The fish was perfect & that tartare sauce is some of the best I've ever had.

Good fish & chips & dessert the apple fritters best I got so far in my life, moist & bouncy with just the perfect crust around it & it comes with a caramel sauce so good don't forget to add the ice cream help cleanse the palate & go back to the fritters, service friendly & there is an ambiance of music but doesn't prevent you from earring people around your table.

Yeah it's good! But the shrimp popcorn was a joke, such small amount & not worth it at all!!!!! Wish the fish batter stayed crispy! The fries are ight.The coleslaw is amazing! The tartare sauce is good! They have vinegar, mayo & ketchup on the side, thanks !

Great service, friendly staff, amazing food & drinks.
Despite the sauce on top of fish, it was still crispy. It was amazingly soft inside & goes well with coleslaw.
My server was very sweet & friendly, it was very nice to talk to her.
Definitely will come back if I visit Montreal again.

Came in on a weekly night & easily found a table.

Tried the fish of the month (sole fish) which was lightly drizzled with sweet soy sauce & comes with kimchi mayo. If I disregard the attempt to add Asian flavours, I would say it's a crunchy & well cooked fish. As an Asian, I would prefer the kimchi mayo to have real kimchi kick so that it can balance the greasiness. The fish my friends ordered was darker than brown (slightly burnt) but the fish itself is ok.

Poutine was good, cheesy & nicely savoury.

I would say this taste pretty much like the ones I had in London 👍🏻

Service was great, the female staff attending to us (sorry didn't catch her name) was attentive & helpful.

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!

The fish & chips is easily the best one I ever had. Amazing crunch & the breading is not too thick & not at all soggy. The tartare sauce is so good. Definitely a must try if you are in the area.

We stopped by this fish & chip shop in Montreal because they offer gluten free battered fish, & it was such a great find. The portions were huge, two big pieces of fish, & you'd never be able to tell the gluten free one from the regular.

The fries were homemade & perfectly done, & both the tartare sauce & curry sauce were spot on. It does get super busy for dinner, so we went right when they opened for lunch, which worked out perfectly. Classic fish & chips done right, with the bonus of being gluten free friendly without sacrificing taste.

Montreal is not the city to come to for exceptional fish & chips, however, if you happen to find yourself craving it while you're in the city then this is a fine place to tide you over. Though if you're used to great fish n' chips, you'll have to keep looking. Great decor tho!

The tarter sauce was a bit stodgy, the vinegar lacked punch, & the fries were on the mushier side. The fish was cooked fairly well though & the batter they used was inoffensive. It'll be a perfectly palatable meal to most.

I will say our service was quite poor, we had to refill our own glasses with water we brought from a hike on numerous times, the server didn't come by even once. We even had to go to the front & ask for the bill at the end & that was the first we saw the staff after they gave us our food.

Really good fish & chips as well as popcorn shrimp. Uniqueness to the batter & really similar to the UK with the sides such as curry sauce & mushy peas. Interior is really cute & reminds me of chippys I've been to in England, good patio as well!

J'ai beaucoup aimé mon saumon & chips! Portion généreuse & une bonne sauce!
Je ne mets pas 5 étoiles car nous avions pris une assiette de calamars frits & là par contre la portion était vraiment douteuse pour le prix … dommage!

Très bon fish&chips. Portions généreuses autant pour le poisson que les frites.
Peut-être revoir la sauce tartare...
Je recommande les commandes à emporter ou la terrasse en été en raison de l'odeur de friture.

Expérience ambivalente dans l'ensemble mais je ne reviendrais pas pour manger sur place, peut-être pour une commande à emporter.

Points positifs:

- Le poisson est savoureux, tendre & semble frais. La sauce tartare est également très savoureuse. J'ai apprécié la proposition culinaire.
- Plusieurs options au menu pour ce type d'établissement

Points à améliorer:

- Le décors serait à rafraîchir (surtout la section avec les tabourets surélevés). Ce n'est pas invitant du tout. On n'a pas envie de consommer sur place. Je m'attendais à une expérience beaucoup plus empreinte de la culture anglo-saxonne.
- Il serait bien de cultiver une ambiance plus britannique pour ajouter au concept. De la musique Reggaeton dans un restaurant britannique. Honnêtement?
- Les employés sont polis mais trop occupés à discuter entre eux pour se soucier des clients. & pourquoi un service aux tables? Honnêtement, dans un endroit comme celui-ci, c'est inutile. Surtout celui offert ici. On devrait juste pouvoir commander au comptoir & aller manger'en salle'.
- Les frites sont correctes, sans plus. Elles semblaient avoir été faite dans de l'huile âgée.
- Un des cuisiniers est revenu de sa pause cigarette à l'extérieur & ne s'est pas lavé les mains avant de retourner à son poste.
- Mon verre d'eau avait encore des traces de rouge à lèvres.

Décevant

Très bonne place si vous avez une envie de fish & chips - il y a du choix en plus. Ils font aussi une poutine qui était bonne. Juste un petit bémol sur la sauce d'accompagnement qui arrive dans un pot en plastifié (pourquoi?). Mais je recommande :)

Solid meal. Get the shrimp. & the chips are a nice snack when I'm in the area. I don't like how they decrease the portion when you buy them together. & your clothes will smell like the fryer if you stay for longer than an hour. Beware. Shrimp was good. tartare sauce was hit or miss. Chips was phenomenal

Prefect fried salmon to dip with tartare sauce. Those fries were prefect texture that are not too crispy. Definitely try the salmon 😁👍

The fish tastes bland without the tartare sauce. The tartare sauce is not made in-house. It comes in a small condiments package, didn't have enough. I ordered coleslaw, & it tastes very vinegar, again, not made in-house. Taste like those you find in a big jar at the supermarket. Very disappointing!
