The food here hasn't changed in the 30+ years I've been going here. If it ain't broke, don't fix it! All of your "big greasy feed" needs can be met here; and with lots of flavor and decent portion size! Definitely worth a visit!
Visiting Newfoundland stopped in for some fish and chips. Great pricing and great food. Definitely will be back for more. 👍
I just tried this for the first time. Had a 2 piece fish and chips. The old lady had cod bites and fries with dressing and gravy. The amount of food we got was unreal. There was so much! The flavour though! It was unbelievable. I don't know if they're always this good, but wow. The fish was the best I ever had in NL. So crispy and crunchy outside, but succulent and juicy inside. Filled with flavor. The fries were amazing. After so many disappointing fish and chip places over the last year, this was worth the wait! I'll definitely be back!
Fries lots of them drowned in what they call gravy. If you likes your Fries soggy this is the spot to be at. Yeah no Chinese food here they took the woks up to keep up with the fish and chips demand. Hmmm went for one thing and got some sandwich worth maybe 5 bucks and overpriced soggy Fries. I am glad I went here not ever again peace out to ya ol lady . Don't work to hard with them flapping doors they might just take ya out .
UPDATED BELOW... Great food every time. I have been a customer for many many years. Highly recommended. September 2024 update: Since the new ownership we have been back a few times. Before the new owners added Chinese food to the menu, it was the same great food. Shortly after they added Chinese, the food was not as good. I stopped going. I heard they removed Chinese food from the menu and in hopes for a "recovery", we went back. Sadly, the food was still very different and certainly not as good. Personally, even though a nice place with great employees, I will not be going back. I will miss the old food.
This not the first i have been to this restaurant. I always enjoyed their food. Lately i have gotten hair in my food and today the fries were rubbery and tasted like they have been cooked forever and reheated. Yes i have spoke with someone there before and didn't feel like they were apologetic at all.
Service was fantastic. Food was even better. I had the cod bites and fries and it was spectacular. The batter was crispy and not too greasy, fries were cooked just right. Reccomend 100%.
Perfectly crispy, moreish chips, some of the best I’ve ever had. Some store-bought miracle whip on the burger (I’d prefer actual mayo), but still a great chicken sandwich.
Great food, large portions
They give very generous portion sizes, but it can be a little greasy on times. One thing I didnt like is that they charge $3.50 for a 500 ml bottle of pop. In my opinion, thats a little pricey. What I did like are the portion sizes because its easy to order one plate and share between 2 people.
The staff were nice, and lots of locals. Parking: They have parking in the back as well as the front Food : 5/5 |
This is a small town, greasy spoon style of restaurant. However, dont judge it by the genre alone. The food is excellent! The batter is thin and crispy so theres no trapped grease beneath the batter. The fish was fresh and cooked to the perfect flake point. The chicken was moist and flavorful. The fries were tasty and not the least bit greasy. Even the gravy was the perfect thickness and taste to blend with the food. The portions are ENORMOUS! Make sure you are very hungry, or plan on sharing your meal with a friend. The prices are very reasonable as well, even if the portions had been more typical. The restaurant also has burgers and a full menu of Chinese food. Everything is made there. Even the Chinese food tastes great and has large portions.
Best possible fish and chips.
Food was absolutely fantastic! Little over 15 min wait but was definitely worth it. Great job guys. I will be back Food : 5/5
Wings were amazing. Fish was amazing. Dressing and gravy were great. Chips were no so great.
Two 3-Piece wings and chips and a small onion rings for $42.00 that were too greasy to even finish. Sad to say it will be my last meal at the Seaside. Used to be the best on the shore, definitely no more.
Omg!! Fantastic Chinese food! Delicious & hot! Huge portions! Awesome prices! Friendly staff! Will definitely be having it again!!
This is a small dîner but dont be influenced by its location. We dropped in as we wwre told the fish and chips were good. The fish and chips were very good. The best Ive had in a long time. The home fries were also crispy and delicious.
Delicious food on their menu with down home service.
Fish was ok but fries way over cooked
Yesterday, my family and I ordered from Seaside to celebrate my mothers birthday. Normally the food and service are both great at this resturant. When we recieved the food yesterday, we immediately noticed a sour, chemical-like smell coming from the meals. Thinking not much of it, we all took a bite of our food and the dressing was absolutely rancid. All five of our meals were ruined by the foul dressing and we had to throw the majority of the food out. Out of concern, my mother called the resturant to ensure that the dressing hadnt gone bad or hadnt been contaminated by any cleaning chemicals. Not only were we hoping to recieve the quality of food we had paid for but we were all concerned for the health and safety of others who ordered from the resturant last night. On this occasion, the staff who answered my mothers phone call were very polite and understanding. They told her that the manager would call back the next day and resolve the issue. Today we recieved a very abrupt and disrespectful phone call from the resturant. We were told that the foul, sour taste of the food was due to the savory in the dressing. However, my family and I still do not believe this to be true as all of us are feeling unwell today. There was no attempt made by the resturant to help correct my mothers spoiled birthday supper. I have been a long time fan of Seaside and my family has bought food from this location for over twenty years now. However, after last nights experience, I have no intentions of returning to the resturant and I will gladly get my take out fish elsewhere.
Best fish and chips and poutine in CBS.
Cheese burger was delicious.
The best
Best Fish and Chips anywhere. Bar none
Great food and great service!
A must stop if you love food. ! Friendly and clean.
Great food (Had the fish and chips) and fantastic service! I called in a takeout order, and was advised it would take about 12 minutes. I got there 7 minutes early and was expecting to wait, but they already had it ready to go!
Food is good but definitely pricy 2 fish and chips dressing and gravy over 50 bucks
Love there fries
A CBS staple for years. Home on Holidays and wanted a plate of fish n Chips. Of course with dressing to boot. Ordered the special. small plate...... ha anything but small. Didnt need to eat for a week. Staff super friendly, service quick, and clean place to sit and enjoy a meal. Now if there was a small patio out the back and they had a liquor license, would be top notch. Thanks as always keep up the stellar service
Stopped in for a bite to eat and was surprised by the price and size of the portions that was served. Great food and friendly people.
Huge portions of delicious fish and chips
Omg it was the best fish and chips I had ever had cook or chaff did out standing job, the price was I think was good for what I had 2 awesome pieces of fish NOT all batter thin batter I would definitely be back only for a friend told me about the fish I wouldnt of even went in place wouldnt hurt abit of TLC and maybe beach theme but very clean and very nice friendly staff that day anyway you have little gold mine there if you could do something with out and inside little Newfie music etc . 5 stars Parking: About handful maybe like I said this person that was cooking that day last week on Tuesday was amazing 1st time ever having fish like that sence my grandmothers passing I will bring my friends next yr from away they will love it . Hardly any grease. Gold mine you have there if you do something with it even beer license wouldnt hurt if improvements could be done . Kid-friendliness: Kids menu and clean , like I said needs inlightment maybe coloring placements beach theme not really much kid friendly I gruss
The worst weve had from this asstablisment. Everything was either too dry or undercover. Weve ordered from there before with no complaints but this evening was absolutely disappointing. I wouldnt even give it to my dogs as a treat. Very disappointed customers
Very good dressed fries
Great food as always.
Great service
Parking lot is a nightmare!!! Food is pretty good, but its expensive tbh
Awesome food
Always a good feed of fish and chips.
April 2nd, 2021. Good Friday, Best fish and Chips! It was Oh So Good!! Thanks
Great food!
Seaside been in Topsail for years and I been eating there for years and is still one of the best places for fish/chicken and chips they also make a mean hot turkey sandwich
Great service and huge portions!
Oh yeah
My favorite fish & chip place in NL!
Cozy place and excellent service. We tried their fish and chips and it was out of this world.
An amazing experience overall. Clean, courteous staff, and very much worth the price. Exceeded my expectations for food quality to the point where it outperforms big chain/famous restaurants in the town.
Very nice place and delicious fish and chips
The food was fresh, hot and delicious. The service was wonderful! Highly recommend.
The food was delicious and plentiful and super well priced. And the service was quick and friendly. Couldnt ask for better.

Great food been going there for over 20 years! Never fails to be a great meal!
Food is great
Tight parking lot, but excellent food!
Got the order wrong and were difficult to get to understand. Food seemed beyond greasy ....last trip
Great food and lots of it.
Never have we been disappointed. Excellent food. Very friendly staff.
Drove from the Goulds to try this place. Hours on google claim they were open until 10pm tonight. We get there at 9;08 and the place is closed not a light on. Maybe they should update their store hours online :-/
Always fresh and tasty! Love the fries & gravy!
Fish was really dry and chewy! Seem like very old fish. For the price I hoped for a better meal but I guess lesson learned.
Excellent classic food. Great portions and flavour
Enjoyed the very basic premises and significant portions. Had the 3-piece fish and chips. Light batter, nice white fish, and loads of home fries ranks this among the many excellent local fi-chi locations.
Had my first meal here on a recommendation, boy am I happy I did! Fresh fish, moist and the batter was just crispy enough. The serving portions are fantastic, worth ever penny! Highly recommend.
One of the best fish and chips in newfot
Delicious fish and great specials. Very warm service. We will be back!
Best fish and chips Ive EVER had!! Small little place but food was amazing!
Fast service great fish and chips!
Best Fish and chips on the Avalon!
Great food great service
This was the second time my friend and I ate at Seaside Restaurant. The meal (Clubhouse and fries) was great. My friend had cod bites and fries. He said the cod bites were very good. Both meals were blocked with fries, which was a good thing. Hot and fresh. Service was good as well. While we had our meal, customer traffic was steady. A good thing. Try the Seaside, you wont be disappointed!
Great fish and chips,Hot turkey sandwiches or whatever your heart desires in fast food. Friendly staff, reasonable prices,orders usually ready in 15 minutes or less. Great place for a bite to eat. Ko
While visiting the CBS area we thought we would drop by this mom & pop, as many Google reviewers gave it 4+ stars. We visited mid-afternoon and were the only patrons. If you want quantity over quality you may enjoy this place - each meal was served with a large plate of fries as a side. While the fries were homemade and well-cooked, the homemade beef? burger I received tasted very, very fishy. Unfortunately, after paying for and receiving the meal we were not checked upon and were not given an opportunity to express this concern in the moment.
Love the fries
Very good fish, chips, dressing and gravy.
Friendly and professional. Good food.
Good food, large portion size and friendly service. What more could a fat boy from Newfoundland ask for.
Delicious
Delicious food, reasonable price, fast service. Large portions, would definitely recommend the fish and chips, with dressing and gravy.
Local fish and chip shop that always has good food.
Very greasy chicken wings and overcooked fries
Visited Seaside last night. The food was absolutely delicious and the staff was super friendly! LOVED IT!!
The food was delicious.
Great food,friendly and fast service. Awesome experience!!
Great fish!!! Love the wings too!!!
Delicious food and very friendly staff. Their google hours are incorrect and theyre aware but cannot fix.
Irdered food to take out and spent over $60. My fish was yellow, dried out and tasteless. Not often I will leave food on a plate, especially fish and chips but I couldnt eat it. My wife was also not impressed with her meal. Wont be going back.
Good Food
Awesome fish and chips. A certain fried food flavor I will have to go back for! Some of the best I have had on the island so far.
The Best Fish and Chips, hearty portion. Good quality.
Best fish and chips in CBS!
Food awesome friendly service
Love the food here. So good
Great portions at a reasonable price
The fish and chips was really good! Big white flaky pieces of fish lots of fries and at a great price!
I dont like having to pay for a meal before I get it. This leave you with little recourse if there is something wrong with the meal. I.e over cooked burger, cold French fries and old tasting cod fish.
The best
Delicious everytime we go here
Great place to eat.
Great prices , great food recommending it to everyone
My favourite fish and chip place!
Very good...I had the fish and chips...yum...
I took my kids and relatives in and ordered 7 fish and chips with dressing and gravy. Every plate out was loaded to the max and tasty. Great fish and chips!
Was absolutely delicious and massive portions!!
Good, old fashioned snack bar. Takes me back to the 70s when I first came to Newfoundland.
Huge portions. Amazing fries, and fish is always fresh tasting. Love this place.
Best fish and chips
Food is great, but prices for gravy and other sides are too high.
Fish was smothered with fries and gravy making the fish soggy
Awesome fish and chips after a great drive around CBS.
My family brought me here when I visited in December, it s now October and I still remember how amazing the fish & chips w/dressing and gravy is! More than enough food. I absolutely can not wait to return. It s probably better that I live in the states, otherwise I would eat here twice a day!
I eat at this restaurant a lot, I love their food ,its delicious
1st place local Take out. Fast Friendly service. Hot and Huge portions. Daily specials $11-$12.
Portions are large and food tastes great!

Great fish & chips
Love the food & the service. Glad that I live so close
Paid $18 for Cod Bites and Drink. Asked for extra tarter sauce since they only gave me 2 and I wanted more. The lady behind the counter handed out 1 more additional, I politely asked for another and she gave me a dirty look and asked for 25 cents for anymore!! LOL I just paid $18 and they wanted 25 cents more for a little packet of tarter sauce! What happened to good Customer service? GREASY soaked fish that is old and they smother it in gravy to cover it up!!!! never again.
Absolutely always....great food. Really nice staff.
Friendly and helpful staff and delicious food.
