Great food. Cooked perfectly. Lovely presentation as always. A gem of a place. Never lets you down. Highly recommended. read more

I've been to this family owned restaurant several times over the years and the quality has never wavered. It's one of those spots that you read about and then hear about through word of mouth. So you know it's good. Though everything we ordered was fried, it didn't feel heavy, the batter was light and crispy, and the fish nice and juicy. Chips? Perfectly fried. Didn't snap a pic, but definitely get the onion rings, they're huge! Because I was with a larger group, we ordered 2 desserts to share - both enjoyed by the group. On Fridays and Saturdays they don't seat you until your whole group is present, so plan ahead if you're coming with more people. The staff was attentive, giving the right amount of attention while the dining room was filled throughout the time we were there. Delicious meal and an awesome experience with great company. read more

I remember when the Calamari was bigger many years ago. Hahaha. But it was still delicious. The restaurant is cute with a lot of wood finishes. It kind of reminds me of a boat. I don't know if that was intentional but I got boat vibes. I got the Calamari and Chips. Fried food. You can't go wrong. The service was great. They gave me too much water lol but it was nice. read more

Olde Yorke - Calamari & Chips - Seafood Near Me - East York, Ontario

The ambiance is quite nice - you can sit on the deck and enjoy the quite street, it's similar to a balcony in a pub. Seating a bit limited but there are parks nearby. The service is quite quick, it took 15 mins for our order of two mains to be ready. Food is the main draw though, the batter is very light and doesn't take away the flavour of the fish away. The fish is so light and flakey and the tartar was amazing and not overpowering either. We got the cod burger and the halibut and they were incredible. Highly recommend the chips too, actual potato taste and not 100% oily batter read more

Been coming here for years, always a great experience. Had a family birthday dinner here recently - after not having visited for about 7~8 years - and was pleased to find Olde Yorke is maintaining their high standards. We were a multi-generational group consisting of my wife and I, our young son, and an elderly aunt, and all of us felt welcome and well served. The food was as good as I remembered, the halibut and chips I had craved all week did not disappoint. read more

Olde Yorke - Halibut and chips - Seafood Near Me - East York, Ontario

Olde Yorke Fish & Chips Parking: Extremely difficult, I arrived at their parking lot before the restaurant open. Atmosphere: Old school pub interior from the 60's and space between each table are reasonable. Service: Family style restaurant welcoming service. Presentation: Most authentic and appetizing presented Fish and Chip I had in the GTA. Comparable to the ones I had in England countryside (please refer to my photos). Taste: CHOWDER Homemade: Good balance of clam and seafood flavour (not too strong or mild). Very smooth and creamy traditional English chowder. HADDOCK & CHIPS: Light thin crispy on the outside and moist fish filet inside. It is not overcook nor too salty. I really like the salad option instead of fries. HOMEMADE APPLE CRISP served with ice cream: Not too sweet and I really like the cold / hot feeling. Perfect dessert to end this meal. Overall: The best Fish and Chip I had in the GTA, period. read more

We had the clam chowder and fried calamari appetizer followed by the mixed fried seafood that included a big piece of haddock, scallops, and shrimp. It comes with cole slaw and french fries. The food was as advertised. The restaurant was already full by 5 pm on a Friday evening. We were lucky to have a table. Prices are reasonable, which may explain how busy the restaurant was. Most people ordered the fish and chips with a huge fillet. Our server, Anne, was attentive and responsive. read more

Is it safe to say this is the best fish and chips in Toronto? It's definitely better than the ones back in Bay Area. I did get a bit of that UK vibes here. Food was pretty good although I'd prefer a bit lighter batter. Tried their halibut and chips this time. I love how meaty it was. The flavors was a lot better than the cod too in my option. Highly recommend this spot! The staff was also very friendly and attentive. read more

OMG!!! At first I was going to do just a check in here But This visit deserves a full 5 star review. First the service was awesome. But, mainly the fisherman's platter with a huge piece of haddock and 3 shrimp and 3 scallops was beyond fantastic!!! I had dined in here instead of getting my fish and chips fix as a takeout order. So, maybe that is why....... The food was awesome. The fries and all the seafood was hot and crispy as it should be. The scallops and shrimp were nice and tender and had a sweet taste to them and they were obviously fresh. The fish (haddock) was amazing even though I always recommend halibut. This haddock lived up to the fish and chips brand. I can't say enough, food, service and the Olde York has done it again. Humongous 5 stars again. read more

Olde Yorke - Fisherman's platter with Haddock, 3 scallops, 3 shrimp. Amazingly crispy and fresh. - Seafood Near Me - East York, Ontario

Hands-down the best fish & chips in Toronto. The batter is crispy and golden without being too heavy on the breading. The fish is flakey and soft inside. We ordered at the take out window and were given packaged tartar sauce, ketchup, salt/pepper. Make sure to opt in for the salt as the fries do not come pre-seasoned. Although the price comes at $20 a portion for fish & chips, the piece of fish is quite large and the thick pub-style fries were great. read more

I've been here a few times over the years and the haddock and chips this visit was amazing! Crispy, tasty batter and the fish was nice size. The onion rings were fantastic! They were so huge and super crispy! Only disappointment was the tartar sauce which tasted strange and served in these super tiny containers. It's difficult to describe but the taste and texture didn't compliment the fish. I'm told it's made in-house but it tasted more like those little takeout packets. Tartar sauce is important to me so l was surprised this was a let down. Services was good and fast but our waitress screwed up someone's order that affected mine and almost handed me a plate with just the haddock fish without fries etc. Stood my ground and asked for full plate which made me happy. See photo! Ambiance was warm and cozy though it was crowded on a Saturday and a bit of a wait at the entrance. We were expecting a lunchtime crowd anyways. Definitely one of the best traditional British fish n chips places in Toronto! read more

We love fish and chips especially my kid. Came here based on Yelp reco's and really enjoyed their halibut and haddock fish. They give you a large single piece with hand cut home made french fries that are fried to perfection-crispy on the outside with a golden color. Catsup is home made as well. Cole slaw was a little on the sweeter side. In California, we don't usually have fried halibut so this was a little different as well as the haddock. Both were firm and flaky and the batter was perfectly seasoned and crispy using their own family recipe. Service was excellent with a very attentive staff. Ambiance was English pub style with tables surrounding the bar. I'd come back next time I'm visiting Toronto. read more

Olde Yorke - Menu - Seafood Near Me - East York, Ontario

Best fish and chips in the city. Halibut seems to be the go to fish here and worth paying a bit extra for but the light and flakey cod was excellent as well. Hand-cut fries, sorry, chips are as good as expected. Old time British decor adds to the experience. Service is as friendly as can be. Prices are reasonable. No reservations so be prepared to wait a bit if coming on a busy Friday night. Definitely worth the wait. read more

Service was good. Halibut was very dry on the inside no matter how much tartar sauce was applied. Price for a fountain soft drink (without a refill) is outrageous. Ambiance wss pleasant. But, will not be seeing them again. read more

Been in Leaside a very long time. Always busy and for a reason. I used to live close and this place was the only place to go for fish and chips. Sadly, I moved a few years ago and now only get to visit occasionally. Rumour has it that if the stones are in town one of them drops over for pick up. read more

This is one of a select few places where you get traditional British fish & chips . The fish batter is light and crispy , fries are hand cut and well made , tasty coleslaw and tartar sauce ( although that is away from traditional ! ). The restaurant has 2 sections - the first room has the bar as well as booths and then there is the Solarium. Definitely a must visit for great fish & chips with welcoming, professional and friendly service. There is also a full bar and excellent selection of beers. read more

I waited 6 years to go back here and have their halibut fish and chips. I am from California and we don't have such amazing fish and chips there . At least I haven't come across. This is a little cozy place and has its own typical customers. The fish was super fresh and flaky . The batter was just as crunchy and onion rings were huge like I never had before. I will be patiently waiting for my next visit to Toronto to go here again ! Cheers read more

I was invited for lunch by a friend that I used to work with years ago. He is one of the nicest guys I've met and very generous. He suggested we go to Olde Yorke for fish and chips. I had heard about this place but have never been. We had their Halibut & Chips, with a side of Mushy Peas, a British tradition. The fish was perfectly cooked and was delicious! The Mushy Peas were also quite good. This was a good meal! Dessert was a deep fried Mars bar with ice cream. Yummy! This family owned restaurant is located in the Leaside neighbourhood, near Bayview and Eglinton. The decor is a reflection of a British Pub, with the owners having roots in England, going back generations. It works! If you like Fish & Chips, check out this place! Thank you for lunch, Tony! read more

This place is very busy. They have a separate take out entrance. I came here for dinner. Service was very quick and friendly. It was a bit difficult to call in for take out, took me about 4 tries before getting a hold of someone. The food was very fresh when I picked up. I got the cod and chips, amount of food was good. The fish was fried perfectly, and so crispy. It smelled so good when I picked it up. The space was small for take out, 2 cashiers, but they will deliver your order outside if you happen to have to stand outside while waiting for your order. I will definitely come back here, best fish and chips I had so far. read more

Still our fave Fish and chips location. Really hard to beat. We go for the traditional (cod and chips). If you go on Monday to Wednesday, they have a special where you can get a pint with a meal for +$5. This place is always busy and the food speaks for itself. If you want you can add on Mushy Peas. They also have deep fried Mars Bars. read more

Olde Yorke - Cod and chips with coleslaw - Seafood Near Me - East York, Ontario

I heard a lot of raving reviews for this fish and chips place and decide to ask my cousin to take me. We came in and stood for a good 2-3 mins before someone came and acknowledged us and led us to a table. They were quite busy so I'm not judging here. Boy the food is Amazing. I personally don't normally crave fish and chips but I've just heard so much that I had to try. I usually can't finish my meals but I finished the entire dish. It was that good. I ordered halibut and chips with a side of onion rings to share. when the onion rings came out I couldn't believe the size of them, they were HUGE! Everything was fried to perfection, fries to fish to onion rings were all super tasty and crispy. This is by far the best fish and chips place I've ever eaten at in Toronto. Highly recommended and I'll definitely be back. read more

This is my go-to place for fish and chips and onion rings. Service always courteous and efficient; you never see a staff just standing around doing nothing staring at space. The restaurant is usually packed with senior citizens so that's a good sign according to my mom who is also a senior citizen. The decor is bright and homey. I like their haddock. The batter is puffy, crispy and seasoned perfectly just like their onion rings. read more

Gotta say, the best fish and chips in town!! I've been following them for a while on Instagram and when I had the chance to try it they decided to temporarily close for the holidays so I was super sad! Now that they've opened again I made sure to go. I knew this place was busy so I called to order, I ordered calamari and the haddock and chips. The calamari was crispy, fried to golden brown, delicious and addictive. The haddock and chips came with one piece of battered fish, fried golden brown and it was huge! The fries were freshly cut, golden brown, crispy and overall everything tasted delicious. The menu is small and simple, they offer family combos, cod & chips, halibut & chips, salads, desserts. Apparently their key lime pie is to die for? Haven't tried it yet but definitely will be the next time I visit. Just wish that their take out fish and chips came with a lemon slice and coleslaw! read more

Had take out of 2 halibut and chips, but at over $50 including tax, I can't justify ever returning given the price.

I ordered the halibut and chips which was a few more dollars more expensive and it sooo much better compared to the cod (the one my friend ordered). The calamari was crispy and chewy, super delicious. Service was attentive and nice! The vibe was very English and it was fitting. read more

Yum Tasty fish and chips Different choices of fish to choose from Halibut, for, etc But seems smaller amounts of food than it used to be. Note meals don't come with a small side of coleslaw unless you order the family meal. We haven't dined in, only taken out Comes with malt vinegar, tartar sauce, and ketchup read more

No one beats the service or halibut and fries. Fried clams are also excellent. If you want to switch it up halibut with their Greek salad is also a great choice. Prices are comparable. read more

Best fish and chips in the city. It's no wonder why this place is so popular! The fish is amazing, my personal favorite is cod because it's so fluffy, but the halibut and haddock have more flavor. The fries are also delicious. The coleslaw portions are pretty big, we always overestimate ourselves and order way too much. For me and my partner, we usually order 1 fish and chips and 1 fish on its own, with coleslaw on the side. read more

Possibly the best fish and chips I've ever had in Toronto, if not ever. This place tops all of the best fish and chips lists and I finally see why. The interior was nicely decorated with ample seating, with one more pub-like area and another enclosed patio that was more airy. We got both the haddock and chips and cod and chips, I personally prefer the tenderness of the cod but both versions were delicious, the batter was nice and crispy but not too thick nor greasy, felt like the perfect balance between a crisp light exterior and the tenderness of the fish. The hand-cut chips and housemade tartar sauce were also highlights. They get quite busy, so service was a bit slow, but all in all a great experience. Would recommend coming outside of peak meal hours if you want to avoid a long wait. read more

Steamwhistle brewery's slogan is "Do one thing really really well." It's a good slogan but I don't like IPA so, meh. That slogan resonates more for me when it comes to fish and chips at The Olde Yorke. They do that really really well and it is what they are known for. I'm sure they have other items on their menu but um, why even have a menu? It's like going to the gas station and browsing for maple syrup. But I digress. Fish is flash fried at the right temperature to avoid greasiness, cultivate crispness, and produce yummyness. The chips are cut British style, chunky and stout, like a London cab driver. What's more, the service matches their unfathomable volume. You'd think no one in Toronto eats anything but fish and chips on a Friday. Lineups out the door but the kitchen churns the meals out and the army of staff (how do they hire so many people in today's labour market anyway?), serves it up at the speed of, well, fish. There's a well designed setup for takeout that prevents congestion between the eat-in restaurant and the myriad take-out customers. Best fish & chips in Toronto? You bet ye olde chitty chitty bang bang they are! read more

One of the best in town! Their onion ring is underrated, make sure to Try it. Always a cod if you like flaky and light texture Dine in on the weekdays, they have great value for beer. read more

First-time doing takeout at the restaurant. Ordered for a specific time (6:00 PM) about 45 minutes prior to pickup. No problem. The restaurant employee (Mia) was very helpful as one of the orders had to do with a gluten-free main course. While grilled Halibut wasn't on the online menu, it wasn't a problem. The battered Halibut and grilled Halibut were excellent. The daily soup, beef vegetable was really comforting. The fries were pretty good too. This place reminded me of our family trips to Cape Cod. A local restaurant that is enjoyed by locals and served by many of the local teenagers. read more

Nice server and fish is done very well. We had the haddock and halibut and both were perfectly done. Light, flaky and crispy. The clam chowder was really good too - not overly salty and good consistency. Coleslaw was nice and crisp too. The only one thing they could've done better was the chips beings bit overdone. Otherwise I would've given a 5 star instead of 4.5 (couldn't do 1/2 stars). I would come back again. read more

So excited to come here after almost 3 years away. Didn't disappoint - still the best fish and chips in town. Clam chowder was amazing - creamy without being heavy. Mains: halibut and chips Single piece of Haddock Onion rings Mushy peas We were confused when the waiter ask if we wanted tartar sauce. I just thought it would be a given. And then the tartar sauce she bought was so tiny. ??? Well that's because the fish is so good you barely need a dap of it. Go figure! Post COVID we seem to be so much pickier when dining out and this was just so truly satisfying . What topped it off was the key lime pie. I don't usually have key lime pie in Canada as I always reserve that for when I go to Florida. But I didn't feel like their traditional Apple Crisp so the Jacqueline, our waiter, suggested we give it a try. So glad we did. Perfect way to finish the meal and a nice Saturday track across town! Old Yorke - thank you for being there!!!! read more
