If you're craving fish and chips this is a good place to satisfy that craving. There could be a wait depending on when you go - which I feel is an indicator that the food being served is good, hence the crowd.
The restaurant interiors are simple and go great with the seafood vibe. It's definitely a busy place and it was good to see the servers attentive and moving fast. Our food arrived in about 15 minutes of placing the order. We love our cod so we'd ordered cod fish and chips, cod burger, coleslaw ...
Came here with the fam jam after my son’s hockey lessons and it was packed! The wait wound up being much less than they estimated!
There were 2 servers on the floor doing everything including hostessing, food running and bussing which was impressive! Our server was good considering how busy it was and she didn’t seem like she was in the best mood (not unfriendly but all business and no warmth) but we couldn’t help smiling at the other server (with colourful hair) because she was just so energetic, cheerful and so great with the kids and patrons at her tables. It started off slowly and took a while to take our order but once we did the food came fast and furious and our server was very attentive and quick.
The food tasted great and everyone enjoyed their meals. The portions are massive! The onion rings and battered hot dog have the same batter as the fish. The fried oysters were YUM and the steak and mushroom pie had a great crust. The only thing I wasn’t huge on was the tarter sauce. It tasted like the generic stuff you get at the grocery store.
I would definitely recommend stopping by - I hear they have all you can eat during the weekdays!

• tried the Pollock all you can eat for $10.95, it wasn’t bad. I really love the thin crispy batter on their fish but the pollock tastes a little fishy. Fish inside were thin slices inside the batter.
• server kepy forgetting to give us lemon wedges and did not come around to top up my order. They are extremely busy on their all you can eat days. Nevertheless, quality is still great!

• lots of parking available in Columbia strip mall
• opens at 1100, seat yourself wherever you want
• our server was kinda in a rush, we just got there, I guess she was anticipating that it will get busy and wants things out of her way. She also threw the fries that we had "to go" but she gladly gave us a fresh one
• Monday-Wednesday is ALL YOU CAN EAT Pollock & Chips for $10.95 (2017 August), come early!
• 1 piece Halibut & Chips: $13.99 They gave us an extra piece as the one piece was small. Awesome quality, you can see the flakiness of the halibut fish, not overly battered and oily which was perfect! The fries, one of the best one in town. I do not think it is frozen, you can taste the texture of the potato crumbling inside your mouth compared to the ones that are frozen.
• Seafood chowder: meh! Not a good one! Its like your mirapoix with small flecks of fish, I will not order this again, too salty for me
• the Tartar sauce: fresh tasting, cold and they bring it to your table as you order
• the Coleslaw: really good flavour, simple & delightful; although there was a big piece of the cabbage stem on my plate but just ignored it was it was sooo good!
• to start, they give you a huge piece of Portuguese bun, yum!
• by 12 noon, this place is packed! So come early or have a late lunch.
• good place for family dinner, old folks surely love it here!
• $35/2 people without drinks
i brought a group of seniors, who often enjoy fish & chip, here . though there is no reservation for their policy but staff was very friendly to recommend the time to come in to bit the rush hours. food was good and price was fair enough and staff Natasha was excellent fast and nice and efficient and very considerate.
as a group with a big van or bus , it is good to park on street ( 10th St.) and get in and out of the side door with the staff permission. especially for seniors . we highly refer others to experience this English style fish & chip. and we had fun to learn all those slang and we gave every one a nickname such as Mary the Ferry : Faye and Hay: etc ........
I have only been here for the all-you-can-eat fish and chips. So this is just a partial review and rating.
The place looks nicer on the outside than the inside. This doesn't mean that it's ugly inside, not at all, just nicer outside. So, if it's a nice summer day, definitely seat outside.
The food is good, I wasn't blown away by either they fish or the fries. Again, I didn't try other items in their menu, but I can tell you that I would go back here, just not regularly.
An excellent place for English-style fish and chips. Pricing is fair and all the staff and friendly and seem to genuinely enjoy their work. I've often stopped by for salmon and rings to go, and enjoyed the meal packaged in newspaper. There's a weird satisfaction in balling up your newspaper "plate" and tossing it in the compost bin.
Best fish and chips I've tried in Vancouver. The batter is perfection and the fries were plump and crunchy. The Calamari also had a really nice batter, so light and perfectly crisp.
My only critique is that their tartar sauce could have used more pickles.
went here for all you can eat fish and chips, for $12 i can live with that. and the batter is not flavourful but it does bring the crisp after it's freshly cooked. the same restaurant with the one in north burnaby, i prefer this place becase it's nearer to skytrain station, and definitely something to chow down when i'm really hungry and not caring the deep fried intake. never really tried the other menu that they have, but definitely a good trade off for $12 for me to come down here and eat.
servers were attentive and friendly as well and the size of the fish is definitely atleast average.
We had supper here as a family on an all-you-can-eat eat night and we're quite impressed. There was a wait to get in, but once we were seated the food came very quickly. I ordered the calamari dinner which was huge and very good. The prices were cheap. The atmosphere was nice and the service quick. The restaurant was busy the whole time we were there but everything was good. We'll definitely be back. :)
Fast service, decent prices, good portion sizes and tasty food - what more can you ask for?
The fish were fried nicely and were fairly fleshy. My only dislike were the fries as I felt that they could be a bit more crispy. The batter on the fish was just perfect - not thin enough to crumble and fall off but not too thick.
Definitely recommended and would visit again!
