St. Andrews Fish & Chips - Scarborough, Ontario

I had this place saved in my want to go list for the longest and what a disappointment when I finally got a chance to stop by. I got the halibut and chips. The portion was way small on this little plate. Paper thin no flavour, fries were below average. ... That was almost $30. The place is small and clean, service was good but overall very unimpressed. Unfortunately this first impression will probably lead me not to return. Read more

My wife and I decided to come and give St. Andrews a try. We both had never been here before, but we both love fish and chips and we knew of them by the reputation from others in the Scarborough area. Everyone had always said great things about their food, ... so we made the trip and we were not disappointed that we did. This place is set up in a very smart fashion. I was impressed by the simple set up of a takeout window on your way into the restaurant. This is not a common thing anymore and works well for pickups by food delivery companies and call ins or if you just want to get it on the go. The interior was nicely done and felt comfortable, with staff being very friendly and welcoming. We both ordered Halibut and Chips as that is our favorite and they did a great job with it. The fish was cooked perfectly and was very tender with the batter crispy and fried just right. The chips were fresh cut which is a huge plus, as a lot of places just don’t take the time to do this and the difference is night and day. The whole meal hit the spot and both of us felt completely satisfied by what we just ate. This place totally lives up to the hype and we both would recommend to anyone looking for great fish and chips, to swing by and give them a try….. You won’t be disappointed you did. We will definitely be back. Read more

I've been going here since I was a young kid and the quality of the food has not changed over the years. Large portions, fresh fish that is perfectly cooked, golden and tender and loads of delicious chips. My brother and I always loved getting the deep fried mars bar ... to finish and of course gazing around the restaurant at the interesting Scottish memorabilia. This family owned and operated business is a vital institution to the neighborhood and Toronto! Come out and support this family owned local business for a meal you definitely won't forget.

Great old school fish n chips restaurant!! Friendly staff, excellent eats. Had both the halibut and cod, can't go wrong with either option.

My photo does not do any justice to how generous their portion sizes are. This has been a true gem in our neighbourhood. And our go-to for the past decade for true fish and chips. Their batter is so spot-on, crunchy and so satisfying. And their chips are hefty chips, ... soft inside and nice and crunchy on the outside. We always order the haddock and chips and the clam chowder. Take out also because we live close by. Even if we have it delivered, it still comes as good as if we ate there. Always worth our money. 👍🏼 Read more
