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.

Fantastic. Best fish & chips ever. Hope I'm not being unfair, but between among all I've had so far in GTA, this is way better. Fresh sauce & amazingly tasteful; chips are crispy & didn't have that breaded thing that many restaurants use in Ontario; fish was juicy & perfectly fried. Not a food critic, just like good stuff.

Best Fish n Chips on this Side of the Pond! Brits rejoice! THIS is the place for you, for all! Well worth hunting down, this slit of a shop was playing futbol on the tellie & serving up some of the best British classics ever! With a Burgundy Lion Al in hand, the fish was fried to perfection & the chips were abundant, the deep-fried Oreos along with the beignets aux pommes will bring a tear to your eye! Lastly, the shrimp salad was nothing short of savory & our applause to the chef! Looking forward to returning again & again with each visit to Montreal!

Good fish & chips, the batter is not too thick or greasy, it's thin light crispy fried fish.

Service was excellent, atmosphere was cute (although not recommended for groups larger than 4), & the food was okay. The cod was a bit dry, the fried skin seemed a tad overcooked in a few spots as well, & it didn't taste seasoned. However, the tarter sauce & garlic mayo was good. You get a huge portion of fries. Id recommend sharing the fish & chips (add 1 extra piece of fish) between two people rather than getting 2 different orders. If you're not starving, 1 order without an additional piece may even be enough.

We had a great stop here! The beer was perfect on such a hot day our food was delicious! We got poutine & pickled cucumbers. The pickles were super tangy & the poutine was incredible! To be honest, this was the only poutine we've ever had in Canada so we aren't experts but we did love it!!!! I wish we were hungrier so we could have tried their fish. The staff was super friendly & helpful!! We're fans for sure!!

My friend & I couldn't help but shook our heads & exclaimed: "Miracle! Miracle!" Considering the current high prices, it can still be sold at such a low price. What is it but a miracle? $20 for a meal, & delicious!

Food is top notch. I got the cod fish & chips. Poutine is one of the best in the city & so are the fries. Only downside is the service & how heavily they pressure you for the tip, even for take out. But the food is sooooo good.

Ordered Haddock Maple Syrup batter. Did not taste the maple syrup at all! & they changed the fries, used to be homefries thicker & sweet. Frozen fries are unappealing! No longer same since new ownership.

Great place in Montréal to get fish & chips. Fish is fresh, & the batter is crispy. Fries are perfectly made. The servers are friendly. The dining room is a bit cramped.
