Eating Fish N Chips here was awesome. Cooked big wildly caught fish here was delicious. The fried shrimp was also good. It was hard to feed my girlfriend here because she is not a big fan of fried foods, but I manage to find her something good. Service was good, and chips were huge and delicious. Service was good. I will most likely visit again. read more

I've been meaning to try this place for awhile and finally got my chance as i had a medical apt close by. I went in and ordered 2pc snapper and chips. Once my order was completed I found a seat and started to eat. The seating area is limited and if various options, a couple tables here and there and a counter by the window. The fish was crispy and nicely battered and chips were decent. Fish size was again decent i wouldn't say the largest nor small but regular in size to decent fish and chip places. Overall nice, I think strong decent fish and chip place but imo overhyped. It's not bad but nothing mind read more

I was so excited to order our food as I watched the restaurant was trending on TikTok however when the food was delivered, everything was soggy, the fries and fish. Very disappointed! I would recommend better packaging containers. read more

I visited here on August 1st on Friday to use up my gift card. I didn't get a chance to go when they were closed. I ordered an Oyster Po Boy, fries and a drink which came to total of $27.10. It was messy to eat Po Boy, but that wasn't an issue. Baguette was so crunchy on the outside it was perfect! There was some arugula, kimchi and 3 pcs of oysters in it. I also ordered fries it was huge! Fries were bit salty and overcooked I tossed it out in the end. I left my water and soda to drink them later after heading to washroom. Staff cleared my water and soda away. I still had half of soda in it. I felt thirsty after eating my food in the end. It'd have been nice if she asked me first before clearing dishes. I don't think I'll go back. read more

Tasty fish & chips place on Main near 22nd. This place also sells fresh (frozen) and refrigerated seafood. Parking is available on the side streets. The inside does look like either the inside of a boat or a marina, with the rustic wood panels. Staff are friendly. No complaints. Pricing is a bit high, but this is the W side after all. I had the salmon fish & chips. The salmon batter was a bit thick, but crispy and juicy. Fish seemed okay. Nice large portion of fries, which is good for filling up. Comes with coleslaw and tartar sauce. The coleslaw is a bit light on the dressing, but still tasted okay. My buddy had the fish burger and enjoyed it. They also have other items such as oyster sandwiches, as well as wraps and tacos. Not a bad place to check out, but be prepared to shell out a few bucks more. read more

A couple of weeks ago I visited the fish counter on a rainy weekend. I was craving for some delicious fish and chips - I remember going to the fish counter years ago where I knew the fries would be perfectly crispy and the fish would be fresh. I was SOOOOO disappointed with my meal because it didn't live up to my expectations. The staff were super friendly and I was the only customer there-I was waiting for my fish and chips patiently, as I knew my order was going to be made fresh. I didn't think I would have to ask for my chips to be extra crispy as I remembered their fries being the benchmark for how perfectly hand cut fries should be done. I was proven so wrong that day. I know the chips I had were fresh as I saw them being prepared. I fully expected my meal to hold its crispiness when I took it home (which was about 10 minutes away). The fries were limp, borderline undercooked, not crispy at all. In photos it looks decent but it missed its trademark super crispy on the outside and pillowy soft in the inside (usually this is done when the cute fries are frozen and then fried). This was a huge disappointment as I was looking forward to the chips-even more than the fish itself. What happened to this place? I was so disappointed that it was hard to enjoy the rest of my meal. The deep fried oysters were fine and the fried fish was just okay, the batter felt a bit greasy. I really want to go back again to see if I was just unlucky and the person didn't leave the fries in long enough. Because I don't want to drive all the way to Steveston to have a proper fish & chips. read more

Probably some of the best fish and chips I've had!! The cod was flakey and fresh, the frying oil was recently changed so it didn't have a bitter taste at all, and the fries were ultra crispy. I also loved their house made tartar sauce to dunk everything into. The fish and chips is quite a large portion so depending on how hungry you are you might only need one fried fish per person. I surprisingly loved the cabbage salad they give you to also help cut through all the greasiness of the rest of the meal. read more

We went to see a matinee at the Viff during the International Film Festival and it's almost 3 pm afterwards so decided to pop into Fish Counter. This is the first time we visited since they changed ownership a couple of years ago. We ordered the 2pc cod/chips and 1pc oyster. The Cod--not dried out yet not moist at all, fish not seasoned at all, it was flavourless. Plus I was given 3 long strips of thin cut fish trimmings! The Batter--thick not light as it should be, soaked in so much grease that it overpowers the delicate flavour of white fish. The Oyster--taste fresh except for the oily heavy batter The Chips--uneven slices, some stuck together, taste ok If your palette prefer greasy oily battered fish, then you will enjoy it! I was quite hungry, forgot about pictures. My stomach felt really queasy and nauseated after all that grease so I will not go again until they change ownership again:-) read more

It is always interesting to go to a place for the first time. There is a full menu of lunch options and choosing just one can be interesting. It was really quite nice. Not a five-star dining establishment but a "down to earth" place to get good seafood either to take home and cook from their real "fish counter" (not us this trip but I suspect quite a few locals do this) or to eat at their counters or shared tables (also seemed like neighborhood locals). Fish and chips seems to be their specialty but we ended up splitting a crab/shrimp croquette sandwich (with fries for us Americans) which was exactly what we wanted in a light lunch before walking in Queen Elizabeth Park. I didn't love the pickled cabbage that was in the baguette but it certainly wasn't bad and the slaw on the side was delicious. We will definitely return to try something else. And the big bonus for us turned out to be one the few shelf staples they carry with a seafood connections. One of our goals for this particular trip to Canada was to replenish our supply of Maille Dijon mustard that can be difficult (or more correctly expensive) sometimes to source in the US. After striking out at the Costco in Richmond (definitely not a place to go on a Saturday) we were happily surprised to seeing several 800 ml jars of it (we bought two) for a very reasonable price. read more

Amazing fish and chips, seriously one of the best we've had and we are spoiled in WA for good seafood. The batter was thin and crispy, there were nice big pieces of fish and the tartar sauce was delicious. We also tried the diary free clam chowder, it's different, more like potato soup with clams, but still really good. Service was excellent and they even got a couple of counter seats and 1 large table. You can also buy fresh fish at the counter if you like. read more

Solid fish and chips with gluten free option (that had a dedicated fryer). Fast service and enough seating to find a spot even with it being busy-ish. Couldn't put my finger on why, but it wasn't a 5/5 in the flavor category. Definitely worth a stop if nearby. read more

My first impression of this place was the appeal of their rustic decor. Both the food and the service were great. The menu has a good amount of options. I ordered a small amount of three items I wanted to try. I ordered the dairy-free chowder, oyster fritters and fish tacos. I enjoyed the fritters and tacos the most. I also tried some of my friend's fish and chips and the portions were very generous. I would recommend this place for fish and chip lovers. read more

I visited the fish counter on a Friday evening in search of some gluten free fish and chips, and wow they did not disappoint. The batter was comparable to a tempura style batter - very light and crispy. The tartar sauce was also very flavourful! From the time we ordered until we received our food was about 5 minutes even though there were other people in the shop. They were super fast in getting our order to us! There is one large table and some high top seats that face outside, so plenty of seating to choose from. I'm excited to come back and try some of the other fish or even the lox that they had - yum! read more

I was in Vancouver for a little bit of time, which was unfortunate because there are so many tasty food options to choose from. I opted to get some fish and chips from The Fish Counter. There were several fish to choose from, but I went with a two-piece of the Pacific cod. The fish was delicious and crispy. The breading was not overwhelming. I hope to return and try their other items. There are metered street parking. I found a small metered parking lot not far of a walk from the restaurant. read more

My new favorite chippy in Vancouver! Sort of a chip shop with fish market all in one. This undoubtedly makes for really fresh fried fish and seafood stews! Two cod + halibut fish and chips: I like that you can randomly (for a price) add on an extra piece of fried fish to your order if you are hungry or indecisive. I don't usually like frie Halibut as it can come our a bit dry and chalky. This was decidedly not that! Very tasty and so fresh! The only downside would be the fries which were not as exceptional compared to the fish. Maybe next time just get the fish! Fried oysters: they sell them individually. Too huge to be eaten raw but quite good fried up! Again the freshness cannot be over stated Crab and shrimp cake baguette sandwich: nice little sandwich for a snack! The side of cole slaw was a nice counterbalance to all the fried things. I ordered so much I couldn't finish this. Bouillabaisse: this was also very excellent! Rich mixed seafood stew with clams, mussels, halibut, cod and salmon. Great use of the odds and ends from fish trimmings. So good and filling! The market is also full of great things to pick up like a variety of pickled seafood and kimchi. I picked up some small batch cabbage kimchi which was bursting with fermentation bubbles when i popped the top off. Its the real deal! read more

The fish and chips were amazing 10 on 10 . I liked that the fish was sustainably caught and they were able to fry any fish - salmon/ halibut or cod. We enjoyed the halibut. The salad could have been better. read more

Delicious fish and chips! Got the cod. They also have an a yummy saffron aoli. Would recommend

This place is amazing! There's clear signage to direct traffic in and out of the restaurant. The staff here are wonderful, they managed my allergy related questions well. My son has a peanut and wheat allergy and they were patient and answered my questions. The fries are always gluten free and they can make gluten free fish and chips. I highly recommend, often times I find a gluten free spot the mix is weird (gummy or falls apart). The gluten free battered chips were so crispy with huge chunks of fish! There's a self serve bar of sauces, if you dine in utensils and water are provided by the counter top where you will pick up your order. Highly recommended! read more

A cute store with windowside seating and great fish and chips! The fish is perfectly crisp and this place is on the cheaper end and far better than the fish and chips near the downtown vancouver and granville area. read more

It's a Friday (a lenten Friday) and I was on the hunt for seafood. Thank goodness the FIsh Counter popped up because I was losing hope. I ordered 2 shrimp and crab baguettes over the phone and it was easy & seamless. I came to pick them up and was on my way back to Seattle with 2 yummy sandwiches in hand. My husband could not stop raving about this sandwich. When he can't stop talking about a dish/meal then you know it was THAT GOOD. The slaw was nice and crisp laced with celery seeds. The shrimp and crab patty was pan fried to perfection. Not a lot of breading and was filled with seafood. The bread was the perfect compliment to the patties + veggies. 10/10 recommend. Also, the price was a steal of a deal! It was only 15$??? Please don't increase the price after my review :) We will definitely be back! I told my foodie siblings about you guys so don't disappoint ok ty xx read more

This little counter serves up the best fish and chips in the mount pleasant area ! We ordered two pieces of Cod - fresh, crispy fries and fish. Very large pieces of fish. Order is enough to share between two. Clam chowder - it's vegan ... so it's not something I'm used to. I like and is used to creamy clam chowder. My partner ended up eating it because 3/4 of us refused to eat it. Crab and shrimp sandwich - bread is soft and crusty. Too much filler IMO. but the Pattie's were not soggy so it worked out. The tarter sauce is soooooo good, that we order 6 sides of it. Every bite with the tarter sauce makes it so good!!! The tarter sauce Stole the show read more

This is a casual Neighbourhood spot selling fish and seafood to cook at home, as well as a restaurant side with some of the most succulent fish and chips!

There's communal dining as well as high top stools. On my list to visit again! read more

Highly recommend this place for fish & chips! Great staff, I've came here a handful of times and never disappoints when it comes to the good ol fish n chips! What we got this time: * 2 Cod Fish & Chips * Non Dairy Clam Chowder Their Fish and chips are always great, fresh fish, crispy batter and their homemade chips and slaw are always such nice compliments to the whole thing! As for the Clam Chowder, I DO NOT RECOMMEND. It was quite bland, I tried to add some salt to give it a boost of flavour but it was just a bowl of bland clams. So please just get the fish and chips and your visit will be Great!! read more

THE BEST halibut fish and chips ever!! And I went on a fish and chips binge between Vancouver island and Vancouver the city so I know!!! First of all, it's a walk up counter situation with very minimal seating. I was lucky enough to get 4 seats at the counter top for my group. We noticed that there was fried salmon but we asked the staff and they said they would be able to grill us some salmon if we wanted. The staff are incredible. Very friendly and knowledgeable (Talked to my bf and his dad about salmon for 15 mins I swear). As we were walking away (about a block away) one of the staff members ran out to say bye to us. How sweet is that?! Love this place and can't recommend it enough!! read more

Been a while since we last visited The Fish Counter -- with the pandemic, they only let one person at a time for retail and food and they have markings on the floor to maintain proper distance. We called ahead for pick-up ai we didn't have to wait too long for our orders to come out on Father's day. We ordered the following: gluten free ling cod fish and chips for me, 1 deep fried oyster, salmonito (salmon wrap) and a side of caesar salad. Loved my GF ling cod -- it was cooked perfectly and the batter was crisp yet light and gluten free to boot! Their tartar sauce and coleslaw were perfect accompaniments to the fish too. The fries were tasty but sad that I waited too long to eat em as they became cold (my fault coz we had to drive to Queen E for a picnic). The oyster was huge and yummy but they don't offer a GF version for this but delicious nonetheless. The hubby scarfed down his salmonito and caesar salad. Lets all continue to support local small businesses and I can't wait to go back to The Fish Counter again. read more

I suggest you go to The Fish Counter, don't wonder if you should try it, just go. I had the razor backs and was sad when I finished them. I finished all of them. Perfectly cooked and flavorful.

I was looking for a seafood place near my Airbnb and The Fish Counter stood out so I popped in. It's a super casual place where you can order hot food, and order fresh fish/seafood at a separate counter. I tried the crab and shrimp sandwich which was hot, fresh, and delicious. It came with a tasty coleslaw. Service was friendly, and my food was ready fast. What more can you ask for?! read more
