Window Only, outside seating. Delicious!
Those are your bullet points. Eater LA had a mini-spotlight on this spot in their top places to eat in Venice, CA.... Read More Otherwise, it's a tiny hole in the wall, in a weird eclectic area, that I would've walked past. But we drove here, specifically for this place. Anyway, They were right. The classic Fish & Chips is BIG and fantastic. Very filling. They offer spices for their fries too. Obvi I went with the jalapeño seasoning, and it was GREAT. Super helpful employee who explained all the options well. If anyone I know goes to Venice, I will recommend this spot.
SIMPLY DELICIOUS! I wasn't sure what to expect from this place when it was suggested for a try but all I can say is yummm! We went in National French... Read More Fry Day, and who doesn't like French fries?? Well their fries are thick hand cut delicious goody goodness! Not only that, they have VEGAN options!! Like, what?!? Yes!!! Vegan fish and chips, vegan sauces...yesss! They're located on Venice boardwalk area so it's quite touristy there (which we try to avoid) but given how delicious this food was, ughh it looks like I'll have to get over my avoidance of that area. Parking is what it is near the boardwalk...difficult lol, so if you want free parking, park a few blocks away and walk. Service was great and the food took about 15 mins. We will be back!
We went here for a very casual dinner on a Friday evening. It's located right off the beach in an area that has multiple eateries. You order at a window... Read More and there is no dedicated seating, but some communal seating with the other restaurants. We took our food and ate on the beach.
We ordered the fish and chips and the combo and chips (fish and shrimp). The portions were huge and then fish and shrimp were fried perfectly. You can choose a salt flavor for your fries as well and j chose a garlic seasoning.
Would definitely recommend this place for a delicious but casual fish and chips. Only downside was the seating, but not too bad since you can just sit by the water.
Very tasty and fresh. Fish and chips can be a heavy food but the Wee Chippy strikes a great balance between crispy and rich without being too greasy feeling. I... Read More got the garlic salt on my fries and was surprised to find it came with real garlic bits, not just a garlicky powder seasoning. I'd suggest getting extra lemon to put on your coleslaw as it was good but could benefit from a touch more acidity.
Delicious!
The Wee Chippy serves the best fish and chips! Fresh, crispy, and full of flavor. Highly recommend!
Simple and delicious. Took a nice long round trip walk from Venice to Santa Monica and was starving at the end. Saw this little hole-in-the-wall and thought, "why not?"

The fish and chips here are so crispy and light. The fish has the perfect crunch and is so soft and buttery inside. The chips are also good. Get the UK curry and ask for it mixed with the garlic! The guy at the window recommended this combo and i'm glad he did. For a fully fried meal, it was surprisingly light. Not greasy at all and hit the spot! Had enough chips to take home to air fry and enjoy later.
If you're walking on the pier in Malibu and you're looking for something nice and fresh to eat, I would definitely recommend stopping by the chippy to grab something good.... Read More I called in to place my order, because Yelp was not working for me unfortunately to place one online, and the customer service over the phone oh my goodness was amazing. I felt like I was speaking with my best friend talking about good food. It took them about 15 minutes to finish making our meal, once I walked up to the window and handed my order with the big smile. I definitely felt the love! the fries are handmade. You can't catch handmade fries too often and they are YUM.
That lime seasoning isn't too much or too little. They have seats outside and they were filled with happy customers as we walked up to get our food. And I'm a BIG sauce girl, every is 5 stars .
Nice area to enjoy some food by the sand. Also the calamari was sold out yall, so that means ORDER IT lol. I missed my chance.
Late afternoon fish and chips. Stole a delicious sampler shrimp, too! Waiting for the sunset to top off a fabulous work week and holiday cheer!

Came here for fries, will come back for seafood! My boyfriend and I both agreed, these are the best fries we've ever had. We got them with garlic seasoning I... Read More believe and got to choose a couple yummy sauces to go with. We paired it with sandwiches from the spot on the corner but next time we'll just do our entire meal from here. The lady at the counter was laidback and helpful. It was a really chill spot, close enough to the beach but a bit removed, and the food did not disappoint.
"Hole in the wall, Literally " BUT great fish n chips, house cut fries, food was hot and flavorful. Service was good with the lady at the... Read More register asking the needed questions. Took about 15 minutes for our order, but well worth it. The flavors you could put on your fries were like an added bonus. There was not a lot of seating as there were like 5 little eatery on the same spot.
Food was amazing definitely 10/10 would recommend if you are around Venice THERE FRIES WERE BEYOND AMAZING!!!
