Fresco’s Fish & Chips

Haddock and fries were very good. Good portion of fish and fries for $19. Quick service.

I recently visited this charming establishment during a tour of Kensington Market. The place has a unique and interesting vibe, with Beatles posters adorning the walls, reflecting the owner's passion for the band. The staff was friendly, and the poutine was absolutely delicious. A delightful spot for Beatles fans and food lovers alike!

Great quality at a good price. As an east coaster, I can be pretty picky about a good Fish & Chips. I don't need anything too upscale–it's Fish & Chips, after all–but it can't be low quality either. This place strikes the perfect balance- a classic style fish and chips place with a good selection of fish options and good chips. It is my favorite fish & chips place in Toronto so far.

Great place to have a cold one with delicious thin light script battered fish. Reasonable price and a generous portion.

I should have known better. Never order poutine at a fish and chips place. Don't order 5 alarm poutine unless you can handle the heat. It was spicey but even so probably the worst that I have had in my visit to Canada. I tried some of the wife's that was regular and it was disappointing. Not flavorful. But, like I said, it was my fault. I should have ordered fish and chips.

This is a small shop in the heart of Kensington Market offering takeout, dine in as well as outdoor seating. Also the first Toronto restaurant that got the Ocean Wise seal of approval for offering sustainable seafood. Ordered the haddock and chips which came in a newspaper container and it was just right. Not too much batter but still crispy courtesy of crushed Miss Vickie's chips and no oily residue. It comes with a tartar sauce and coleslaw. The chips were perfectly fried and to our liking. We also tried their Po Boy sandwich but not a fan since I had the best in New Orleans. The wait time for order is reasonable and friendly staff. Worth trying if you're in the Kensington Market area.

One of the most terrific fish & chips places in the city! It’s cozy with lots of “the Beatles” posters & signages. The food is absolutely delicious! We ordered haddock & it was so fresh. The fries & tartar sauce were also great. The staff are so friendly & inviting! I love this place and highly recommend it 😍

High-quality fish and chips in kensington. A nice summer lunch spot. We really liked the cod and haddock fish n chips! The themed newspaper was a nice touch.

Fresco's been a solid rock to the community of Kensington for many of years, and it always provides good service with the legendary Beatles decor. Also non discrimatory and has amazing diner food of fish and chips.

This is a review from before the lockdowns. I had been in a couple of times before. This time went with three other people, and I had to ask them to turn off the obscene, vulgar, racist (n-word) rap music. While we were eating, they suddenly turned it on again for a few seconds and then turned it off when they noticed we were still there. What goes through the heads of employees who think they're at a club listening to this filth while adult guests are paying $20 for a piece of fried fish with fries? That and the ultra brightness of the lights in the place and the lack of general cleanliness is a big turn off. It gives the feeling that they make it too uncomfortable to want to stay for any length of time, just pay, eat and get out so the next customers can sit down. I know this place has been there for a long time, but there's much better fish and chips to eat than here.
