Was there last night for supper. We ordered haddock and chips. The haddock was very good, light batter and perfectly cooked, not greasy at all. However, the fries needed a huge improvement, the last time I was at Britts was about 4 or 5 years ago and the chips were excellent, very similar to a real English chippy. The fries we had yesterday tasted almost like they were reheated. They were very tough, could hardly stick a fork into them. They certainly were not made from fresh cut potatoes. They also were hard and sharp enough to cut gums. Also the vinegar could not penetrate the hard shell of the chips.
I would recommend the fish and many of the extras, however, I would recommend caution with the chips.
ps
I am a transplanted Brit and have eaten many fish and chip meals in Britain. I miss the News of the World wrapping and the use of fingers, using a knife and fork wasn’t considered proper etiquette 😊
About as close to the real deal as you can get. The chips taste authentic with that aftertaste you grow to love. Malt vinegar at each table, and generous portions of fish to boot. The typical fish and chip sides, mushy peas, beans, curry sauce or deep fried "x" (fill in the blank) best value to get the family meal but make sure to bring a family.
Batter had a nice crispy crust. Fish was cooked perfectly. Service was good. I'll be back. My British buddy brought me here. I figured it must be good because the Brits like there fish& chips.
HOLY FISH AND CHIPS, best fish and chips place I have tried in Edmonton! My girlfriend and I ordered the works (2 pieces of COD, 2 pieces if haddock, onion rings, fires and two sides - we got coleslaw and bread), initially we thought it was pretty pricey. But, upon receiving it the pieces of fish were huge, like full fish huge (ish). I loved it and the service was kind and fast, I highly recommend this place to anyone who is craving fish and chips. Cheers!
Newly renovated. Place looks great. Gives me the feeling of having a meal back in the UK. Their deep fried oyster is delicious. Fish are fresh. Highly recommend for a taste of UK.👍👍👍
We come here often because my hubby is a Brit and loves fish and chips. We've tried different restaurants but he agrees these are the best in Edmonton. Fish and chips are greasy no matter where you go, so we share an order. We love the fried oysters too!
Amazing fish & onion rings! Recommend the halibut !
MOUTH WATERING FISH AND CHIPS. My husband and myself come to both locations on the regular. The food is spectacular!!!!! The staff are so sweet, helpful and generous!!!
Yes the food is greasy, ITS DEEP FRIED!!! WHAT WOULD YOU EXPECT! The batter melts in your mouth as soon as it touches your tongue!!
The home made tartar is to die for!!
If you show the staff appreciation, they ALWAYS do something for you in return!!!
I love BOTH locations of Brits and recommend it as I know a lot of fish lovers who'd agree with me that Brits is the best in town!!
One of our top places to eat. Brits argyll location is amazing. We have been here 3 times in the last 2 months and every time we go we leave very happy. Service is great and everyone is pretty friendly. Love the selection of UK sodas. The fish is always amazing, batter is delicious and not too heavy. We highly recommend the halibut! Absolutely worth the money!
Greasy goodness. Go here knowing what you are in for. Its a lot of batter and deep fry, is anyone seriously going here expecting light, healthy fare? Some of the best fish and chips in Edmonton in my opinion. And apparently the best gluten free fish and chips in Edmonton as well according to my family. The fish is always flakey, and the batter always crispy. My biggest peeve with fish and chips is when its soggy, that has never been the case for me here. I can see what some people are saying about it maybe being over battered and over greasy but I would absolutely take that over soggy any day.
Oh! And try out the fried mushrooms to! really good, and I don't know of a single other place you can get them.
