Fish & Whistle

My fiancé has been talking about going the fish and whistle for a few months now.. We finally went. It was a very comfy, cozy and the staff was very friendly. She got the "Petite fish & chips " and I got the chicken sandwich! Both orders were perfect! The batter they use for the chicken sandwich was very tasty and different! I loved it and the chicken was juicy! I am already looking forward to going back! Her fish and chips were perfect! Very fresh and juicy as well! We will be back ! Highly suggest! I met one of the owners and unfortunately forgot her name but she was very friendly and thanked us for supporting their establishment .

This place is everything we hoped for and more on a girls trip through New England! We ate our meal backward & started off with Salted Vanilla soft serve ice cream topped with caramelized bread crumbs- insanely delicious! 4 of us shared a full fish (made up of 3 petite fish [pictured] due to us showing up shortly before closing and them being sold out. We were informed of this up front.) The fish was light & so tasty. Their tartar sauce was unique with a fantastic dill flavor (huge fans!!!) Malted fries were very good & served with mayo. We mixed their amazing curry sauce with the mayo & devoured them. I was a fan of the ginger brew- super strong ginger taste. And lastly we got the apple beignets. They were shockingly small, HOWEVER what they lacked in size was outweighed by their melt in

Such a cute little place! A perfect coastal place for fish and chips. Service 💯, Fish 💯, Coleslaw 💯, Tarter Sauce 💯, Fries- Delicious!! Seriously so good! Fish was thick and flakey! And NO heavy oil flavor or feeling that may come with a low quality fry.

In the fall of 2024, while visiting Portland, Maine, we had two distinct culinary goals: to find the best fish and chips and to enjoy lobster in multiple meals. Happily, we accomplished both! The best fish and chips we found were at Fish & Whistle, discovered during a day trip south to Kennebunkport. Fish and chips is a go-to menu item for my wife and me, and having tried it at many places, we can confidently say this was the best we’ve ever had. Even a year later, we’re still raving about it! Unlike the common fish tenders served elsewhere, Fish & Whistle offered a large, perfectly fried piece of fish—crispy throughout without being oily, striking a delicate balance. They also had an impressive beer selection that day. If you’re in the Portland area, I highly recommend venturing south to

I'd heard this place had the best fish and chips in New England. It was certainly the best I've ever had, absolute S-tier. The fish was moist, flaky, and generous. The batter was light and crunchy. And as if that's not enough, they even have a Guinness float on the menu. I wish I lived across the street, I'd eat there every day and probably die young but very happy.
