What can I say bad about Pete's? Nothing. You can't go wrong with the super seafood combo. The shrimp is out of this world. Don't ply yourself, get extra sauce and use it with your fries too! read more

I've eaten a Pete's off and on over the years and always thought they had pretty good food. If you're looking for traditional "fish and chips", they way they serve it back East, you might be disappointed; however, if you're open to trying something new, you might be pleasantly surprised. The real action at Pete's is in the fish and shrimp. I'm not a big fan of their fries because I like more McDonald's like crispy fry. The key to their success has got to be the sauce, which I think is the best in the business. One last thing, if you go to Pete's understand that Pete likes cash and doesn't take credit cards. Yes, it's a pain, but the non-greasy food is going to be worth the hassle. read more

Like another reviewer here, I was very excited to try this place out. I travel to Phoenix several times a year and I always saw the place on my way to the rental car return. There are always lots of cars going through and while I waited for my order I noticed tons of cars rolling through. These are usually good signs for an eating establishment. Imagine my disappointment when I realized that folks in Phoenix don't know what fish and chips are. I was expecting real fish and chips, not some odd square facsimile of fish. Fish filets are NOT square. If i had wanted this I could have just gone to Long J. Silvers or Captian D's. I'm not saying I'm a fish and chips aficionado but I've eaten fish and chips all over the country and this is NOT fish and chips. Go have some fish and chips in New England (anywhere in NE) and you'll find out what fish and chips should be. I'll admit that the sauce is good and if I had some real fish and chips to dip it in, I'd enjoy it even more. I can only chalk this up to a regional thing but I'll definitely give this place a pass the next time I'm in Phoenix. read more

The sauce makes this review 3 stars. It was the only good thing about this place. Fish was okay, not much flavor and it was a fried fish square. Shrimp was not good, they take a small piece of shrimp slice it down the middle and batter it long ways 10 times. So you end up with batter and a little shrimp. Good price though. Everything is cheap. read more

Friendly staff and consistency makes this Pete's Location a score for me. Since 1947 Pete's has been a staple within the valley. I've only been frequenting this location for the past year but they've never done me wrong. Every time I taste that red sauce it brings me back years to when I used to enjoy the same meals as a kid.

I have lived in Arizona for 26 years, a couple of weeks ago was the first time I had ever gone to Pete's, I don't know what took me so long to try it. The food was great, the prices are great, the entire experience was awesome, and I will definitely go back. It was a nice day to sit outside with friends and coworkers for lunch. We were just about done, when a car came screaming into the parking lot. Obviously everyone turned to look. We all heard the female driver of the car scream, "Get out!" The door opened and Hank fell out of the car. The girl driving took off and Hank gave chase for about 10 feet, before he collapsed, completely exhausted. Hank slammed his fist on the ground, "It was a complement, I swear it was a complement!" He cried. My friends all got up to leave, but I decided to slip around the side of the building and peep at Hank. It appeared as if he had and accident in his pants. He stumbled up to the window to order. Before the guy behind the window could even ask Hank what he would like, Hank yelled "A man needs fish!" The clerk tried to clarify what Hank wanted, but Hank wasn't listening. "Fish!" He screamed "Man need fish! Give fish!" He was like a caveman. For Hank, they were not moving fast enough. He tried to crawl in through the window, screaming the entire time. Lucky the staff was quick thinking and one of them hit him in the head with a frying pan. Hank fell back out of the window and laid on the ground. "Fish." He mumbled. A little kid that was eating with his family walked over to Hank and the kid stood over Hank. "Are you fish?" Hank asked. The kid dumped what was left of his soda right on Hank's face, then shoved a napkin in Hank's mouth. Hank yelled "FISH!" As he ate the used napkin. everyone was laughing, even the kids parents. People started throwing fries at Hank, until finally the cops got there and removed him. I recommend Pete's, I do not recommend Hank. read more

Used to come here as a kid when they served fresh chucks of cod with a flaky crust wrapped in newspaper. Yum! Nothing resembling that now. I understand the absence of newspaper, but now it is a thin square of processed mystery crap with lots of awful breading. I tried a bite and threw the rest away. Yuck! read more

Heard a lot about this place so my husband and I tried it yesterday what a big let down I did not know I was paying for frozen Van De Camp fish I guess people that have not had real fish and chips think this is the best won't be going there again read more

Think school lunch fish sticks. Shrimp was unrecognizable in the clumpy batter. The fish was minced cod or haddock and looked like something out of the freezer section at your local grocer. Tatar sauce (extra 30 cents for a 2 Oz serving) was tasty, but nothing could save the meals we ordered from being disappointing. I don't know why so many people seem to eat there regularly unless they miss school cafeteria fish sticks. Definitely a place to skip. read more

I was really excited when I saw this place one morning while I was on my way to a near by appointment. I Love fish and chips and the fact that this place specializes in this must mean its good right? Like any good little Yelper I checked out the reviews. Only 3, but a couple were really favorable. When I stopped by on my way out the parking lot was packed. Another good sign right? I walked up to the window to check out the menu posted above where you place your order. I was pleasantly surprised that the prices weren't that bad. I ordered the fish (1) piece, & shrimp (4) combo which came with fries and a drink. Plus for only 95 cents more I ordered something ala carte called a crabby. My total was about $8. I waited only about 5 minutes for the not so friendly lady at the window to call my number then took my bag of goodies to sit down and eat at one of the outside cement tables. I wish I could say it was good or bad but it wasn't. It really had no flavor at all. Not the fish, not the shrimp, not the fries and not the crabby which turns out to be a stick of imitation crab fried in the same breading as the fish and shrimp. One thing I can say is that it is very crispy and not greasy, although maybe that would have added a little more flavor. They don't serve tarter sauce either but instead the food comes with a spicy thinner than cocktail sauce sauce but it was a little too spicy for me to really enjoy. On a plus note they do offer real brewed iced tea. read more

I like pete's fish and chip. I really do. I go to other locations and enjoy it. I come to this one because it's close to my work and I usually like to be quick so drive thru. This time around I decided to eat in and that was a terrible idea. The person taking my order was just awful. I get trying to sale me more but you gotta be at least engaging. His idea of selling me a brownie and me politely declining is to insult me by asking me if I'm on a diet and smirk right after. I love the food but forget coming to this location is my recommendation. I won't be eating here again. read more

Always a great place to stop if not too busy. Food today was awesome. Not greasy at all. scallops were good size too. Still one of my favorite places for lunch!!! read more

Food is usually great but I drove 30 minutes out of my way for them to be closed 30 min early and closed on me waiting in the drive through and proceeded to close the windows while we watched, this location lost my business read more

I enjoyed my visit. I stopped by and placed about 8 orders to go . I waited a reasonable time . I was given a shirt for orders over $60,if I am not mistaken .I was taken by surprise but thought that it was pretty cool. Not sure if shirt gets you anything .Over all I liked my service and food. read more

I love Pete's Fish and chips!!!! The fish and the shrimp always taste great! Crunchy and great tasting!

Just had lunch there today, first time. Good service. Sat outdoors with misters, felt great. I ordered the 2 piece fish with the 7 shrimps. While the fish was OK, it did not come with tartar sauce. The shrimps were over breaded and dry. I will pass and try someplace else for fish and chips. Sorry read more

Best place ever! I moved away about 15 years ago but every time I come to Phoenix I make sure I eat at Petes. This place should be a national franchise. Thanks petes ! read more

petes is always a staple I especially like this one but have been to the one in tolleson. I love the sauce they use and have tried to create my own at home but it just wasn't the same I wish I could just buy a huge tub of the sauce! I love the shrimp sticks also, and the burgers are actually really good as well highly recommend! read more

Always consistent. This is by far the best Pete's location. Tried the others not as good.

This place should not be open. The fish looks like something they got at the grocery store at the frozen aisle. Fish square patties that llok like Mcdonalds but does not taste as good. The Shrimp looks the same way. The only thing I liked about this place was the sauce and onion rings which I goota say was real good. They shouldn't call themselves "Fish and Chips" If I go back to this place it will obnly be for the Onion Rings and sauce. read more

Pete's is seriously addicting! The fish is crunchy and hot, but the fry's are a little lackluster. You can tell they fry the fish to order because everytime it takes about 10-15 minutes to get your food even in the drive thru. Hate that they don't take credit cards though! read more

I've grown up eating at Pete's Fish and Chips with family and friends, so it holds a special place in my memory and heart. I live in Mesa Az so typically if I do decide to eat there it's at the Mesa Dr location. Every time I go there the cashier taking my order is almost always disrespectful and rude. I don't ever get chicken tenders but my friends who do always complain about how if we happen to be there on a Friday they Do Not sell them. (Is it really that hard to deep fry some chicken tenders.) All in all that Pete's location is a disappointment... The location on Buckeye Rd in Phoenix Az is not. I happened to be in the area when I stopped by to have lunch and was expecting the same treatment that I receive from the other Pete's. I was shocked from the results... It seemed like everyone there was upbeat and happy. The cashier was so kind it was almost shocking. One of my best experiences at a FAST FOOD restaurant not just a fish and chips spot, EVER! I encourage anyone around the Sky Harbor Airport area who wants some excellent fish and chips and an excellent friendly atmosphere to swing by. Next time I'm in the mood I am actually gonna make the mission over to this location rather than go down the street to the sub par Pete's on Mesa Dr. Pete's on Buckeye Rd turned a bad day I was having into a great one and for that I thank them... Oh yea... They also serve chicken tenders on Friday. I salute you Pete's, peace. read more
