Had the lunch special: 2 pieces of haddock & chips. The haddock was good - the batter was nice & light & it was well fried. The fish was pretty fresh. The tartar sauce was delicious. The fries were the usual fish & chip thick cut fries - not very crispy. read more

See all

Very friendly and great take out value! Especially if you have kids or 5 or more mouths to feed! I was really stirrups with their coleslaw. It's really creamy and good. read more

Service was great and the meal was really good. I would definitely go back for the fish and chips!

Went with the kids. Ordered the fish and chips for the wife and I. Kids had chicken fingers (my daughter ), and a bacon cheeseburger combo (my son). The portions were OK. I would have liked more fries as they tasted very yummy. The fish was delicious and I would have preferred slightly larger portions of this too but I understand that the cost of halibut has gone through the roof. The Cost is $14.99 for fish and chips and 15.99 for fish with a salad, (wife had Greek salad). The bacon cheeseburger my son said was yummy as well. I would highly recommend them to anybody who is in the area of Newmarket. They are very friendly and really work hard to make their guests feel welcome and appreciated. Thank you for the great food and the great service. We will be back when we are back in the area. read more

The Big Catch - Halibut fish and chips 2 piece. - Fish & Chips Near Me - Newmarket, Ontario

I love fish and chips and recently moved to Newmarket so was excited to try the big catch. I got more excited when I found out they had a deal that includes 2 pieces of fish. Wasn't I disappointed when I got home and readied that 2 pieces of fish was actually only 1 piece cut in half. Life seriously? I ordered halibut and the fish was ok but very dry and tasted fishy. The cashier wasn't very friendly so all in all it was a bad experience, I probably won't go back. read more

Great little family run shop. The owners are super friendly and the food is delicious. Went with my bf and we got the 2 piece haddock fish and chips combo for $25 bucks. Fish was nice and crispy and chips were golden brown and fluffy. Service was quick so it was great for us as we were on our way up north for camping. read more

We love this place. Often coming twice a month. We enjoy the Haddock, Halibut and especially when they have the Cod (special item). The coleslaw is delicious and the fries are crisp. Service: from the people that take your order to the people making your food, AMAZING. So friendly. Portions: Generous size, Dinner size is more than enough to fill you up. We never leave hungry! read more

Food is great but chef has a huge dandruff problem. Made great food difficult to eat. I hope he reads this and starts wearing a hat or something. read more

The best I've had! I love The Big Catch for my fish and chips .... mmmmmm so so good. I highly recommend, and the new gravy is amazing !!! Enjoy !!! read more

This used to be my families GO-TO place for fish and chips. Unfortunately that has changed. This place came under new management a couple years back. They are always friendly and like to chat you up! Which is very refreshing to see! The fish is is great but the chips...terrible. I don't know if they are using oil from all week or what but they always come out dry and stale. Although they do give you big portions and you won't leave hungry. I do love their fish and coleslaw...I will not be back for a while. The whole chips situation has really got my family reconsidering this place. Although that is our personal opinion, others might find the chips fine. There is no reason to give this place any bad reviews in my eyes. They are simply great! I might come back in the future to try out the chips again. Who knows, they might get better. read more

Although I do find the food good here, the service is absolutely horrible. I asked for extra tartar sauce with my meal and the cashier was extremely rude with me. She told me that she's going to just give me 2 and that I have to be ok with it. I was appalled at how she spoke to me and how rude she was. I don't think I will be going back there and it's all because of the service. read more

I specifically asked yesterday if the tartar sauce was made in house, the lady said yes. I come home to find just 2 plastic packets of tartar sauce. 1. why don't they make their own. 2. why do they lie about it. 3. why do I only get 2 packets of the cheap packets? the food was good, but I'm not a fan of being lied to. I took a picture to share, but I can't add pics here for some reason. Basically I got the cheap white and green packets. read more

I thought I'd try something different tonight and go with fish and chips. The restaurant is clean and friendly. I ordered the two piece halibut and chips with a side of coleslaw to go, I think the bill was ~$13. The fish was ok but small portions, I received a small container of cheese curds instead of coleslaw so I can't comment on that, and the most disappointing thing was the bland chips. The chips were a thick cut and in no way crispy or anything to brag about. The tartar sauce was from a packet and I got vinegar included but no salt. Overall a very mediocre meal that was not enough for me to come back for more. $13 can be spent better somewhere else. read more

Fish and chips were very brown like oil hadn't been changed in awhile. My 4 year old even refused to eat because it looked funny. Not a dedicated fish and chips restaurant, oil is used to fry many things so not that clean taste of a old school dedicated place. read more

Wonderful... Friendly service, homemade chips, and a nice thick piece of halibut with a light crispy crust. Restaurant and washrooms were clean and tidy as well. read more

I can not even express my feelings towards this place. I have ate at this restaurant multiple times because I personally love fish and chips and it is the only place near me. Every single time I walk in, I hope it can redeem itself but it does not. It is run by a husband and a wife, and the amount of times the wife has walked up to me and touched my face with her greasy hands saying "sweetie, how is the food?" It drives me insane. I have never seen them wash their hands once but what I did see was the wife never washing the ketchup bottles and putting in ketchup in from a bucket, but wait there's more! She sometimes spills it on the side and scoops it right back up with her...HANDS. I found flies in the vinegar bottle which I brought to her attention, although I doubt she did anything about it. The gravy is not real gravy...it's powder, and they charge 2 dollars extra for it. I have witnessed the husband and wife both touch my food with their bare hands and put my fries and fish in the box, nobody wears a hairnet and there's a little bit of sprite in the cup of ice that the they hand to me. read more

Found this place online and took a chance. We were very surprised. It's a hidden gem. Fish was awesome and service was amazing. Very friendly and my new only place for fish read more

Amazing British Style Fish and Chips ! Must Go Here! Friendly Staff and a Great Atmosphere! read more

Great service, great food, great prices. What else could you want in a neighbourhood restaurant?

Fish was good but not as good as the old owners made it. Fries are actually really bad. Coleslaw is average. I won't go back.

This place is totally recommended if you're a fan of French fries, fish and chips and poutein. Their French fries are crispy, delicious and big in each of them, pouteins are even more delicious with the sauce and cheese. I haven't tried their fish and chips yet but rumours said it's great! The only thing I didn't like about this place is that it is overly priced, high schoolers couldn't afford it for their lunch most of the time. read more

Great fish & chips! Best in the neighbourhood. Staff are very friendly. Restaurant is nice and clean.

went to big catch for the first time the other day, the food is very good.I ordered the crispy chicken burger, bacon & cheese burger, deep fried halibut x2.I used take out because I was bringing it home for my families dinner and we have to say the food an service is delicious.It is under new ownership once again, but the new owners are really nice, the cashier confused my order of a combo that did not come with drinks so she gave them to me for free. The place is really empty but I know exactly why.My order came to $50!The place is really good but pretty expensive read more

Called in my take out order Thurs-before good Fri - to ensure order of Haddock was taken. They said to pick it up before 3 on Fri. I called then at 2:30 Fri and said My husband was on his way to pick up the order . She said it would be ready and hung up on me. My husband got there and was told the order wasn't ready and they had ran out of Haddock- Had to buy the other more expensive fish and wait for it. Then when we got it home, half the fries were burnt and not edible. Won't go back. read more
