Very nice day and the people running the food truck had it all down path. While waited in line we got to see the food prep and the cod was amazing nice portions with 3 fillets standard. This was a first for us; the truck was located at Murdoch's Ranch and Hime Supply. There was a nice line, people waiting in the cold say's something about the food! Met a few people we had never known but struck up conversations with them from local to Pennsylvania. The food taken home was delicious and plentiful. The fish was superb and fries were just right. Sauces were all great - nice variety. Tartar sauce, Sweet Thai Chili, Malt Vinegar, Ketchup and Sriracha Mayo. Choice of 2 each plate. Can't wait to come back to Salida when they are present. Definitely make a point to stop in when in your area. The truck was done up nicely and well organized. The color was well chosen! The location was spacious and plenty of parking. They made it easy to see the truck! read more

We've eaten here several times but this was the first time getting the kids meal with crab cakes/nuggets...they had a butane smell to them and were really dark in color. My daughter didn't eat them and I wasn't a fan with the smell. The fish was smaller strips than we've ever gotten before. It was very tasty just smaller. We really like the fact we can order ahead now. read more

On the Hook - The Just Fish from In the Hook - Food Trucks Near Me

I have yet to find my holy grail for fish and chips here in KC, but I will continue to give places a try. I had heard some good things about On the Hook, a food truck that was near me on 119th and Nall, so I gave them a try. I got three pieces and fries with tartar sauce for $17 with tax and a $2 tip. I said fries, because these aren't English style chips, but regular cut fry that were coated in perhaps the batter. It was good and the coating puts it up and above a plain french fry, but at the end of the day, it is not authentic to an English chip I want and if you told me they came out of a McCain's frozen bag, I'd believe it. The letdown was the fish. Mad of cod, they are not cut in fillets but strips and that is their main problem. A strip of fish will dry out quickly, because the meat is cut thin and narrow here the fish had no juiciness and thus made it tasteless. A good sized fillet is preferred because it retains it's juiciness, even when deep fried. The batter was okay and the tartar sauce was on point, but overall, it was a below average food experience. With prices nowadays, you do get a decent value if your judging by the volume of food, but I'd rather pay a few bucks more and get a single fillet that had a great batter that was crisped to perfection. read more

On the Hook - No Chowder on the hook - Food Trucks Near Me

I love this food truck. I get a chance to eat it about once a year and I always enjoy it. It's some of the best fish and chips I've ever had. Ordering is simple and the people are really friendly. The price is a tad high but you get plenty of fresh, hot food in trade for your money. After ordering, I sat on my tail gate with my dogs and enjoyed my meal. I find the food truck experience very pleasant and I'm happy to see so many truck food types on the rise. If you're looking for fresh, hot and crispy fish and chips, give this mobile eatery a try. read more

This was my go to every other Thurs in Longmont. It was fantastic 2-3 years ago. I have no pictures, suffice to say. We don't eat this much anymore. It might be the barely cooked fries or a dinner that you just toss because fish was overcooked and the fries were limp and fried in grease that wasn't hot enough. Sorry we've given you so many chances. The tartar sauce was the best with the blue lid on it. Then you changed it to the white lid that is pretty bland and watery. I don't know if owners read this. Hope so. Good luck in turning this around. Sincerely read more

I've seen the truck around a few times, but was never able to stop. Finally caught them last night at Westlake Hardware in Lenexa. There were quite a few people waiting in line and a few more who had placed orders ahead online. I waited in line and even with the crowd and online orders, the order came up pretty quickly. I took it home and the food was still nice and hot by the time I got back. The fish was a good portion and breaded nicely. Personally I enjoy a more crispy coating, but it was still very good. The cod was fresh and tasted good on its own, but I also really enjoyed their tartar sauce. The chips/fries were also battered and really, really good. Perfectly crispy and had very good flavor. I would order from them again. read more

To start this review off I'd like to point out they do not have their prices listed. They do not accept cash also. One meal of three fish planks ( small at that ) and a handful of fries and coke slaw was $30 ! They added a 15 percent tip in the total without telling us also. The slaw didn't have a dressing on it and came with a tiny little cup of what taste like teriyaki sauce. It was not good. They gave me the wrong sauces and I didn't get what I asked for. All in all of go to long John silvers . It just tastes better and cheaper with no hidden fees. I want to let you know also this was in Jacksonville Illinois on April 9th 2026 read more

Decided to try them again as I got off work and was starving. And just like a gift, the truck pulled into the parking lot I was at. If that's not a sign I don't know what is. Ordered a fish and chips meal and waited for it. Wasn't bad as I ordered pretty much when they started cooking. The fish was fried much better this time. Not over fried and the inside tender and fresh. The fries were hot and tasty. Ate the meal in my car and boy was it good to fill the empty tummy. Server was polite which made it even better. read more

We've always loved their fish & chips & since they were near us, we decided to finally make a trip. Last time, a while ago, they ran out of fish, so we tried to get there early. There was a line of about 8 people. We ordered the fish & chips & a side of coleslaw. They ran out of tarter sauce, but still had 2 other sauces which were good. The fish & chips were good, but the coleslaw was sparse, about 1/4 c. for $3+. It wasn't even close to filling the small container. I think we'll just stick w/the fish & chips next time. read more

By far the best fish and chips I've had , the Bacon chowder was cold and seemed like it was frozen prior to serving.Don't serve the Soup if it's not ready pretty simple concept. Because of a long wait to finally get the soup that wasn't ready I'm giving two Stars. The fish was great , nothing special about the fries. read more

I had high hopes, but it was meh. We'd been wanting to try it for awhile, and finally had an opportunity this weekend. Stopped by and ordered a meal and a couple sides to share ($20 for a single plate). We requested Tartar Sauce & Malt Vinegar for our 2 sauces, and they cooked it while we waited. The batter on the fish was a bit soggy rather than crisp, but the fish itself had good flavor. Not a fan of these "battered" fries, but the slaw was very tasty. For the price, it could definitely be better. read more

02/2024 - ON THE HOOK Fish & Chips food truck Saw long line in Kohl's parking lot, so I had to check it out. I ordered a meal (3pc fish & fries) w/ extra pc of fish = $21 + "required" tip (see below) PRO: freshly made, consistent with English fish & chips CON: Only takes cards, which I thought was odd - until I paid. Cashier hands you a phone & you are required to tip to finish the transaction. I'm all for tipping...but don't like it as a requirement. Cashier said they use Square for card processing. Tips shouldn't be required. Not cool. I would have tipped more, in cash, if it wasn't on the card. Poor taste in my opinion. I literally received 6 fries in my container (see pic). For $21, I would have thought more. Came with too many sauces: tartar, sweet chili, ketchup & malt vinegar. Since I only used malt vin, I will be throwing away the rest. For cost & environment sake, wish the sauces were on request. Anyone need sauce, let me know...I have several. All in all, glad I tried. Was good, but not sure worth the hype. For $24, I'd probably go have a 2 course Thai meal down the street. read more

In land-locked Colorado, I truly appreciate any opportunity to have delicious seafood. I am grateful to have come across On the Hook food truck. With such a limited menu - just the fish, fries, slaw and chowder, one would expect everything to be of the highest quality. My meal of fish and chips with coleslaw did not disappoint. I needed to add a bit more seasoning, but overall I was very pleased with my first visit to this food truck, it will not be my last. I did not try the chowder - yet. Prices may be a little rough if you need to feed a family, but it appears that is the unfortunate reality these days, whether we are eating out or from our own kitchen. Even with it being an incredibly hot late afternoon summer day- as in nearing 100 degrees, the staff was pleasantly cheerful, friendly and enthusiastic. read more

We tried the 21st Street location for the 1st time. It won't be our last, for sure! The fish was very fresh and tender. It melted in my mouth, literally, it was just melting away. We only ordered fish, no chips. The fish-only order is 4 nice-sized strips, fresh from the fryer. I ordered cole slaw to go with, and it was very different. It's prepared without dressing, so the cabbage stays dry and crisp. The dressing, in a one-ounce cup, is nestled in the center of the slaw. It is a sweet vinaigrette with almost a floral taste. It's mild and flavorful. The staff was friendly and fast. The area around the truck was clean. read more

My husband loves this food truck! He finds out when/where they will be and prioritizes a quick trip! One thing that I'm impressed with is how fast they fix the food. It is made to order, so they don't have a big pan of fish and chips just sitting there, it's made just for you. Great service. Not much to say about ambiance, it's a food truck! They do use a credit card scanner like "Square" You should plan on leaving a small cash tip if you wish. Condiments are provided upon request, but they only give you a couple ketchup packets. I always bring my own! read more

Never again. For as many years On the Hook has serviced Canon City we have enjoyed there food. This time was the last. AS usual we order a single meal with an extra piece of fish and 2 Cole slaws. Pickup the order and no Cole slaw, he gives me one, I told him we ordered 2 which he obliges. Drive 15 minutes home, NO FRIES. Drive back and he tells me we didn't order Fries. Now it is A La Carte and one MUST say Fish and Chips. We have ordered for years the very same way. 28.00 for a single fish and chips and cols slaw? We can sit down and order Fish and chips for 2 and pay the same or a few bucks more at a restaurant . The One gentleman who takes the order as a little argumentative when I asked about the fries of 2 dollars more. Never again. read more

We had this place tonight after a trip to London in which we looked for the best fish and chips! This place competes for sure! Unfortunately for us it was a 20 minute drive home so we recognize it would have been even more bomb if we dove in on the way home. But even with the drive, the fries held up extremely well and the fish was so fresh and Tatar so good it didn't matter that it lost a bit of crunch!! Love it! Delish! Highly recommend! read more

The prices rose while the amount of food went down along with the quality. I understand the tariffs are affecting all aspects of business. You would hope that companies would find ways to improve quality, raise prices, and give the consumers something that is worth it. Not here. The fish smelled horrible. You barely get anything, for the prices that are expensive. It's cheaper to make your own and it's not hard. If you're craving fish and chips there are great recipes online. Save yourself the frustration. read more

Not what I'm used to with this truck. The fish today was cut very thin. When it was cooked it came out very dry and tough. I was also a little disappointed at being presented with a tip screen after paying. I waited on myself like any other fast food place. Altogether, with tip, I paid $25 for barely edible fish. The fries were far better than the fish. This was the Broomfield, CO truck at Jax. read more

We enjoyed a fish and chips dinner at On the Hook food truck when it visited Parker at Murdoch's parking lot. Upon arrival there were about 10 people in line, and it took maybe 10 minutes to order. Once we ordered the wait was said to be about 5 to 7 minutes and this was accurate. We all ordered the fish and chips dinner which comes with three pieces of freshly fried cod, french fries, a package of tartar sauce, and a package of sweet chili sauce. You can also ask for malt vinegar if you'd like to have that. Ketchup was included for the french fries. The food was very good and the fish and chips was freshly fried nice and crispy. The fish had a wonderful taste, was firm, flaky and succulent. The coating was crispy yet not as gnarly as I like to have on my fish and chips. The dinner cost $15. Also available at the food truck was soda and chowder. Both credit and debit cards were accepted. This truck comes to Parker on a regular basis, maybe couple of weeks. The food was good enough that will definitely consider returning in the future. After receiving our dinners, we took them to a nearby park to enjoy while it was still hot and fresh. Dinners are packaged in a biodegradable paper container which is easy to transport. read more

Always look forward to On the Hook coming to town but portion sizes have gone down substantially while Prices have gone up.

Went to On the Hook Fish and Chips yesterday. I had high hopes but was very disappointed. The fish was okay at best, pieces were small and batter was chewy from being put in a cardboard box and the steam ruined the crispy crust. They should have been wrapped in paper, the classic way to serve them. Fries were great, but the cole slaw was a total rip off. Just shredded cabbage with a very small amount of odd, sweet, non-mayo dressing - terrible. I will never go back. If you want really good fish and chips like you get in the UK, go to the Captian's Corner in Paradise, MO, by Smithville Lake. All of their food is outstanding. read more

FINALLY was able to try these guys! The rumors are true...it is fantastic fish & chips! The best we have had outside of Seattle. The batter is delicious, the fries crispy & the cod was flaky & flavorful without any hint of a "fishy" taste. They give you lots of sauces, including siracha mayo, tater sauce, ketchup & malt vinegar. $14 for a good amount of food...although one take-out box had 3 large pieces of fish, while the other box's pieces were on the small side. If we had only ordered one box & received the one with the small pieces I think we would have felt that it was overall an overpriced dish. Luckily however, we ordered two and the large pieces in the 2nd box made up for the small ones in the first. So happy to find this fish & chips gem in landlocked Colorado. They actually have food trucks in 15 states nationwide! Their weekly schedule can be found on both their Instagram & Facebook accounts. read more

When I saw this food truck on Facebook I really wanted to try it because I love fish and chips. I missed going to it the first time it was local, but I saw that it was a little bit further and had to try it. There was quite a long line when I arrived. I ordered a three piece fish and chips and OMG it was the best I've ever had and I lived in San Diego for 25 years and tried many different places. The batter on the fish was crunchy and the fish was super tender. The fries were also excellent. Yummy yummy yummy!!! Looks like this food truck travels to many places. I am hoping they will be back because I will definitely be there to pick up more of the deliciousness read more

This food truck really lives up to all the hype. I only found out about it from a co-worker. Went out to the Northland Kansas City, MO location today and there was even a line before the truck opened. I would say this is the best fish and chips I ever had. The batter was thin and crispy that makes you feel like you are biting into a cloud. The fried batter has just the right amount of consistency to it, not too heavy or too greasy and not too light, it is just right. The fish tastes very fresh and makes you feel like you are at a remote sea-side fish shack in the Pacific Northwest. The portions are surprisingly huge for each fish piece, one order of 3-pieces will easily make most people feel full. The fries are just so-so, but the fish is where it is at. I looked into a lot of other reviews on Yelp and Google, and with some of the negative comments about the tipping and slow wait times are true to an extent. With the tipping, they do ask you politely to contribute after you pay, by providing a choice 15%/25% on the screen, but if you don't want to tip, you can easily click on Custom Tip and add 0, so there is a quick way out of it as well if you look closely to the options. With the long wait times, they cook everything at the time of the order, so only about 3-4 boxes can be fried up at a time. I was part of the first batch when they opened and it did take about 10-15 minutes. So if you come in later behind a line, expect to easily wait more than 30 minutes. They don't post a menu with prices on their website, but today's prices were: fish and chips $15, fish only $13, extra fish piece add-on $4. Overall, I would definitely return again, heck I even got a second order after I finished mine to eat later for dinner. Their locations are really random with no set pattern so you always have to watch for the calendar. read more

Having stalked On The Hook on Facebook for over a year now, I was excited to find them setting up shop a mere 10 minutes from home. Score! So I hopped in the car and made my way east to Strasburg to see if their fish was really worth the hype. ++ Their menu is simple: fish and chips. Don't let the simplicity fool you, it's small, but damn do they do it well! I picked up two -- meals, and they were so good. The fish was perfectly fried and so so sooo fresh. There's def a little something going on in their batter that gives it a little oompf! ++ The staff is friendly AF! With the kinda volume/traffic they get, I would expect them to be all business, but not the case! Everyone made short but friendly banter with me. Def a pleasant surprise. ++ Pricing is on point for the portion size and the quality of food you get. ++ They know how to make stalking simple! The folks at On the Hook regularly update their social media to include calendars of where they will be across the 11 states they travel throughout. Not to mention, they have one of the snazziest website I've seen for a food truck. On top of that they regularly rotate the spots they base out of, ensuring that they can serve different communities. Serious, such a great model! I'd highly recommend checking out On the Hook if you get the chance. They def sling up some drool-worthy fish and chips! read more

I don't know where to even begin with this disaster of an experience. My friends and I encountered one of their food trucks on K-10 highway, and let me just say -- it was an absolute nightmare. Not only was the weather terrible (rain, wind, you name it), but we were just trying to make our way through the bad conditions, when this food truck decided to make our lives worse. This truck kept trying to pass us, even though it was unsafe, and they couldn't care less about the conditions or the fact that we were just trying to drive cautiously. After a few attempts to pass, they finally succeeded -- and then, as if it wasn't enough, they FLIPPED US OFF. I repeat: they FLIPPED US OFF. Not only is this incredibly unprofessional, but it's downright dangerous and rude. Who even does that? A food truck -- serving food, mind you -- actively putting drivers at risk and then showing us the middle finger? I don't care how good your fish and chips are; I'll NEVER be eating at "On the Hook" again. They clearly don't know how to drive, treat customers with any respect, or handle basic human decency. Avoid this place at all costs unless you enjoy being treated like crap on the road. Shame on them! read more

This is the second time we have taken advantage of a local visit by this food truck. They have a very simple menu which is fish n chips. The fish is cod and on our first visit it was crunchy and delicious. Our second visit the fish was not as crispy and a little undercooked but still delicious. They are fries with the fish but I am not much of a fried potato person. I will try them again the next time they are in the neighborhood and will ask for extra crispy to be sure it is well cooked. read more
