Big Ben's Fish and Chips

My husband and I tried to go to dinner here last Friday. I’m a curvy girl and the tables that are two seaters to the right when you enter the restaurant are too close to the table for me to sit comfortably. We chose to sit down on the left at a four seater but before I could sit down a woman yelled over to say sit at a two seater and I said I don’t fit there and the looks I got from her were insensitive to say the least. I decided that I’m not staying here for dinner and I’m not coming back either without this woman having the sensitivity training as she clearly needs it.

I love this restaurant. I've been coming here for several years, and it is one of the best fish and chip restaurants in the Kawarthas!! The staff are friendly, and the owners are terrific.

Our favourite Fish and chips restaurant in Ontario! However we were disappointed today with the fries don’t know if it’s the potatoes as we are having problems finding good tasting ones.
The waitress didn’t ask why we left most of our fries.
Otherwise still our favourite just change the fries back if possible.

Had the 1/2 chips - 1/2 slaw option with cod, shrimp and scallops. Cod and shrimp were excellent, scallops a bit on the small side but all were VERY good. My wife had the halibut and it was excellent. Service was friendly, warm, attentive and professional. Restaurant is a little sterile, the fluorescent lighting makes you feel like you're in a laboratory but the place is bright and spotless. Kitchen and staff were very visible and the cleanliness was a major plus. We thought it was very good value for where restaurant prices are nowadays. Will definitely return.

Every time I go to try to go to this restaurant it's closed.. 🙄

Asked for a 1pc and a 2pc dinner..
2 pc is only available with half order of fries. If you want full order of fries.. you must order another 1 pc dinner for an additional 18.99.
What??? So even after I accepted the half order of fries.. my bill for a 1pc and a 2pc with half fries was 59.00.
I cannot recommend this restaurant nor will I return

Fabulous little fish & chip place. Cute decor, nice seating, bright and very friendly service! Parking on the side is a fantastic idea as well when the lot shares with 2 other businesses.

Fish is always excellent, only 1 star less for less than the usually excellent chips.
