Fancy's Fish and Chips Seafood Restaurant — Restaurant in Barrie

I am sorry to say this was the worst experience I have had. We waited to be seated like the sign said - we were ignored for 15 minutes. That was clue #1 we should have left. Someone finally came over and told us to sit anywhere and someone would be right over, so we did. We waited another 30 minutes before anyone bothered to come to the table. Took our drink orders and made an excuse that they were “very busy”. The restaurant was less than half full!!! Three other couples arrived after us and they were all served before us. We were not impressed at all The waitress came by to confirm the order. It was as if she lost the order! Apologies made for the wait but food was coming Another 15 minutes and finally dinner arrived We had the haddock dinners. This was awful The fish was hard, overcooked and greasy The chips were not good either overcooked and just terrible and you could tell that the oil in the fryer had not been changed in ages. Everything tasted rancid. I was hopeful that it would be a good place to eat as there were good reviews but alas it was not to be. On the upside the bathroom was...

Grew up going to this place, was sad that it had closed, so decided to give it a go now that it's reopened. The best thing I can say about it, is that the batter and house tartar sauce were very good.

We ordered the large portions of halibut/fries with the extra piece of haddock so we could try it. To my recollection I used to have left over after ordering a large portion ( without the extra fish) but that doesn't seem to be the case any longer. I truly wish this place well as it's been a staple in Barrie for decades but I don't think it's for us anymore. For the same price as I spent, I'm stuffed to the gills from other places with better...

Have been a few times with my disabled parent. It is nearly impossible to get a wheelchair through the doors and no automatic button to assist. Small ledge/lip at both door frames make it challenging not to tip the wheelchair forward. We mentioned it to the server (who was lovely to deal with) and she advised it passed code for accessibility in Barrie. I would challenge that pass and ask the owner/manager to try to get a wheelchair through the doors themselves, while pushing a person with disabilities. I do not think we will be able to go back until this is fixed as it is embarrassing for my parent to have staff or other patrons rushing over to assist all the while literally tipping the wheels up and my parent having to lean back to...
