Reminds me of home and the local chippies. A little over priced but still worth it just to experience the quality of the food. Im from Blackpool in Lancashire and in my opinion (from a guy that basically lived in the local chippy to avoid cooking while i was single) I havn't found another chippy in Canada (yet) that even comes close to these. Awesome fish every time i come over and visit from Medicine Hat

Great service and an authentic British fish and chips experience. A little on the pricey side but totally worth it!

For that "just around the corner" fish and chips place, it's perfect! They have a quaint menu but they execute on it which is why we go back.

Fantastic food - but yeah, the prices are high :)

To those other reviewers who found the taste of the food not to their liking, let me share this anecdote.

My mother is from Stoke On Trent in England - not far from Manchester, where I understand the owners of this place are from. While she never regretted emigrating to Canada, she often lamented that she just couldn't get a "decent" fish and chips in Calgary.

The thing about fish and chips (at least in England) is it's kind of a regional dish. As you travel around the island, you'll find the fish and chips tastes different in different regions. So what you're getting here is "Manchester" fish and chips - and I'm here to tell you that what the British Chippy serves is *EXACTLY* what you'd get in Manchester. Alas, my mother went to her grave never having experienced this place - I know she'd have smiled and said "ahh..... AT LAST!"

To her (and my) taste, the fish and chips served here in Canada just tastes different. I won't say better, I won't say worse, just DIFFERENT. And if you're used to one style, you're likely going to find a different style not to your liking.

If you're not ready to try a high-quality DIFFERENT fish and chips than what you're used to, then by all means, stay away. But if you're willing to be adventurous (and/or if you're from anywhere near the Midlands of the UK!), by all means make a beeline for this place.

PS - LOVE the mushy peas and curry sauce (very authentic!) - but - while I understand why the fish and chips are pricy, these items should be much cheaper than priced here. Alas.

Really liked it! My kids loved the sausage and the cod was amazing. Definitely reminded me of my visits to England.

Decided to go here a week after being in the UK. The fish and chips, and the battered sausage, were just as good!

Will definitely go back!

It's a good place in a neighborhood setting. The place is small and closes early but I like the food. Fish menu can change depending on availability.

I came with my wife and two kids on a Friday evening. We were greeted at the door and were seated in a booth right away. The staff was friendly and courteous.

I had the cod and chips with a side of curry sauce, my wife and son shared the steak pie and chips, and my daughter had the fish bites and chips. We were all happy with the quality of our food, and the speed in which it arrived. It definitely satiated my craving for fish and chips.

We were, however, disappointed with the prices. For our meal we paid $50 (plus tip). For the price of an order of fish and chips ($16.25), the meal really should have come with two pieces of fish instead of just one. Cans of pop were $2.50 each, which felt overpriced too.

We drove across the city to try this place, and probably won't bother driving back because it just felt too expensive for what came on the plate.

Best fish and chips in the city. Hands down the best. Cannot stress enough. Everything's handmade to order and it's all delicious. I always get the fish and chips obviously, my wife always gets the steak pie and she loves it.
