Nothing fancy; just get your order at the food truck and eat at a picnic table. Best fish and chips ever!

Awesome service is a great final touch at this food truck where we ate the last two days for lunch. Cod fresh one day, halibut fresh the next!

I had the best Halibut and Chips that I have ever tasted. Even if it is served from a converted Camper, if you're in Ucluelet - don't miss it!

My wife and I both think this may be the best fish and chips we've ever had. The fish is lightly herbed and battered and tastes very good. Good fries too!

I should start this review by stating that I am not much of a fish and chips fan. Most fries get soggy sitting under the chips, even for a few minutes. And the fish is usually greasy, over-battered and flavorless. Now I am a convert as Jigger's fish and chips are amazing. The crispy fish batter is really light and... More

My fiance and I visited Ukee this last weekend, being he's from there, he was very happy to see Jigger's is still going strong. The fish and chips are soooo yummy, they have some herb in the batter that makes it just THAT much better! And for my fiance who's lactose intolerant they even grilled him a piece of fish... More

I love fish, but am not the biggest fan of fish and chips. I must say, I was pleasantly surprised with Jigger's fish and chips. The fish was so fresh. I loved the texture of the fish and how light the batter was.

I am someone who usually cannot eat any fried food and rarely get take-out. Sue at Snug Harbour Inn recommended this place and it was the best surprise of the trip! The fish couldn't be fresher (owner caught it the same day) and preparation is immaculately clean and fresh. No grease, no thick batters...just yummy goodness.
