“ This is my picky older child's absolutely favorite place to eat. Even when we are running errands further out of the area, he would rather come back to this specific location to eat. His favorite is the Cajun fish but I also appreciate that they have good choices for our littlest, who loves the little bug-shaped graham cracker cookies and shrimp and fries. The staff is super friendly. When I ask for condiments because I forget they had them on the self service counter again, they never say anything and just bring them with a smile. Parking is always good, though it can be a little tight if there are more cars. The crowd here is always a little bit older, which is such a shame because the quality of food is way better than a typical fast food restaurant, and definitely cleaner! ”
“ The best clam chowder ever! There’s an abundance of clams than potatoes. This beats any chowder place I’ve tried thus far. I typically would order the cod fish and chips. I’ve tried the halibut and salmon fish and chips. However, I prefer the cod as there’s a lot more meat. I would purchase the frozen clam chowder at times for home and at times to bring with me for my trip to Georgia to bring for my sister. I’ve been eating at this location since 2016. The portions of the fish and chips used to be generously big. Now, they’re small sadly. Wish they would’ve kept the size and increase the price. I’m ok with that. However, I will still eat here though. ”
“ I have been craving fish and chips for days. Today I was driving down Meridian and to my disbelief I spotted an Ivar's. Man, they did not disappoint me. Pulled into the drive-thur and order the seafood combo. I got hot and delicious fish, shrimp, clams and fries. I'll be back... ”

“ Ivar’s is always clean and the staff is attentive. Best (consistent) fast food fish and chips in south hill. I usually get the salmon which you can’t find everywhere. ”
“ Perfect. 4 piece cod with wild rice. Fresh. Delicious. Very kind and helpful staff. I didn't give a fifth star only for atmosphere only because, well, it's a typical Ivar's. But not a big deal. The food is great. ”
