I came for the week to Pacifica. I love fish and chips! I don't have any fish and chip places, near where I live. So I was really wanting some, while on vacation. I tried one place close to where I am staying, not very good. I tried Camelot and it was PERFECT! The service was sooo nice! Quick, kind, excellent skills! And the lady (Wednesday 30th 12:45pm) checked on me etc. perfect service. The ambiance was perfect also. Door open so we get a cool breeze. As soon as I stepped into the place, I was in a different world. They even have a pic of the now King Charles, on the wall. Beautiful woodworking, clean, sanitary and kept clean as the customers left. There was a constant stream of customers. I love this place more than any other fish and chips place, I've been to. I'd gladly drive for the day to Pacifica, just to come to Camelot and the beach! The fish was savory, tender, moist, it glistened with freshness, cooked perfectly, the breaded covering crispy and not over done! Sorry I didn't eat the chips today (I was already full!), but they smelled wonderful and looked perfect! The lady didn't forget one condiment. She knows her job and does it superbly! I think EVERYONE should come to Camelot! read more

Camelot Fish & Chips - The Camelot plus one piece of extra fish. DELICIOUS! - Seafood Near Me - Pacifica, California

I've been looking forward to trying this place but found the batter inside soggy. The pieces of fish are large so I wished my friend and I shared 2 pieces rather than 3. I had to request lemon wedges as they only brought over tartar sauce and ketchup. The staff was friendly. However I had an upset stomach after the meal, and later before I mentioned it to her my friend commented the food didn't agree with her. read more

Me and my friend were in the area and wanted to have lunch. We both were craving some fish and chips. A local recommended this place and we wanted to try it. We were so happy when I orders came, we had smiles on our face as she placed our baskets on the table. I could tell this place was well known in the neighborhood they had a steady flow of people as we and others ate inside. This brought back memories for me as a child when there was H&S Salt in the Bay Area. The service was friendly, we will return, we left happy. read more

Camelot Fish & Chips - Delicious! Craving satisfied the fish & shrimp was flavorful, crispy ! - Seafood Near Me - Pacifica, California

TERRIBLE! For a place that specializes in fried food, the fish & chips and fried scallops were the worst I've ever had. Scallops were frozen and squirted out liquid at first bite, which is an indication that it was frozen. The fish batter was soggy and peeled off immediately at first bite. Fries were soft and lacked crispiness. Save your money and go elsewhere. The food is an insult to Britain. read more

Fantastic service by a local family owned restaurant in Pacifica. The fish & chips are incredibly good and authentic to London style. Very nice place and chill vibe to bring the family or friends. If you like fish & chips and Smithwicks ice cold - this is the place for you! read more

We are here visiting from the UK and were told we just had to visit this English fish and chip restaurant during our stay. You step across the quaint threshold and are transported into a tiny piece of England. The decor and memorabilia is spot on and you are warmly welcomed by the British waitress. We wanted to try the fish and chips immediately but were tempted by some of the other options on the menu. To start we had the jalapeño poppers and crunchy onion rings. Both were delicious! On to the main attraction and wow were we ever impressed. The fish was succulent and the batter was crisp and light and I can say with confidence that the chips were some of the best I've eaten. Despite being full my husband still wanted to try the battered Mar's bar and said it was something else! Friendly staff, great food and brilliant English feel to the place. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone that wants a taste of traditional English fish and chips read more

I wanted to take one star off for business hours not being long enough. However, being that their fish and chips are soooooo knock back I had to make it 5 stars. I come here for the prawns and chips extra extra salt and vinegar! The fact that they still wrap the food up in newspapers makes me happy. Idk where they get their fish but it's always plump, juicy, and flaky. When I say flaky I mean the fork separation to the fish. I don't like mushy fish so I hope I explained that. Inside is small but who needs to eat indoors when the beach is right down the street. This place is always busy and staff always manage to keep a smile on their face. Best fish & chips in the bay hands down. If I'm lying I'm flying. read more

Came to this place because of the reviews. It definitely did disappoint us coming here. Everyone in the reviews said that the chicken and chips was a great choice, and it was absolutely rubbish. I've had better chicken from a gas station for $20 a plate I will definitely not be coming back. read more

I'll just come right out and say this is straight up the best fish and chips I've ever had. Well.. at least the "fish" in fish and chips. The chips are kinda whatevs but do yourself a favor and get the onion rings instead. The onion rings are GOOD! You can order the breading regular or salt and vinegar. Love that. There's a slight salt flavor which is more fragrant that you actually taste. It's not overpowering. The Camelot has shrimp, oysters, a piece of fish and scallops. Yum! Get some variety in your life. The clams are good too. I can't finish even the fish and chips entree but I still won't share lol read more

I want to start this review by saying I absolutely HATED fish and chips prior to coming here. I've had so many shitty, oily, and soggy batches in my life that I had given up on eating them. Camelot changed that! I came here on a Saturday at 11:30 AM. It wasn't full, yet, but there were 3 groups of people already eating inside. When you walk in, make sure you know what you want, especially if you're going to dine in. You HAVE to order first before you take a seat (there's a sign about this as well). I ordered the fish and chips for dine in. They make every order fresh so there is a lengthy wait. On top of that, I noticed that they had A LOT of to-go orders, which I think adds to the lengthy wait. It's worth it though, I promise! The host drops my food off and warned me that it was hot. She also dropped off salt, ketchup, and malt vinegar. I'm stubborn and don't listen, tried to take a bite and I burned myself...lol. I took a bite of a chip and they're not crispy or soft...they're kind of a perfect combination of both. Not super salty or greasy which is a plus for me. The fish finally cooled down a bit and I took I bite. I'm used to super greasy fish but THESE were built different. Not greasy, oily, salty, or soggy. The breading was sooooo airy and melts in your mouth. Sometimes I peel off the breading when I've had enough of the grease and just eat the fish. But this batch of fish....I didn't have to do that AT ALL. The fish itself was white and flaky. I also really liked their tarter sauce. It was so thick and creamy (like a buttermilk sauce) and elevated my fish and chips experience. My eyes were bigger than my stomach and I could barely finish my meal. Be sure to come here on an empty stomach! Everything was excellent. The service, food, host, and ambiance. Shout out to the host though...she was serving, bussing, running the register, getting to go orders ready, all while having a great attitude. I hope you get paid enough Miss Ma'am!!! read more

"I found a love for me Oh darling, just dive right in and follow my lead Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet Oh, I never knew you were the someone waiting for me..." - Ed Sheeran Disclaimer: I'm a tad tipsy after a pour of "fruitier" brew and another or three to celebrate my birthday and hey I'm just grateful for surviving the Black Plague of last year. Ignore if I ramble, or if I sound a tad Ed Sheeran. Hey, it's a British thing lol... Happy Birthday to me;) Prayers to all! Cheers to the Queen! The story of Camelot and the Knights of the Round Table has resonated in my heart since well... my adolescent years collecting pewter figurines lol. Of course Guinevere 'twas always my love interest. Lancelot of Arthurian Legend needed Lady Guinevere to make life more scandalous and delicious, y'know. Where am I going with this? Well for starters how could I, Sir Eric Robert, skip on an English Pub named Camelot! Inconceivable! So on my birthday weekend, I'm turning 28 again, well in Medieval years, lol, I decide to drop by Camelot. Camelot Fish & Chips is located in the fishing town of Pacifica. A historic town that goes back to the Victorian era and a town known for small eateries, antique shops, and beer! Yes, beer! In fact, several breweries are located here. However, I, Sir Eric Robert, came to Pacifica for the Fish & Chips of Camelot. You see, Camelot's Fish & Chips have been rated at or near the top in the area for 52 years! Don't you just love small pubs and restaurants that seem to have been around forever? And extra love when they are recognized as the best for what they do. Camelot Fish & Chips is the "perfect" (sorry Ed lol) example of doing it right! A small pub that has been around for 52 years and rated with the best Fish & Chips in the Bay. Ok, enough talk! I notice a line of take-out as I arrive. I also notice take-out is the only option at the moment. Alas! The Black Plague of last year even touching the lives and businesses in small town America. And as much I wanted to sit and enjoy this wonderful English-inspired pub, with eclectic decor that reminded me of those I visited in London, I was ok with take-out. Lady C. was there to greet me in her beanie and a hint of British accent. A moderne Guinevere! Cute as an English button she takes me order... I order a full order of Fish & Chips (currently about $15) and ask Lady C. if I could order a beer for my birthday. She kindly said of course and even suggested a few. Guinness was at the top however I drank enough of it while in the UK, so I agree on the "fruitier one" instead as she described it. Sorry forgot what she served! But how could I resist! She politely explained that because I was a walk-in that me order will be maybe 15 minutes because the phone orders called before me. Yes, even with me Sir Lancelot chin and charm I could not seduce Lady C. to push me ahead of the commoners. Oh well. I humbly accept the 15 minutes wait:P And before you know it Lady C. (Yes, that's really her name lol) calls out that me order 'twas ready. Packed neatly in a shopping bag with "fruitier beer" in take-out container. I notice the cliffs a street away and head on over... oh my it reminded me of the White Cliffs of Dover! I find a nice bench overlooking the ocean and dig in. Verdict? I'm in England! Oh my! Oh my! The most fantastic Fish & Chips since me glorious day's in London. The fish lightly battered with a golden crisp. The interior moist and fresh. A touch of vinegar made it "perfect" (sorry Ed lol). The chips large and generous and a meal in itself. It's served with little seasoning nothing ketchup can't fix. Truly a happy ending;) All in all, I highly recommend Camelot Fish & Chips in Pacifica. It's only take-out for now but know the White Cliffs of Dover is just around the bend. Lady C. was not only gracious but "perfect" as "perfect" can be! A real looker! "Now I know I have met an angel in person... And she looks perfect... I don't deserve this... You look perfect tonight..." Cheers! read more

Camelot Fish & Chips - Fish, mushrooms chicken - Seafood Near Me - Pacifica, California

This place has all of the makings to be absolutely perfect! Unfortunately it fell short for us. We ordered the fish and chips (not cheap btw) and took it to go since they don't have outside seating and my friend had her dog with us. The fish portions were large and thick cut. The batter was completely covered and very crispy. The fries were cut and cooked to perfection. None of it had any flavor though!! It was the weirdest thing. I even doused mine in vinegar and still, it just wasn't great. Not even with ketchup. It desperately needed salt but because we got it to-go, it wasn't included with the rest of the order. If I come back here, it'll definitely be to sit there and maybe even have a beer. The pub seemed pretty clean and the customer service was very friendly. read more

I might be bias because my family has been coming here for generations BUT you won't ever get thick pieces of fish like you do here! The chicken strips were good from what my niece says and the sweet potato fries were just as tasty. French fries are always fresh and thick cut. This was my first time eating inside, I recommend eating it there because fish gets soggy and surprisingly the customer service is amazing! 10/10 would recommend read more

You won't have to cast your reel in order to have amazing fish and chips... Camelot Fish and chips is a must try. This quaint eatery will make you feel like you are in jolly old England enjoying the local pub and food. Parking isn't too bad it may take you a moment or two to find a place to park. Once you get inside seating is a little crazy, and it's hard to know how to figure out the system if you've never been there before. Diners Tip: when you're up at the counter ordering, make sure to tell them how many people are in your party. They will make sure that you have a place to sit, I will put your name on a list. They truly dislike people cutting in line so to speak and grabbing a table prior to ordering food. The fish and chips is offered several ways. You can grab just the fish and chips, fish and shrimp, fish and oysters, fish and a whole bunch of other offerings. The portions are super generous, and tasty doesn't even come close. The fish is so incredibly fresh, and I love the fact that the batter was crisp and not soggy, and it did not have that greasy aftertaste. Truly delicious. We ordered both onion rings and fries and both of them were delicious. The onion rings just like the fish were light and crispy and not greasy. I could've eaten just the onion rings and been happy they were so good. The fries were the same. Light, crispy, and lightly seasoned. I love the atmosphere, the people, and just the whole experience made me miss traveling through England. The walls are adorned with English novelty items, that will keep your eyes wandering while you enjoy your meal. It's truly a great experience all the way around. Prices are definitely reasonable, portions generous, and the food as I said, is absolutely delicious. read more

The minuses: VERY BLAND, tasteless, chips /fries soggy and oil laden, clam strips OVER COOKED (hard). Food looked better than it tasted :^( The pluses: does remind me of an English pub, albeit tiny.

Way too expensive for such mid quality food. Shrimp are small, fries at mid at best, cod was OK.

*Pre-pandemic review* 51 years in business and they must be doing something right. Prior to eating here last year, we've probably been here about a dozen or so times over the years. We've always enjoyed their food and the ambiance of the place is legit. Walking inside is like teleporting to a coast side town somewhere in the British isles. You really feel like you've traveled across the pond. It's been a while since we've dined here and going back brought back so many fond memories. My friend introduced me to this place back in high school in the late 80's, and it's good to know not much has changed. But coming back here felt like it was new again, and I got that tingling sensation in my head. Wifey and I were hungry so we both got The Camelot ($17.95). It comes with 1 fish (+ chips of course), 3 shrimps, 3 scallops and 3 oysters. She got a cup of lemonade to wash it down and I got a glass of English Ale to pair it with these deep fried British grub. If you come here looking to eat healthy, then by jolly please leave cause this ain't the place for you. Quit complainin' that they don't have any vegetarian options and don't let the door hit you in the behind. The food has been consistent and the ingredients are fresh. They let the ingredients stand for themselves and it's not over-seasoned. I know some people may want it saltier, but you can always season your food to your preference. That's what the condiments are there for, and simply ask. The fish has a clean taste and you can always add a dash of malt vinegar to give it that extra kick. You can enjoy the rest as is or dunk it in some tartar sauce or cocktail sauce. That's part of the experience and fun of eating here. You're gonna feel heavy after, especially if you finish all the chips, but we don't come here for that since it's the deep fried seafood that we want. Staff is always friendly, nice and attentive so that's always a plus. Note: They are currently open during this lockdown for pick-up. Just order online. read more
