We were directed to this food truck when we checked into our hotel in Tobermory. It was a great find! The fish was fresh, the breading was tasty and the homemade tartar sauce was awesome. The chips were amazing as well. If this was down the road from my home, I'm sure I'd be there every week. Just a note, it is not hard miss. If headed towards Tobermory, it will be on your right shortly before you get to any of the entrances to Bruce Peninsula National Park. If headed from town, you will pass both the Cypress Lake entrances and the one just south of there (don't remember the name). Look for the Lonewolf Drive Thru sign Fish is served from around 11:30 with the last order taken at 7:30. read more

Chip Wagon - Chip Wagon - Fish & Chips Near Me - Tobermory, Ontario

See all

I came here based on all the good reviews on Yelp. It's a cute little chip wagon (now a renovated trailer) We ordered a large fry and a large poutine just as travel food. It took 30 minutes for them to call our number. Granted, they were pretty busy... But 30 minutes for 2 orders of fries is a little crazy. My fries were good (although not 30 minutes good) but could have been a little warmer. The person I was with said their poutine was good. I don't eat meat so this review is based solely on the fries and service. I'd still recommend checking it out for yourself! OH and the address here on Yelp didn't take us to the chip wagon. We had to continue driving until we saw it on the left hand side (leaving tobermory) which was about 7km. read more

Chip Wagon - Large fry. Huge portion - Fish & Chips Near Me - Tobermory, Ontario

If you're visiting Tobermory, you must stop by the Chip Wagon (now trailer) for some fish and chips, as well as the smoked fish next door. Keep in mind, the Chip Wagon is located on 5992 Highway 6, just east of Emmett Lake Road (don't go by the map marker on Yelp). The ladies at the front were very welcoming and friendly. Aside from the seats on the 'deck', there are several picnic tables behind the trailer, so you can enjoy your delicious fish under the sun. Instead of cod or halibut, you have the choice between trout and whitefish. Or simply try both! Fresh fish, skin on, lightly battered, and deep-fried to perfection. I personally enjoyed the trout more because I liked the firmer texture, but most of my family preferred the whitefish. We ordered one too many dinners as the portions were generous. (You can order 'fish only'.) The tartar sauce was delicious and the fries were decent. I have tried the fish and chips in Tobermory, but this place is way better! From now on, I will make sure to stop by and eat fish and chips here every time I visit Tobermory. (If you're lucky, you may befriend a few squirrels that run around the area looking for food, or even spot one sleeping in one of the trees.) read more

Chip Wagon - Fish & Chips Near Me - Tobermory, Ontario

The positives: nice new building with brand new picnic tables and a clean outhouse with soap, water, and paper towels. That deserves and extra star given that the location is sort of like a truck stop along Highway 6. The negatives: the fried whitefish. I rarely turn away food but 2 bites in and I was done with it. The fish was overcooked, smelled fishy (not fresh), and had a large amount of skin in it. The batter was dark and greasy, typically a result of not changing the cooking oil. Overall some of the worst fried fish I can recall having. By comparison we had just had some really good fried halibut in Toronto which is not even a local whitefish. The establishment is also so confusing. Apparently they've had various names and was previously a food truck called Chip Wagon, but the signs along the road and on the building simply state "Smoked Fish - Fish N Chips". Yet the menu posted next to the order window is entitled "Lone Wolf Fish + Chips". There is a building next door called "Lone Wolf Drive Thru" that has to-go items like coffee but also smoked fish sometimes. Yet all the signs along Hwy 6 have the Lone Wolf name covered up by the new generic Fish N Chips signage. Their marketing dept needs an overhaul. Overall a difficult to find, confusing place with greasy, overcooked, smelly fish. read more

This place is amazing. Best fish and chips I have ever had in my short time here on this earth(but I have Catholic roots so fish fry Friday's are a staple in spring). Came here after reading already good reviews on Yelp and it was very close to our campsite. Scott and I both had the white fish dinner. He had fries, I had poutine. The fish was crisp and made to order, we could see through the window as they were battering our individual fish and putting them in the fryer. The fries were crisp and seasoned perfectly, not too salty. And the poutine could've used a little less gravy but I ate them all and was very satisfied before hiking two miles into camp. read more

Hands down the best fish and chips I have ever had! We had one order of fish and chips, shared between the two of us. It cost $11 and the portion was huge. We both had eaten lunch already and were about to head out of Tobermory, but we just had to try this place out because of all the great reviews we saw on other websites! The fish was flaky, fresh and very moist with a crispy, light batter! The fries were thick-cut and just total golden-brown awesomeness! I'm definitely coming back when I go camping in Bruce Peninsula National Park again! read more

We stopped in based on all the 5 star ratings on Yelp and were not disappointed. This was the freshest fish I think I have ever had. Additionally, it had the lightest and tastiest batter of any fish and chips I've tried. Fantastic! The fries were great, the portions huge and the tarter sauce phenomenal. After we finished, Alanna came out to talk to us and mentioned the fish tasted so fresh because she was on the boat catching it that morning. Now that's fresh. Stop in, and you won't be disappointed too. read more

Chip Wagon - a group of people standing in front of a food truck - Fish & Chips Near Me - Tobermory, Ontario

Having lived in England for some time, I can honestly say this is the best fish and chips in the world. It doesn't quite look like a chip wagon anymore, as they've upgraded to a more permanent walk up hut, but they still serve up the warm welcome and amazing food folks have come to expect here. We ate there Friday evening and, being from the States, had some trouble using our card there. We assumed we'd just try again tomorrow after hitting an ATM, but the cashier told us to "just bring your money by another time." So nice. Onto the fish. Lake trout, lightly battered in some incredible batter. The fish was very fresh, which seems to be the key to this delicious food. This is the one place you should definitely eat at when visiting BPNP or Tobermory. read more

Some of the best whitefish I've had in a while, and very reasonably priced. Batter was light and crisp, fish was moist and flaky. The fries were also very well done and didn't get too waterlogged even with the addition of malt vinegar. The coleslaw on the side had a very unique vinegar dressing that I prefer to the standard mayo. Fast service and good food! read more

The fish and chips were the best !! Hamburgers frozen from a package, skip them, but the fish was amazing!!

You would never guess it from the looks of this trailer, but this was some seriously good fish and chips. Pretty simple, limited choice, but not only was the fish fantastic and the portion large, the chips were also fantastic! There were three of us and we got two orders of the fish and chips and an additional serving of fish. I would say we only needed one order of the fish and chips and two additional servings of fish, given the generous portion of chips. The tartare sauce is also fantastic, however, the coleslaw was not great. Would definitely come again! read more

The fish was fresh and crispy, I totally recommend you visit this place. Although the the fries weren't as good. The workers there are friendly. read more
