I last reviewed Acadian Fish and Chips in 2014, which, living on the peninsula without a car at the time, required bumming a ride. Nowadays, I road trip everywhere with The Side Dish, but we still haven’t had a reason to go to Hammonds Plains. Well, she recently had to go out that way for work, so I hopped in […]
My quest continues for the best fish and chips in downtown Halifax. I’ve already reviewed the Resolutes Club, Henry House, Durty Nelly’s, the Gahan House and The Old Triangle. I did all of these in succession, over the course of 3 days, ending with today’s review of The Brown Hound. (I will continue my search shortly, as I still need to review The Lower […]
I’m well on my way into my fish and chips adventures in downtown Halifax. I’m trying to find the best fish and chips at a Halifax pub, and I’ve already covered Resolutes Club, Henry House, and Durty Nelly’s. The Gahan House is a P.E.I.-based brew pub, with locations in Charlottetown, Saint John, Fredericton, Moncton and Halifax. It started out as […]
I am continuing my search for the best fish and chips in downtown Halifax, focusing on pubs for now, because lord knows we love our pubs here in Nova Scotia. My last post featured a tasty, no frills fish and chips for less than $10 from the Resolutes Club. That same day, I decided to walk down from Inglis St. […]
The weather is warming up and that means it’s fish and chips season! I got fish and chips on my mind, and a plan of attack. You see, it occurred to me that tourists typically wander around downtown Halifax looking for seafood delights. We set traps for them, mostly along the waterfront, and rake in the profits hook, line and […]
Katch Seafood Scotia Square Mall (and other locations) Rating: Meh/Good (Rating Scale: WTF, Meh, Good, Some Good, Right Some Good!) I reviewed The Battered Fish back in 2013, but since then (last year, to be precise) The Battered Fish was bought by Pizza Girls who rebranded it to Katch Seafood. There are several locations (Waterfront, Pizza Corner, Scotia Square, Halifax […]
Fredie’s Fantastic Fish House 8 Oland Crescent (Bayer’s Lake) Rating: Good/Some Good (Rating Scale: WTF, Meh, Good, Some Good, Right Some Good!) I originally reviewed Fredie’s Fantastic Fish House in 2014, at which time I declared: “Okay… so this might be the best fish ‘n’ chips I’ve ever had”. Since then, I’ve largely considered it to be some of the best fish […]
Sydelle’s Fish and Chips 733 Rocky Lake Drive, Bedford Rating: Right Some Good! (Rating Scale: WTF, Meh, Good, Some Good, Right Some Good!) I originally reviewed Sydelle’s back in 2015, at which time I was impressed with the quality and value. I’ve eaten a lot of fish ‘n chips since 2015, and I feel that I am now a better […]
I recently wrote a piece for The Coast’s Hot Summer Guide about some of the best places to eat fish and chips in the sun. One of my suggestions was Fisherman’s Cove, since it satisfies my check list: Beach boardwalk? Check. Quaint fishing village? Check. Fish and chips eatery with a loyal following? More than one! I mistakenly mentioned Gordy’s […]
King Street Fish and Chips 59 King St, Dartmouth, NS Rating: Some Good! (Rating Scale: WTF, Meh, Good, Some Good, Right Some Good!) I recently wrote a piece for The Coast’s Hot Summer Guide: “Batter Up: 7 Spots to Eat Fish ‘n Chips in the Sun“. I was pretty confident with my list, except for the embarrassing realization that I […]
