Fish & Chips Restaurants near Richmond Hill, ON

“I used to think fish and chips were defined by the greasiness on my tongue and the inedibility of their chips. I’ve tried the dish on many occasions, but never found one that tasted just right. I think this place comes close to very very good. It doesn’t have the greasy feel that plagued so many of my previous consumptions, the batter isn’t too thick nor too thin, and most of all, I genuinely wanted to eat the chips. Definitely coming back the next time I’m in the area.“

“Absolutely delicious from start to finish. The portions were fantastic, the food tasted fresh, and the batter was perfectly light. The service was great, and the quiet atmosphere, with plenty of loyal regulars, made it feel special. The Scottish influence really sets it apart from other fish & chips restaurants in Toronto. We’re thrilled to have found our new go-to spot. Highly recommend!“

“All in all good food for good prices. Definitely going back.“

“Hidden gem for some AMAZING fish and chips run by a mom and pop duo at Peanut Plaza for ages. It’s our go to place when we are craving some really good old fashioned fish and chips :)

We got the daily special fish and chips combo. It’s $11 with tax (see picture). A steal to find and definitely worth it since it will put you into a good food coma afterwards.

The daily special fish and chips combo comes with a good sized haddock fish, lots of crispy chips, choice of coleslaw or gravy, and a pop. The haddock is awesome. It’s nicely battered to make it crispy on the outside while maintaining that nice flaky fish goodness on the inside. Also, the gravy is a must. It goes so good with the crispy chips.

Heads up, limited seating. It’s more of a take out fish and chips shop.“

“We found this restaurant by chance today, and it turned out to be such a great find.
The atmosphere was perfect for enjoying a meal with family, the server was incredibly friendly, and the portions were generous.
On top of that, the food was absolutely delicious.
We were completely satisfied and will definitely be coming back!“

“Food was very good, but what truly made the experience special was the “”””waitresses””””Their behavior was exceptionally respectful, warm, and professional. They treated guests with genuine kindness, beautiful manners, and constant attention, creating such a pleasant and welcoming atmosphere that you naturally want to return just to experience that level of service again. The quality of their hospitality easily matched and even surpassed the quality of the food.“

“The BEST fish and chips hands down. I have also tried other food on their menu and have been very pleased. Highly recommend. A lovely couple who have been part of the Aurora community for a number of years now.
Well done Peter and Phonda. Keep it up.“

“Great spot if you’re craving a classic fish and chips experience.

The fish was cooked perfectly, and the batter was light and crispy. I had the cod, while my friends ordered the haddock and halibut. We tried each other’s dishes, and all of them were excellent. Cooked just the way I like. To top things off, the coleslaw was amazing: light, refreshing, and with the perfect crunch. Its sweet and tangy flavor balanced the richness of the dish beautifully. Overall, it really hit the spot!

You could tell the chips were made fresh in house, too. They provided ample tartar sauce along with the classic salt-and-vinegar accompaniments for the chips. The portion sizes were very generous. I even had enough to take some home and enjoy later.

The space is clean and bright, and the service is exceptionally friendly and accommodating.

Highly recommend checking this place out if you need your fish and chips fix!“

“You guys have to check this place out. The service was great and super quick. Charlene was awesome. Food is always delicious especially their halibut and everytime I’ve gone it’s always consistent. Their tartar sauce is literally the best and they have amazing specials.“

“We head to the Carbon Bar at least once a month to watch 'the game' or just a pub food night out. The food is consistently good quality and always served hot. The servers are attentive and focused on their customers! Its a great local bar and we're rarely disappointed when we show up!“

“I don't think it's fair to give this place low ratings for not meeting the superb standard that was set by the previous owner. This place is not a franchise.

I went for dinner on late Sunday night. The restaurant looks old and not very well lit. As other reviewers have mentioned, the restaurant is run by only one staff. He tried to make my dining experience comfortable: offering counters with a wider seatings and turned on additional lights while I read the menu.

I ordered the halibut fish and chips, and the fried fish checks all the boxes. It is not dry, flaky, not over-battered, and have fair portion size. Fries can get a bit dry after a few minutes, but I was allowed to use as much condiments as I desired with the large squeeze bottle. The tartar sauce is standard to
the majority's taste bud - not overly sour or sweet.

Sure this place may no longer be the "hidden gem" or "the local's favourite", but it still has its own charm and imperfection like any locally own restaurant. It offers budget option (the lunch size halibut) which are all under $20. It runs from 7am to 9pm everyday. It is halal friendly. The dining area is rustic but good for those who wants to have a quick yet decent meal without sitting among the crowd (something that seems harder to avoid in Markham as times goes on).

I will eat here again whenever I get a craving for fish and chips.“

“Friendly staff and everything was clean. The food was also tasty. Thank you.“
