Reviews


The restaurant offers a variety of seafood dishes, with highlights being the lobster roll, fish and chips, and lobster poutine. The lobster roll received mixed reviews, with some finding the lobster to be lacking in quality while others enjoyed the overall experience. The fish and chips were a standout, with flavorful fish and crispy fries. The restaurant is known for being safe for those with gluten allergies, but some found the food to be average. The friendly and efficient service, along with the scenic waterside location, added to the overall dining experience. Prices were considered reasonable and the owner's attention to celiac needs was appreciated. Despite some areas for improvement, such as portion sizes and food presentation, many reviewers would return for the delicious fries and welcoming atmosphere provided by the staff, The Chip Shack usually has an average rating of 4.5.
