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.

Maybe good for some, but the batter was very thick (much thicker than a pogo) & soggy, with a maple syrup note that I personally was a fan of, but my partner was not. The fries were soft & they too had a sweet note which ultimately combined with the batter was too much sugar taste in a main course. The tartare sauce was very nice. We both had the haddock & fries & wished there was some contrast between all the mushy textures.

Just the perfectly fried fish n' chips you'd expect. Super texture to the cod & a nutty, crisp texture for the batter. Generous helping of fries. Cherry ale to wash down. Buzzer for order, bus your tray. Youthful staff & diverse patrons. Grateful for the choice among the elegant "high-rise" restaurants around it on McGill.

Sadly, not a taste of home. For some reason the fish batter tastes off (burnt oil) & the chips were more like fries & somehow raw.

I find that there were too many fries on the plate, & I'm not sure why the mushy peas are not automatically included with the fish & chips platters (which they traditionally are)... The pricing seems a bit steep for the portion size... although the quality is acceptable.

It was the first time going back after Covid. Honestly it was a little bit disappointing. Regardless the price the fish was very good , French fries was so so . Talking about the service, it has been changed a lot . It became to a fast-food restaurant like McDonald's , therefore everything is self-service including dinner in .

Friendly staff. You get a buzzer to go pick up your food when it is ready so no table service. This is a small place. There are some tables at the very back near the toilets but we sat at the breakfast bar type seating. Food is served on trays. Way too many chips but overall food was good. Just a pity that for the money no sides (peas or salad)were included

As someone who lived in Scotland & misses a good fish & chips, Brit & Chips fills the void! Everything was great (especially good chips)! Service was quick & the staff was friendly. Will 100% be coming back!

Amazing service & really good fish & chips. I usually don't feel so welcome as I was made to feel here. Fish was well battered & flavourful. Fries were amazing as well. The tartare sauce was the highlight for me. My best meal in Montreal & that's saying something. Portion size was good & I had to split it up to share with my friend, which was done for me by the friendly staff.

I loved the different choices of fish & batters. The maple batter was so light & just a tad sweet. Overall the fish, fries & coleslaw were delicious. However the price is pretty high considering the sides aren’t even included.
