    Great East coast fish and chips sitting by the cliffs in Bancroft.

    It's a very simple place with folding chairs and plastic floral table cloths. What makes it a 5 is  *not* the decor. It is the warmth of the service and the food. The fish was perfectly cooked but not greasy.  Fixings are on the table so if you love tartar sauce? Help yourself

    My husband and I were craving some tasty fish and chips and decided to stop for lunch before heading home.  We saw fresh pickerel on the menu but instead chose the tender Halibut and local Ontario spuds with their homemade coleslaw and original tartar sauce. The generous and down-to-earth owner served us personally. She tended to my husband's halibut with such care, it was obvious she loved her job. While the food was great, their restaurant was a tad quaint, although this was definitely part of the charm. We picnicked behind the restaurant, admiring their beautiful view of York River. The fresh fish was expertly fried, and the hand-cut french fries were so good that we fought over them like kids.

    Best Clam Chowder in a 100 km radius.

    The clams were huge and the size of my thumb.

    We went here for lunch with friends and their kids. The kids enjoyed the kid special of halibites. The atmosphere is relaxed and family friendly. The fish was delicious and fresh.

    Would definitely make a special trip in if I am ever close.

    What a nice little surprise! We had stayed in Whitney ON and were driving back to Toronto - needed a place for an early dinner.

    Thank  you  Yelpers

    We discovered this lovely, informal/casual fish & chips place and it was so nice!

    The fish was awesome. Very fresh, meaty, juicy halibut with a light but crispy batter. Exactly how it should be. The fries were great and we had a starter clam chowder that was excellent!

    This place doesn't serve alcohol for those of you who love a cold beer with your f&c.

    But the service was quick & friendly - we would recommend it to anyone.

    I've been to Bancroft a handful of times before but this is the first time we decided to stop by the fish and chip restaurant and it the best choice! The fish was cooked perfectly. Loved the batter, it was flaky and easy to break apart. We ordered the halibut seafood platter and it was so delicious! Large portion perfect for two people. They just had whitefish in their store now, not the freshwater kind but the one from South Africa, next time we pass by Bancroft we are definitely going to come back and have our fish and chip fixings!!

    The building is super cute and even has a small door for the kids to walk through! Inside is beautiful decorated just like a cottage :)

    Staff are so nice and friendly and it was the owner (Diane)'s birthday today so we sang her happy birthday :) love the community up here!

    If you want a good place to eat during your pitstop or during your stay in or near Bancroft I would definitely recommend this place!
