About
Pete’s Fish & Chips is an authentic British “Chip Shop”, in Cape Coral, Florida. Fish and Chips is a British staple food and is a dish of battered and deep fried Icelandic cod filet with double sliced fried potatoes or “chips”. Chips are more satisfying as an accompaniment to fried fish than the more slender “fries” which are served in most US restaurants. Combined with a sparse covering of salt and vinegar, Fish and Chips is a sublime eating experience. Pete’s also offers chicken, shrimp, pies and Cornish Pasties, which are a rare treat. Sit-in or takeaway options are available. Pete’s Fish & Chips offers chilled soft drinks, plus assorted beers & wine. ENJOY! Because you will!

Great seafood

I ordered the shrimp, fish and chicken combo platter. Everything was very good. The shrimp was awesome. A bit pricey but worth it, but everything is higher. A very good meal.

Still the ONE!

The last two years it seems like food and service have declined across the board. Pete's was our first stop when we finally made it back to Cape Coral, and we were not disappointed. Always friendly service, and consistent product. We tried the shrimp, and...it was also great. My husband and I shared the regular shrimp and regular fish and chips, and I couldn't begin to finish my portion so he had to take one for the team. It makes me crazy that people give a low rating for a small delivery area, pricing, or hours of operation. People...just eat the fish and be happy. It's the best there is.More

Portions

Several times ordered from Pete’s and most of the time it’s really good. This last experience was anything but. Not only were the young girls that worked behind the counter not wearing masks, they were making fun of customers that were wearing them. The portion...was maybe a snack size. Tiny piece of fish and 2 soggy shrimps. Too many fish n chip restaurants that have bigger portions for less or same cost. Really sucks this happened. It was for a celebration dinner and Pete’s failed.More

Excellent cod! I am originally from New England so we used to get cold water cod quite often. This is the best fried cod I have ever had. Get the Regular for a nice thick cut! Fried perfectly and not at all greasy! Tim and...Kayla served us - friendly people and great customer service. Chips were great too. We will be back soon!More

The fish and chips were very good. The price was very reasonable especially considering the high quality of the product. The staff was kind of blah, but so what, I guess.
