The food is a five-star experience! The fish and chips are simply the best I've had outside of Ireland. Absolutely worth a quick ferry ride from Seattle! I'm giving three stars overall because the restaurant's system could use some improvement, especially during busy times. Customers line up to order at the cash register, which is also where the only menus I saw were located. Without a menu board, (or loose menus), visible while waiting farther back in line, you're left trying to decide what to order when you reach the counter, which can feel rushed. Once you order, you're given a table number, and seating is first come, first served. There's indoor seating, a 21+ bar area, and outdoor seating, but these spaces fill up quickly. You may need to make a couple of passes or keep an eye out for diners finishing up to find a spot. When my husband and I visited, the restaurant was pretty busy. We waited in line for a few minutes and noticed quite a few people trying to find seats. As we approached the cashier, we were still looking for a menu board and didn't find one until we were nearly at the counter. The cashier was patient and friendly, but we felt rushed to place our order to keep the line moving. After ordering, we made a couple of passes looking for a table before heading to the bar area. We found a couple of empty but dirty tables and, seeing signs indicating that tables would be cleaned, chose one and waited. Unfortunately, no one came, so we eventually moved to another table after a couple left. That table was noticeably cleaner. We also noticed a staff member passing by several times carrying a tray of drinks. When there were only a couple left, my husband stopped her to ask if they might be ours, and they were! She also cleaned our table for us. She seemed understandably flustered trying to keep up with everything. Thankfully, once the food arrived, all was right with the world! The fish and chips really are that good. I wonder whether having a dedicated busser during peak hours might help keep tables cleaner and make things less chaotic for both staff and customers. Bottom line: Come for the incredible fish and chips, but be prepared for a little chaos when it's busy. With a few improvements to the ordering and seating process, this place could be a five-star experience all around.
Fun and cozy spot for fish and chips!! I've heard plenty of comparisons between the Seattle and London weather, but who knew Seattle's cuisine could also emulate our friend over the pond. This popular spot often has lines out the door, but the service is extremely efficient (and friendly!), so you likely won't have to wait for too long. Everyone seats themselves, so I'd take a quick sweep of the restaurant to see if there's a table available first before you commit to dining in, though. The fish and chips are MASSIVE, with a huge fillet of tender and perfectly fried white fish. The fish spans the entire length of the basket and then some, but it somehow manages to still be perfectly flaky on the inside and crispy on the outside. It's not overly battered, and the fish goes wonderfully with the malt vinegar or tartar sauce. The fries are pretty thick and also boast a pretty soft, tender interior and crispy outer shell.
Hands down, great fish & chips on the West Coast I've ever ate. Being a South Pacific Islander, we tend to migrate to fish and chips because of how close we are to NZ & Aussie and eating here made it close to that feeling. It was a great adventure getting and beautiful site seeing as well. Service was on point, one of the workers there greeted us in our native language and it was a cute highlight and having a beautiful conversation with her. One thing I loved was the chutney mashed peas you put on top with the malt vinegar and tartar sauce. *CHEFS KISS* it was the best bite and I took everyone's mashed peas. All around 9/10 for us. It is a super small business so try to get there when the foot traffic is low because if not, you'll be eating under the gazebo across the street.
Ordered: - British Fish & Chips - Overall, good fried fish. The tartar sauce was also good. Fries/chips are on the thicker side but they work. - Fried Oysters - I liked this one too. I was honestly a little surprised that I enjoy this one as much as I did. - Fish Sandwich - I would just skip this one if we went back and just do the regular fish and chips. Wasn't a fan of the bread. - Lobster Roll - Alright. Would probably only reorder the Fish and Chips and Fried oysters (if you like that/feeling it). I wish they let you sub out some of the regular fries in the main courses for onion rings or for the thin fries (that are available with the tacos). Also wish you could just order the fried oyster itself as a side. Got there around 2:30 ish on a Saturday, waiting in line about 30 minutes before we ordered and about 20 minutes after to get the actual food.
I came around 2pm on a Sunday and there was a small line. The restaurant isn't too big, so we had to wait a little for seating. The food took around 30 minutes to come out. Both the fish and the fish sandwich were great - the fish was crisp and light and the tang from the tartare sauce paired well with the fish. The fries were good fresh, but as they cooled down they started tasting like cardboard. It felt like some of the fries weren't fully cooked through because they were so thick. The cod chowder was disappointing. I was really looking forward to it because i prefer cod to clams, but it tasted just like unseasoned cream. If i was to rate the soup alone I would give it a 2.
The BEST fish & chips in Seattle confirmed. I've heard so many things about Proper Fish and had to make the trip out to Bainbridge Island to see for myself. We got the British Fish & Chips, Baby Gem Lettuce Caesar, and Chowder. The fish was WOW. Great batter that stayed crispy. A HUGE fresh cut of cod. Thick cut fries that were perfect in every way. Safe to say my mind was blown. Hands down the best fish & chips. Everything else we ordered was just ok. Stick with the fish & chips.
Commuted 2 hours just to get a taste of the fish and chips here! (Through the link, ferry, and walking...) So worth it! Got an order of the fish and chips, plus their lobster roll. Super tastyyyy and great! The fish was incredibly crispy and the lobster was delicious. I'd pass on the mint green peas LOL, just my personal opinion. Very odd much interesting. Service was great, and I was glad to see this place busy! Interior is nice, cozy, and inviting! Thanks a lot!
No one answered the phone even after spending the whole ferry ride calling, including all the waiting before and after boarding It did sounded like someone just picked up and hung out the phone, multiple times though. After a round of golf, we tried calling again, still no one picked up the phone, after 20 minutes, we decided that this is our last try before going to a pizza place. Then magic happened, someone actually picked up the phone, we decided to order to go since we figured it might be packed. Turned out the whole place was empty when we arrived to pick up our order. What?! Finally, the food, yes, it is actually the only fish and chips that is worth trying in Seattle. Fried fish, tender and juicy on the inside, thinly or lightly batter on the outside, although some area are starting to feel soggy because it was steamed in the Togo bag. But overall, still good. Fried oysters - so fresh and delicious, I can totally skip the fish and eat this all day long. We traded the fries/chips for the mashed peas and loved it. Hopefully, they improve the ordering system in the future. Otherwise, it can get quite frustrated.
We were headed to the water for a lunch view but saw this place in a whim & stopped in. It was packed inside & out! The fish & chips were tasty. I enjoyed the fresh Alaskan fish. The fries were just ok. It's served with a dollop of puréed peas that my husband tasted & said it had a sage flavor. My husband ordered the lobster roll which was stuffed full of lobster. He subbed a salad for fries that was fresh. I also ordered a peach bourbon smash. It was so good. I was kind of knocking because of the size but the taste factor totally made up for it. The place is very small with limited seating but we were able to sit at the bar & watch these amazing cooks in action. I took pics of the sandwiches & tacos as they were being made. I would definitely order one of these next time! Happy Eating!
During peak times, the wait is over an hour to get your food. You may stand in line for about 20-30 minutes, and once you pay, you get your food in about 40 minutes. Be prepared to wait. The fish and chips were... proper! Batter was fantastic and the fish and . The fries were great. Well season and crispy, but with a nice chew. For the price and large portion, I'd say it's not bad! Recommend going with a friend to grab a table and someone else order so you have a spot to eat. Great place for fish and chips!
We recently dined at Proper Fish on a busy Saturday for an early dinner. As expected, the line was long. When we got to the cashier, she told us it would take about an hour for our food. There are several tables inside and outside that are casually up for grabs. We didn't have to wait long to get a really good corner table in the back near the self-serve water station which nicely offers a carafe filled with ice water with lemon and another one without lemon. After less than an hour, as promised, our food came out fresh and steaming hot. I don't know if I'm just lucky or not super picky, but I thought our food looked amazing and tasted delicious! Our fish was juicy and perfectly cooked. It was the similar long fillet size that I remember having when I visited England. A nice touch is the fish and chips are laid on top of newspaper printed food safe parchment paper. The servers were friendly and helpful. They gave us a generous amount of hand-cut fries and just the right amount of minty mushy peas and tartar sauce. Of course, I doused my fish with a generous amount of malt vinegar the way I like it, and voilà, I was transported back to jolly old England! In my humble opinion, Proper Fish is a must place to dine when you're visiting Bainbridge Island. Then, a great idea is to walk the wonderful calories off and fight off the impending food coma by perusing the various cute shops and small businesses in their charming Downtown. If you want a longer walk and photo op, walk about 25 minutes from Proper Fish to see the large, cool wooden art installation "Pia The Peacekeeper Troll" in Sakai Park.
My favorite meal in Seattle!! If you're in Bainbridge you have to stop in. Line was fairly short, but food took ~30 mins to come out. The fish & chips were soooo good. Crispy, flakey, salty. Fish sandwich was also good, but I preferred the fish & chips.
My friends and I recently checked out Proper Fish during a visit to Bainbridge Island. We weren't super hungry so between the four of us, we only shared a single order of their fish and chips and a cup of clam chowder. After placing our order, our food was quickly prepared. Although I didn't set a timer, I would estimate it only took five minutes for our food to come out. Impressive, considering we were dining at 12:00 p.m. right as the lunch rush was coming through. The battered fish is fried well -- crispy and not oily, but the batter was a bit thick, and the fish was overcooked and didn't flake apart the way a tender piece of fish does when it's delicately prepared. I appreciate that the outside of the fish is generously salted. In addition to the tartar sauce and wedges of lemon that are included, there is also malt vinegar available at the table. While the fish was dry, everything else that was included in the entree was not bad. In fact, I really enjoyed the flavor and texture of mushy peas, and the thick cut fries were very crispy. My other notable criticism is around two key items: the disappointing chowder and the general cleanliness -- of lack thereof, of the restaurant. All four members of my party tried out the chowder and we all agreed that it was incredibly bland. The chowder lacked both salt and flavor, and tasted like hot, boiled cream. Regarding cleanliness, a few of us received cutlery that wasn't clean, and there were actually a few ants crawling on the table inside as well. Some other Yelpers have brought this up in their reviews, but Proper Fish unfortunately does not have the best track record when it comes to health inspections. Do what you will with this information, but this does not instill confidence that you'll make it out of this experience unscarred.

My friend's husband recommended Proper Fish for fish and chips and I'm so glad he did. We heard it's supposed to be Seattle's top fish and chip restaurant so we had to try it. The restaurant itself was buzzing with two different dining rooms and an outdoor seating area as well. You place your order at the counter and they'll deliver the food when it's ready. We tried the fish and chips and the soup of the day which was cod chowder. This soup was perfectly seasoned and tasted just like the New England style clam chowder I know and love. It was thick (but not too thick) and packed with delicious flavor. The fish and chips - which was perfectly battered and fried - came out piping hot, was generous in size and large enough to share between two of us. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and look forward to coming back again and eating outside in warmer weather. read more
When you arrive here it can be a bit confusing. They have amazing reviews, so ferry traffic tends to flock here. Add in your visit being on a weekend and expect for it to be packed. When you go inside to order it's a bit cramped, but manageable. You order food and then find a seat. That's where it got challenging for us. There were a lot of people saving seats while one person ordered, so it was hard for us to find one. We did eventually find one and didn't wait too long until they brought the food out. The oysters are everything you'd want in a fried oyster. They were pricey, but not too crazily priced. The fish was bland. I go out of my way to find seafood. I would eat it multiple times a day if I could. I had a couple bites of this and decided even with the high price it wasn't worth finishing to me. Oddly enough my friend who was with me (who typically does not eat seafood because it's too fishy) enjoyed the fish. She herself said she liked it because it was bland and didn't taste like fish at all to her. I'm not sure why it has such high ratings, for me the fish itself was a solid 2/10. read more
Yummm for their fish and chips. I came here with my family after walking around and exploring on a Sunday afternoon. The place is small and it was too cold to sit outside. I had to sit at a small table with my daughter because she was sleeping on the stroller while my group sat at a bigger table in the back. I ordered the fish and chips and it was delicious! Piping hot, crispy and flaky. No complaints at all. The portion was a good size(I couldn't finish but my brother came by to help). I really enjoyed the peas that I initially thought was guac haha. If I'm ever visiting Bainbridge, I'd definitely stop by for a quick bite. read more
Must visit when on the island. The portion size is huge. $22 for the fish and chips. The fish was fried perfectly and wasn't fishy at all. The service is good and the food comes out quick. It's a very chill vibe and self service on the water, utensils and hot sauces. read more
Can't go wrong with the British fish, comes with a hugeee piece if white fish on top of a bed of thick fries and a scoop of mashed peas. I highly recommend the pineapple mojito! Condiments and utensils are self serve around the back corner. Gets pretty crowded but service is fast. read more

A picture speaks a thousand words..."Improvement Needed". We saw a TikTok on this place and had to give it a try. We traveled over an hour and found that parking was almost nonexistent. There may have been a few spots in front but of course they were taken at the time. We decided to park a ways down the road and walk to the restaurant. Upon arriving there were no clear directions about how/where to order. We aimlessly meandered through noisy, cramped areas making our way from door to door then to a "bar area" where someone finally explained to go a bit further to place our order in another section of the building. We met the host who gave us menus and told us to order and to "sit wherever you can find a seat". We placed our order and highlighted there was no seating. He said there's a "bar area" that we could sit in and he would make sure our food made it to us. He handed us a metal numbered post and started taking the orders of others in line. After about 30 mins, we noticed people that ordered after us were getting their orders and we still hadn't been served. I approached the host and he said he had made a mistake with our number and had been looking for us but our food had only been done a couple of minutes. He brought us our food which also needed improvement. The fish was a thin filet of cod, fries were Luke warm (at best) and the bottled coke we purchased from the fridge was not sealed. As we were deciding to leave we noticed a sign posted on the tinted window next to our table and well away from the restaurant entrance from the Health Department giving them a rating of "Needs Improvement". Pretty much sums up our whole experience read more
It was such a beautiful day at Bainbridge Island, after taking the ferry my husband and I were met with his friend. He asked where we wanted to go and after checking out some Tiktok suggestions I decided that we were going to have an early dinner at Proper Fish. Proper Fish can get proper busy, you order your food at the register and find seats either inside their main restaurant, the bar or outside. We were lucky enough to get seats outside, we were so thankful that it wasn't rainy but it was still pretty chilly. My husband and his friend order the British fish and chips while my husband ordered fried oysters, I also ordered the chowder. We got our number and put it on the table and our food came out pretty fast. The chowder was exactly what I needed to stay warm, it was so delicious and creamy and filled with so much cod. When the fish and chips came out I was absolutely shocked with how huge my fillet was, it was crispy and flaky and still so moist and it was so tender. The fish was so delicious and the chips were big and fluffy on the inside. I typically don't like minty peas, I've had some in the UK and was not fan but these were actually really good. Now the oysters, I am not a fan but my husband really liked it. I just thought it was too wet lol. Please please please come and check them out. read more

The restaurant is a little small and staff is very friendly. Ordered the fish and chips and clam chowder. -fish and chips: came out hot and was so tasty, the portion is generous. you can definitely split between two people and leave full. fish was crispy but light, it wasn't oily at all. pea mash complimented the fish and was refreshing. the fries were thick and very filling -clam chowder: delicious and very warming, perfect for when it's cold and raining. I enjoyed eating this with the oyster crackers added on top for some extra texture read more

Fish was pretty darn good, chowder was more "meh". Huge portion of fish though! We shared one piece since we'd been stuffing ourselves all day. Not a lot of indoor seating, but plenty of outdoor seats for a warm day. Quick service! read more

This place is all over tik tok, so we took the ferry to Bainbridge, as we are always in search of good fish and chips. The venue itself has a fast food vibe. An order and then find a table place. The reason we won't be back is their Food Safety Inspection is " needs to improve" the lowest rating. When you look at their history this has been a consistent problem. They have placed the certificate near the till (not the entrance), so we didn't notice the certificate until after we had paid and found a table. read more

Umm hello?! One of the most stellar fish and chips I've had in my life! Juicy, tender, perfectly fried fish + perfectly salted, crunchy chips + fresh, mushy mint peas. Also tried the cod chowder and Caesar salad to complement our fish & chips. An epically delicious combo. The wait is a little long during peak lunch hours, but well worth the wait. 10/10. read more

I've been recommended Proper Fish before for fish & chips, for good reason. Solid spot somewhat close to the ferry, a good spot grab a bite after exploring shops. While I don't think it's a must try, I do think food matched expectations and a good fried fish typically hits the spot. British Fish & Chips - served with mushy peas, which I totally thought was guac, they're a refreshingly minty supplement. I'm not a total fan, but they're there. Fries were tasty, a good chunk of potato with lighter breading. Fish was huge! Served piping hot, the fish was soft. Tartar sauce was interestingly like a potato salad mixture but tasty. read more

Delicious fish! We travelled over to Bainbridge while in town for business and wanted to check out the ferry (which was so cool and would highly recommend doing!) We heard great things about Proper Fish, and it did not disappoint. We both got the fish and chips and it was delicious. A huge piece of cod served with fresh fries and mashed peas.... Yum! You order at the counter and take a seat in either the restaurant or the bar area & they bring it to you. The staff was very nice! We throughly enjoyed our meal here and would highly recommend stopping here for fish if you're in Bainbridge. Enjoy! read more

I was really excited to try this place after seeing so many great reviews on TikTok. The food looked amazing, so my expectations were definitely high. Unfortunately, it ended up being some of the blandest food I've ever had. It may just come down to personal preference--I have the palate of a Texan and I'm used to meals with a lot more seasoning and bold flavors. The customer service was excellent, and the staff was friendly and welcoming, which I really appreciated. Unfortunately, the food just wasn't for me, so I don't think I'd come back. Others may enjoy it, but it wasn't a good fit for my taste. read more

Ok. I've heard a lot about this place but had never been. Hubby and I had to pick something up on BI so I treated him for lunch. Sunday, in the off season for lunch, the bar was empty. Pro tip if you are 18+. The actual dining room was crowded with lots of families with kids. We watched the Steelers get creamed on the TV in peaceful quiet. Ok I'm a big fan of properly executed F&C. I would say this was it. Was it 'the best fish & chips I've ever eaten' like some reviewers have said. Not in my opinion but it was quite good. The slab of fish that shows up was impressive. Hubby and I shared. One thing that's different is that you get a real 'meaty' piece of fish. Not some rinky lil strip. We also ordered the O rings since we were sharing lunch. Now, these were panko crispy but no SOOO crispy that you ripped up the roof of your mouth biting in. Onions were good and thick and their tartar is spectacular! Now negatives...I found the fries too salty. It appears that the fish gets sprinkled with a finish of salt and, if that's so, it also winds up on the fries and that was too much. I did find the fish crust a wee bit soggy which I wasn't expecting from the reviews. That was disappointing but it's how most F&C is. Prices were a little high...$60 for a lunch that we split (yes there was ONE wine and ONE beer involved). But everything is expensive which makes me glad I'm a chef. I'd give it 4.5 stars but since I can't do that it gets a proper 4. Cheers! read more

Proper fish was incredible. Everyone inside the restaurant is so nice and welcoming. That enough makes me want to come back again. There was a semi-long line but our food came out in 15-20 minutes. Not too bad considering how much food we ordered. Everything came out nice and fresh. The fish was also huge! It was perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I was surprised how small the building looked and still had plenty of seating. However, the weather was nice outside and it helped cool down the food a bit by being in the nice crisp air. I'd definitely recommend this place! read more
Excellent fish and chips in a comfortable setting with friendly service. The portion was generous, the fish hot, the batter crunchy and the mashed peas a delicious and unexpected touch. The tartar sauce was delicious as well. For me definitely worth the trip from Seattle. I'll be back! read more

By far: one of the best meals I've had. Definitely an experience you need to have. Very large portions. The fish tacos are incredible. If we are coming to Bainbridge Island we have to stop by here to eat. read more

This was a great meal. There is very limited seating in their main restaurant, but there is additional seating in the bar area. The fish was super tender and fried to perfection. It was a very large portion. The mushy peas were something fun and new to try. The food came out much quicker than we were told it would take. The cod chowder was also something new I've never had. Tastes pretty similar to normal chowder but flakier meat. I would come back again. read more

The restaurant is pretty crammed and tiny. On a nice summer day they have a small patio. You can expect to wait in line for a while before placing your order. You place your order at a counter and then just wait. The fish and chips are some of the best in the area. It's similar to what you can get in London! The fish tacos are pretty good, with fried potato straws on top. Worth checking out if you have time to kill and aren't in a super hurry. read more
Well done proper fish, not only have you brought your restaurant back up to the standard we've loved since you were a food truck (yes I know ownership changed and it took a minute to get back to it) But the service was quick without feeling rushed, they themselves found us a table (in the new bar area, its 18+ but they were nice enough to let our 16 through) The food was perfect, crispy yet moist fish that was bigger than the basket, lots of their glorious fries and a scoop of mushy minty peas (really wish I got more of this its just that good) Love it will be back as always! read more

My family and I came here while we were on a family birthday vacation. We stayed in Seattle but took the ferry to Bainbridge Island. This was our first stop. No waiting in line, got a table immediately. Food was fresh and the drinks were delicious. The portion sizes were huge! The food, drinks and customer service were all a 10/10. Highly recommend. read more
Sooooo good! Waited in line for 20-30 min. Waited exactly an hour for the food which is how long staff said it would take. But all of the staff were so nice and moving so fast. Well worth the wait, best fish and chips I've ever had and the tartar sauce and fries were good too. Chipotle and cilantro sauces were really good too. You could share one plate with two people. Cod chowder was okay honestly, a little bland and could use more salt, but I did like the cod in there! The potatoes in the chowder were giant chunks and too hard. I've never tried mushy peas, but these were good, very minty. Wanted to try the onion rings but they were out by 2pm. Super crowded inside obviously, there's very limited seating and it's hot inside but there's a nice park across the street. It's at the very end of the downtown street, I'd recommend going immediately down there and walking around downtown while you wait. read more
Great food and service! We came on a Monday for lunch so thankfully it wasn't too crowded, but there were plenty of other people there. My sister and I shared one order of the British fish and chips and it was the perfect lunch portion for us, especially since we were just visiting for the weekend and wanted to try other places in Seattle. Even though we shared, we were still very full when we left! The fish was flaky and crispy and the fries were great as well. I liked the tartar sauce and we also tried the chipotle aioli. Neither one of us was brave enough to try the mushy peas. We sat outside on the patio, but there are a few tables inside as well. The bathroom is a bit tricky to find but there are lots of signs. read more

Loved the British fish and chips. Huge portion for $22!! So definitely for sharing. The cod chowder that day was nothing special. Check if it's clam chowder or not. If it's cod chowder, then skip it! Not worth $10. The chipotle sauce was good. They have a separate bar area which looked welcoming. read more
Came here after seeing a post on TikTok. Here, you will need to stand on line to place and pay your order before you get a number to place on your table you need to find yourself. You can grab your own utensils and water inside the shop. We ordered a fish and chips and fish tacos to share between 2 people. This is definitely a good portion for two to share. The fish tacos were good but a bit bland. The fish and chips were mediocre. While the fish tasted great with the tartar sauce, the chips were a bit undercooked. Was a great experience but would rather try another place on Bainbridge Island. read more

British Fish & Chips: The fish was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. We got a good portion of fish. The breading was not too thick on the fish. However, the chips (fries) were just okay. You start by ordering at the counter, and then it's up to you to find a table. After you order, they give you a table stand with your order number. When your food is ready, a server will search the restaurant, calling your number until they find you. There is both indoor and outdoors seating, and all of it was full when we ordered. We found ourselves standing in a corner scouting the room, and as soon as we saw a party stand up we rushed to claim their table. You grab your own utensils and water cups at the back of the restaurant. read more

We were very satisfied with our meal at Proper Fish. As tourists just passing through, we struck gold finding this gem. The fish and chips are worth every penny! Perfectly battered, not too heavy, hot and crisp. The fish itself was flaky and moist. The lobster roll was described as the best I have ever had by another member in our party. Pricey but also worth the cost. The servers were friendly and attentive. The restaurant itself is small and can only seat 22 so be prepared to wait if you have a larger party. There are only two larger tables in the back. read more

The fish and chips we got were good, nothing crazy, nothing special. It is consistent. I would love to come back and try their other menu items. The lines were long since this a popular tourist spot, it is to be expected. The service is quick for the long lines. read more
This is a cosy casual eatery with outdoor and indoor seating. Indoor was pretty warm and stuffy even on a mild weather day. They had fans running but it still smelled of fried fish. We opted to sit outdoors but had to wipe down our seats and table from the recent rain. I wish they had outdoor heaters because it was chilly in the shade. Order at the counter then take your number to your table of choice. Food comes out pretty quick. The fish was delicious, with great light and crispy batter, not too greasy. The tableside malt vinegar really enhanced the flavor. The tacos were a good size and had a solid serving of fish, but I felt they were a bit lacking in sauce. The crispy potato straws on top provided a nice extra crunch. A rush of people arrived shortly after we did, so our table service became a bit spotty. We were able to flag down a waitress to bring our cannoli, and it was nice that she thought to put it in a to-go box. read more

What a delight to have "proper" fish and chips for a little field trip to Bainbridge. I actually love mushy peas and it is so hard to find one that is authentic. They definitely nailed it. The fish was done right as well. Flaky fillet inside the medium batter. My son had the oysters and it was surprisingly good. The fries were not as crispy as I hope for but they were still solid. Yes, the line was long but it was worth it. read more
