant il étais pas trop occupé par les clients & commandes & les citrons, pas foutu d'enlevé les noyaux apparents au moins, car il attendais la fin de la cuissons des frites & poissons. Ils avaient le temps & finalisé un peu mieux pour enlevé les gros noyaux laissé sur les citrons. On en vois de plus en plus garroché & non finalisé un peu le tout pour ce type de plat! Voir photos!
