We ordered Family special from the takeout menu and it’s the first time the food was horrible. Some of the fish wasn’t cooked fully and 1 piece wasn’t cooked Ben chewable (circled) We normally love the tartar sauce but this time it just tasted like mayonnaise. So disappointed. We ordered an extra lg fries and it was all in one wrapped paper and wasn’t enough to go around for the first time. Normally we would recommend the food but sadly not this time.
Quick service, fresh fish. I split the cod dinner for 2 and the appie fried mushrooms. Delish!
Service was friendly and efficient. I had the All You Can Eat Fish n Chips for $19.99 which is a spectacular price that can't be beat. Of course their fish and fries were cooked perfectly. I am glad I was able to try this place was visiting Vernon.
The food is decent but not exceptional, and the atmosphere is a touch old fashioned. The service was excellent however, and the cooks were efficient and quick to get our food out. I do have to say this though: Get the gravy to go with your chips! They have great chip gravy and great chips. It's worth the extra charge!
WOW!! My friend took me here on Sat. for lunch!! The waitress was in training, and was soooo welcoming, has a smile that lights up the room. She was VERY PROFESSIONAL. The young chef is so very capable of keeping up with the orders and making the meals PERFECT. GREAT atmosphere, too, with pics from years gone by all around the restaurant. Prices are more than reasonable. Thank you, my friend, for taking me for lunch and introducing me to the BEST FISH I've ever eaten. It was my first visit, but it won't be my last. 🙂🙂🫶🫶👍👍
I love this place! How can you be disappointed with anything on the menu??? Incredible food, incredible menu, fantastic service, reasonable pricing and great atmosphere! I love the all you can eat deal for $19.99 you can enjoy great fish, great fresh cut fries and phenomenal Onion Rings!!! If you haven’t tried the onion Rings you are missing out on an incredible experience! The Salmon Burger is off the charts! Wow what a great item, super tasty and yummy beyond belief! The Halibut is incredible and it’s always a toss up between the Halibut and the all you can eat! Great place!
It was my 107th eatery in Vernon on my quest to eat at every eatery in Vernon. My parents and I came here for the very first time ever. For the sixth time in this quest, I decided to eat meat. C-Lovers is the worst restaurant for vegetarians in Vernon. Other than appetizers, there aren't any vegetarian main dishes. You would be limited to onion rings, deep fried pickles, battered mushrooms, peas, coleslaw, etc. However, it's definitely doable if you do two appetizers. You can do All You Can Eat Fish and Chips for $19.99. It includes unlimited soda refills. We also shared Deep Fried Pickles. They aren't as good as Sir Winston's, but they were still delicious. My mom had the halibut platter and my dad had the cod platter. All three of us were really happy with our meals. We like that everything was lightly battered and the ranch sauce goes great with it. The venue is much bigger than we anticipated. It also leans to a much older demographic amongst customers. The server was super friendly. The venue was very clean. Although we paid everything on a single bill, I estimate my All You Can Eat meal including unlimited soda would be $23.60 after tax and a 15 percent tip. Restaurant complete. Highly recommend! 107 down. 50ish to go.
Still amazing value for money with the all you can eat fish and chips dish with bottomless pop for 15.99 at time of writing ( September 2020) or with a pint of brew instead of pop for 18.99. Whenever you feel like a feed of fish and chips this is the place to go... Not too greasy as the batter is fairly light. The service is friendly and efficient!
Deep fried mushrooms are Da . Had salmon burger very good, you should cook it on grill instead of deep frying.
Great fish and chips, definitely the best in Vernon. Large portions and great prices.
The waitress was very friendly and efficient and the food was very good. The restaurant was very clean and warm and comfortable overall, a must visit
Its OK.
Always Fantastic service when I go, and great food!
Thank you for your wonderful service specially to the chef his name is Eldrich hat s off to you Guys 10/10. Love the food and the ambience
Great food, great service from the staff
Being from alberta was looking for bigger pieces of fish for all you can eat on the first serving, tartar sauce was better than alberta
We went as a family of 5. The service was fantastic, and the food was delicious. The add ons of deep fried pickles, and the onions were great. Cant wait to go back!
Love everything about c-lovers. Fantastic food, super service. Dont eat all day then go for the all you can eat
Always a good feed. Love the all you can eat
Great fish and chips when your craving!!!
Good fish and chips. Not greasy ! Friendly, fast service. Wheelchair accessible
We went to Clovers for the first time tonight! Our services was fast and so friendly, her name was Maria! She was ontop of it!! The food was cheap and good, perfectly prepared fish and chips! We will start going more often! Food
food is so good that i don t think i will be eating fish & chips if it aint from here and the waitress was so nice as well
Its great for what it is meant to be -- an affordable, simple fish and chips place. Not a lemon in sight but tartar sauce by the squeeze bottle (no need to ask for more!) Great for families and oldies alike!
Ordered take out had the fish and chips with an order of prawns. I ordered their tarter and gravey as well. Food was good but was pretty upset when I returned to my room and no tarter in with my order. Fish needs tarter in my opinion also could use lemon slices with order. Ill go back but will check order before I leave.
My fish and chips were awesome, and I recommend the homemade tarter sauce.
Fast and friendly service.
I know this is a fish and chip joint but all ive had here so far is take out coleslaw. Its the best!! Use it with brisket, on a pulled pork sandwich. It goes with so much more than just fish.
We went the night of the Stanley cup game.....place was empty. Food is was terrible greasy, old, chips were the bottom of the barrel., seems like chips are refried. Portions are not what they use to be. Sad really. If its slow, portions terrible and old and service is poor, like we are putting them out for coming to the restaraunt. Note: service and food quality better on a busy night! Its worth the wait. Its fresh, chips better, staff frazzled but more attentive. So wait in a line. Otherwise food quality and service not worth the money, cause its not cheap any more.
Waitress disappeared. Waited awhile for refills and cheque. Was busy
Love this place! Fresh food, good prices
Fresh food, excellent service, clean restaurant. 10/10 will come back again.
Food is always amazing, best fish and chips from anywhere, the tartar sauce the 2nd best part. Our waitress we had last Friday as we did come in with like 18 people was amazing she deserves a raise for sure. Amazing price for kids
19.99 for all you can eat fish and chips is such a great deal. Alanna our server was also great !
It was amazing the service was the best we had alanna and she was absolutely amazing
The fish was great. The fries were gross; they had lots of bruises, were bland, and under-salted. The atmosphere was like a cheap dinner, and the background music was the local radio ststion (with commercials and depressing news stories).The service was just okay. All-in-all... a disappointing experience.
My wife remarked this used to be the best fish and chips,to me not so much 1 halibut and chips 1 beer 50.00 won t be back
All u can eat is awesome
Good food, large portions. 1 meal would feed two!
went back a couple days later, it was better. The fish is good the service way better. Food
C-Lovers has the best fish in town bar none. The wait staff is exceptional & always caters to your needs. Great place to eat!!
Just amazing
Love this place every time we are visiting Vernon.
Love the all you can eat
Sorry to complain but there was more batter than fish it was so thin. Dropped $100 and so not worth it!
Great food and excellent service. The only reason for 4 star and not 5 is that the chips were too soft for my liking.
Great service, great food
The fish and chips were hot, crispy, and delicious
Excelent food and service
We go here often
Just came down to Vernon/Kelowna from Edmonton and dropping by C-Lovers Fish and Chips was the best decision ever made. ALANNA was an amazing server and it was amazing to see how she also interacted with the other customers. She deserves a raise for sure with her hard work!!!
Great place
Excellent service and excellent food happens every time
Fish is really really oily and smelly like using really old oil.
Food was good, love the all you can eat fish and chips
Always a treat. Very good, coleslaw is awesome. Service was great. Will be back.
Always Great. Thank you for the service! Best in town! My go to place for Fish & Chips!
The food was delicious & service excellent
Love their take out special great deal.
Good stuff !
Very fast friendly and delicious food.
Food is always hot and fresh and service is fast and friendly.
Have been a customer for 10 years. Love the food. Today was awful. Staff were slammed but did an amazing job. The food was a bust.
I enjoyed my haddock and fries courtesy of the $25 gift card I won from online contest.
We first tried C lovers in Vernon many years ago. The food and service was fast and great. We were very happy when one opened up in our city too. (Kamloops). We often get the platter for 2 with halibut, onion rings, shrimp and fries and we usually have extra to take home after. We love the deep fried pickles too. Fast, friendly service.
Great fish and chips, friendly staff.
Good place for fish and chips
Our server was just fantastic. Service was so fast, like 5 minutes, absolutely blown away. Kitchen staff looked like they were enjoying their job. We had 4 orders of all you could eat. Best value, starts with 5 pces of fish. We ate three, took 2 home. The batter is thin and my preference is for the crispy beer batter type. But thats just me. Overall for price quality matrix cant really lose on this deal
Good variety of fish. Nicely cooked. Great fresh coleslaw. Not overdressed and soggy. Clean with super service.
Always a great experience going here for all-you-can-eat fish and chips. Super clean kitchen and lots of space for seating. Staff goes above and beyond to serve your every need. Atmosphere gets 3 because its looking dated. Plenty of parking available for any sized vehicle both on street and in the lot. Take out available for most menu items, and most patrons take advantage of the carry out deals. Ive eaten their wares many times and the food has been consistent for many years. #dontfixwhataintbroke. Highly recommend eating or ordering from here. Parking: Plenty available Kid-friendliness: Great pricing for kids options.
all 3 of us were thoroughly satisfied
Really good food at really good prices, not much more to say
Always a favorite spot- good food, fast and lovely staff
The fries were terrible, but everything else was fairly decent, especially the coleslaw.
Food was awesome and service was on point, atmosphere was more like a coffee shop or cafeteria, dont recall hearing any background music or a radio or anything, this was reason for 4 stars not 5.
Weve been there yesterday (Feb 1st 2023) for the first time. The young waitress was very friendly. Food is tasty and reasonably priced. Love the coleslaw! The interior design is dated, but its clean and that is more important than fancy decor. Only the washrooms look like they need to be renovated.
Bit greasy fish last time but generally good place to eat.
Sometimes too greasy Battered mushrooms are dry & hard. New to Vernon area. Langley city has the best! Food : 3/5
Amazing fish n chips loved it.
Prompt and courteous service. Food hot and generous.
The food was good but our food didnt all come out at the same time. 3 out of 4 of us got our food and 1 had to wait an extra 10 mins which was ridiculous. I overheard our waitress tell th cooks that if they couldnt do our whole order they should have told her and I found out later the assistant manager made our waitress cry and told her not to complain and accuse the cooks. The whole experience was uncomfortable. When we went to pay our waitress apologized again and I told her it wasnt her fault that the assistant manager should have dealt with our situation better...the assistant manager was right beside her and she looked up at me and just walked away instead of speaking to me, she was comfortable enough to reprimand our waitress close to us but wasnt comfortable enough to speak to us.
Havent been in years, but with such few options for fish and chips we gave it a go. Got the takeout special and it was excellent value! Very solid take-away. I must not be wrong, the place was packed!
Fantastic As always
It was the quaintest fyshop I have seen in a long long
9 pieces .....easy !
The best fish and chips EVER! Lovely and friendly staff!! Parking: Free and right outside the door to the restaurant. Recommended dishes All You Can Eat Fish and Chips
Best fish and chips ever!! Alanna was very friendly attentive and lovely. I highly recommend this place - it is always great quality and quantity. The fish is lightly battered and nothing is greasy. Parking: Free and right outside the door.
We were so full. Will definitely be there for fish n chips again.
First of all we checked the menu out and had a look around and should have walked, but, decided to give it a try. Yup! Should have run! Over priced across the menu! Two piece fish dinner at $30.00 plus $, Halibut Burger had a tiny peace of Halibut. You had to eat half the bun etc before finding any fish, no flavour profile, Onion rings were bland and oily and smelled, fries were subpar and smelled more like the onion rings, our cloths smelled like frying oil and onion when we left. We tipped the waitress 10% to be fair considering the food quality with a final bill of $52.00 with 1 tea and 1 water. Any Burger joint would have been better meal and I am not big on fast foods. I can t understand the positive reviews on this site.
We and our 90yr old MIL were seated right away at a very clean booth. Maria politely answered our questions & took our order. The fish was crisp and tasty, the coleslaw fresh and crunchy, and the chips were great. Will definitely be returning for our next craving. Wheelchair accessibility: Parking & entrance. Patio weather permitting
Typical diner. Fish was good while chips were so-so
Had the all you can eat and got food poisoning. My wife and I both got sick. Over 24 hours of the worst sickness of my life.
Best fish and chips I ever had.
Went for fish & chips with my parents on an impromptu Friday evening & they were packed! Still, we received our food in a timely manner & always great service at C Lovers. Good portions too!
Pretty good fish and chips, nothing special, nothing horrible
Good food good service fresh food great prices all you can eat fish chips under 20 dollars oysters burger was good coleslaw tasty Vegetarian options: Couple of items not alot of choices Wheelchair accessibility: Very easy to use good access
Second time in 2 mos.first time was burnt this time every thing was dried out wont be back again that is for sure absolutely awful make sure u sample your order before paying or accepting it once you leave its to late.
Always good Food! Recommend this Place, Friendly Staff
Was a little disgusted watching a server clear a table and the lid to the hot sauce fell on the floor. I watched her pick up the lid and put it back on the container of hot sauce.
I love this fish Always cooked to perfection, thank you.
Good selection of fish, shrimp, oysters all battered and fried. Reasonable prices.
Fish n Chips aways cooked Fresh and Hot ! Never fishy tasting. Yummy with vinegars and tartar sauce. Staff are Always Friendly and Polite . Service is fast ! Busy especially at lunch and at Supper time !
Great fish and chips as well as service. What more can be said. Don t take my word for it. See for yourself.
Clean and food was great! Amazing customer service
Enjoyed ad always
Food was good (and lots of it) and our server was quite nice and very professional. Would definitely dine there again.
Fish was bland and tasteless The wait staff are always great, thanks, Katherine and Maria. Food
Visiting from Ontario and we asked people best place to eat Fish N Chips. Got told this is the best place. Gotta say it tasted really good. Great service!
First time here. Fantastic meal! Fish was awesome, so were the prawns and onion rings! Well be back - SOON
Fresh and tasty food. Friendly and fast service. A place to recommend if you like battered fish and are in a rush. Food : 5/5
Supper fast waitress someone spilled a drink and she was there in a flash
Amazing experience. Will visit again!!
Service was great at this restaurant. The all you can eat fish & chips came out quickly and hot every time.
Awesome halibut meal
Great food and service. Our server Kathleen did a wonderful job and the food was delicious. Definitely our go to for fish and chips. Well done C Lovers
Service was fantastic but the fries were the worst I have ever had that I can remeber. Hard as a rocks, could not eat. The table next to me had the same complaint. Easy to offer all you can eat when it is hard to eat.
First time and loved the halibut platter. Maria was great!
Clean and bright dining area. Open kitchen. Very comfortable. Parking is easy. Takeout has its only ordering and waiting area. Staff works hard. The fish is of good-sized portions. The seafood chowder was flavorful without being salty. The fries were a little soggy though.
Dietary restrictions: Not really enough for diabetics Food
Ive never had a bad experience here. Fish is always delicious. Service is always good. Its our go to spot for cod and chips.
We ordered the All you can eat fish and chips for 19.95 and we didnt see a waitress , we had to leave, then she asked, would you like more water and more fish...lol wouldnt do that again....bad bad service today at 1:30 pm and it was slightly slow Food
Food was fast fresh and good, crispy fries, crispy fish the Pepsi had bubbles and the server person was quick and checked us often. The place has zero atmosphere, but who cares?!
I cant fault anything. The service is amazing, the food is always hot & delicious, & the environment makes it a great place to take the entire family or friends out to. Parking: Paved parking lot. Kid-friendliness: It is a Family-friendly restaurant. The waitresses/waiters are also so amazing, funny, & always ensure their guests always have the best time. I also do not work there, nor do I own the establishment. I just love the food, people & restaurant that much. Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, super easy.
Great friendly service food was great .
Great all you can eat fish one plate fish and chips I was full.. mom had the salmon great meals and done excellent. Are server Maria was very very friendly lady all the servers work hard restaurant was full good to see. Definitely coming back again
Very good. Advisable.
Always careful with my takeout service. Seems like everyone there is confident in their ability to ensure the customer is having a good experience.
Parking: What is there to say, its a parking lot. At this point I knew I was almost there. Wheelchair accessibility: I never tried to access it with a wheelchair, there are signs saying people with wheelchairs are allowed. The signs dont indicate any degree of difficulty or easiness.
This place is absolutely great. I like everything about this place. This was in Vernon and its the only one Ive been to and I know they exist other places.
Best Halibut dinner!!
Best fish.
Love the food, good price for how full you are when you leave. Service was great, but they are very busy and understaffed. Even with that the servers are amazing. Kid-friendliness: They have an ok kids menu, but they are mostly fried foods. If your kids dont like fish you may not want to bring them.
Awesome food and service. Thank you! Will be coming back!
I would like to try eating there once! instead of reheating after taking home!!
Halibut, fries and coleslaw was delicious but one friend ordered ceasar salad and lettuce all brown, asked for refund, all good, waitress was great
Always great fish always soggy fries
The best fish and chips in Vernon!
Exactly what you expect for a fish and chip joint. The fish is good and crispy too! Their fries are yummy and they offer gravy for a small fee if thats your inclination. We dont dine in often but their family take-away deal is terrific
Good food, great service
The food is actually a three-ish, but the price drops it. $28 for two pieces of sub-quality fish and mediocre fries
. nice place to go . Good food.
Our host Alana was absolutely amazing , Thank you for making our night better and our visit to C-Lovers awesome.
Had an awesome first experience here, absolutely delicious food and amazing staff! Would definitely recommend if you are in Vernon.
Always good...

A great place to enjoy seafood! We ve dined in and taken out, satisfied on both occasions.
Good fish :)
Excellent fish and chips, the fried oysters are huge and delicious.
Best fish n chips Ive had in forever. Fried oyster rock too. Ill be going back soon. Reasonable priced.
C Lovers might bw a chain, but it feels local and home grown. Staff ia pleasant, the establishment is quiet and comfortable, all-in-all a pleasant experience. I havent tried too much of the menu, because I am always drawn in by the all you can eat fish and chips. Their cod burger is pretty good though, as well as the Sea Dog!
Great food. Great deal, had the all you can eat fish and chips with a beer. Less than 50 bucks for 2 ppl .
