Great fish and chips and even better crab cakes! Sauces are also great. Line up and waiting times can be long though. We went twice and waited 30minutes for our takeout, but well worth the wait.
I didn't enjoy my meal at all. Fish was soft. The chips were too thin and the mushy peas were mashed sweet peas not British mushy peas. Good location but I will not be going back. I was really looking forward to eating here as there were lots of reviews. So disappointing. I had 2 piece halibut and chips, calamari and "mushy peas".
Update: We were back on the Island and decided to try it again after the reply from Trollers that our last meal was unusual. It was so much better this time! The batter was light and crispy as stated in the reply. I am not sure what happened the first time but we thoroughly enjoyed the halibut, the server and the atmosphere this time. There was a gentleman playing the keyboard while we were eating which added to the experience.
My third time at Trollers and they are always awesome! It is a must-visit place for us during our family visits to the island! Their delicious Oyster Burger and Crab Cake are two of my favorite items on the menu. This time was for take out but food is still delicious!
Really good food. First Fish and Chips that I have tried that is not greasy. Very yummy. I will come back for sure!
The halibut and chips maybe the best I've had. I've eaten a LOT of fish and cannot remember better. That said, my memory may not be the best, lol. Whatever the case, the food here is amazing. My wife had the fired clams and they were something special as well.
The walk around the area before sitting is worth the trip, but the food will keep you coming back.
Enjoy!
What a unique place. Right on the wharf, floating on the ocean serving amazing food with amazing service. I ordered for takeout and it was quick despite the lineups and the food was amazing! Fresh fish, light batter and the fries were super tasty. A must when in Nanaimo.
