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

Montreal’s Best Kid-Friendly Restaurants | Eater Montreal

"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

The Best British-Inspired Restaurants in Montreal | Eater Montreal

"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

Listen, I've been here a few times and I've mostly enjoyed myself here, be it inside their cool looking restaurant or outside on their sunny patio. The food is good, the service is top notch and it's hard to beat their atmosphere. For this I'm giving it a 5 star review. HOWEVER if Google.ca would allow me I'd give it closer to 4.2, and that's because of how expensive this place is. I mean, this ain't gourmet food, it's proletariat food. I paid 13$ for their cod cakes, which compromises of only 5 small fish balls. First if all it's an appetiser to 5 is awfully awkward to share, 6 should be the standard number. And 13$ is just way too much. Tasty balls? Sure. Affordable balls? Nope! Anyways... Alaric recommends 👐 🐟 (just make sure to ask your employer for a raise 😉)

Amazing fish & chips!! Also, an amazing place to come for poutine, one of the best in the city!! They have a lovely outdoor seating area. I would definitely visit again!! The service is very quick and there isn’t much wait for food. They also have a number of beer options and cocktails as well. I love how they had a bowl of water outside of their restaurant for dogs, very British! This place is worth a visit! :)

Great Food, Authentic Atmosphere, but Service Could Be Better Had a great meal here! The fish and chips were fresh and crispy, definitely some of the best I’ve had. The popcorn crevettes were to die for—perfectly seasoned and addictive. However the tandoori sauce was too sour for my liking. Portions are generous, and for the quality and quantity, it’s absolutely worth the price. The atmosphere is very British, and for a moment, I felt like I was back in a pub in Manchester, enjoying a pint. It’s got that cozy, traditional feel, which I really appreciated. The only downside was the service. The lady server with curly hair didn’t seem very friendly and looked like she was just forced to be there. A little warmth and hospitality would have made the experience even better. Overall, I’d still recommend this place for the food and atmosphere!

I’ve tried fish and chips in London and this place truly matched the deliciousness of what I’ve eaten in the UK. They even import sodas from there (irn bru and Ben Shaw)! Plus the view is really good and the location isn’t swarming with people. After eating peacefully, you can enter the Old Montreal area where’s there’s a lot more people. Absolutely recommend! PS: get the dandelion soda, was really good.

Really good fish and chips as well as popcorn shrimp. Uniqueness to the batter and really similar to the UK with the sides such as curry sauce and mushy peas. Interior is really cute and reminds me of chippys I’ve been to in England, good patio as well!

Montreal is not the city to come to for exceptional fish and chips, however, if you happen to find yourself craving it while you're in the city then this is a fine place to tide you over. Though if you're used to great fish n' chips, you'll have to keep looking. Great decor tho! The tarter sauce was a bit stodgy, the vinegar lacked punch, and the fries were on the mushier side. The fish was cooked fairly well though and the batter they used was inoffensive. It'll be a perfectly palatable meal to most. I will say our service was quite poor, we had to refill our own glasses with water we brought from a hike on numerous times, the server didn't come by even once. We even had to go to the front and ask for the bill at the end and that was the first we saw the staff after they gave us our food.

This is a must try restaurant. We were exploring old Montreal, and honestly just looking for lunch and a watercloset ha! But what an awesome surprise , staff were sooo very accomidating even though the extent of our French was nervously mumbling je ne comprand pas francais (still not sure) but what an experience we had ! The fish was battered and fried to perfection. The chips were fantastic and perfectly cooked golden brown. You can tell they watch their oil temps and times closely and you can taste it too! Service was fast and with a smile. Also the restaurant is beautiful and CLEAN it's a great space providing a fast friendly and delicious dining experience. It was very easy to see how much the staff and management cared. This visit was not planned but it may be my favorite meal of our trip!

I like the spot a lot, my boyfriend and I come here quite often and the food is really good! You should try out the calamari, we always get the haddock which comes with fries, and an extra piece of cod and that’s enough for us or you can do whatever. The pitcher of beer is super affordable too. Service does take a while, but honestly if you go up to the front and ask for something they’re always available .

We loved Brit & Chips! My husband and I love fish and chips and were looking for a place that also has poutine. We both ordered drinks, I had the cider lacroix and my husband had the burgundy lion ale, both were crisp and delicious! We both had the cod and my husband upgraded his fries to poutine for $5 extra. The fish was delicious, batter was flavorful and the fish was super fresh. My husband absolutely LOVED his poutine! His favorite part of the meal. Our bill was around $80 for everything, not bad! We would absolutely come back here.

A fun spot worth checking out! We visited Montreal and I always enjoy trying the different varieties of food especially here. The fish and chips were delicious and flavorful! I would add a little salt but that's just me. I enjoyed their tarter sauce and aioli. The aioli I liked more with the fish. The staff was very friendly and we talked for a few minutes on the way out. The only thing I was not a huge fan of was the Indian shrimp. I also like that instead of regular fries you can get poutine. It's an acquired taste but I respect it.

For price, experience, and taste I'd rate this place well! It's pretty small on the inside but the food was great, quick and the service was stellar. I'd definitely visit again. I'm not sure about a large group fitting in this place but it works for a family of 4, 2 or 1.

Followed a group of people into this eatery...so glad we did! There's just times when you want some solid fish and chips...nothing fancy, just great! This place fits the bill. It was tough navigating through the narrow, crowded hall to get in, but a friendly server quickly met us. She steered us to the only open table (alas, it was lunch hour)! The menu is one page front and back: the food served from a counter where the waft of fried goodness tickles your appetite. When it gets to your table, it's delivered on trays with checkered paper...mouth-watering and delicious! Add your favorite condiments and you're good to go!

This has got to be one of the best fish and chips restaurants in the western hemisphere! I have never had true fish and chips, but I'd now bet on this place against any person who says I need to go to England to have true fish and chips. The fish was so crispy on the outside while moist and fluffy on the inside. And the chips were fantastic too. Bonus - first time I have ever seen giant Heinz ketchup packets (I put them to good use, only needed 3 instead of 15 or so of the normal sized ones )!

Had the cod & haddock, both ok. The fries are ok, could be better/crispier & less dark. The apple fritters/beignets are good. The big portions are nice. Cramped space for party of 7 but was ok. Bathroom in back.

Delicious is the only way to describe this place! We came after the lunch rush and ordered the haddock and a side of poutine. We still talk about how good the haddock was. They use maple syrup in their batter to give it and appropriately sweeter taste. The poutine were tasty too! Definitely worth a visit!

I loved the different choices of fish and batters. The maple batter was so light and just a tad sweet. Overall the fish, fries and coleslaw were delicious, however the price is pretty high considering the sides aren't even included. The place is small and rustic. Quick and friendly service.

Brit & Chips earned a well deserved five stars from me, not because they have the most extensive menu or best ambience, but that they excel at their speciality as a fish and chips restaurant. I've visited many chip shops in the UK, where my only criteria was choosing ones that claim to serve the best fish and chips in the world. I was so impressed with Brit & Chips that I purchased one of their t-shirts, my first souvenir 3 days into my visit in Montreal. The cod was lightly breaded and perfectly cooked. The tartar sauce was excellent. You can tell by the picture that it is not the usual mayonnaise with a minimum amount of pickles, dill, etc added. This is all the great ingredients with the minimum amount of mayonnaise. I did not try the chips based on a prior review, not because they were not rated high, but that two pieces of cod would be enough for lunch. Finally, the staff could not have been more hospitable. The owner has done a great job recruiting and taking care of his staff. I can tell because they genuinely appeared happy to be there with each other. They were so nice to me and the customers around me.

My fish-and- chips-loving- husband wanted lunch here and it was a great choice!! The fish was fresh and delicious and I was sooo pleased to find spicy Mayo for my chips. We also shared a poutine which was much better than some of the "famous" poutine spots in Montreal! Portion was generous and we left full. Indoor and outdoor seating. Cute little British vibe inside as well. I'd definitely recommend!

It was okay. They served a large portion for the fish, but I didn't feel like there was any seasoning at all. It was pretty expensive in my opinion, which was the biggest downer since it was just fish and chips. The ambiance was quaint and cozy, but we chose to have our order to go. Nothing special to say about the service, because we were in and out. I wish I had more to say, but nothing really stood out about this experience.

I specifically chose this place for their fish and chips. This was my first time trying mushy peas. Everything was very good. Staff was friendly.

The food was good but not an especially inspired interpretation of fish and chips. I did get to try mushy peas for the first time, but it was fine--it rather reminded me of bland mashed potatoes. The service was a bit more slow than I would have thought for only having a couple tables occupied; I don't just mean getting food after ordering, but the whole experience of getting drinks ordered and so on.

Such a great place and they were open on Christmas EVE. LARGE fish portions. I was going to order an extra fish to add to the two but I'm glad I didn't. We were so full. Fish was excellent. When in Montreal, I'm going back.

Legit fish and chips coming from a person who grew up on this in London. Will definitely come back again the next time in Montreal.

Sunday night to go. 2 Fish & Chips & 2 Samosas. 2 bottled waters. Batter was not crisp but soggy. Chips were soggy. I guess that's normal. Fish was a bit old but edible as we were hungry. This place must be a plant to send tourists to other locations in the area. $73 including tip. Steer Clear.

You haven't been to Great Britain if you haven't had their Fish & Chips (" C'est un incontournable"). Many fish & chips shops offer their traditional dish served in newspapers, as I recall. My craving took me to Brit & Chips which captures that traditional dish. I ordered, for take out, one of the popular fish on the menu, Cod in a Burgundy Lion Ale Batter. If you are not calorie counting, then you would also indulge in their fries. I stopped short of my temptation to order the fries, even at just an additional $2. This would have otherwise put me to sleep, let alone feeling guilty afterwards. The beer battered fish is indeed epic, fried to perfection, with the right amount of flavour, perhaps lacking saltiness for some, but just right for me. Crunchy batter and juicy fish - It feels like eating high end, while still enjoying the greasy delights of fried battered fish. Good thing that I did not order fries, as the fish portion was large enough for my lunch. It comes with a generous piece of lemon and a tartare/mayo sauce. Once the calories wear off and cravings come back, I will perhaps go for the "chips".

Spotted Brit & Chips one day while walking around the city and decided on our last night to give it a try. They have a few tables outside where we ate. Service was both prompt and friendly. We had the cod fish n chips which was delicious and this is coming from a girl who lives on the coast in RI! My only complaint was the coleslaw. Not a fan. Highly recommend if you are in the area.

Absolutely delicious. I had salmon and cole slaw and the husband had cod and chips. You can get it with or without chips, so I didn't order chips. He got plenty for two people! The cole slaw is the vinegar type and I loved it. The guys that work here are so friendly and very helpful in recommending meals. The batter is so light and crispy I could eat here every week!

The space is tiny but clean - service is super quick However food itself was lacking - fish was fine(nothing special) but bit too greasy. The chips were just fried and had no flavor. The shrimp was just fine at the best Reasonable place for quick meal but not on my list of returns

My favorite fish & chips! Came here on a Saturday evening. The restaurant was busy but no need for reservations as we were immediately seated on their outdoor patio. I ordered the Haddock and Chips because the batter was made with maple syrup/(when in Canada, do as the Canadians)! The fish and chips were DELICIOUS. The Haddock tasted very fresh and the batter was the perfect balance of sweet and savory. The fish was very moist, almost wet, which threw me off a little but did not negatively impact the flavor or texture of the fish. The "chips"/fries also tasted slightly sweet but didn't appear to be battered so maybe the potatoes were a sweet variety. Either way, they were also wonderful. Our waitress mentioned that during the pandemic, they decreased the number of restaurants from 3 to 1. I'm so glad that this location is surviving the pandemic! Because their food is delicious. Highly recommend.

Syrup battered haddock...enough said. Seriously though, this place was delish. Quaint and definitely busy around lunch, the service is great, the food is served piping hot, and the atmosphere is pleasant. The flavor of the maple syrup mixed with the batter is subtle enough that it doesn't overpower the flavor of the fish but gives a nice sweet enhancement. The fries are hot and crispy too!

If you like grease so much it costs your mouth and throws your stomach for a loop, this is your place! For two orders of fish and one poutine, your looking at around $45. Yikes! Oh and they'll throw in the dark brown batter cooked in too hot of oil in my opinion. Save your money and keep walking down the street

I really love this place! I've been here 5 or 6 times and the Fish and Chips are consistently delicious. They have several different types of fish to choose from, each with its own tasty batter. I prefer the classic Cod with beer batter but the Haddock with maple syrup batter is also quite good. I had lunch here a couple of times pre-COVID and both visits were great: friendly and fast service, a cool British inspired interior (sort of a cross between a pub and one of those stand up takeout joints in London), a small but excellent selection of English beers, and piping hot fish and chips. Yum! The portion sizes are huge consisting of two good size portions of fish on top of a mountain of fresh fries. These days are takeout only and the takeaway packaging is excellent: my servings have all been hot and fresh even when walking home in the middle of winter. I would go out of my way to have lunch here, swing by and give it a try!

Very pleasant place for some very tasty fish and chips. I ordered the cod . Regular order comes with 2 pieces and chips if you like. I also ordered an extra piece of fish and 2 beers. It definitely put me over the top. But in a good way. Service was good and I have no complaints. Come try some fish and chips.

Pretty good overall great fish and chips (fries) but the chips were to my taste at least kinda overcooked and they were too much also the batter was kinda too sweet for my taste even thought I genrally have a big sweet tooth (I took the Haddock with maple batter) Staff was super sweet and helpful and we didn't too long before getting our food and they're really careful too on special request as I'm allergic to Shrimps I asked them to be careful to not make it in contact with my food and they took it in consideration . I also forgot to mention that every employees were wearing a mask and we had to wait like 2 minutes the time they clean the table people used before us good job for real guys ;) So I definitely recommende this restaurant if you come to Montreal

My husband and I walked in without knowing anything about this restaurant, because we were standing right outside it and we like fish and chips. We wanted to take a look inside and see how crowded it was, and check the menu and prices, before deciding if we want to eat here or go elsewhere. The second we walked in the door, an employee yelled from all the way across the room, "for here or to go?" I did not want to shout across the room, so I held up one finger trying to indicate give me one minute to decide if I even wanted to stay here. She repeated even more loudly, demanding "FOR HERE OR TO GO?". The restaurant was very crowded and very noisy, so I walked across the room to the staff member, since I don't shout across rooms. I told her we wanted to check the menu first, but I would start with a beer at the bar. She said "You have to buy food." I didn't like her tone and said "We might, or we might just get drinks." She rudely said "You're not allowed to get a beer and just sit here without ordering food." I have never encountered this rule in my life and it annoyed me. I said "fine" and got the smallest appetizer to go and took it outside to eat. The food was quite tasty so I actually might go here again.

The Cod Fish & Chips was amazing! The fish was perfectly crispy outside and freshly tender inside. The fries were delicious. We also ordered Shrimp Salad, which was refreshing. I definitely recommend the fish and chips!

My friends and I were in the area and decided to stop here for lunch. We ordered Cod with a side of Chips, Salmon with a side of Chips and Poutine to share between the 3 of us!! We could have ordered one less meal and still have plenty to eat!! The servings are HUGE. The fish tasted excellent and was very fresh! In love with this place and would recommend to anyone looking for a generic Brit & Chips experience!

I had the pleasure of dining at Brit & Chips with a bunch of my friends over NYE weekend. We just stumbled upon the place since it was one of the only places open late at night. Holy cow, this place was insanely delicious! Two giant thumbs up. Since we had a large group, we ordered everything on the fish menu. Everything was delicious. However, the sole in the sour cream and onion batter was HANDS DOWN the best choice on the menu. You can not go wrong with the other options, though since all the fish was so fresh, & the batter on the fish had the perfect amount of crispiness. Food - A+++++ Service - A+ Beer - A+

This place was really close to the airbnb I was staying at. I've seen many great reviews and decided to stop by after I landed in MTL. All I can say is what a great way to start my trip here. The place itself was small inside, vintage/old style, narrow restaurant and packed with people. The food was amazing, probably the best fish and chips I've ever had: doesn't compare to any of the fish and chips I've had in Toronto. I got the orange crush batter fish and tried the original cod with chips. The chips were super crispy and tasty. The cod seasoning was super yummy and the orange crush battered fish was perfect. It had a light seasoning (slight taste of the orange) and not oily at all; other places make it really oily, something I've always disliked with other fish and chips places. I would definitely recommend this place and would love to come back here when I visit again.

Got the cod fish and chips with poutine. The batter was good but the fish inside was overdone. I wasn't a fan of the poutine as the fries were undercooked and so they were hard inside (but also soggy at the same time because of the gravy).

Yelp
Poutines and popcorn shrimp?!? I'm in heaven. This was my first stop when I landed in Montreal- gotta get those poutines!... To top it off why not a unique version of poutines with popcorn shrimp?! Yes please! The poutines alone are great. Super large chunks of cheese and a great mild gravy - not too salty or over powering. The fries are super thick cut and homemade which makes everything alone great, but put them together is perfection! The shrimp is also super crispy, but not too greasy. It was probably one of my favorite popcorn shrimps. The sea food tasted fresh and you can tell it was battered in house. It wasn't a weird taste eating the shrimp and poutines together either. It was a great way to spend the first rainy day in Montreal! Staff is super friendly and too !

Yelp
The fish was delicious. Crispy batter, solid tartar sauce, and the fries needed a little more love. A bit more crisp on the fries and they would have it. The tables could use some malt vinegar. Service was alright. Our server went off to eat and no one checked if we wanted a refill of our drinks during our meal. They could have sold another pint of beer or another piece of fish to me easily. Servers in Montreal seem not to check in and ask how your meal is doing. Been to 6 restaurants in the last week and not one server has checked in. The restaurant is like a British Fish place. Quaint and simple with tight seating and no frills. I would go again.

We found Brit & Chips whilst wandering downtown Montreal looking for a spot that was low-key and open after 9pm. Food: We had the cod and chips, sausage roll, popcorn shrimp, and a scotch egg. Cod had a nice batter and was perfectly cooked on the inside. Chips were just right. The sausage roll had a good flavor to it, but we weren't expecting that to be deep fried too as we've typically had baked sausage rolls. Popcorn shrimp was a little over cooked, but that could have been due to the paprika that coated it. Scotch egg came with a tasty chutney. Service: For take out orders, it's counter style ordering. For eat in, they have table service. Friendly and efficient, our server was also cook and cashier. Cost: Two cod and chips, one sausage roll, one scotch egg, popcorn shrimp and two sodas ran us about CAD$55. Overall: Great for the occasional deep fried goodness. They even have deep fried desserts! Clean with friendly service. Cash and cards accepted. And they are open past 9pm.

Very solid fish and chips. The service was excellent and the staff were friendly. The fish was great, the fries could use some work. Tried both the cod and the haddock. The cod was better, the haddock had a very fishy taste. Their tarter sauce was delightful. Either way I would come back and I would recommend.

This place is not opened by Brits, but rather it's a local Brit-inspired chippie. Service is great, and they have a variety of fish and batter to choose from. They even have a version using Halloumi cheese for vegetarians!! We tried a few varieties (the waitress let us know that we can get one fillet as a half order). Batter wise, I like the Sour Cream 'n Onion the best. Burgandy is nice too, but while the maple syrup one is very popular, I don't really like the sweetness of it. As for the fish, we prefer the firmer texture of cod and haddock over the sole. That said, we did enjoy everything.

Fish (Cod) was delicious. The fries were heavy and not as crispy as I like them. No need to order more than 1 order of fries for two people since it's an extra large helping of frites.

I had fish and chips the first time at Brit & Chips, and I must say it's a wonderful thing! This restaurant offers very interesting batter flavors and many kinds of fish. The food is fresh out of the fyer, portions are generous and prices affordable. The creamy dips are also delicious, both for the fish and the fries. If eating too much fried food makes you feel sluggish/stuffy, you can try adding lemon juice or vinegar (it helps a bit). Apart from the fish, we also tried their Tandoori Popcorn Shrimp, which was good, but nothing special. I recommend trying their Ben Shaws sodas - again, they have interesting flavors, such as Dandelion&Burdock and Bitter Shandy. Really happy they added a location on Maisonneuve!

I'm not much of a Fish and Chips kind of guy, but a friend who grew up in Montreal recommended this place, so my wife and I wanted to give it a try. My wife had the cod and liked it. I had the salmon, and it was fantastic! I thought about ordering more pieces, but did not. I'm glad I got out of my comfort zone and came here. The fries were OK. We both ordered them poutine style. They are very rich, and I would probably order them without the cheese next time. But that is just a personal preference on how I like my poutine.

I forgot how much I love this restaurant, it's so delicious and filling! I brought my friend for the first time and she LOVED it! She's a huge foodie so i knew she'd appreciate this place! (They even have a mini terrasse for the summer) The staff is very friendly and the price is really good for the quality and quantity you get for a meal. The fish is cooked just right, with just enough fried batter without having oil leaking everywhere. The tartar sauce is made in house with good a balance of lemon and sweet radish. We both took the 14$ combo (fish and chip+drink). I took the maple syrup Haddock, which was amazing. The taste of the maple syrup wasn't over powering and wasn't too sweet. We also took the Tandoori popcorn shrimp. Now I'm not the biggest fan of Tandoori but it was pretty good. We couldn't even finish the fries we were so stuffed! Highly recommend going here!One of my favourite places for fish and chips!

Fish and chips were excellent. Service outstanding! So enjoyable watching waitress giving treats to all the dogs with their owners walking by.

We were staying nearby in Old Montreal and were looking for a place to grab a cheap and quick meal later in the evening. I saw great reviews on this place and decided to visit. We got there about 45 minutes before closing and the place was practically empty. Our server was very friendly and efficient. Menu had fish and chip combos for about $13-15. There is also a combo with fish and chips, and a beer for about $16-18, which is a great deal. We got the Salmon and chips and a side of fried shrimp. Food came out super fast in about 10-15 minutes. The food was very good. I was worried, as with most places, that the batter would take up most of the fish, but the batter was thin and crunchy enough a sufficient amount of fish. The fries were average. The shrimp was good. I would definitely recommend this place for a quick and cheap meal.
