Order:Haddock and chipsThe plain batter was delicious! My friend got the Mrs Vicki's version which she loved as well. I will stick to classic. Just delicious. Wish the fish size was a bit bigger.Staff was so friendly and funny! Definitely will come back.

Overall taste of fish & chips was flavourful; however, the oil taste a bit old. It was a good deal for two filets and tons of fresh fries. Just a bit disappointed at the kale salad, portion was too small for $8 and the sunflower seeds were stale. Pretty cozy restaurant and kids friendly.

Was walking around with my friend trying to find something to eat and stay warm from the cold and decided to try Fresco's. I am so happy we stopped in and ate here. The food was delicious!! The owner was so sweet and kind to both me and my friend. He came over and asked us about the food and made sure we were happy. I wish I lived closer to eat here more often. 100% recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves great food :)**We both ordered the haddock and shrimp special.

After a bookstore near the ROM, we took a tram over to the iconic Kensington Market for dinner. After a few misses, we ended up at Fresco's Fish and Chips. The spacious casual restaurant was decorated like a Beatles fan club and smelled like a London chippy. We shared a sampler platter, fried pickles, crab cake, and everything was batter-covered deliciousness–particularly the shrimp.There was a discount for paying in cash, but we used card, which was half the reason we chose this place. Great place to rest and warm up with tasty fried food. We had an early dinner on chilly Friday evening in late February, had the place to ourselves, multiple pickup orders.

Cheap and cheerful fish and chips shop. The cod fish was made crisp and not too oily. The poutine was solid fill-your-belly fare, with pretty good cheese curds (for outside Quebec). Good classic rock music and ambience.

We were walking around the Kensington market, starving, we’re craving fish and chips. Lucky enough found this spot, and we were not disappointed. Super friendly staff and good vibes, GREAT choice of music, who doesn’t like to listen to Phil collins and Beatles at lunch, Beatles records and posters were everywhere. Pretty clean I’d say. They serve beer and Caesar. The food was pretty good. There’s an atm if you’re into paying cash. Over all good experiences!

A great fish & chips shop in the heart of Kensington Market! My dad and I popped in for a late lunch, and we ordered the cod and the haddock + chips (they were sold out of the halibut) and both were excellent (washed down with a classic Coke, and cold Corona). Batter was noteworthy - crispy and light which was a great compliment to the fish - and cooked to perfection. We each tried one piece of fish with the “special crunchy coating,” which was more akin to a tempura batter and had crumbled kettle cooked chips in it for additional crunch. I’d say that’s a best-bet… it was very crunchy but not overkill at all (definitely ask for it!!!). The side slaw was creamy and tangy - they’re not reinventing the wheel on this one and I’m just fine with that (it was very good). Tartar sauce was tasty but frankly we enjoyed everything with a simple squeeze of lemon that accompanied the meals. Portion sizes are great, too - if you’re hungry the two pieces of fish and chips is sufficient, but I wasn’t starved so had half of the chips and one piece of fish, and my sweetheart gladly had my leftovers for dinner. Window seating is optimal to watch the colourful goings on of the neighbourhood (there’s also booths and tables inside and picnic tables outside… you could also take it to go and eat in the park across the street if that’s your jam). Another pair of diners were splitting the calamari and chips and it looked very good - I’d try it next time.The man working the counter I’d assume was the owner and he was lovely, welcoming, and helpful - the kinda person you’d imagine running the local chip shop. There was a steady stream of people coming in and out for food and he knew most of the folks (and they knew him) and it was the kinda vibe that makes you want to return over and over. And if you need a selfie before you leave, pose with the Beatles mural or memorabilia on all the walls - a real nod to UK Beatlemania.

Best fish in the city! A destination spot. Get the kale salad and 2 piece haddock.

Hands down my favorite fish & chips spot in Toronto, absolutely delicious. Their onion rings were also amazing and that’s not even my usual choice. Don’t forget to ask your fish “miss vickie’s extra crispy”! I love the old dining style and it’s just in the entrance of Kensington, where the fun is. Love it!
