Skippers - e Falls

Skippers has been around for a long time, yet this was my first time eating there. I ordered a soda and a fish fillet, usually or at least I thought that a fish fillet came on a bun but it came as 2 pieces like strips about the width of a typical carrot. It was cod. Then I had a soda which was $3 dollars so my total bill was nearly $7 after tax way way overpriced for a soda, and they only had one size one price, the cup I’d say was about a 16-20oz Or medium equivalent so I gave them 4/5 stars for that reason. They do have family size combo meals which appeared to be fairly reasonable priced for the portions. For a family I give it A thumbs up for an individual as myself I didn’t feel this establishment was cost effective.

I don't think I'll be back but that isn't to say the experience was bad. It just wasn't good. Fish Chips were just ok. They were borderline greasy but I would not say they were greasy. Most of the fish was flaky but parts were mushy. All and all a middle of the road experience. The shrimp basket was a high point and perhaps on its own a worth a 2nd trip.We asked for no coleslaw but it was put on the plate and then removed without bothering to even wipe the original plate.

Spokane Wa June 2023The only time I can have skippers is when I visit Washington and it’s been years. My family and I found the skippers in Spokane and had an excellent dinner. The chowder was hot and wonderful. The coleslaw was crispy fresh fish was fried to perfection and fries were excellent. I was sorry to see Skippers leave California. Wheelchair accessibility: My wheelchair was maneuvered easily.

I'm glad to see the new owner and his sister are continuing the very fine food menu and are promoting a new atmosphere. Now instead of the plastic fish baskets you can eat on real plates, and it appears to me the portions are larger. The restaurant is very clean and they are super friendly and fast! The prices are good for the product and amount of food you get! (for 3 adults with drinks and tip under $60.00)Please stop by and support the only Skippers in our area!

This restaurant has been in that location since I was a kid. Always has had good fish. Owners have changed since I was young but the quality remains.
