Brit & Chips

The Best Restaurants in Old Montreal | Eater Montreal

"The folks behind Old Montreal lunch staple Brit & Chips are responsible for several of the city’s top British food purveyors, including nearby Wolf & Workman, on St-Paul Street West. Here, the focus is on all sorts of fish and chips, including ale-battered cod and, for a locally inflected option, haddock encased in a maple syrup coating. Scotch eggs, mushy peas, and deep-fried Oreos complete the experience." - Eater Staff

"Deep-fried foods for the kids? Check. Beer and wine for the parents? Also check. Open day and night, this oh-so-British affair neatly straddles the line of being ideal for families without feeling fast food-y or low-rent. As the name implies, fried seafood makes up much of the menu, but there are a few salads and other English tidbits like curry chips and Scotch eggs." - Erinn Blicher

"Indulge Your Chippy Craving Fish and chips is a well-known staple of British cuisine, and while the British troops left Canada well before the 20th century, this lovely dish still lingers in Montreal . Brit & Chips' mission is to capture as authentically as possible the experience of a good old-fashioned "chippy" and add a tiny twist of Montreal 's essence. The result? A delicious selection of six types of fish dipped in just as many batters, from maple syrup to Guinness. Try the maple-syrup battered haddock with a generous side of fries and a traditional London Pride."

The Best French Fries in Montreal | Eater Montreal

"The fries — or chips, rather — at this classic UK-inspired “chippy” are everything that British-style chips should be: thick, fluffy planks of potato goodness inside a crispy exterior. Best enjoyed with a side of battered fish (or tofu), mushy peas, and a pint." - Holly Tousignant

"Stepping into this busy Old Montreal spot (which has a second location downtown on Maisonneuve) feels like stepping into a classic late-night chippy in a British seaside town (albeit with more seating and fewer post-club night revellers). Brit & Chips offers the classic beer battered cod n’ chips alongside other chip shop essentials like sausage rolls, chips with curry sauce, mushy peas, and deep-fried sweets, but the less conventional options such as hake with gluten free Orange Crush batter or smoked tofu with chipotle batter are worth trying (and you can wash it all down with a nice, cold Irn Bru)." - Holly Tousignant
