    Just had the worst meal ever!!! Had the fish and chips and there was more batter than fish and the oil was just pouring out of it onto my fries and plate. Way too greasy!!! My wife ordered chicken fingers and they looked nothing like the pictures on the website. The chicken fingers looked like the Janes box food. Beer was cold though. Service wasn't good either and the food took way to long to come to the table

    Unbelievable Lack of Customer Service After suggesting Chip and Charlie’s to my friends as part of our girl’s weekend activities, I found myself quickly regretting this recommendation. After reserving a table for 10, when we were seated, our server approached our table with impatience, disinterest and downright hostility. Instead of the expected greeting of “Hello” or “Welcome”, she promptly told us how busy she was, leaving us with a feeling that we were bothering her! She took our drink orders and when she came back and we asked if we could order our food, she told us she didn’t have time for that! Eventually she did take our food orders, but again with a great deal of impatience and was intolerant of any questions we had. Clearly, she didn’t want to serve us, so we then requested a change in server. The second server then came to the table and stated, “I guess I’m taking care of you now, but just so you know I am busy too”. I was floored at the attitudes and the lack of customer service. When we finally did get out food, our plates were dropped (not placed) on the table, which caused fries to slide off and land on the table. Needless to say, we didn’t stay and enjoy the band as planned. We certainly were not made to feel welcome! This is very unfortunate as it could have been a great evening for everyone. I strongly recommend that you find somewhere else to spend your hard-earned money. Somewhere that they appreciate your business. I know we will never go back.

    Giving a one-star review based solely on the rude servers. The food was decent, the band was good, even the other patrons were friendly. The servers were miserable, hostile, and angry that we wanted to order food and drinks. I’ve never seen anything like it. We had a reservation, so they knew we were coming. I was with a group of ladies intent on hanging out and having some drinks and enjoying the band. Instead, we left right after we ate because we did not feel welcome in this establishment. I understand being busy but being treated with disrespect is inexcusable. To the management of Chip and Charlies – please find servers that know how to treat customers and staff your busy nights appropriately.

    Funny story about this place. Arrived late on a saturday night to get food and a drink. It was uncomfortably busy so we picked a table way at the back by the stage so we could eat with some room and privacy. Moments before our food was brought out from the kitchen, a band showed up and started rockin' out turning our private table into front row and center concert seats and people were dancing around us while we ate ☠️😂 Food is exactly what I was expecting to get from a bar late night, so thanks for that! Good service even though very busy and the patrons were having a BLAST. Was my first time there, will remember that always. Cheers! P.S. the band was good!

    The food was great, they just took too long to bring it out. The wait was worth it though.

    Ordered fish and chips to split with my wife. $15 order comes with two large pieces of fish in a beer batter. We added a third piece of fish. Only food complaint was minimal as for three piece of fish we got one small 1.5 oz serving of tarter sauce. Asked for a second tarter and was charged $1. So person that orders one piece gets one tarter, person orders two pieces gets one tarter and person orders 3 pieces gets one tarter🤷‍♂️. Cindy was on point with service. She was very friendly and attentive. Pesky fly in restaurant wouldn’t leave us alone. A lot of locals so you know it’s good all the time. Family owned business away from the hustle of Fallsview area.

    We visited Chip & Charlie's on our recent trip to Niagara Falls. Shout out to Darcy, our server. It was our first time eating here and she said we won't be disappointed and she could not have been more right! Hands down the best fish n chips we have ever had! Great portion and great price. We can't wait to visit again to try other things on their menu.

    If you almost wanna for sure get the rona, hang out at this place on a Monday night. I used to go here about 15 years ago with people after work. Wow, has the clientele really taken a nose dive. I felt like half the ppl in here literally just got out of jail. I’m never stepping foot in this place again. And what’s with these “amazing” food reviews. Are you massively wasted? Up your standards.

    Absolutely disgusting. Ordered wings and fish and chips. After an hr and fifteen minutes food came. Wings were so small with no toping on them. was supposed to be garlic parm. Fish and chips was a soggy wet mess of greas and water. Had to ask for a drink 3 times. The waitresses never once checked if things were okay. As a regular in the falls I'll never make this mistake again. Not only that but there was a table by us that had a dog sitting in a chair and it wasn't a support dog...

    Been here for the first time. The food was really good especially the soup, the platter was varied and tasty. The draught options are good, it’s ice cold and good price. Good that the weather is awesome, you’d appreciate the outdoor seating.

    Great experience! First time here but I think, not the last! I can tell ya that the Monday soup special is "won ton". And the Wednesday soup special is "chicken noodle" and the food special is 'beef on a weck with fries, pickle and hot horseradish " Enjoyed the bartenders jokes!

    Came to Chip and Charlie's after a hot 18 holes of golf. The air-conditioning was cranked and the beers and drinks were cold. Went with 2 trays of pizza and 5 lbs of wings and both were fantastic. We happened to get to the bar around their shift change and all 3 waitresses that helped serve our table were fantastic, on point and very, very friendly. One of the owners even came by to say hello and he is a great man! Defiantly recommend!

    Our hotel across the street recommended, late dinner about 10pm. All the food was great! Had BLT with generous amount of bacon, fish dinner with sweet potato fries and coleslaw. Batter was flavorful and light. 2 very large pieces of fish! Great service and clean bathrooms.

  • 5/5 Jacklynn M. 1 year ago on Google
    We went here tonight and it was great!! Food and service was awesome. Our hotel restaurant was closed so we were looking for something close. It ended up being the best meal we’ve had in Niagara Falls. We had escargot, nachos, salads, pizza, and the shrimp platter. It was my nephews birthday and they didn’t have dessert but the server went above and beyond by putting whip cream in a cup with birthday candles. I highly recommend it here.

  • 1/5 Bill M. 11 months ago on Google
    Decided to try this place due to reviews. I got takeaway fish’n chips weekday & it was pretty good. Nice batter, golden & crispy. Good fries. Went back Friday night & ordered same meal. It was horrible! THICK batter, fried to a very dark brown & very very greasy!!!Clearly they are cooking too much fish at a time or not letting oil hot enough before or between batches. Gross meal, wont go back there for anything now. I’m sorry i did not go to the best place in town for fish n’ chips (Lakeport Fish n’ chips). On the Saturday of the long weekend i did & they did a fantastic job in spite of how busy they were. Lightly battered, cooked perfectly, great fries…i’ll never go anywhere else again.

  • 5/5 Rush S. 9 months ago on Google
    Definitely fish and chips is the best and price is reasonable. I went there on Friday and enjoyed the concert too.. the place and clean and hygiene. Staff are friendly and hospitable 😊 I am impressed by the new cutleries they have now. The band who was performing mesmerized all the guests there and they did put cherry on top to the atmosphere 🥰😍👍. I recommend everyone to at least go visit..

    Quiet bar, very relaxing atmosphere. They Had many screens playing US Sports. Lots of seating area so even though many people were there it was still nice and quiet.

  • 5/5 Andrew G. 3 months ago on Google New
    What is there to be said. Food is amazing. Portions are huge. Got the fish tacos and was blown away. The plate took up half the table. Highly recommend for those looking for somewhere away from the touristy area, where prices are more sensible and the food exceeds expectation.

  • 4/5 Chung Sze Y. 8 months ago on Google
    Ordered a 5-pc family combo, which is really value-for-money. The batter is crispy and the fish is flaky. The tartar sauce is great. Also ordered a dish of escargot, baked with a thick layer of cheese. In terms of flavor, I think they can add a little bit more of garlic and herbs. The meal cost a total of CAD58.41 (HST and tips included). Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Robert B. 6 months ago on Google
    First time we were ever there. It was a great evening. The service was excellent. Really enjoyed the wings but next time I'm having the fish and chips. Couldn't believe it but they used real French fries instead of frozen. I go to fish and chop stores and can't get real fries. We will definitely go back. My only complaint was the band paid the music too loud so much so that you couldn't talk.

  • 5/5 Jeff J. 10 months ago on Google
    We are big fans of Chip n Charlie's Eatery & Bar. My wife especially loves the Club House Sandwich. The fries are also delicious. Another surprise is the Escargots with a generous coating of melted cheese and garlic toast. Yummy. There are lots of beers on tap or by the bottle. Chip n Charlie's is a great roadhouse style restaurant with good service from a seasoned staff. As a bonus, a band started playing halfway through our recent Friday evening visit, playing some great 80's tunes. Enjoy!

    Great Service, Friendly and tentative staff. Plenty of TVs and a large project screen for your viewing pleasure. Good place to catch the game. Good food, good selections of brews with great prices. Free WiFi.

  • 4/5 Binita A. 11 months ago on Google
    Friendly staff. The music played was pretty cool as well. We went too late for food but don’t serve any fancy cocktails. If you want to go for some basic drinks and live music, then it is a great vibe.

  • 5/5 Tracy C. 2 years ago on Google
    Beer Battered Fish & Chips are amazing. Love the homemade coleslaw. My first choice for the Dusted Mild Wings

  • 5/5 Graham E. 1 year ago on Google

  • 4/5 Robert V. 1 year ago on Google
    Good. We ordered a lot of chicken wings, pizza and beer. Chicken wings really good tasty, crispy and fresh. Pizza was fine a little smaller then I thought. The service was very good and excellent atmosphere. If you haven't been their before I would recommend checking it out!

  • 4/5 mark d. 1 year ago on Google
    This restaurant is fine. The service though very friendly was a little on the slow side for not being overly busy. However on the good side the fish and chips were fantastic. The fish itself had big pieces and really good batter to fish ratio. The fries were perfect actually. I do recommend it.

  • 5/5 Tiffany H. 1 year ago on Google
    New to the area and this place is already on our top 3 pubs to go too. The wait staff are amazing and know our drinks before we even sit down. The food is really good and the vibe of the place is fun. Perfect for family's with kids, couples, large groups and singles. I feel very comfortable going there by myself when hubby has other plans. They have some great rotating music nights that appeal to everyone. A pub with close ties to the community and very well respected by locals. I can't wait until the patio opens!
