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.

DELISH! Cute little fish & chips place. Half of the space is counter, bar height seating & the back half are small tables. Ordered the cod with chips & tamarind fried shrimp along with a pint of beer. All were delicious! I devoured it all. Casual, easy, fun, & tasty!

Pretty much the best fish & chips I've ever had. & I grew up eating fish & chips in QC. The version of the month (Korean BBQ) omg melt in your mouth outstanding. Super fresh. Terrific marinated cucumbers. Big portions (lots of fries & generously piece of fish). Order one to share & an extra piece of fish. Very friendly & fast service despite being a full house. Cute ambiance. Merci bcp de nous avoir bien nourris ! Update back again for a 2nd visit & it did not disappoint at all. Totally love this place !!!

I was blown away with the fish & chips! I had the haddock & chips with maple syrup batter. The flavor/seasoning was amazing! The server was friendly & the service was great. I visited on my last night in Montreal, but I would definitely visit again if I'm ever in town.

I visited with a friend on our Canadian adventure recently & we found that the shrimp was delicious. He had the poutine, whilst I had the fries & tandoori shrimp (although, we didn't notice any sort of spice) Overall, friendly staff, good portions & I wish I'd tried the battered fish!

The food is excellent. We went there around 2pm. A very clean restaurant. We both had the Cod (Burgundy Lion batter) & fries, the Cod was so good, a big portion of 2 big pieces, very nicely seasoned & fried, tasted so good & was very fresh, & very hot to the last bite. The best Cod I have ever had. The fries portion was big, I could eat only half of it, so tasty. I had Lacroix cider with my food. We did not have dessert since we were very full. Service was very good, polite & pleasant staff, also a fast service. The food is cooked fresh upon ordering. Restaurant is not big but many small tables with 2 chairs, also bar stools around the cooking counter. We discovered the restaurant by coincidence & we are so happy, we did. We will definitely return.

We used to love their fish cakes. My friend & I would stop here each trip to Montreal every few months for lunch - mainly for the fish cakes. Haven't been here since last summer & was just there last week. & what a letdown! The fish cakes are no longer a draw :( The crust is now too salty & the fish/potato/cheese mixture inside isn't as tasty. If you're reading this Brit & Chips manager, please make them like you used to.
