I asked about the different types of fish they had, and the lady at the counter helped me decide. She was super friendly, and the food came out very quick and very fresh. This chunk of fish was super tasty. I enjoy malt vinegar rather than tartar sauce, and the crispy fried batter soaked it right up. The chips were typical fries and also tasty with ketchup or vinegar. They offered gravy, but I declined. I'll return to this place the next time I'm in Peterborough.

Wow! What a nice surprise...went to Long Island Fish & Chips with my parents who live very close to…read morethe restaurant. It has been totally renovated over Christmas 2009 and now looks and feels like you're sitting in your own living/dining room. We all had delicious, fresh, perfectly-cooked halibut with chips. The batter on the fish is a great complement...not too thick so as to hide the flavour and freshness of the fish. The chips were homemade, hot, and perfectly cooked. Our server was very friendly and cheerful and provided just the right amount of attention. We'll definitely be back and I've already recommended Long Island to some friends who live nearby.

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.

My husband, toddler and I got the King's Platter which was perfect - two pieces of halibut, three shrimps and 3 scallops with a huge amount of fries, coleslaw, with what I assume was house made tartar sauce and seafood sauce.

It all tasted fresh and delicious and "light" considering it was deep fried. The batter had good crunch. We loved all of it...our toddler loved the fries and the decor, especially the murals.
