Captain George’s Fish and Chips

Had lunch with my wife. Fish was great. Chips seemed reheated and not fresh. Overall, a good fish and chips.

Good was just okay. Fries weren’t hot and the portions were a bit skimpy. The coleslaw was good though.

Delicious fish and chips. We usually get take out fish and chips from there. Restaurant has been there for a while

I can be a curse coming from the UK. I grew up on excellent fish and chips wrapped in newspaper with a lovely picked onion as a bonus.
Captain’s doesn’t even get on the radar. The batter is bland, tasteless, and the fish, well I’ll leave that up to you do decide, for me it was terrible.
Certainly nowhere near, not even close to an authentic fish and chip experience.

No stars I had the worst experience ever, the fish tasted like jerky paper thin even a knife couldn’t cut it than worst of all they over charged our credit card $ 20 never gave a receipt. Don’t let a senior pick up food they may try to charge you extra!!! For disgusting food. Terrible customer service. I will never eat there again.

Love this place. I alway get the fish with shrimp and sweet potato fries. While the fries are ok, the fish/​shrimp itself is amazing. The batter they use for the fish is light and flaky, not greasy like a lot of places. And the serving sizes are fairly decent. I’m always stuffed after a meal.

Really, really great place.
It is family run and it really shows. You can tell that this place is frequented by regular customers who come here for the great food and the friendly service.
I don’t even really like fish but this fish is phenomenal! It melts in your mouth, the batter is so delicious! Before eating there I hadn’t even liked tartar sauce but I have been converted!
Really worth it to stop in here for lunch. They have take-​out as well as sit down but take-​out may be the best option as it is not a big restaurant and is often pretty busy since one large group pretty much takes up the whole place.

This is a perfect example of east doing west food good. The outside and interior décor of this stand alone store looked traditional British, so I was surprised that the cook and cashier were both Asian. At 2pm on a Sunday, this place was not quiet! We ordered a Captain George’s Special to share. The order was made to order, and we got it fresh off the fryer. The halibut fish fillets was fried light and crisp. The batter was not too thick. The onion rings and fries were fresh and fried nicely, too. The fried shrimps and scallops were average. The only complaint was the tiny cup of tartar sauce that came with the order. They gave us 2 additional cups free of charge upon request.
The services was friendly. The place was clean and well lighted with natural light.

Stopped in here while driving aimlessly for a spot to eat, decided to try this mom’n’pop style fish and chips spot
I actually can’t remember the last time I had fish and chips before this, but it wasn’t too impressive. I mean, it tasted good, the service was good, the restaurant was old school but decent… but nothing blew my mind. Maybe fish and chips just isn’t my thing.

I live in Montréal now but when I went to visit home in Toronto, I drove the 40 minutes to eat here (so that I could introduce it to my boyfriend because he argued that nothing could be better than fish and chips in BC, he admitted that he was wrong!) because it’s THE BEST fish and chips I’ve ever had! I’ve had fish and chips in Victoria and this is still better! I with they would open a location that it more south and accessible to people from Toronto or even Markham because everyone who I’ve introduced to this place has to drive all the way to Stouffvile to satisfy their craving. I get the halibut always, the fish is obviously better in BC but the batter is what makes this taste sooooooo much better! It’s perfect and unnaturally crispy and light and flaky and not heavy or oily. I want some now! Too bad it’s 540 km away from me :(

This is absolutely the best fish and chips in the area. As noted by other reviewers, they are a little sparse on the tarter sauce but are happy to bring more if asked. I normally get the Greek salad which is exceptionally good. Portions are large. Prices are reasonable. Décor is middle of the road. Staff can be hit or miss but the owners do get to know the regulars and can be quite accommodating.

Pretty good place, but (just my point of view) I don’t see anything special. the fish was tasty (got a halibut) and the fries were good.
by default everything on the plate is «Gold» nothing green, that destroyed the plate (visually talking).
the price I think was fair, the taste of the fish was excellent but just don’t see myself coming back after a while. or unless I REALLY REALLY REALLY FEEL LIKE DEEP FRY FISH

Haddock had nice crispy batter, albeit a bit greasy for fish as well as chips and onion rings. A bit dark as well, perhaps oil was old as it was near closing time. Service very friendly and it was a nice place.

Stopped in yesterday on our way back from the Stouffville farmer’s market. Located off the main street the place is a glass fronted box with a small parking lot. Inside it is themed in shades of ocean-​inspired blue with lots of sunny photographs of Greece. A few tables face sit against the glass windows looking out to the parking lot and the main street. There is a counter with a kitchen and all the cooking in the back. The menu is extensive and features a selection of fried and grilled fish and seafood options. The also feature sweet potato french fries, a welcome addition to any chip place. Our table ordered an assortment of dishes, including some fried clams, shrimp, cod, grilled fish and sweet potato french fries and everything arrived hot and delicious. The dishes are generous and what one would expect for the price. The batter is a light tempura like batter that is not heavy making for a delicious lunch. Recommended for anyone with a craving for fish and chips.

I have been to this resturant. The staff was very friendly. The portions are generous. The prices are fair. The décor is OK. If you are seeking fish and chips… this is a great place to go.

We have been driving from Scarborough/​Markham to Stouffville for 3 years solely for captain Georges Fish and Chips! We have tried a few of the popular fish and chip restaurants in the markham area however none compare to Cpt. Georges. Not only are the prices great, but also the fish and chips are tasty and prepared with fresh ingredients. We usually get the halibut family pack, with lots of fish and fries. The poutine here is mediocre. Service is great, very friendly staff. When you make a request/​order it is usually quickly acted upon.

I love fish ‘n’ chips but life hasn’t been the same since H. Salt Fish ‘n’ Chips pulled up stakes in Canada. Last couple times I’ve tried to go to a better fish ‘n chips place in Toronto, it’s packed. Asian burrito fusion joints take heed, fish ‘n’ chips is going to be the next big wave. Mark my words. Kickin’ it old school. Represent. Word to your tartar sauce. Wine vinegar is blood.
Anyway, my neighbor and I took a Sunday drive out to Stouffville to visit a house bound friend. We were delighted to find Captain George’s. Really friendly staff. Huge plate of fries, fish, and salad. Reasonable prices. Lots of parking. Nice clean restaurant with lots of natural lighting.
The only thing I can knock is your huge plate of fish ‘n’ chips comes with a little thimble of tartar sauce.

Phenomenal place. 8 fish and 2 chips for only $ 30. And tasty as can be!
