We stopped in to grab a quick bite by the entrance to the nearby lock and Captain George's was everything we love about a good fish and chips place. Super friendly server greeted us and took our order and she was considerate enough to suggest that we sit at a different table if we didn't want to be right underneath the vent as it was a rather cool day. We opted for their daily special of buy 1 and get the 2nd one half off deal and got 2 cod and chips dinner. The fish was fried very well in a crispy and pleasant (not greasy) batter. The chips were way too much for us to finish, and the accompanying tartar sauce and coleslaw were both tasty. The service was efficient and sincere and really made the whole dining experience a total pleasure. read more

With a longer menu than other Captain George franchises, plus indoor and outdoor seating and a riverside view, this is an excellent choice for families, friends, and couples! The portions are huge and very shareable, and the staff are super friendly. A total winner! read more

Been to several Capt George's and this one is by far the best location. Great food at reasonable prices with large portions. Restaurant is clean, washrooms are clean, wait staff are pleasant and quick. This is a busy restaurant for a good reason. Seafood prices like everything else have been going up in cost, but the food here is always fresh and well prepared. This is one of the best seafood restaurants in the area. I'll be coming back. read more

The halibut pieces were a good size with thick fillets. Pieces were not greasy Fries were just okay- 2/5 Price is average read more

Decent little dive if you like fries sea food. Service was acceptable. Side salad was huge. Rest rooms were clean. I had fried haddock with fries. Fries were a bit over cooked and I have had bigger portions of haddock with a fish fry, but the fish was good. No coleslaw? Maybe that's only a thing in the USA and I was visiting Canada. I'd eat there again. read more

Captain George's Fish and Chips - Super crispy fish n chips - Fish & Chips Near Me - Trenton, Ontario

We've been order here for the last 6 months. Same order 2 haddock with chips 26.00. We recently drop the chips from our order cost 22.58. Tonight for some reason the price jumped to 29.98. The gentleman kept pointing at the price board saying always been that price. Watch out for unexplained price changes. Fish still good. read more

Came on easter friday. I get it that its busy. Ordered at 11 am for a 6pm slot. Got there at 6 and watched him call back a customer who just left and say you pay first. And saw him tell the waitress bes not making the food if be doesnt pay first. On easter friday? Lots of people waiting for that food if he didnt want it.Then i get told My order is double what i was told on phone. I had to switch to pollock. Ive never heard of pollock. But its on the new menu. I'm pretty sure the owner wanted everyone to pay up front and was screwing up the waitresses and staff by doing that. read more

I've given this place many many chances because I love fish and chips. One piece fish and chips took 45 mins to make then when I received it, it was room temp and soggy. The other times it took almost as long to get the food and I think my meal was hot once out of all the times I've been. The place is generally dingy and unkept. read more

The Trenton Captain George 's has friendly service, great food, great portions and decent prices. This is a good overall restaurant for both lunch and dinner if you're in the Quinte area. The fish is better than other locations because it is received from a different supplier. Chicken souvlaki sandwich with large greek salad excellent. Banquet burger excellent. Haddock dinner as well. read more

Not the cleanest place. Absolutely horrible service. Gone there a couple times and they were closed during what the sign says are open hours. Long wait with bad service for mediocre Food in a not so clean setting. No thanks Staff blames me I did not remind them we were there lol. Place is a joke go to a good restaurant like boathouse or tomasos read more

Food was made fresh to order and tasty. Ate the haddock fish and chips meal for two with salad. Very pleased. Nice shady patio overlooking the waterfront (with a road between the restaurant and water). Ample parking. Baby friendly - room for stroller and they have high chairs. Staff was lovely and attentive. read more

First of all, it was packed in here and the seats are not very big. We sit down and order our food and when I tell you it took a half hour I mean it for real took half an hour. 3 people who came in AFTER us got their food way before us. Isn't it a thing to serve the customers who have been there and ordered first? It's not like we ordered something extravagant. Chicken fingers and two pieces of fish. The service was kind of ridiculous. I watched as they circled around us to the other tables asking them if they needed anything meanwhile they had come up to us once asking if we needed a refill like 5 minutes after we got our drinks. Possibly because we were younger they didn't think that our service was as important. Ridiculous, don't even waste your time. Go somewhere they'll serve you better food within 15 to 20 minutes and don't bother going here. read more

Checked out this restaurant while in town and the food was amazing. Definitely will eat here again if I'm ever in town.

The fish was very good but the chips were a bit oily. Had a drink that came in a fish bowl but couldn't taste any alcohol in it. It just tasted like Blue Kool-aid. Which was disappointing. read more

Every time you go it's very slow service, even when there's hardly anyone in the restaurant. If you order take out check your order! They gave me a different wrap and by the time I got home they were closed. I called to have an order ready for 7:45, 15 minutes before they close and they said I couldn't as that would be too late. It was 7:05 and they are suppose to be open until 8, it was more than enough time to cook and I would've been gone before they would be closed. After this, we dined in, well we tried! Over 30 minutes and no waitress to take our order, she did take our drink order, but then decided she would rather stand around and talk. When I tried to say something they attacked me, saying I was the problem and I should've got up and did her job. I gave them a second chance, still the same. I called in my order, they said 20 minutes for a single order of 2 piece halibut and fries. They took 30 minutes causing me to be late and my hubby to barely have enough time to eat lunch. I'm done, I've given many chances and I'm still the problem. read more

Food was good, but service was slow once, then unbelievably slow the second visit. Took an hour and a half for four pieces of fish.

Captain George's is a franchise, and the operators are pretty much not bothered by head office. The fish & chips are the best I've ever had, and I've eaten more than my share of f&c, but I'm crazy about that meal. In this particular place, they are not particular at all in regard to cleanliness: I've seen more than one waitress exit the washroom & go directly to handling food, silverware, preparing the take-out boxes, etc. The cleanup guy cleans up the dirty tableware, then goes on to handle take-out food, packing lemon wedges, etc. I've stopped going there. read more

My husband and I went to Georges Fish and Chips in Trenton last night and were very disappointed, took us 70 minutes to get our meal, people were coming in and getting served before us, why we waited as my patience is usually short I don't know, they were a little short staffed but for the waitress to visit and have a family reunion with her aunt and uncle was not called for, the Halibut is getting smaller and the tarter sauce was watered down it was like the thickness of syrup, my days at Trenton Fish and Chips are done, back to Brighton or Cobourg, Trenton is crappy........ read more

What a wonderful quaint restaurant. Enjoyed delicious fish and chips on a beautiful evening on the deck. Food was fabulous,prices reasonable and our server Tammy was terrific! Recommend to anyone who enjoys a good fish and chips! read more

Slow service, about an hour waiting for three of us and three other people in the restraint . Don't forget the fries were burnt.

Excellent fish and chips. I also tried the cheese burger and it was fantastic as well. No complaints.

Don't go hungry. Service is slow and mediocre at best. Took 40 minutes for 3 pieces of soggy fish and cold fries for take out. Should be called Captain Take Your Money Than Keep Your Fish and Chips. read more

Solid fish and chips for Ontario. Good portion sizes. Only disappointment is that they use tail pieces to make their fish and chips.

Once is enough, fish batter was soggy and service was slow and sloppy, asked for napkins twice and never got them, my wife got them herself, asked for more water and never received it. Would never go back. Poor food and service. Wonder what it would be like if they were busy. read more
