Minor Fisheries Ltd. - Fish & Chip Takeout, Restaurant & Fish Market in Port Colborne

The perch tastes amazing! The food is so good and the atmosphere is beautiful.

Real fish and chips available here. (Perch or Pickerel)

I went there and ordered the Fishermens Combo, with tartar sauce, fishing mild sauce, coleslaw, french fries, bread and butter and more worth $23.75, + taxes = totalling $26.56.

Awsome food and the staff are excellent Highly recommend Food

Amazing food, treat your self

Found the fish a little greasy.

I always get a dinner to go here when Im in the area. The fresh caught Perch and Pickerel are delicious.

Fabulous fish dinner. The fish has a very light, crunchy batter. Fries are obviously fresh cut. The coleslaw is delicious as well. Ill be back.

I go to Minor Fisheries from Niagara Falls at least twice a month for the perch. It is the best. Superior to Port Dover. There is always a line up but the food and service are worth it.

Great take out place

Perfect port fish lunch

Great afternoon hanging out along the mouth of the canal

Ive never been to the place and just grabbed take away for my roommate who raves about it. Showed up on time and all the machines were down. Just a fluke. Frustrating if you work on that side, Im sure. Despite the difficulties of that all of the staff were amazing and doing their best to accommodate everyone. Sure I had to wait a bit but I was well taken care of and stole some fish from my roommates meal on the ride home. Next time Ill be ordering for myself as well. Shout out to the staff and the lady at the window that served me while balancing everything. You guys are great and Ill be back next week. Hopefully patrons were understanding of the situation. Easily the best fish I ever had and it was worth the MINOR difficulties of internet going out. Go check them out 100%.

Super friendly, great portions and taste great!

Amazing, amazing, amazing perch and pickerel. I had the Fishermans Combo (I believe it was called). The container was filled to the brim with several pieces of perch and two sizeable pickerel fillets, scallops, calamari, shrimp and fries for a smidge over $22. All cooked to perfection and delicious. It fed me for 2 days and reheated wonderfully in my air fryer the 2nd day. My husband had the Buffalo Chicken Fingers and said they were filling and very good. The staff is just lovely. Friendly and welcoming and warm. A truly wonderful representation of Port Colborne.

Went there Saturday. Got the perch three piece special was a awesome awesome meal the gravy id drive across country for that gravy . L O L amazing meal will definitely go back. Have told all my friends just awesome dinner for very much enjoyed.was great surprise since we just stopped almost went into the pizza place next-door what a mistake that would ve been

They lost my phone in order. After noticing me waiting there for 20 mins they took my order again but put me at the end of the line. I got my 6:20 pickup order at 6:55

Fish is always cooked just right. Servings are very substantial. Staff is cordial and friendly.

Had a fish sandwich that was so big and tasty that we decided to drive 40 minutes every week to get one. Great fries accompanied it for less than 10$ total.

Its fried .....kinda hard to mess-up

Bought fresh lake Erie perch to take home and cook. Fantastic!

We like to go for the smoked fish. Very reasonable and very tasteful. Reasonably priced. The picture shows 2 pieces. The 3rd piece is gone now. Does not last long at my house. Another trip this past Friday. Perfect.

Their hours are wonky... Thursday Friday Saturday (I think) through winter. Cant beat the fish dinners and coleslaw!! So good! Food : 5/5

Love this place and friendly staff,very small but great food , in summer you can eat outside

The pickerel is so delicious.....always fresh and the prices are fantastic

Pricey but great staff

Always amazing

Fish and chips I gave them 5 Star Very delicuse food

Best fresh take out fish around. Service is great and friendly. Amazing deals for cheap. If you are ever boat watching or just in Port Colborne check out Minor Fisheries! Dietary restrictions: If you have a gluten allergy they are willing to accomodate.

Wonderful fresh fish! Perch caught that day! Take out only, but its worth the wait!

Delicious and fresh

Atmosphere ok just takeout.

We are regulars, 2/3 time per month

Sitting by the canal chomping down on fresh pickerel and gobbling up fresh cut fries. No better way to watch the canal bridge go up and down. My go to place for fish and chips from now on.

Our neighbor got us some of their fish n chips! It was great, I love it!

Amazing fish and chips. Fresh and delicious! Reasonable price! Will be visiting again when we return to Port Colborne

Minors has the best fish in town, plus amazing customer service! They are always so helpful and quick with the orders! Definitely would recommend Minor Fisheries! Five Stars!

Great portions, fish was delicious.

Went to this restaurant on a whim and im glad that I did. Delicious pickerel and perch! The lady at the service counter was very friendly and welcoming.

Refused to let me in at 6:30 came from york reigon 2/h drive to be told no. Never again.

I had the scallop basket...it was delicious

The best fish n chips!!! So friggin good! We got the Perch and Shrimp combo.

Delicious food and fast friendly service! Will absolutely be back again and again!! :)

Best fish anywhere

Fresh perch was fantastic! The wait was worth taste.

The fish is awesome. You can buy the fish and batter fresh and cook at home

Went there last August, heading back again tonight! Fabulous and chips

Best fish in town .

A restaurant where you can enjoy fresh seafood from Lake Erie. At the time of writing this review, only takeout is available. There are public benches around the restaurant where you can eat while admiring the view of the canal. I highly recommend the fried pickerel and perch. The fluffy white fish has no odor at all, which is a sign of its freshness. There can be lines at lunchtime on weekends, so you should expect to wait in line. Or you can order in advance by phone.

This is the best place to go eat fish and chips. We drive for 40 minutes just to eat and enjoy our favorite meal at least once a week. We travel everywhere, try others who served fish and chips but i can say this place is our number 1 to recommend. Try and you will never regret.

Delicious Fish & Chips! My husband said they it reminded him of his Nonno s famous fried fish. The Pickerel was fresh and the fries amazing! I would highly recommend checking out Minor s if you re looking for a nice fish fry.

Had the perch today -- delicious! Also some frozen pickerel to take home. Our go-to for local fish.

Outstanding, every time!!

Delicious fish & chips. The lake erie perch are amazing!

Very nice fish & chips.

Best place overall

Fantastic perch and pickerel, and tasty popcorn shrimp. Good portions served with crunchy fries !

The best perch Ive ever had - fresh, and very lightly breaded and fried. Fries and cole slaw were also great. Only down side is theres no patio on the side any more so they cant sell alcohol. However, unless its a busy day on the Port waterfront, you can grab a bench on the other side of the street and enjoy your food while the ships go by...

Always great fish..fresh caught and cooked to order..awesome staff..

Best perch ever. Staff are friendly and efficient. But that perch

Awesome fish takeout and fresh fish Just go get some !!!

Fries were old and very small in size and amount. Small pieces of fish. Not buying there again.

Friendly stuff cheap food awesome taste

Best fresh fish dinners in town.

Best pickerel lunch Ive had ever! Worth the drive from Burlington, will go back again soon!

Pretty average place. Went to try after seeing 4.7 ratings.

Great deal on takeout!

Always good fish

Had the 3 and the 4 piece pickerel dinner. Food is great and had plenty to eat. Always a great meal at Minors.

In my opinion this is the one and only place on the region to go for fish and chips. The perch is out of this world, fries are great (not too greasy) the service is killer staff are polite and it all comes at an extremely reasonable price. And it s location is great, you can eat your fish and chips my the canal and watch the ships go by. Love this place

We drive from St. Catharines to have there Fish and Chips. It s the best we had all around!!

great perch yum yum

I really love the food, but I got to be honest with you. Walking in there the other day and not seeing any of you guys wear masks around me and my food was a little disturbing. I was trying to support the local business around here, but maybe Ill just have to stay away until after the pandemic, i guess...

Great as always thanks

We have tried this place a few times. The fish is very good. You do get enough for your money. The problem is with the fries. The last 2 times the fries were not just cold, but dried out. It was like they had been sitting for a while. I also didnt like that the girl that waits on you does not have a mask, but does tell people to wait outside when more than 3 are in the store. I will give them another try, but not on a Friday.

Beautiful fish!

Great perch

Food is Amazing. Worth the drive from St. Catharines

I just tried to get my fish for good friday and pay through the window like I do every single week because Im unable to wear a mask. (Which is allowed by the way) and I was refused service because they wouldnt allow me not to come inside to pay. Im a human being with different requirements and I was turned away. So disgraceful I will never return. They just lost a weekly customer for life.

Unbelievable hidden gem

Best fish n chips..fresh n delicious

Our new favorite place to get fish and chips. Its definitely worth the drive

Tasty fish and chips, generous portion at a reasonable price.

Great people, great service Ill be a customer for life =)

Great fish, excellent food and service

We have just had amazing perch and chips there ! My son said they were the best fish and chips he ate so far and that we will have to come back. Fries were also super good and fresh. Thank you so much for this treat, lovely people who work there ! Fast service , great food , low price and view on the canal .

Great fresh food

Finally we went to get our fish and chips dinners. We never had ordered from this place but whenever we were visiting this part of town we noticed that this place was always busy. We expected something exceptional and were looking forward to picking our meal. Unfortunately I must say that I was not impressed, for sure had better fish and chips in my past...Fish was not seasoned, fries were soggy and greasy, and calamari .....nothing special. I don t think I will be back again,just a bit disappointing

Best fresh fish

Great fish and chips! Very fresh fish!

Excellent fathers day special, food was cooked to perfection, tasty as always,worth the bike ride from Fort Erie

The very best

Best fish and chip in town. They are all fresh fish

Hats off to small businesses and restaurants who are trying their best during covid pandemic times. Its so hard for them. But I feel that sometimes, they dont make it easier, when they could. I visited minor brothers for a lunchtime fish and chips on a Thursday. There were a few people hanging around. There was signage that only mentioned masks were required and ease keep 6 feet distance. No signs explained the ordering process, which was: go inside (no more than three people, including if you were a couple), order, go out and wait then pick up your order. No menu or prices listed outside either. So people were queueing up outside, not knowing where to order, wanting to go inside to see the only menu (on the wall, inside) then asked to leave because too many people inside, husbands and wives together had to separate (because too many people)....it would have been so easy to fix all of this with a large sign stating order inside, pick up outside and putting a simplified menu or two outside. Ordering process aside, the food came quickly. Fries were so-so but fish was fantastic. Prepared with much skill. Ordered a perch and a pickerel...a snack size at about $7.

Best perch in the area. Had the dinner plus bought some fresh perch to cook at home. Number 1

Nothing better than fresh fish!

Love the Fishermans Platter Good fish place.

AMAZIIIIING!

Had the 2pc fish & chips (half pickerel and half perch) and an order of jumbo shrimp. The fish was super fresh and overall well made but could use a little more seasoning. Fries need a lot of improvement. Shrimp was good. Food is made to order and piping hot. Service was great and portions of fish are very generous and good value. Always a lineup so be prepared to wait a bit.

SO SO good. First time here as we explore Port Colborne, we will definitely be back. If you love fresh fish this is the place to be.

It is a restaurant with eat in or take out. You can also buy fresh fish to cook at home. I always buy the walleye and perch fillets and have a fish fry. Cannot get any fresher than this. Order take out, and sit along the water edge and enjoy.

What a great place, the perch is my favorite and you cant beat the dining room.

Best fresh fish from Lake Erie , breaded deep fried or take home and cook....

Pickerel was a nice change.

Absolutely delicious and fresh fish, fries and delicious home made coleslaw. We loved it!!! Thank you!

I realized why they dont answer the phone to take your order they have a line up outside waiting to place their order. The price might be a little high however no one has a reason to complain the dish is fantastic deleicous and you do get plenty of fish no matter what dish you order. While waiting l enjoyed watching a boat passing through the canal. You must try it.

fish very good not heavy batter

Good fish & Chips here. Ordered Pickerel. But I went on a Friday and they were swamped. Too busy to answer the phone to order ahead. So ordered there. Took 30 min. to get 3 orders.

Wonderful fresh fish

The fish is good. The fries are not.

The. Absolute. Best.

This place is amazing. We got the basic fish and chips for $7 and it was delicious. Just the right amount. They had run out of pickerel, but we were happy with perch. The light batter is perfect and the fries were great. There was a line-up at 12pm when we got there so we went for a walk and circled back at 1.30pm and there were only 2 people ahead of us at that point. You go in (only 3 people allowed) and order and get a number and then wait outside until they shout your number through the window. We waited only 5-10 mins and then ate our food on a bench overlooking the canal. You get a choice of either tartar sauce or seafood sauce (you know, tomato + horseradish) along with ketchup, malt vinegar, etc. This place is no nonsense and delicious and a deal. What more could you ask for?

Had delicious fish a couple weeks back and it was fresh and tasty with a great portion and the price is right!

Best fresh fish and fish n chips this side of Lake Erie.

Excellent fresh fish . Good prices fair prices

Excellent fish and chips. Highly recommend their pickerel and perch.

Best fish and chips in Ontario

Great fish. You must try their delicious perch dinners.

Excellent, fresh fish and chips. Indoor and outdoor seating. Fresh caught fish also available by the pound.

Fresh and crispy great local fish!!

What can anyone say GREAT!!!

We will come for the fresh perch and pickerel, which my husband loves, and is highly recommended by friends who are long-time very satisfied customers. Unfortunately I will not be able to enjoy your great fish and chips because I am celiac, and at the time of this writing, you dont have a fryer dedicated purposely just for gluten-free foods. I understand, many places also do not. Just very disappointed.

The best!!! Thank you

Minors the place to go, if u not only want takeout fish dinners, but if u want fish, fresh cought, Minors is the place.

Good food, good value.

Perch was fresh and nicely breaded. Very crispy. Fries fresh cut. Not greasy. Nice location off the canal where you can enjoy your feast with a view. Cant wait to return.

Best perch around.

Excellent takeout perch dinner. Highly recommend this Restaurant

You cant get any better fish or service from miners fish I drive there every two weeks The perch is fabulous

Speedy, delicious and reasoanble price. Great place.

Portions are big, quality is there, everything was fresh and very tasty.

I was next inline to be served but the girl at the counter decided to serve someone that had entered after me because he was local

Fish and chips were yummy.

Excellent!

The prices are quite affordable and it is delicious.

Delicious!! Great serving size!! FRESH!! quick!

Best fish Frys youll find

Best perch!

New to the area. Tried Minors...so fresh! I had the pickerel and it was excellent. Cant wait to try again Wish there was outdoor seating allowing for distancing during covid times. But, there are benches along the canal to enjoy lunch with a view.

Great little shop gor fish and chips, very flavorful, good portions, very inexpensive. We will come back.

The plate looks nice with big portion, but the only thing that is weired; why they dont marinate the fish b4 frying!!! The fish is tasteless unless u add any condiments.

Awesome fish and chips, fresh fish. Was really good and the prices are very reasonable for a tourist area. The staff was very friendly. Definitely worth trying out.

Lots of benches along canal across the street. Great place to enjoy fresh fish perfectly cooked, while watching the ships and the lift bridge.

The perch was amazing here! Will go back forsure!

The best!!!

I had the perch....amazing.....a must stop if you are just passing the area.

Ive been wanting to try this place for a while. We finally went recently unfortunately we waited until covid 19 and they didnt have any beer. The service was great as well as the prices and portions. Everything tasted great and the fish was cooked perfectly.

This is a favorite spot for my husband and I. We share an ol box of perch and a poutine between us. Solid 10/10

It was the best we had

Truthfully the food and the price was excellent! I cant give it a 5 for this reason. I called asked them about specials as I was a newbie. Was told $10.50 Saturday special. Got 2 of those. Went in and paid to find out they have a fall special for 6.99 which was actually more food for cheaper. When i questioned it she agreed with me but didnt offer any money back as I had already paid. Got to the car they forgot both buns that are supposed to be included. Great pricing and food but its the principal of it!

I ordered the 3 piece fish and chips (perch) They were very well made, not as greasy as other fish & chips Ive tried. Delicious and crispy, fish is fresh. Great place and very affordable too!

Great value, friendly staff, quick service... what more can you you ask for. These guys do an amazing job. Have been here several times in the past and will definitely be back. Keep up the good work.

Had the pickerel it was great

I walked out with two HUGE fish and chips dinners for very little money and would happily eat here every day for the rest of my life.

Fish is very small pieces

Their fish is excellent!!!

They are the best place for take out fried pickerel and perch in the entire Niagara region by far. Awesome onion rings and fries also. On Friday call first to pick up as they can get busy. The fish here always fresh and cooked to perfection. When patios are open you can also order beer.

Great jumbo shrimp . Prices are excellent!!

We were passing through and craving fish and chips so we Googled where to go and this place came up as a great option. As we stood outside waiting to go in to order, a couple of senior citizens were out there too and said this is the best fish in town....so we had high expectations. As you can see by the price list its EXCELLENT value! The fish was great, truly, but the French fries tasted very old and not fresh at all and the coleslaw likewise tasted old and wilted. The one complaint I would have is the lack of masks INSIDE by the staff....otherwise, I would definitely recommend Minor for great fish at a great price.

Great food..Great price...Great Service!!!

The food here is Great! #DogstableAbbey Approved!

The best perch & walleye dinner around. Prices are good. If youre looking for elegant surroundings this isnt the place. Its a basic decor with a view of the Welland Ship Canal. It has good food at good prices and quick service.

Best fish

Best fish in town!

Great fresh caught Walleye and Perch.

Excellent location for the freshest local Perch and Pickerel. Either buy the fillets raw and cook them up yourself at home, or you can order from their restaurant. Super tasty fish and chips, or fish on a bun. All the fries are hand pressed fresh and cooked just right. You cant go wrong getting your fish fix here. Check their hours of operation to avoid any disappointment. I love their perch on a bun, its my favorite.

I love fish and chips. When i ealked past this restaurant in the morning I made a decision that I was going there for lunch. I was deeply disappointed. I ordered the perch with fries. The perch was bland and the fries were extra greasy. The person who took our order wasnt very friendly either. 2 stars is the best I can give them.

Excellent fish and chips, was very satisfied will eat there again when in Port Colore

Great Perch, great value, friendly staff.
