Old Vic Fish & Chips - Victoria, British Columbia

Great local restaurant. Staff were great despite the language barrier. Sad to see the place closing on January 28. The staff mentioned something about the possibility about opening up in another location. Stay tuned for updates. Fish and chips were great.

Interesting decor and big portions! Menu is slightly confusing as it serves both fish and chips and Chinese food. We ordered the combo for two with both fish, chips and prawns. Food is kinda bland, we had to add a lot of seasoning and the fish is kind of dry ... too. Not too impressed. Read more

Owners are super friendly and welcoming. Fish is solid. Chips are bang on. Now I'm super curious how delicious their Chinese food is. Two full halibuts means it needs a bit more tartar sauce. 😋

All I can say is... WOW!! My girlfriend and I visited while on holiday in Victoria. Based on the LOOK of the food in other review photos, I knew this place would be the real deal. After walking by the restaurant by accident, we marched in. Immediately, we were greeted ... by the very friendly lady of the house who let us sit wherever we liked. An enthusiastic "YES!" was the response when I asked if they carried Mushy Peas to go with our Fish N' Chips. That was a great sign right there. A few minutes later, a lovely presentation of a meal was delivered to our table with a smile. The food was SUPER FRESH (we were informed that it was still Halibut Season) and the chips were dynamite!!! If you like fresh food, with an authentic British style, along with a wonderful dining experience... Then go here, now!! Super happy we did, and I'm sure you will as well 😊 Read more

The spicy&beef noodle soups were amazing! Huge portions and lots of goodies in it. The restuarant is owned by nice Chinese couple who knows their food! The location is great to stop by when you were visiting downtown Victoria. Highly recommend!
