I understand change but come on not the fries!!!! They were so so good now they are dry, hard, and not even the sauce will save them..... please bring back the juicy Dipable fries!!!! read more

I don't know what it is about this place but it's great!! If i come to Arcadia I'm stopping here. I like the patio when the weather permits. Fish is just ok. Shrimp are delicious! Fried zucchini are awesome! Onion rings are on point. It might be weird but i come here for the burger. I love it. Double monster burger with cheese!!! Cash only so come prepared. read more

I would never go here again in 1 million years. After wanting to go to this place for five years, i discovered upon getting home they serve premade frozen fish patties stamped in rectangles. I think it comes with a cocktail sauce that is essentially catsup with maybe a pepper or two per gallon ... DONT waste your money. Go a few blocks away to Sprouts, buy some cod, take it home and make your own. If you don't know how, contact me and I would gladly walk you through it so as to never make someone else go through what I did. I also ordered a coleslaw, and upon opening when I got home, the container was half full and there was so seasoning or acid in it whatsoever rendering it flavorless. This is so disappointing because it took me a half an hour just to get food because they only except cash and I had to go to an ATM after waiting in line once. Please, no one waste your money on this horrible excuse for fish and chips. read more

Petes was good in the past but today,,, NOT GOOD AT ALL. I actually feel sick after eating a little of the items I ordered. And then I had to stop and almost throw up. The onion rings tasted like oil, and they were so gross, Tried giving some to Oscar my fish loving Cat and he sniffed And walked away. I paid cash and want refund. Food is in bag in fridge. Will I succeed in getting $25 back in theses hard times? Please Respond or I will stop in read more

It finally happened. Pete's Fish and Chips has impressed me. And it happened at the 44th Street location which I had previously reviewed. A small group of co-workers and I decided to have lunch together last week and we chose Pete's. It may be winter, but it is Arizona, so their patio seating was still comfortable. Unlike the previous meals here, everything in my entree was flavorful, hot and cooked perfectly. This includes the fish, shrimp, fries and onion rings. The portion was generous and the sauces were perfect! Even though I dinged this chain in my first review with three stars, they definitely earned an extra star. Well done Pete's! read more

Winner for the 2021 worst of the worst award goes to Pete's Fish and isht! If anyone on Yelp has given this place a good review you should Unfollow them and never believe any of the reviews. Their taste buds have been completely melted away they can no longer be trusted with anything to do with food. This place is terrible. To the owners, sale me this place so I can make it real fish and chips. read more

Super cheap, super quick, super delicious. I tried the chicken tenders, fish, and shrimp. Zero complaints! Greasy and delish.

I managed to eat 1 of these, a few fries, and survived. Flavor is poor at best. Seriously, frozen, large fishsticks? And no vinegar but only lemon juice packs, if you don't dare to try Pete's Sauce? This is the only time I've had processed fish and chips, or this bad. Don't go here, especially for fish and chips. Look harder. read more

Pete's Fish And Chips - Most of my dinner left for the trash can - Fish & Chips Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

How do people like this food. On another note, I ordered a few things and got home and found I had a sauce and some napkins in the bag.... huh??? Had to go back to get the actual food. read more

If I could give '0' stars, I would. Having spent 25 years in Britain, I've a reasonable idea of what 'fish and chips' is--and I can tell you this is the worst I've ever eaten! I don't expect perfect mastery, but to get a prefab, precut, preformed, very thin small block of dry --whatever that fish is, coated in flat breading (!) instead of fresh, flaky batter...instead of proper chips, you get frozen-tasting, skinny McDonalds'-type fries...truly horrible!! Please, Pete or whatever family member is continuing this travesty in a run-down, tiny 'out of mayo, tomato,lettuce'--signed dirty dump, (at least the one on Indian School Rd.) go to England and juuuust get a taste... please. Truly awful. read more

Don't want to start a war with any of the clearly DEDICATED locals who were waiting in line, but I was NOT impressed with Pete's fish, his shrimp, or his chips. Way too much breading on all of the seafood ... absolutely CANNOT taste whatever is underneath it. Fries were boring ... None of it was "bad" (hot and crispy, at least), but I can only presume their fans have not eaten much (even slightly) fresh seafood. read more

Pete's Fish And Chips - a wooden outhouse with a door - Fish & Chips Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I don't know who the little chick is that works at this location but her attitude is trash. It's not my fault you work for minimum wage....so don't take that shit out on customers. Definitely don't have an attitude with me if YOU'RE the one who messed up on the order. They got my drink wrong and when I addressed it, she took the drink back and gave me another one and didn't say a word. No "sorry about that" a simple "ok" would've even been ok in this situation but nah. Fix your attitude. read more

One of my former co-workers was raving about this place and suggested it to me. He was surprised that I had never been so he brought some into work one day. I got the shrimp, fries, and fish. It took me two bites to even reach the shrimp from all of the breading. It had no flavor and the fries were bland as well. As I was eating my stomach was turning. I was hungry so I ate at least half of it. The trash can enjoyed the rest. Petes is really a great place to go to...if you need to clear your bowels. read more

I love this place and all Pete's for that matter. I stick with the fish. The shrimp is sort of an acquired taste I guess. Two tips. Pete's is cash only. They have an atm on site. This Pete's is closed on Sunday. The website location menu pdf says they are open Sunday however it's not so. read more

This place reminds me of the drive up burger places of my home town. I've been coming to this location for years and the service is always stellar and the food is solid. I love that you can get a decent sized burger for under five bucks and your fries are solid--nothing special but just solid. My husband has fallen in love with your messy chicken and messy fish sandwiches and I love that you guys give out dog treats. I know that it has to be stressful with Covid and such but you guys continue to give great customer service and serve up good food to go along with it. Thank you for being awesome! read more

Venerable Phoenix fish and chips stand. Either you love it or hate it, and we love it. The fish is always crisp and tasty, and the sauce is legendary. read more

Such a cute little place, Maria is super sweet and the whole staff was helpful! My daughter fell and busted her lip and they gave her a slushy to make her feel better :) Food was awesome!! Not greasy at all and great portions. Loved the sauce that the food comes with. Will definitely be coming back!! There is also a drive- thru and both dine in and drive-thru are cash only! Just a heads up :) read more

Pete's Fish And Chips - Fish & Chips Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Good food, friendly service, reasonable prices, nostalgic location, the only inconvenience is cash only

Grew up eating Pete's Fish and Chips and I don't think much has changed. Use to be a treat to go as a kid and get the "Monster Burger" and at the time was the biggest burger you could get. Now there are a few more locations but they still look the same. I don't order the monster burger very often but do get the shrimp and chips and or fish. Still have the bench seats and open air seating or drive thru. Good for a quick bite and will be back but mainly going in the drive thru. Remember cash only read more

The food used to be so delicious, but they keep making changes that have caused me to stop eating there. The last straw was they changed their fries from a thicker softer fry to thin gross dry fries. They changed their chicken breast to a hard dry breading. Their fish is now very dry as well. I really hope they bring back the old fries and correct the rest of the issues. I've been going there my whole life, and so has my family. My son is on the autism spectrum and would only eat the fries. He was so disappointed at the change. He refused to eat the new ones, so did the rest of the family. Inedible. read more

Not what I was expecting from Pete's Fish and Chips. Got 2 fish cakes and fries. Was hoping for actual pieces of fish but got this instead. Not even any tarter sauce to kill the taste of the fish, their sauce is a watery ketchup style seafood sauce with no kick. So disappointed and won't be going back. read more

Pete's Fish And Chips - This is what I got from Pete's Fish and Chips, not what I was expecting. Could have bought some fish sticks or patties at the grocery store. - Fish & Chips Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

First time eating at Pete's. I got the #8 with an extra piece of fish. Both the chickens and fish are good but I recommend the fish more.

Accidentally drove past Pete's Fish & Chips pulled over because I had a craving for Fish It was awesome, it was very well cooked , it was hot and fresh the Favor was everything Their French fries Secret sauce was Yummy. Thanks Anthony & Colton at the Drive Thru These Guys were super helpful & patient explaining the different types of fish they had. I will return! P.S. they only take Cash read more

First time coming in, and came in with pretty low expectations tbh. I was pleasantly surprised at the big ass fish stick cake and shrimp I got though! Was salty, and had decent flavor. Would eat here again. read more

This place is 100% certified ASS! Frozen square patty of minced fish of unknown origin. Cash only. Fries cooked in dirty oil. Extra charge for their extra shitty sauce. I would literally eat a filet o fish ANY day over this crap. I believe the only reason they have business is bc they've been around so long and kids that were force fed this shit are nostalgic for it. I would rather eat a skunks asshole. read more

Can I give this less than one? Grew up in Phoenix, had Pete's quite often. During the Pandemic, they were a Godsend. They were open and cranking out good food. Now, WTF!!! Three times THEY left out a portion of our order, coincidentally the most expensive item of the order. Three times I called and made them aware. They said they had a "book". Well, if you get put into the "book" you only have 1 week to get what THEY screwed up. Ultimately their customer service is nonexistent, their food is not the same. All in all, go somewhere else, ANYWHERE else. Pete's Fish and Chips is NOT worth visiting! read more

Amazing food!!!!! I'm addicted the chicken tenders are sooo good! I would eat there everyday if I could

This place is famous, so famous that when I am out of town I see their bumper stickers on cars in other states. However, Pete's seems to be famous like the Kardashians are, for no apparent reason. I am baffled. Fish and chips are great if they are done right, but these are swimming in grease. Don't get me wrong I am a fan of grease and fat and all good artery clogging things, but I immediately felt sick after eating at Pete's. So did my brother and his friend, and they will eat anything. This place is cash only, so be prepared to shell out real bills for your nausea. They have food other than fish and chips, but I'm not sure I would risk trying anything else if they can't even get the food that they are known for right. Pete's is a drive through which if you are going to go there I would recommend because their only other seating is outside. Though in the summer I suppose you could have yourself a good seafood sweat lodge if that's what you enjoy... Anyway, some people love this place and I don't know why, but good for them. Maybe someday I'll give Pete's another try and change my mind, but for now I'll stick to getting my fish and chips elsewhere. read more

This place is amazing!!! Food is always fresh. You will never want to eat fish and chips again without the Pete's sauce. I always buy extra because I use so much. Pricing is reasonable for a laid back date night or for family dinner. read more

It's lent went to this location for my shrimp and fish sandwich. Payed $13 for 7pc shrimp and onion rings and my fish sandwich and a drink. When I got home to split with my kids opened bag and I had my onion rings fish sandwich but no 7 pc shrimp. They gave me 2 fish pattie . I called I guess he was the manager he said sorry we might have been busy. I live in downtown traveled 40 mins in traffic . Not happy won't be back read more

They need to warn someone when ordering! I ordered shrimp & chips & lawd it was not what was expected... They were like shrimp sticks?? And the "special sauce" is cocktail sauce. read more

Pete's Fish And Chips - Shrimp & Chips ??? I'm just as confused as you - Fish & Chips Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Amazing food! The fried shrimp with the complimentary spicy sauce is mind boggling good

The worst. Lived here 30 years and finally tried today. Not even fish, oversized fish sticks.French fries not home made either. Cooked and old, not even hot. Have to pay extra for tartar sauce. Never going again. read more

I'm not addicted to Pete's Fish & Chips. There, I said it. The drive back to Phoenix from Scottsdale late at night is a lonely and empty one, especially when you're starving, and cannot bring yourself to go to any place ending in "erto's." I pulled into the mini-mall on Indian School & 44th to see if Pita Jungle, for whatever crack-smoking reason, would still be open. Of course not. And then I saw the little Pete's stand across the street. Pete's Fish & Chips. A Phoenix legend. Bumper stickers everywhere. And I had yet to partake (why this is, I had no idea). I saw the neon "OPEN" sign brightly lit. Score. So I walked across the street, and by the time I got the window, I was greeted by A) the stench of urine which was reminiscent of many sidewalks back in San Francisco and B) a sign saying the dining area was closed. Drive-thru only. Which is fine. Many places become drive-thru only at night. So I walked across the street, got into my car, and drove back in. A car in front of mine ordered and then it was my turn. I thought I'd get the classic combo - a 3 piece plate of fish and chips. The fried mushrooms also looked appetizing, but a sign made on a desk jet printer stated they don't serve mushrooms on Fridays. Huh? Can someone explain this rule to me? Something written in some scripture somewhere that I don't know about? Anyway, I ordered my fish & chips and I anxiously awaited my meal. And waited. And waited. And waited. 20 MINUTES! I waited 20 minutes in a drive-thru, with a nonexistent line in front of me. Eventually I got my food and the lady at the window was friendly, but no, "sorry, son, you just waited forever for your deep-fried dinner." Never mind. I was starving. I drove home as fast as I could, so I could eat my dinner before it got cold. I took my plate out of the bag, and took the foil off the top. Huh? I don't know why, but I was expecting three real fillets of fish. What was in front of me looked like the love children of Van De Kamp's fish sticks and McDonald's hash browns. "This is the legendary Pete's Fish & Chips?!" I thought. But never mind....I was starving. To give them credit, the breadcrumbs on the flattened fish sticks were well seasoned, the fish was very light and cooked just right, and the fries were pretty decent, but was this worth a 20 minute wait at a drive-thru (or conversely, sitting at the tables out front where it smells a little not that great)? I'm not so sure. So I'm not going to put an "I'm Addicted To Pete's Fish & Chips!" bumper sticker on my car just yet. Maybe tonight was a one-off and they're usually incredible and people get their meals within one song on the radio instead of 5 (including commercial breaks). We'll see. 3 stars. read more

Pete's Fish And Chips - Fish & Chips Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This food is really gross. It's literally frozen food deep fried. The flavor of the fish in the seafood platter was disgusting. The deep fried burrito was previously frozen and nothing but mush in the middle. The fries are soggy and overcooked. We literally threw our entire meals away. What a waste of money! read more

Friendly and fast service the food is good it was a bit greasy but that is what they are so no complaints there. The lady at the drive thru asked if we needed anything else had a smile when we pulled up which is a plus. The food was packaged well and there were no errors another plus. read more

Pete's has been in my life since I was a little girl. I can remember going to the original location on Van Buren with my grandparents. All of the locations look less than to be desired from the outside, but there's treasures to be found within the menu. My staple used to be the 5 or 7 piece shrimp and chips. Gotta get extra sauce. While I still love the shrimp and chips, I've discovered a new front runner, thanks to my hubby J. He's lived here since he was 5 years old and had never been to a Pete's. 2 weeks ago this past Sunday, I had a preggo craving for some fried tasty goodness. I directed J to the online Pete's menu and he figured he'd give Pete's a try. My order - 7 piece shrimp and chips with extra 14oz Pete's Sauce. $6.10 J's order - Triple Everything Monsterburger. Large chips. $7.00 I looked at J and said...uhh...are you sure you want a burger? He said yep. I dont know, something about ordering a burger from Pete's always kinda weirded me out. But I figured...it's his gut. So be it. I go and order through the drive-through. A few minutes later, I get our order and drive back home. OMG! This burger was freaking HUGE and looked AWESOME!! J took his first few bites and I inquired as to how it tasted. He raved about this burger. It was so big though that he couldn't finish all of it. That's saying a lot cause J can eat! Flash forward to this past Monday. I was craving a good burger on the cheap. J suggested Pete's. I about fell on the floor! This burger must have been something else! Well, let me tell you ~ The hell with the seafood! Order a burger, people!!! After ordering my own Monster Everything Burger, I know where my go to burger joint is going to be from now on!! read more

I loved this place as a kid, they have really changed. The flavor is still the same, but the shrimp are soft and almost dough like. They are supposed to be crunchy, maybe fry them longer. Please fix this. I want to love this place again. The location in Mesa still makes them crunchy if you need a reference. read more

As usual they screwed up my order. Asked for 2 hotdogs plain. Got home and opened up my bag of food and got 2 hotdogs with everything. How hard is it to screw up a plain hotdog? Never again. Oh and my fiance's scallops are still frozen in the middle. read more

For me it was just a lot of meh. It's not bad, but it's also not good...just meh. Not a lot of flavor and overly breaded. The shrimp were my favorite thing, but I had to pick a lot of breading off. The sauce is good...it's like a spicy cocktail sauce. read more
