Having heard good things I rode up to the shop to give it a try. The snapper is nicely fried and still retains a tender bite. The fries are not soggy and meaty. The fried oyster was cold and watery which is a weird sensation for a fried oyster read more

This place got lots of hype for their Mon-Wed all you can eat special and that's what I got! Today it came with Alaskan pollock which is fairly soft. A HUGE plate that comes with two big pieces of pollock, chips, tartar sauce and a small side of Cole slaw. The fish is not bad. Good crunchy batter, not too heavy or thick, I would say on the light side. The pollock is fairly soft. The chips are just alright. Maybe below average, just frozen fries. It took a while to come out, they came back asked if I wanted more and I got an extra piece. That was fairly fast. The fried calamari we got for appetizer came fairly fast. I thought it was good. Very light batter. Nice and soft calamari. Now for the bad: - we saw mouse droppings. - my wife's lobster roll was "soaked in butter" and it really bothered her, she seems to really not like it - rest of my family said too much batter, didn't like the fish. I would say meh. Come if you really want all you can eat pollock. read more

CLAM CHOWDER - a bit of a disappointment especially if you love New England chowders. It was bland and watery. COD & CHIPS - good!! Portion is good and the batter is crispy and not too much batter. The fries were good too!! I definitely would come back for their fish and chips and maybe try their fish taco / burgers read more

Visited this spot on a week night and was pleasantly surprised! They have a $17.50 fish & chips all-you-can-eat deal from Monday to Wednesday until 8pm. The interior is minimally decorated and they weren't too busy, but had a steady stream of customers. The service was very friendly and attentive. They serve fried Alaskan pollock for the fish and we found the batter to be crispy and not overly battered, which was nice. The fries were pretty standard but tasted fresh. I really enjoyed the homemade coleslaw and tartar sauce. You are given 2 pieces of fish to start, and you can add 1 piece of fish at a time after that. Overall, it was an enjoyable experience! A fun option if you're looking for AYCE! read more

Came here with my friends for dinner and we were all super impressed! Their fish and chips are honestly some of the best I've had. The fish isn't oily at all. When we finished eating, the plate had zero grease. The fish itself is meaty, flaky, and tastes really fresh, and the batter is light without feeling heavy or thick. The fries are thick-cut, made from real potatoes, and perfectly crispy. We also tried their burgers and loved them. The brioche bun is soft and the fried cod inside is chef's kiss. Great food, great value, and overall such a satisfying meal. I'm definitely coming back and bringing my family next time! read more

Food has gone downhill Fish was soggy, oily and undercooked. Calamari were dry and tasteless. Would not go back quality and service is no longer there read more

A recent visit was terribly disappointing. Fish and chips used to be good here but based on this experience, no longer. Prices have skyrocketed (they have everywhere) but there's no value for money. I went with my granddaughter and we ordered one clam chowder and one halibut and chips "special" that was over $18. And they have the nerve to charge $3 for a can of pop with no glass or ice. Just a can of pop plopped down on the table. I'm an old granny and no fan of drinking pop from a can, especially during dinner. And for $3 I expect at least a glass, and maybe even some ice! Very weird service. Although there were clearly two of us, the server brought one set of cutlery and one napkin. So are things so bad that two people have to share cutlery? And one napkin? What? I actually had to go to the counter to ask for another set of cutlery and she seemed confused by the request. Also, horrible, loud elevator music! It was absolutely dreadful and seemed to be the same monotonous dopey tune on a loop. We had to ask that it be turned down and it was, very slightly. Who wants to listen to that crap when they're eating? Nobody even wants it in elevators, so what makes them think we want it when we're trying to relax and enjoy a meal? I thought the soup would come out before the F&C, and that's why I ordered it, so my granddaughter would get something to eat quickly. But it arrived when we were nearly finished the small pieces of fish (my gdaughter didn't even eat hers after tasting as she declared it "awful"). I could be very wrong and apologies if I am, but it seemed to me to be canned soup. If you've got chowder made and ready to go, why does it take so long to arrive at the table? Somebody had to open a can and hurl it into the microwave first? Yuck! It had a very "canned soup" flavour and texture and since gdaughter was put right off her food, I was the only one who ate it and left most of it in the bowl. I can open a can of chowder at home and it doesn't cost me $8 + tax. One order halibut and chips, one clam chowder, two cans of pop and it was $33+. No tip, I can tell you that, and I nearly always tip. There wasn't even a "thanks for coming in" or "see you again" or any friendliness from the server. We left feeling disappointed and ripped off. There was no redeeming feature of this experience at all. Cannot recommend, will never go back. Total waste of time and money! read more

A quaint spot on the drive that serves flaky, crispy battered fish and chips. My whole family got the two piece cod which comes with chips, creamy coleslaw and tartar sauce. The only this I didn't care for was the tartar because it had purple onions. What makes this place a gem was the lady serving us. She is super friendly and genuinely cares for her customers. Thank you read more

A great place to eat Fish & Chips in the lower mainland ! The Fish & Chips depending which one you get ranges between 1piece ($12+) to 3pieces (24+) . I like getting the 2 piece halibut with fries as it reminds me of how they made the dish back in England. The restaurant hasn't changed for years and I really like the ambience of the place. sometimes they do have a special of 3 piece Cod + fries/salad for only $10.99!! Definitely a must try if you're into eating British Food read more

Windjammer restaurant on Commercial Drive in Vancouver BC. Small restaurant serving fish and chips and burgers. We both had cod and chips. Yummy! Not too greasy. No outdoor seating. Paid street parking. read more

Price/quality (3/4): Good quality for the price. I had fish and chips and I was not disappointed by the food. However, I feel like the fish inside the batter could have been just a little juicier, though it was still quite tasty. Service (0/1): Service was friendly when we got any, but it was almost non-existent otherwise. The restaurant wasn't particularly busy, yet the service was extremely slow. Half the time, the server wasn't even in sight. At one point we had to grab the menus ourselves. Would I come here again: Probably not read more

Great place. We ordered both the Cod and Halibut and both were delicious, the fries and coleslaw were great too! We started off with the Calamari and it was great. The fish was was not greasy at all. The prices are very reasonable. Will definitely come back and recommend to family and friends. read more

Cheap fish & chips and beer on the Drive? Oh yes. Parking is available on the side streets. The inside is pretty dim, but does look classy for a more casual place. The waiter was very courteous and professional. Reminded me of a cruise ship for some reason. Fish & chips are decently priced, in the $6-13 range (1-3 pieces). The batter was nice but also not too thick, and the fish was pretty juicy. The fries were also nice and crisp. The tartar sauce could've been "lumpier", but it was decent overall. There was also a side of coleslaw. The drink special was $12 for Raven beer this Friday. Can't go wrong there. It was nice of the waiter to suggest that instead of our original plan of 3 pints. Next time I have a hankering for battered fish, this place makes the list. read more

Had a hankering for fish and chips and wanted to dine in vs. pick up at my other favourite fins and chips place while in Vancouver. Read a few reviews that were mostly favourable for this place on Commercial Drive and when I got there it was shortly after noon and too my surprise it was still closed. The person inside noticed me outside and gestured for me to wait and several minutes later she opened the front door to let me in. She explained with Covid their operating hrs were approximate, so I would call in advance to ensure they are open if you decide to try them out I basically had the place to my own the whole time I was there so no issues with social distancing while dining, I order the two piece cod and it came with a generous portion of fries, coleslaw and tartar sauce. The cod was lightly battered and the cod tasted fresh as well as the coleslaw. The price was decent for the potions that were served, service was attentive and I will come back. Parking I suspect could be hard to find on the weekends as it is a busy street and area, there is free street parking about two or three blocks away if you look for it . When I was ready for the bill I might have scared the server when I got her attention because I was the only one in there at the time and her attention might have been somewhere else at the time lol read more

I wish it was good. The fish and chips were awful I couldn't finish it. $30 for 2 piece and a beer it felt like cafeteria food. Staff were very friendly, but I won't go back for the food read more

Fantastic fish & chips, the batter is so crunchy. Their grilled chicken burger is very good as well. The environment is very pleasant and the staff are incredibly nice and welcoming, which is very refreshing compared to some of the newer (and ruder) restaurants around it. One of the last stores in this neighbourhood that hasn't been bought out, gentrified and yuppified. I hope everybody who reads this review decides to order from here at least once, because businesses like these that support the community (amazing prices) should be supported back. Thanks to the super nice ladies who work there for feeding me since a child (10 years+) and for showing my friends, family and me great hospitality. read more

Halibut fish and chips was excellent. They also were very willing to sub in grilled halibut instead of battered and sub a salad instead of chips. All was delicious including the coleslaw.

The extra star is for delivery, how cool to get this type of food when you don't feel like going out lol. It's probably not much of a comparison, but it's better than Mr. Pickwick's and a tad below C Lovers but without the high pricing. Clean place, near the northern end of the Drive. read more

Good if you get the specials off the Daily special board outside. No frills local fish and chip shop. Halibut is fresh and the chips are fresh cut. Which is the way it should be. Chowder is a little lacking in body and flavor. On the whole not a bad little spot. read more

Service is always great! The ladies are so kind and even remember you if you are local. We live close by so anytime we need a quick and cheap meal or even better, a hangover meal, we pop by and grab some specials or even some calamari. You can ask them for take out and its packed up so perfect and they never forget the tartar sauce(they even remember to only gove one since i hate the stuff). Dine in experience is nice And quaint, the decor is nice soft, the beer is cold, the seats are basic and i love everything about this place. read more

Found this place thanks to dad's relentless search for good fish & chips. He reckons it's going to be grand, so we made our way out for a drive down Commercial, no pun intended, in search of another promise for good fish & chips. It's a tiny, tiny establishment with about 26 seats in total. Not sure if it was a Sunday special but 3-piece cod & chips for $8.99? Sold. It's normally about double that, granted you do get larger pieces with the regular order. Service was incredibly slow as there seemed to have been lots of take-out orders. I began to wonder if they were going fishing back there in the kitchen. But when the cod & chips did make it to the table, they were actually quite nice. Crispy fish and certainly crispy chips! Not bad! It's not the most convenient place to get to and I'm not sure that it was enough for me to make special trips out here for the fish & chips, but if you are in neighbourhood looking for a decent plate, I would highly recommend stopping in. read more

I don't know if I've ever had fish and chips before but a friend suggested this place and I must say I was very impressed. There were four of us and we all had the special of cod and fries, one friend had the salmon, halibut and yam fries. I loved it! Amazing, and for that price you cannot beat it. For 8$ it was great value and we also had a couple of beers (decent selection on tap) and stayed and talked for a while. Imagine, talking with friends in person, such a rarity in these days of internet. ;) Overall very enjoyable experience and I'll definitely go back when I'm on the drive. Didn't take a photo but will next time. read more

The London Fish - Fish and chips - Fish & Chips Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

We ordered twice from them at Skip the dishes And both times there we're over an hour late When food said come it was soggy and stale Don't ever order from them through an online delivery service, you will never get it and the food will be cold and soggy The fries were soggy and the batter on the fish was falling off and the fish was gross Stay away from this place - it's a total joke read more

Stopped by and tried the all day specials. There was the $7 three piece cod special and the $8 one piece cod and one piece salmon special. We also ordered a $5 clam chowder as a starter. Portion size was good for the price. The chowder was very runny and lacked richness and flavour. There was an okay amount of seafood and veggies. The batter of the fish was light and crispy. I did find it a bit bland and it can benefit from more salt or spices. Fish was moist and cooked perfectly. Fries were crispy and perfectly fried but also needed some salt and vinegar for more flavour. I guess that is why there are condiments on the side so you can season the food to your liking. The coleslaw had a light coat of dressing and had a refreshing tartness that I liked. Service was prompt. We were seated right away and had water given to us shortly. Food also arrived shortly after we placed our order. We did have to flag our server to refill our water. I have had better fish and chips elsewhere but I also had to pay more. If people want to try some amazing salmon fish and chips, I recommend Washington Avenue Grill. Ocean Avenue Restaurant, Pajo's, and Cockney Kings Fish and Chips have better tasting batter in my opinion. However, for a filling and very well priced meal, this place does the job. read more

Not sure what place everybody else is reviewing? So, the staff was really sweet and nice and polite, and I didn't want to have to do this, but this is probably the worst fish and chips I have ever eaten, outside of a piece of shit side of the road three home town that is serving you cold McCain curly fries. The fries were hard. The fish was tasteless. The batter was not crisp or crunchy. Two piece halibut, that honestly, it was on sale and still felt like a rip off. Also, I've read raves about their coleslaw? Seriously? This is the plainest coleslaw I have ever eaten. I mean, it's better than a disgusting neon green mystery fest you get at KFC, but it's basically just shredded cabbage and that's it. No flavour. How about throw some apples in there or something? Anything. My brother got a salmon sandwich which was passable but he took about a minute to eat it because that's the kind of guy he is, so I don't trust his tastebuds. My mother got the grilled halibut with bruscetta salsa and minted peas. Not minty. Hardly peay. The fish again, had no flavour to speak of. I am very sorry. As I said, the staff seems like lovely people, but unfortunately that isn't enough to make this restaurant any good or a place I could recommend in any way. Do wish I tried the clam chowder but judging by the other dishes it probably just tastes like a bowl of cream. read more

Very disappointed in service here. Tried to order delivery twice in 1 day. First order cancelled with no explanation. Second order cancelled after door dash was at restaurant for at least 10 min. Restaurant was supposed to be open until later but at 7pm suddenly door dash reported the place was now closed. But they had accepted BOTH orders. Bad customer experience. I won't be back. read more

I've been ordering here for years but now lately the price keeps going up all the time. Since the last time I ordered the price went up another 3 dollars.

I'll check back to see if the price changes back to reasonable pricing read more

Went here the other day with the boyfriend and had a completely pleasant time. It's a sleepy little spot on the north end of Commercial and it's never very busy, so if you want fish & chips in a hurry this is a great place to try. I ordered a three piece cod and chips meal for under $8, and it came with a bit of coleslaw on the side. I'm not sure if they offer any other kinds of white fish, so if you're looking specifically for halibut or haddock you may want to go elsewhere. The portion size was perfect, and everything tasted great. I think this is a great reliable spot to get a good plate of comfort food fish & chips. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Boyfriend and I ordered a 'special' - $6 for two pieces fish plus chips and coleslaw and a fish burger. Had I known special means re fried yesterday's fish and smaller than regular I would definitely order the regular stuff cause I could definitely afford the extra $6. Also burger's buns were soggy. Slow service only one lady - polite yes - slow double yes. One customer (seemed like a regular) got 'nicer service' water with ice and straw and others got just glass of water no ice no straw. No second time. read more

I went to Windjammer's ages ago when it was on Main. I decided to try it again after I was reminded of it from Groupon. Hence, I bought the Groupon, and headed down with my family. The Groupon had great value, but unfortunately the food did not meet expectations. We got there fairly early, so our fries were refried, which made them super hard. Looking at the fish, it was not golden brown; it was more of a dark chocolate brown. It was overcooked in old oil; super disappointing. The waitress (possibly the owner) compensated by further discounting the food and trying to come up with viable explanations. The tables around us had better looking food, but compared to other fish and chip joints, the portions here were not as substantial. I would probably prefer Dave's in Steveston, Cockney Kings, or Austin Fish and Chips over this place. My friend Edward L. had a better experience than I did. read more

This place has super small portions. We only went there because we had a groupon so we thought we'd check it out (can't be that bad if its on Commercial Drive). However, I'd not recommend it to others. Better to try Cockney Kings who have the best fish and chips I've had in the Lower Mainland. The owners are Indian and I don't think they know much about running a business like this. They had country music playing and she refused to change the channel saying that "this is the only one we have". I bet she didn't even understand it. Food was not impressive with the taste or the portions. Save your money and go someplace else! read more

Went here with a groupon..my first experience was calling to make a reservation before I was allowed, was kind of rude about it. We ordered the fishcakes for appetizer, couldn't find the fish..more like potatoes cakes. Then we received our order - salmon burger and chicken burger. A huge bun hiding a dismal burned piece of chicken, not even a full breast. The other burger had two tiny pieces of salmon, was really pathetic. Asked for salad on one order and yam fries on the other, got fries on both but it was quickly fixed by giving us the salad and yam fries as well as fries. The last item was deep fried mars bar, how it came to the table cold is odd as usually they are hot out of the oil? It was ok. How does a place expect people to come back after serving such poor food? We won't be back and could not recommend it. read more

YUM! Was sad when the location on Main Street closed. Was happy when my honey told me that a location had opened on Commercial Drive. Was happier still once I tried the new location and found the food to be delicious. Reasonably priced. Daily specials. Quick, friendly service. Poutine is decent. Really nice chips, just the right about of crispy. Big curds. A beef/chicken gravy that is delicious but not too salty. Decent burgers. Yam fries and amazing chipotle mayo. (Pic: http://www.yelp.ca/biz_photos/ClOKH5gSKHElP0wY1oA4gQ?select=yF1jpmIQyQJESnXwjsWSNA ) Fish is a good deal. Reasonably sized pieces, tasty batter, and perfectly prepared in hot, fresh oil.

Brand new, this fish and chips haven moved from it's popular place on Main Street to Commercial Drive. That's another score for the Drive! As it should be, the fish batter was thin, flavourful and crispy. The fish however was a little too overcooked for my taste (I do prefer it on the raw side) but in all fairness, the fish slices were thick and flaky and my husband quite liked it. I should note we took it home, so the fish may have dried out in the process. The fries were slightly soggy as well. It was a nice looking joint with well-meaning staff members. The beer specials advertised outside looked fantastic too ($10 a pitcher). My husband commented that a lot of great local and international beers were on the menu. We will have to eat-in next time. I will not however have the french onion soup again. A somewhat burnt slice of bread covered a mountain of cooked onions. While the soup base was rather delectable, the processed cheese covering the soup detracted from its taste. Based on my limited experience, I will come back for eat-in fish and beer. I look forward to seeing this successful restaurant flourish for many more years on the Drive. People still need to find out about it, but I'm sure it won't be a secret for long. read more
