Welcome Cockney Kings Fish & Chips to Main Street. This is the 4th location for this fish & chip franchise. Stopped by just after it opened midweek. There is seating for about 14 persons with tables and window counter seating. The interior is bright with high ceilings and plenty of natural light. I opted for the one piece cod & chips at $12.70. The order came wrapped for takeout which is fine as there was no way I could eat the amount of fries that came with the meal. The batter on the fish was light and not too greasy...and the fish tasted as one expects...it was good. The staff advised they do not season their fries and invite guests to season as they wish with salt, pepper, ketchup, and two vinegars on the tables. The staff advised that this location was geared towards take out hence no baskets for dining in and only wooden disposable knives and forks. The official Grand Opening of this store is set for the following week. I liked that they wrapped my left over fries in the paper...perfect for taking home and reheating in an air fryer another day. The only negative is that the washroom was currently not operational...which obviously needs to be addressed for any dine in establishment. It was a positive food experience. read more

My friend and I have been wanting to visit this place but it was always busy. Small venue on Main street, with limited seating, best for two to max four people. I ordered the cod and chips with coleslaw and homemade tartar sauce. The batter did not disappoint. It was light and super crispy. It came with a lot of fries! Service is fast and friendly. Side street parking is metered. read more

So thrilled to have a new joint in the neighbourhood! Cockney Kings is an institution and my dad's been going to this fish and chips spot since his childhood in the 60s! We were excited for their grand opening of their Main St location. They had great deals on - we each got 1 piece cod and chips for $12. The ordering went quickly and the team was working hard behind the scenes to fulfill the busy orders. The place was packed and there's limited seating so we took our order to go. This location is definitely meant for more of a takeout experience. I love that they wrap their fish and chips in classic chippy paper (is that a word) lol. When we got home it smelled amazing, they also gave us a free tartar sauce which was delish. Overall the fish was really tasty, my husband's fish piece was bigger and crispier than mine though so I was a wee bit jealous! My fish was smaller and slightly soggy on the edges. I know it was a super busy day so perhaps that's why the slight inconsistencies. The chips were unseasoned which I know is their deal they're just not my fave type of chips. However they make up for it in all their awesome seasonings and toppers like malt vinegar, white vinegar, tartar and ketchup and mustard. Lots to choose from for free to dress your fries the way you like them. I love the decor of the restaurant and the giant fish tail painted on the bricks. Really cute frame wall too with old photographs. If you're looking for a great fish and chips joint, you have found one in Cockney Kings! We will be back again to try out more menu items as they have a good variety of food! read more

3.5 stars. Came here for a Sunday lunch during their grand opening and bought a couple single cod and chips specials and a large seafood chowder. There is limited table seating and a line up outside the door waiting to get seated. So we took our order to go. The staff was friendly and worked hard to keep up with the incoming orders. The fish was moderately battered and was just barely crispy, but not soggy. The cod was moist and flakey. It tasted quite fresh. The fries were a little thick and meaty. Good potato flavour,but not particularly crispy or soggy. The fish and chips was wrapped in paper, but the grease did seap through within 10 minutes. So be careful not to eat this on your lap! The order comes with tartar sauce, but sadly, none was included in our take out. The seafood chowder was a very thick and chunky, chicken broth with adequate amounts of halibut, clams, and celery and potato. The flavour was otherwise quite neutral. Despite the less than stellar first visit to this business, and the fact they use beef tallow to fry, I'd be willing to give it another visit, and try some of their other offerings. Next time, onion rings? read more
