Sweet sufferin’, what a scoff! Luh, if ya wants a proper feed, this place got ‘er made! The fish was fresh as the breeze off the harbour — golden brown, crispy on the outside, soft and flaky on the inside. Some goods I tell ya. Soon as I took a bite, I said to meself, “Lord liftin’, that’s some good grub!” The chips were some wicked too — homemade, brown ‘round the edges, soft in the middle, just like Mudder used to make. They were some deadly. I swears they homemade, frigin cooked just right – bit of crunch with the soft middle, just how ya likes ‘em.

An’ lemme tell ya, that little cup o’ slaw. Wicked good! An' that was the cherry on top, b’y. Nice bit o’ tang to go with the grease, ya knows. Whole feed was piping hot, like it just come outta the fryer. None o’ that cold, limp stuff you gets other places.

If you’re lookin’ for a real Newfoundland-style feed, you can’t go wrong here, me son. I’d go back in a heartbeat – best fish ‘n chips I’ve had since Nan’s kitchen! I’d drive across the bay for another one, no word of a lie. Fair best feed I had in ages!

We happened upon this shop in September on our way to catch the Ferry back to Nova Scotia and while the location seemed a bit odd, the fish was incredible! I make it a habit to order fish and chips at most restaurants I go to and this was by far the best I’ve ever had. It was possibly the best food I’ve ever eaten in my life. I am not sure what made it so spectacular but if you ever have the opportunity to eat there, definitely do it!

Food was generous, we had the fried cod with fries and poutine. The fries were crispy and golden not burnt at all. The fish was juicy with a crispy deep fried batter. The gravy was tasty not spicy. Service was very fast and staff very friendly. Highly recommend. Outside atmosphere was great as well. Love the colors and out door seating. Not a dine in Spot but dine out tables available.

Stayed in deer lake for a night and stopped here to pick up dinner to take back to our Airbnb.

Ladies behind the counter were fabulous. Service was outstanding and super friendly. We ordered the 3 piece fish and chips for 2 people. It was plenty. Gravy on the side was superb. Fish was crispy and flaky and delicious. Homemade fries were perfect.
This place was great!!

Best FISH and chips I've had in a very long time, highly recommend! The location is a take-out window with covered outdoor seating in an industrial park, but whatever, the fish more than makes up for it. If you are ever in or passing thru Deer Lake, dont' think about it, DO IT, and you're welcome. 🤑

I have been there twice for the fish and chips. The food is tasty, the portion size is great and the prices aren't bad either. They do not take debit card, but for most that is not a big deal.

The fish and chips are top notch and the lobster roll is worth driving from Ontario for.

I got off the highway looking for a quick bite and came across Off The Hook Fish & Chips — and I’m so glad I did. The fish and chips were some of the best I’ve had in a long time: crispy batter, tender fish, and perfectly cooked fries. I also tried the lobster roll, and it was amazing — fresh, flavorful, and generously filled. Didn’t expect to find such quality food by chance, but this place really delivered. Would definitely stop by again if I’m in the area!
