Front entrance
John Y.

Nice mom & pop business, 2 owners/staff we're friendly and accommodating. Ordered 2 lunch specials (cod or haddock), fries & pop $9.95. Great deal as fries are generous and one large fish portion. A slight wait as fish/fries are cooked to order. Fish has a nice light tempura like batter which compliments the fish. Fries were hand cut and not the frozen variety As usually, why is it only a small portion of tartar sauce given verses the amount of fish, must be a conspiracy amongst all the fish & chip restaurants to limit the amount of tartar sauce given to customers. They did have malt vinegar & ketchup on the tables though. Very pleasant lunch and value for your money

Finally got to try this place! Came on Monday and realized they were closed! So glad we were able to try again! After reading about them and having a craving for fish & chips this place was on our radar! Came here for lunch today around 2pm on a Friday! Love their lunch special! $10.95 includes a drink! You also get a choice of cod & chips (my fave!), haddock & chips (my bf got that one) or Halibut on a bun & chips! I loved my cod it was nice and tender and soft! While the haddock had a more firmer texture and also flaky in its own way! We weren't sure which was which but I liked the cod best while my boyfriend preferred the haddock! Also if you pay cash it's 10% off! Looking forward to coming back on a regular basis whenever we crave fish & chips! Took one star off coz the tartare sauce was soooo minuscule. Definitely not enough for the fish & chips! Otherwise would be 5 star place for sure!

Like many other Small family fish n chip restaurant, decor needs a bit of updating. Otherwise the food is not bad. The Haddock I ordered is a medium size piece filet, but the batter is not very thoroughly covered. The home fries is good size portion, enough carb to fill you up. The combo comes with a pop, for the price of $12 including tax, you can't complaint. Maybe it's because I came at 4pm, with no other customers in the restaurant, most of the lights are dimmed, making the place feels more run down. I rated it 3.5 stars, because of ambience I round it down to 3 stars.

Halibut Meal for 2

Been here once for opening as well as recently. Gotta say I'm impressed that they maintained quality all this time. Ordered the Halibut Meal for 2 for ~$25 and it was enough. The fish is cooked really well and since it's not very salty or strong, I can actually finish all of the fries without feeling like I need a coke to wash all the sodium down. The fish is crisp on the outside yet surprisingly soft and fluffy on the inside, makes for a rather satisfying bite each time. Fries are pretty average, no complaints here. There aren't too many seats so be wary of that. Service is prompt and friendly overall. Lots of parking in the plaza as well. Don't forget to check in on Yelp for the extra 10% off, which is really the icing on top. If you haven't tried this place before, give it a shot, it's great food at reasonable prices.

Fish & chips | Limited seating | No alcohol license Small restaurant seats about 30. If you check in with Yelp will give you10% off coupon when you check in and dine in. No liquor license so no beer with your fish and chips. Simple menu with fish, chips, shrimp, scallop, souvlaki and more. Ran by Chinese (Cantonese speaking) couple. Portions sizes are lunch portions. The fish pieces are the center palm of my hand, unlike western fish and chip restaurants where it's a long steak size. Service is moderately slow. But the frying quality is worth the wait. The fish were crispy on the outside and soft and moist on the inside. The scallop was the same. Their salad dressings are limited to Italian, french, thousand Island and Caesar. Overall it's a good place for a quick lunch.

I have always been a fan of fish n chips. Saw this place nearby with a high rating and decided to check it out. So I'm curious in checking this out. Ordered their daily special. My opinion is their uses less salt maybe? Than other fish n chips restaurants. The fish is nice and crispy, but would personally prefer more flavor and seasoning. The chips (fries) are OK.

One piece with the shrimps.

Been reading the reviews in the area and decided upon Amy's. Simple, straightforward and good, Amy's has the hallmarks of a great fish 'n chips shop. On a quiet Sunday afternoon we decided to stop in for a quick bite, just before the evening rush. We ordered a one piece halibut and another with 5 shrimps. The fish was fresh, the batter light and not greasy which one might expect. There was a nice smidge of tartar sauce, coleslaw and a wedge of lemon. The quality was good, the service efficient and attentive. From a price point perspective, it is about $10.00 for the one piece, $12.00 with the shrimp and all in was $26.00. for checking in, we received a 10% discount which was a pleasant surprise. Overall, I agree with the majority of the reviews in terms of location, value and price. Maybe a bit of a larger portion on the one piece would be nice, but would likely order the 4 piece next time! Good job!

I really wanted to eat fish and chips that day. I was by Yonge and Elgin Mills and we spotted "York Fish & Chips" as we are finishing up our cigrette a nice eldery man stopped and chatted explained how last Sunday he wanted to eat here and unfortunately they were closed on Sunday's and referred us to Amy's Fish & Chips that was close by; he explained to us how now he is a regular customer at Amy's, I am so glad for his input because we did go to Amy's Fish & Chips and I dont regret our decision. I am actually glad York Fish & Chips by Elgin Mills was closed because I was forced to go there to eat knowing I already didnt like the taste of the food at that location. Amys Fish & Chips family restaurant is a cozy atmosphere and the young male waiter is very friendly and polite, Amy came out to take our order (Halibut for 2) she was super friendly and knows how to make a great crispy batter. The food came out quick and the taste was deliciously amazing and the portion was a good size. I will diffently be returning and will recommend Amy's fish and chips to family and friends the price is great and the staff is excellent. Thank you for the delicious meal on Sunday

Halibut Meal for Two
Byris L.

We were in the area and decided to give this place a try after reading such high reviews. I was a little skeptical at first (we were the only customers at 3PM on a Sunday) but giving this place a try ended up being the best decision we made. We ordered the halibut meal for two which came with four pieces of fish, fries and a side of coleslaw. The perfect portion. The fish was crispy and a perfect mix of batter and fish. In the words of my bf: "this is the best fish and chips I've had in a while, everything on this dish tastes good!" Honestly, I have to agree with him. It was delicious and I'm glad I gave this place a try. Would definitely return to this hidden gem if I'm in the area again.

Haddock one piece combo special, includes a drink $8.95

Quite spacious in the restaurant with good parking outside. Fairly pleasant service. You get a bit of a discount if you pay by cash.

Finally, fish and chips are back in Stouffville!…read more I've been to Joy's Fish & Chips a few times since they opened mid-2024. I've eaten in and taken out, both of which were mostly positive experiences. The service is consistently friendly and pleasant to interact with. It feels like everyone genuinely enjoys working here, which is a big difference maker. The only minor issue is when dining in. In the first few months of being open I find that the restaurant is often packed and service can be a bit slow (as of December 2024). Other than that, service has been fantastic. As I mentioned earlier, the restaurant often seems busy if you're dining in. However, since I live so close I prefer to take out. As of now they don't have any delivery services but if you're willing to pick up for yourself they're pretty quick. I've had big orders that's I've called in and told it would be ready in 20 min. When I go to the restaurant and order (a smaller order) it's only usually about 10-15 minutes even when the restaurant is packed. The food is very, very good! The fish is battered and cooked to order, which you can see for yourself from the takeout counter. It has a delicious crispy batter while the fish stays moist. The fries (chips) are nice and thick and perfectly fried. My only minor complaint is that the fries need more salt. But that's something I can add myself. I've also tried their scallops and shrimp. Both are really good but not quite the same level of their fish. While I don't know if they're battered to order, they're still juice and fried perfectly. Worth trying! Lastly, I just wanted to mention parking. They have a few parking spots to the right of the building, which is perfect for takeout since the takeout entrance on the right side of the building. They have a few parking spots in front and then also quite a spots to the left of the building. Plenty of parking! Overall, I'm super happy Joy's Fish & Chips! I've been going fairly regularly and I've only had great experiences.

Halibut House is a place that specializes in our beloved fish & chips. A small establishment from…read morePort Perry that grew over the past decade to become a large fish & chip franchise in Ontario. Curiosity may have killed the cat, but inspired our fish appetite! Haddock & Chips order had an impressively sized fish fillet piece along with plenty of thick cut fries underneath. For takeout, we were peeved that they used pre-packed condiments for tartar sauce rather than provide some homemade or dine-in option. But the fish itself was golden & crunchy on the outside with pleasant flaky fillet texture inside. Well worth it, and they even offer $11 Sun/Mon specials. As for the Halibut & Chips, we were sadly underwhelmed by our first attempt. The fish is firm, mild in flavour with perhaps a little bit of sweetness. It tasted rather bland. We may have to try it fresh to see if it's an acquired taste. Otherwise we'll stick to cod/haddock. The fries accompanying both were a tad soggy but did a bit better with a splash of S&P. To be honest, we've had comparable fish & chips elsewhere. We've even started to rely on our own air fryer at home to cut some grease. However, for convenience it's good to know that Halibut House is a fish & chip option just a stone's throw away from us!

The fish and chips are solid choices and they live up to their name. A good amount of chips that come with the meal. I think for the price we were a bit disappointed by the quantity of the calamari and for the chicken souvlaki, a bit sad looking (see pic) and not as flavourful or just below par. Definitely skip the souvlaki here and get what they're known for. Plenty of seating inside the restaurant. However, we just ordered for takeout.

I said ok no problem Upon my food arriving it was pretty small ( look at pic). And I would have given a 1 star review But I must say the halibut (even though miniature in size) was actually crispy and flavourful and even though I didn't take a picture, the fish was pretty thick. Therefore my reason for 3 stars. Also, the fries were not quite right for a fish and chips shoppe. Either they were frozen or they were re-cooked for too long and they were hard, bland and tasteless. I will still keep my review at 3 stars. But I don't think I'll be back anytime soon. Sorry, hope they can do better for other patrons.

The batter wasn't too thick, greasy, or salty, and the fish filet was thick enough that it retained its structure when eating (instead of becoming a flaky mess). Chips were decent, but not the standout for me. Even their seniors portion size of fish & chips is quite filling. I also really enjoyed the seafood chowder, though it was on the saltier side. Shocked at how large the bowl of chowder was for the price, and they did not skimp out on the ingredients. No one wants a chowder that's 80% roux/cream base and 20% veggies with canned or frozen seafood mixed in. Be forewarned that finding parking on Main St Newmarket can be challenging during events and busier times/seasons!
