A classic, greasy, fish and chips joint. The fish always has a crunchy and fresh batter to it. They have AYCE from Mon-Weds which is a really good deal, albeit super unhealthy! It is a popular place for high school students to go during lunch break, as Burnaby North Secondary is a few minutes walk away.
If you are looking for fish and chips you can't go wrong coming here. Hot and fresh out of the fryer. The only thing I would like to see if they started making their own tartar sauce instead of store bought.
I would recommend this restaurant.
Monday - Wednesday. All you can eat fish and chips. You get a soda with that as well free refills. Juicy hot battered fish that will burn your mouth, no pain no yummy, but with some fresh dank tartar sauce and you got a nice sexy time in your mouth. Hot fresh fries as well, kinda like Triple O's fries. Before you start, wave the waitress down and ask for another plate cause you're a monster. You're here to eat get your pesos worth. Eat at least 2 plates before you leave. Delicious.
They have all you can eat M, T, W. Great price for all you can eat too. It's busy around dinner time so do come early. The batter is perfect...not to thick. This is our go to place when we are craving fish and chips.
Atmosphere: It's always busy around dinner time, lots of yelling in the kitchen, people entering and leaving. Love it. Service: Friendly people and servers who work hard for their tips. Bottom line: I grew up eating Cockney Kings fish and chips so there is a slight bias. But over the years, the quality has been consistently good. Their chips aka fries are truly the pinnacle of fries. They are the best, hands down. I do this thing with their packaged ketchup and tartar sauce and combined them together. I think it becomes a Thousand Island-like sauce and I dip my fish and chips into it. Drool...
Mmmmmm so good!! Best fish and chips ever. So worth the price. Homemade tartar sauce is amazing. All together just a great place. definitely a must try!!
This place is by my old high school and now 10 mins away from where I go now, SFU! I've never actually tried the Fish and chips here, but their poutine is SO DELICIOUS. A good sized portion for $5.25 and with lots of gooey cheese, hot gravy and freshly made chips (fries)! I come down from campus sometimes when I'm craving these!
I drove by this restaurant after work. People said that the fish and chips were good here, so I gave it a try. I was asking for to go as I did not want to eat the fish and chips at the restaurant by myself.
The interior design shows that if is a very old and classic British type of restaurant. I visited this restaurant around 5pm. The restaurant was having some customers eating in. Some customers were waiting at the counter or entrance of the restaurant and ordering take out. So did I. The restaurant has an open kitchen, so everybody can see how they cook the fish and chips as well as other food. All the servers were very nice and friendly. One of the servers took my order wrong. I asked for a one piece of halibut and chips but she entered two pieces for me. I corrected her politely and said I wanted to order the one piece one. She apologized a couple times.
Waiting for the take out was very short, so I as a customer who doesn't like to wait for a super long time could pick up my order quickly. I was very happy! I told the server that it was my first time to try the fish and chips here. He said the fish was really good and are the fish here every day. Haha..
I brought the fish and chips home. The halibut was very crispy and tender. I loved it!! The fries were just average. I could have eaten better fries somewhere else but I think the most important thing was the fish!
In terms of pricing at this restaurant, I think their prices are fair and reasonable. They are located right on East Hastings, so the visibility on the street is quite good. They have parking in front of the restaurant.
I wouldn't mind to come back and eat again!
no matter what happens i think i'm still a big fan of all you can eat, deep fried, and carbs. And this place have it all for all you can eat fish and chips every monday to wednesdays :D the place is in a open mall type of setting. what i always wondered is the place is often filled with seniors, and yet i have always wondered that these kind of food are not always the best option to consume.
but never theless the food here is definitely okay, and for the price for all you can eat, if i can eat 8 or more pieces of fish and 2 refilled fries, i'll be alright and left the restaurant with a smile on my face. so yes the food hmmmmm the fish okay i they use pollack if i'm not mistaken for the all you can eat, definitely okay, although salmon is definitely my favorite, and it's not super super oily, but definitelyl deep fried, and the batter is okay, still thicker than what i want them to be, but still okay and crispy.
overall i would love to be here once in a while chowing down the fishes for a deepfried fish and chips cravings.
There was a wait list when we arrived. There were a few empty tables. However, the waitresses had not gotten around to cleaning them. We were seated after about 10-15 minutes. Baby-Paca mentioned how Cockney Kings would be a super chill place to work, since everyone moved at their own pace.
On Mondays-Wednesdays, Cockney Kings offers all you can eat fish and chips for $10.95. Initially, I was just going to order off the menu, since I've been trying to reduce calorific intake (without much accomplishment, because let's face it, food is too good, and I get really hungry whenever I have classes. All that brain power, right?!). But after looking at the prices, I changed my mind seeing as all you can eat was obviously a much better deal. The paper setting has Cockney slangs printed on them, and it has colouring, connect the dots, etc. on the back to keep kids entertained. I always have a good laugh going through the placemats while waiting for food to arrive.
The all you can eat comes with bottomless soda pop. Baby-Paca had 2 refills of her ginger ale before I even finished one glass. The fish in the all you can eat fish and chips is the pollock variety. We had a whole bottle of Cockney Kings' delicious tartar sauce at our disposal. The pollock was piping hot, flaky, moist and tender. The British style batter was fried to crispy golden perfection without being overly greasy. However, I would've liked if the fish itself was seasoned as it lacked sodium if eaten without tartar sauce. As for the chips, they were fresh and full of potato-y goodness, crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.
Baby-Paca and I had a satisfying meal. I had ruined my diet plans for the day, but it was worth it. Since we've moved back to the North Burnaby area, I think we'll come by more often now that we actually remember this place. Baby-Paca said she's heard that the poutine here was good, but they had run out of cheese curds. I guess we'll have to save it for next time!
