This was my first and last visit here. The food was mediocre at best and certainly not worth the prices they charge. Also had to pay $4.85 for tarter sauce for our group. The most disappointing part of my experience was with the staff. The man at the counter was unfriendly and very clearly annoyed with having to interact with me. Only positive note is they have a decent process for online ordering. read more

Fries were soggy. Fish was really disappointing, breading was way to thick and had zero seasoning. The tartar sauce (which cost extra!!!!!) was basically just mayonnaise. There is an Ivar's like a mile down the road. Go there instead. read more

Delicious, fresh fish and chips, prawns and chips! Awesome clam chowder, actually the very best I have ever had. Their cocktail sauce for prawns is amazing. It's made with horseradish. So good! Clean store, polite staff and our order was ready in 10 - 15 minutes on a weekend dinner hour! Superb fish and chips house!!! read more

Stopped in waiting on the ferry, clean little place. The 3 guys working tonight were all so sweet! I only got some fries, but they were perfect and just crispy enough!! They also have that good ranch :) read more

Kind and generous service :-) Thanks for the free sauce! First time coming, food is good!

I grew up on the Alki and Green Lake locations. Alki is by far my favorite but Green Lake was solid. I never liked Juanita and this one was the worst yet. The fish was much smaller and a different texture than Alki and the tarter sauce was definitely different and not in a good way. They didn't have the Spicy vinegar option either. The price was high and I was disappointed. It actually upset my stomach pretty badly. I've been eating at Spuds for over 40 years. It's a family favorite but I'm going to miss this one going forward as well as Juanita. They shouldn't be using the name if the product isn't going to be consistent read more

waited 20 plus minutes for my food. never got my food as my car was parked in the holding area for the ferry. literally running out the door with no food. been on the road the last 8 hours, hungry and diabetic. glad i didnt have a medical emergency. i want a refund. place wasnt that busy. pretty pissed off right now read more

I wanted to like Spuds, I really did. The owners were working the day that I was there, nice people. The restaurant was clean and in very good repair (actually, its a bit sparse on décor). The big disappointment was the fish. It is pricey, so I had high expectations. Its wasn't crowded, my order was taken and cooked in a timely manner. The problem was the fish was VERY thin in many places and overcooked. Additionally, the fish had large clumps of batter that wasn't very pleasant. I think Spuds could put out a better, more consistent product especially on a weekday when the crowds are thin. read more

This is a full $20 bill - prawns & chips and a fountain drink. As a seattle native, I miss the icy slushy lemonade from the Spud of yore and the handcut "chips" . Spud of 2022 has your standard frozen fries and an out of order sign on the lemonade spigot of the soda machine. Also no fresh cut lemons in sight to squeeze onto your seafood. Breading was real heavy today on my prawns and very crunchy and dense. For the price, I didn't feel very satisfied. Didn't hit the right notes that were in my memory from years gone by. Either the price needs to be lower or the quality needs to be higher. read more

Spud Fish & Chips - This is a full $20 bill - prawns & chips and a fountain drink - Seafood Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

Not great. Most of our food seemed not-so-fresh, and the fish and chips were overdone at a very modest portion for a steep price. Chowder was a little sour, and the slaw was... pungent. Saving grace? Deep fried mushrooms were pretty good. read more

Second time eating from here. First time was to-go, ordered 2 halibut and 2 cod, each with fries. This time, dine-in, ordered cod only -one three-piece with fries and two individual pieces. Overall tasty. The aoli sauce is really good and pairs well with both fish and fries. A little pricey, but it's fish. On the waterfront. In Edmonds. I recommend something that is not at all fancy, but delicious. read more

OMG. I love a good fish and chip and this place exceeded my standards. Nice day on the beach and a refreshing dinner. Love this place and will be back!!! Super friendly staff. Pricing is affordable. read more

Spud Fish & Chips - a sign on the wall - Seafood Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

See all

Expensive and not very good dry bready coating on fish and the fries were not that great tarter sauce was awful mostly vinegary the best part of this place was the fountain drink read more

I was craving fish and chips and a coworker suggested I go to Spuds. The staff was very nice and attentive. I ordered the cod and mushrooms. The cod was good in the thicker part of the filet but dry in the thinner parts. I don't know who their supplier is but it might be good for them to get a more consistent cut of fish. The price was not consistent with the product. If the fish had been moist all the way through I would have paid more. Overall it's fine for a fast food fish place. read more

I've been eating at Spud Fish and Chips since I moved here in 1986. I lived in Jaunita and ate at this location occasionally. I was in the area, so I stopped by for lunch. It is definitely not the same Spud as it used to be. The flavor was terrible, the fish was thin, and the batter is really, really awful. I went to the Edmonds one once and it was just as bad. I was surprised to find that the Juanita one is now the same low quality as the Edmonds one. I now live in Seattle and go to the Green Lake Spuds, which is still the same as the fish I used to get in 1986. Why are the Edmonds and Juanitas stores so terrible? They should go back to the old batter. The batter they're using is dry and tasteless. I'll never go back to either of those locations. Very disappointing and way too expensive for such a disappointing experience. I'd give zero stars if I could. If you want good Spud Fish and Chips, go to Alki, or wait until the Green Lake one reopens. read more

I am from Seattle but moved away several years ago. I'm in town to visit and walked into Spud while waiting for the ferry. I placed my order and the gal asked if I wanted tartar sauce. When I said yes, I saw saw her enter something into the cash register. I asked if it came with it and she said no, there was a charge. I was stunned. Do you have to pay for ketchup too?? Absolutely ridiculous! I cancelled my order and walked out shaking my head. Nickel and dime your customers and you won't have any left! read more

Small portions with huge prices! Your better off eating on the ferry, my fish was good but the bun was stale and the mozzarella sticks were disgusting read more

If you grew up on Spids fish and chips then don't waste your time or money at the Edmonds Spuds. I have been eating Spuds fish and chips at Greenlake, the original location still run by the same family. Edmondson doesn't imitate the original in any respect. The fries are standard frozen fries supplied by Sysco or some other restaurant supplier not fresh potatoes sliced on site with skin on. I threw mine out after 2 fries. The fish fillets are so thin you can almost read a newspaper through them. The batter is in no way the original Spuds batter that they have famous for since 1935. It's also so thin you can barely tell its there when you chew it. Double the price it should be if priced on quality. It's sad that the family is letting their name be attached to such poor quality. read more

I would love to review their food, but the front door was locked at 5pm, with a whole lot of customers inside. Guess when they get too busy they just lick their doors read more

Ordered fish and chips while waiting for ferry. Worst fish. Heavy crust/breading and fish was scant an dry. Chips were hot and flavorful. But not amazing either. read more

Spud Fish & Chips - fish and chips in a basket - Seafood Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

Tried to come in at 6:30 pm since I thought they were open. The doors were locked even if the open sign was still on.

Wish I had checked the yelp reviews before coming here. The good: Clean Fish is well cooked Portions are reasonable, not too big The bad: The batter is bland Prices are high The ugly: Clam chowder is bland and starchy...more like a potato soup with a few bits of clam read more

Craving fish and chips, this spot is worth a try!!! I usually go to Spuds on Alki, but was ecstatic to find out there was one north of Seattle. Their fish is fried very well, and does not have an oil or watery taste when biting into the crispy battered fish! My only critic I have is their tartar sauce. This may be particular to my taste but the tartar has too much of a relish taste for me. But other than that I love their fish and chips! Want something besides fish, their chicken and chips is just as good in my opinion. This particular location is very large, and accommodating. They also have outdoor seating which is nice for those summer days in Washington (the three months out of the year we have sunshine!). read more

Horrendously overpriced One piece cod and chips, two piece cod and chips, 2 small fountain sodas, 2 tartar sauce. $23 Portions are tiny. Fries were soggy. Soda was fine though some of the other reviews mention a dirty machine. The location was clean and the employees friendly, my only real upsides. Added a photo of what we got to this page read more

Spud Fish & Chips - $23. Tartar sauce containers are 3" across - Seafood Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

Ordered their double cod fish and chips. Tasted just okay, I was hoping it was "battered" (vs breaded). They charge extra for sauces e.g., cocktail, or BBQ, etc. 35 cents for small and 60 for large. Wait staff were curious, rest rooms were clean , and the restaurant itself was kept clean read more

Really really really dry, will not eat here again. The fact you have to pay extra for tartar sauce really is a kick in between the legs too.

Poor value for money Quality of food was terrible. Staff were friendly Not worth 1 star read more

I love Spuds fish and chips. The only reason I'm even giving 2 stars and not 1, is that prior to today, I've only gone to the Alki location. Alki has set the bar high and are ALWAYS delicious. So high, that the Edmonds location employees should take a day off, go over to the Alki spuds, and take some notes on how fish, chips and chowder are made, because Edmonds Spuds needs some serious work on their food. Below is a run down of what I ordered and how I felt about it- 2-3 Piece cod and chips 2-Large chowder 4-Large tartar FISH: Completely overdone. So overdone, my wife couldn't even bite through the breading! (Seriously, that is the absolute truth) FRIES: As far as French Fries go, I had no idea that they could be made that s*****.... and if you can't figure out what I said up there you should stop reading now. CHOWDER: If they are calling this "clam chowder" you got another thing coming. It taste more like potato soup that was made with reconstituted potato mash, I don't think I tasted one clam. PRICE: If you're interested in a good deal, don't plan on getting one here. 2-3 piece cod and fries, 2 large chowder and 4 large tartar sauce (never quite understood why they make you pay for tartar?), NO DRINKS, $60.00 bucks! Does that mean it would cost over $120.00 for A family of four? Seems like really expensive fast food to me. read more

Possibly the worst fish and chips I have ever had. Stopped in thinking that it would be great and easy and get good fish when they're literally on the beach. We were so disappointed. I've never seen cod so thin and dry...took the flavor out completely. The fries, mozzarella sticks and fried pickles were fine, nothing special and definitely not why we chose to eat and pay over $40 for a family of 3. Beware! If you order fish and chips you have to PAY EXTRA FOR TARTAR SAUCE. AND IT IS GROSS, TASTES SPOILED! all condiments come with a charge. Completely rediculous especially for the large price tag on the entrees. Sad...they should do better. Next time we will just go to Ivars, never have been disappointed there. read more

It was good. A bit over priced. The bathrooms were clean. We were in and out within 10 minutes. They have two pinball machines...thought that was pretty cool. read more

Update - Either a manager or employee tried leaving me a message on Yelp saying they thought I was kidding because there were "so many reviews noting how clean they were." Well... unfortunately this isn't one of those. My dad said he was embarrassed to eat there and embarrassed for the employees. Note to whomever messaged me - you may want to take this seriously. If it's half as bad as it was when we went in, you'll be losing customers quickly. read more

Underwhelmed...price outweighs both taste and quality of food...my family and my seafood fix for the day was definitely far from satisfied... read more

Fries were not good. Soggy. Probably needed to be fried longer, or more likely needed a higher oil temp to get them crispy. Fish was fine, although in a perfect world would probably be just slightly less breading. read more

My review was apparently removed so I'll share again! The order was not fulfilled in May of 2020. It was our first time out (other than work - long term care). We took our order for 3 to the beach. Surprise- 2 entrees missing. The "manager" said I lied and made a scene about attempting to fix. They didn't. They wouldn't give me a BAG. I provide customer service daily, I get it. This place has HORRENDOUS service, and the cold food wasn't worth the charge, let alone the charge for what we didn't get. Get some frozen fish sticks. Better chouce! read more

Good food, fish was hot when we got it, lemonade was cold. Kind of loud, good service. I was happy with the place. A little expensive.

First time here and not at all impressed. Shrimp looked nice but was under cooked, batter was a little soft. The price of clam chowder was in the range of a fresh chowder but its canned. In fact the prices across the board are high for a fish stand. These prices make me feel that I walked into seafood restaurant. They also make you pay for your tarter or cocktail sauce. I would think that for these prices it would be included. Not everything is bad though, thats why I gave them a star. The service was nice and the place was clean. However I will not come back. read more

Spud Fish & Chips - Seafood Near Me - Edmonds, Washington

Unsafe COVID practices. I've been getting Spud every week or 2 for a while now, I've noticed that their practices have changed more recently. Back in March they were better about wearing PPE, but that has changed. I placed an order today and noticed their curbside pickup had changed to a $5 fee. When I asked about this, I was told they were having a hard time finding cars and didn't like people sitting in the parking lot. More troubling is their lack of mask and glove usage. I also asked about this and was told it is personal preference. I said that it is also my personal preference not to purchase again. I was asked to leave and not spread information about the importance of wearing masks. As I was leaving, one employee said to the other "It's F***ing personal preference" at which point I came back inside and asked him to clarify why he's yelling expletives about customers. At this point a 2nd employee came to the front. It was this employee that then aggressively followed me to my car where my 5 year old was waiting for me and asked me if I was going to leave the property. He would not give me his name, specifically stating that he didn't have to. I said that indeed I was going home and not returning and left. Needless to say, I'm done with Spud. read more

Very bad my battered skin came off my piece of fish very expensive and not recommended

Not bad, food was expensive for the $ but delicious, service however lacked attention. I was asked "for here or to go?". I reply, "to go". Literally ten seconds later, "would you like that for here or to go?". I repeat, "to go". He responds apologetically, "oh, oh yeah". We wait for the food, it comes out on trays and I need to clarify for a third time, "to go". read more

A friend turned me on to Spud. I like a good fish and chip place, and this place has a good quality product. It's not cheap, by any means, but it's worth the money. I grew up with a good fried fish place, but many places fall short. Spud is different than what I grew up with, but that's not always a bad thing. It's actually refreshing. I like the cleanliness of Spud, their product quality, and they are generally fast. I will become a regular when I'm in the mood for a good fried fish. Keep it up Spud! read more
