Max & Tilly's — Restaurant in Fishers

Max and Tilly's fish and chips were so good, they almost made me forget my British heritage… until I read some of these reviews. Skin on chips? Oh no! Someone alert the King! But seriously, they’re big, hearty chips—crispy outside, fluffy inside—and frankly, I’d rather eat those than read another rant about the bloody 'proper British way' to fry a potato.

As someone with a British mum who raised me on classics, I know a thing or two about fish and chips. Max and Tilly’s fish was golden and crispy, with tender, flaky insides—the kind of fish that would make my gran nod in approval from across the room. And let’s talk about the portions: they’re generous enough to make you rethink dessert (not that I skipped it… priorities).

To those giving low ratings because of "skin on chips" or whatever gripe was making waves in The Guardian that week, I have one piece of advice: chip up and eat. Food isn’t a passport inspection—it’s about taste, and Max and Tilly’s has it in spades.

In short: if you’re after an authentic, delicious fish and chips experience with proper-sized chips (skin and all), don’t let the nitpickers fool you. This spot is top-notch. Cheers to Max and Tilly’s for a...

I want to like this place. I want this place to succeed. I acknowledge I've spent numerous weeks in the UK over the years and went in with high hope and expectations.

Surprised from the start when the $9 kids meal fish and chips rang up $13 at the register. I noted to the cashier, menu in hand, and he shrugged it off "I guess those need re-printed".

The $6 soup was essentially in a ramekin, so if $1.50/oz chicken noodle soup is your jam - go for it. We wouldn't order again.

The most disappointing part of the meal? The chips. If you're a chip shop, the chips have to be spot on. Mine were lukewarm,, and I couldn't decide if they were undercooked (minimal crunch/crisp) or if they had been sitting in a warmer and not cooked fresh.

The fish was breaded and cooked to perfection. The staff was friendly. The location is rough, parking will be a challenge for them to overcome. The ambience is nice, but would have loved to see a more pub-sy vibe and not as modern.

Time will tell if this location survives or follows the path of Green District. I'm venturing to guess the middle slot of this development will be a revolving door due to parking and high...

As a Brit, I was so excited for this place to open for a long time, but I was heavily disappointed when I went last week. My friend and I both just ended up having “chips” (not chips), after we were told that 4 items on the menu were not available to us. The marketing was catered to vegans and Brits and failed to deliver to either.

The beer was bottled and tasted bad. Back to the “chips”, there was absolutely nothing authentic about them. They’re slightly bigger and thicker fries. The only thing they sort of got right was they made the fries slightly soggier like traditional chips. Chips are much thicker and don’t have potato skin on them.

Another gripe was that the menu states that the chip butty is on focaccia…why? That’s not a butty. Experiment or have a twist to your food by all means, you have the freedom to do that, but don’t advertise it as authentic British food because it’s far from it.

The service wasn’t bad however, the person who took my order was friendly, but it all felt so disorganised and awkward as an experience. It just seemed so new, but I’d love to give this place another try if things...
