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.

J'y suis allé en espérant manger le meilleur fish n' chips. Résultat? Excellent! La sauce tartare aussi est sur la coche, mais limite sur la quantité pour deux filets de poisson. Ce ne sont pas des chips, seulement des frites. Elles étaient ordinaires & il y avait seulement de la mayonnaise & du ketchup en sachets sur la table. Pas de sel, de poivre ou de vinaigre. Un peu décevant, mais j'y retournerai probablement pour prendre un autre accompagnement.

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.

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

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.
