My partner & I stopped by for a quick bite & tried the classic London fish & chips ($18.75 + tax, though oddly listed at $24.75 on their website). The overall experience was okay.
The woman at the counter was friendly, & the atmosphere seemed good-energy. The food came out quickly. The fish was nicely cooked with a good fish-to-breading ratio. The breading was on the thinner side & cooked a bit too crunchy for my taste. The fries were classic Quebec greasy spoon style-dark, mushy, greasy. Not bad for that genre, but ours were clearly not freshly fried & arrived cold. The coleslaw was cool & fresh; my husband enjoyed it, but I found it watery & heavy on the onion. tartare sauce was average, which is fine.
The biggest downside for me was the'tip-flation.' For counter service & cold fries, the suggested tip options started at 15% with no way to enter a custom amount. That felt like a cash grab on an already expensive fast food meal & left a bad taste. A little suggestion to the owners: research shows that setting high minimum tip prompts can actually reduce tipping overall.
Bottom line: I might go again if I'm very hungry & in the area-the location is convenient & the food is acceptable. I will be prepared for tip request & tip cash like I did today.
Le fish & chip & les crevettes bang bang sont un délice, & que dire du service exceptionnel, apres avoir ete servi par Julie avec sa joie & son sourire, je crois que Isaak passe définitivement en 2eme position dans mes employés préféré 😉
Wow ce restaurant a fait le meilleur fish & chips que j'ai mangé dans ma vie ! Je suis un marin & pourtant, je ne serai jamais à la hauteur du poisson que j'ai goûté
Food was delicious, hot & healthy. Great value meal & generous servings. Their fish & chips with lemon & fennel (Panko citron & fenouil) may have been the best fish & chips I have ever had.
Le Shack du Pêcheur Express shares the restaurant space with la Belle Province, a hamburger & fries operation. The dining area is common, & they each occupy half of the kitchen counter where food is ordered. I should have taken greater note that by far more customers were ordering from the hamburger side. I ordered a vegetarian Poké bowl & found it ho-hum. I have only had one other Poké bowl & found it lacking as well, so maybe I just do not like that particular dish. My wife ordered the Greek salad. Now, typically, you have to hunt down the four or five black olives in the salad. This one had what looked like at least half a can of black olives dumped on the top. The feta was in tiny diced cubes & had little taste. The rest was some bits of pepper & maybe some lettuce. The olives were way over the top & my wife could not finish it. However, my son said his order of fish & chips was good & the piece of fish was big. Bottomline, if you go there, take the fish & chips or join the crowd at la Belle Province.
