Skipper's Fish and Chips: Reviews & Ratings

I wanted to stop at a chip truck and saw these amazing reviews. I initially wanted the fish and chips but it seems they dont have it anymore. I paid 14 dollars for my shrimp and chips and that includes tax. It was delicious! My husband who is so picky about shrimp loved them too! I highly recommend. It came with seafood sauce and tartar and lots of fries! They also have kawartha ice cream as well as milk shakes and a variety of pop. I ordered take out and it was nicely wrapped.

Their poutines, mozza sticks and jalapeno poppers are delicious. Great and friendly service. Highly recommend this (CASH ONLY) spot!

Classic fish and chips this tiny take-out spot is worth checking out—just come prepared! The fish is fresh, but not as crispy as i generally like it. The fries were generous and stuff into the box tightly. It’s the kind of simple, delicious comfort food that hits the spot. But here’s the catch: prices are on the high side, but not completely unreasonable at $16 for 2 filets and chips. Unfortunately, it’s *cash only*. In 2025, that’s a bit inconvenient, so hit the ATM first (which the one located nearby the gas station happen to be out of order when we went). Overall, recommended but set your expectations.

Stopped by on the way back to Toronto. Got the halibut fish and chips. Made on the spot when we ordered and was great. Fish wasn’t over cooked and was still flakey. Fries were very crispy. There’s a few picnic tables around the side if you wanna get out of your car for a stretch. Would definitely go back!

Been told about this place multiple of times and how good their fish and chips are. Always made fresh/super crispy and generous with the portions then good dipping sauce. Honestly not disappointed at all. If driving by and looking for a really good place for fish and chips definitely the place. In the top 3 places I’ve had fish and chips.
