Bare Bones Fish & Chips - Port Alberni

Food here is awesome. Some different choices that we need here in town. Lots of Korean inspired flavours. Love the church style on the inside. Services is very friendly and fast. Cocktails are delish. Hubs had the 2 piece cod and chips and I had the fried chicken sandwich. Both were excellent! Also really enjoyed the fried cauliflower :

The fish n chips and fish tacos were both fantastic! The batter was light and crispy, homemade tartar was amazing and the fish was fresh. The fries were soggy and a little disappointing but overall I’d still rate the food 5 stars. The service was lacking but not enough to drop the overall rating below a 4 star. Unfortunately the restaurant felt a bit grimey judging from the cleanliness of the high chairs, floors and bathrooms.

Delicious fish and chips. Friendly informal atmosphere. Great to have high ceiling and fans instead of air conditioning on this warm evening.

Ordered the 2 piece cod and chips, tasty but disappointing portion size. Fish was MAYBE 3 oz each but should be 5 industry standard). For the price 22 taxes) too much for the portion size. Compare Wildside/Surfside grill in Tofino far superior product IMO), for 19 taxes you get 2 x 5-8 oz cod each! See photos for comparisons first photo is Bare Bones). BB, please either reduce price of this or up portion size to reflect your competition. Thank you.
