I ordered twice and both time the potatoes was days old, obviously not fresh. The batter taste like what to expect from Chinese takeout not a fish place and the Skip the Dishes left the food in the lobby of my high rise apartment building near the buzzer. Never again! No ketchup or coleslaw and not enough tartar sauce.

80 on fish and you give 3 packs of tartar lol.
The batter taste like chicken ball batter, honestly.
Your fries are old too.

We are thrilled to have finally found the best neighbourhood Fish & Chips shop. The owners are so kind, the quality of the fish + the batter is perfect and the price and size of each are great! We will be back, weekly!

Mmm… mmm…good! So happy I found this place. Popped in the get take out. This is a real classic fish and “chip” shop. I was amazed at the fresh hand cut British style chips. The fish was battered and cooked perfectly. Kind and friendly service. Reasonable prices and family pack options. Definitely would recommend.

Captain John's
Review July 2024.

Captain John's rocks! Up until I sourced this authentic English-style chippy, I stated Beaverton Restaurant Inc. was the best in Ontario. John's is simply the best in Toronto. Delightfully fluffy & crisp, non-greasy batter wrapped around two generous portions of cod, coupled with thick, perfectly sized, proper-tasty fried chips. Both brother Jones & I agreed that this really was the best chippy in town. Having been born & raised in England, I much prefer to eat my fish & chips at the chippy or literally from the bag on my way home - fresh from the fryer, not delivered. The owner actually set the perfectly cleaned table for us & provided tartar sauce & all the accompaniments - true service with a smile. We chatted with the many regulars that were visiting to pick up their pre-orders, most had been eating there for years. Perfect menu, fast service & great value - sooo happy to have found a local, decent chippy in my old hood.

Tasty, fresh crispy deep fried fish. Liked halibut, cod, haddock in that order. Accompanied by good thick fries. Could be helped by having a home made tartar instead of a sachet.

"Mom and pop" run fish and chips joint. You can see they work hard and have a passion for what they do. Generously sized halibut and their batter is crispy and light. Love their freshly cut fries and homemade coleslaw.

Really good fish and chips, and better deals than the competitors.

I only wish the fish and chips came with a small coleslaw.

Edit: got it again, still 5 stars excellent quality

It's a cozy and welcoming spot to eat, I highly recommend! The cod was cooked to perfection, the fries were amazing and generously portioned. Staff are very friendly and helpful!
