Chris Fish and Chips is located off 1st street right next door to Applewood Pizza. Parking is fairly easy to find, use the parking lot across the street. I've been to Chris Fish and Chips a number of times and the people that work there have always been friendly.

When you first walk in, they have the most visible menu I've ever seen. Easy to read, so don't bother picking up a paper menu. Prices are fair, very competitive for Fish N Chip with prices ranging from $5-10 a plate. Today's order was 1 piece fish and 5 piece shrimp.

Batter - Crunchy. Wasn't blown away with the batter..it is about average. It was quite the English style where the batter turns brown and has crispy flakes that fall off of it.

Fries - Thick steak fries..I like them

Fish - Taste like cod or snapper. Very white with no fishy taste. Good size portions for the price.

Chris Fish and Chips comes in with an average rating. If you want Fish and Chips for lunch, I'd have no problems recommending this place. They have 2 outdoor tables so you won't smell like deep fried fish...a definite plus in my book.

This was Jasons call and I was up for another Fish and Chips place so sounded good. I ordered the single fish and chips meal which came in under $5. It arrived quickly, which is a good thing if you are in a hurry at lunch. It tasted fresh but just kind of bland. The batter was pretty greasy yet didn't have the good taste I was hoping for. I slathered with a lot of tartar sauce which was decent but not in the same ballpark as The Bay Fish and Chips. The fries were unremarkable and I probably shouldn't have eaten as many as I did. The single order that I got actually came with 2 pieces of fish so the bang for the buck is good here. Will I return? If I am in the neighborhood. Otherwise, there are better places to be found.
