Menu for Maggie's Seafood Market | Fish & Chips Eatery in Nanaimo, BC

Really fun, awesome lady running this place.I loved how enthusiastic she was about sharing some of her favorite foods she ate as... a child. I was just expecting your average fish n chips joint, but the touch of Oriental culture really brightens the place upand overall made it quite memorable. I may have visited at an unfortunate time (near closing), but I withheld one star because Icould smell a mildly fishy smell coming from the back. As much as I enjoyed my experience I'm not sure I would eat seafood inthat atmosphere, might be hard to get past my senses telling me it may not be as fresh as it should be.. Read more

So good! A small, independent, mom and pop shop, with fresh fish and chips! We took the ferry from Vancouver to Nanaimo and were... so happy with our first meal on the island. We tried the Lingcod two piece fish and chips and also tried the Clam Chowder. Bothdid not disappoint! The batter was perfectly light and not too greasy. An ideal fish to batter ratio. Our friends had tacos andcod fish and chips and everyone was so happy with their meals. Read more

Terrible. I had the 2 piece halibut ($30), my friend had the 2 piece cod ($20). Halibut fillets weren?t whole, looked like... multiple small pieces of fish pieced together to make a full fillet/s. Was very fishy tasting which is uncommon for halibut. Myfriends cod was gross. Held the fillet up and oil was constantly dripping out. He also had a fly in his tartar sauce. Inside therestaurant was a shambles, multiple people waiting a long time for their food. We waited an hour to be disappointed. Expected alot better, wouldn?t go back. Read more

We had the halibut fish and chips. One big piece of fried fish but not greasy and the batter was amazing! One of the best we... had. I would recommend this little gem. 1-piece meal was very filling for the average adult. Of course, this is also a fishmarket so you can buy fresh or frozen fish and seafood to take home. Read more

Tonight was our first time trying Maggie?s and the food was Devine! We both ordered the halibut that came with fries, coleslaw,... a slice of lemon & tarter sauce. The fish was crispy on the outside & moist, not to oily. I hope the few who rated you poorlywill give you another chance, because we had an excellent experience and the food was cooked to perfection. The portion sizesare huge, which reflects the price and it is more fish then batter. We will most defiantly be returning again in the future :)thank you for the delicious meal. Oh and the tarter sauce was amazing! I don?t usually like tarter sauce but this one wasdelicious. Read more
