I love yelp.
50% of reviews "batter is too heavy"
50% of reviews "batter is too light"
I love the additional people "they waste condiments" (NO you wasted them by not giving them back)
"Portions are OK/too small/too big/but you wont leave hungry" - I have the appetite of a Blue Whale, I did not leave hungry, and given the amount of food i ate, I almost didn't make it out of the picnic bench.
"too expensive" - for a pound of fries and half pound of Halibut you paid $11. Unreal. If you bought the same ingredients at Pusateris or St Lawrence Market, you wouldn't have money left to buy oil to fry it all in.
Review:
This is the kind of place that everyone is so happy with their food that everyone just started talking to eat other rather than pounding the food in their face.
Its amazing.
Yes, the people are lovely. When I asked for my tartar sauce, they happily coughed it up. The spot is amazing. The food is so incredibly good, that I just want it everyday. Its different from other fish and chip places, the batter has a lot of flavor, rather than just crunch.
My wife ordered the fried shrimp, which I tried desperately to finish for her. FOR HER.
It must be so hard for 'foodies' to eat out, when they have seen so many pretty pictures of food.
I would eat here often if I didn't live in fear of needing a new wardrobe. -

Hey, what's happened here? This was a childhood favourite! When I moved back to the area half a decade ago, I started coming here again. It's been good until literally tonight. Following recent renovations, we grabbed some dinner here. The batter on the fish was thick as heck and raw where it touched the fish, the chips were CLEARLY old as heck and had been sitting out. Where are the old owners? Do they know what's going on? Damn. It's a shame. I hope they're doing alright.

STORE SOLD under new ownership- This used to be my spot for fish and chips now trying it after it was sold is a disapointment. firstly the haddock is not haddock its some sort of cheaper fish. I no haddock when I taste it and this stuff I was sold had a gooey texture and a nasty fishy taste to it; taste more like talapia then any haddock I ever had. The only reason why I gave it 2 stars is because the coleslaw hasn't changed and still taste the same.

Warning. We decided to try give Harbord Fish & Chips another try because it was a rainy night and it is close by. Unfortunately their food which is usually too greasy for our taste (they need to change their oil more often and cook at the right temperature) was tonight inedible. The regular owners weren't there and the fish was raw inside the cooked batter making the fish inedible. We ate the greasy fries and threw out the uncooked fish.

We had the dinner for two. Very generous portions. Ask for the chips well done. Highly recommend that. The batter on the haddock was incredibly light and crispy. Lovely folks behind the counter. The place itself oozes character. Recommended to pay a visit.
