Absolutely DELICIOUS!! It came out so fast even though they seemed busy, the fish was mouth watering, fries and gravy was so good, shrimp cooked to perfection and the mushy peas is always a must. The server Puja was also outstanding. 10/10 would recommend to anyone

Newly renovated, new owners, new updated menu items, and new staff!! Been there numerous times since the updates and it has been a great experience. The food has been delicious, the staff has been friendly, great customer service, nice clean establishment and good price for the amount food you will be served! If you ate here before the new owners took it over and were displeased, please give it another try now! You won't be disappointed! Definitely made my top 5 places to eat in Medicine Hat.

Stopped in for late lunch. Service was very good. Took our drink order then came back for food order. Only one other table. Kinda slow but place was very clean and bright. Waitress was friendly and happy. Ordered the starter of calamari. Very good choice. Fried just right. Then came the 3 piece fish and chips. Fish was perfectly fried and hot. Fries also were hot. We also had the one piece cod and chips. Also another two piece Fish and chips. This is one of the better Joeys that I have tried. We all enjoyed our meals. Compliments to the Chef in the back. We will be back next time in Medicine Hat.

What a great experience. The new renovations are definitely interesting. Much less like a cafe, and much more fun and modern. The new menu appears to have fewer items, but more creative and interesting menu items. The service was simply incredible. Servers were pleasant, helpful, friendly and prompt. Overall a great experience! My only slight critique might be the coleslaw which seemed to be missing a little something. But very happy with my visit.

Today’s special of 2 fish and chips for 9.99 beverage was double worth the going. Craving for greens my fries were exchanged for a fresh salad. [There’s nothing more disappointing when boxed store fish are served. Guaranteed: At Joey’s that will NEVER be the case.] Joey’s freshly prepared fish always takes me back to ocean vacations and family gatherings. It’s happy hour indeed. Exciting times: New on their menu 3 Tatar sauce variations: *India’s spices bazaar Pakora batter with mango pickles; **Beunos Aires Chimichurri and ***Japanese sauce with wasabi. Can’t wait to try them all! Padha our friendly waitress made sure we are having a great time, the meals steaming hot and Mike’s limonade icy cold. Be sure to check out the weekly specials and vegan, gluten free options. Thanks chef and staff for keeping it so enjoyable and affordable. *****Earlier reviews****** Our group of friends went to Joey’s to celebrate the passing of winter. Zesty Cajun combo, Buddha bowls, coconut shrimp, home salad and my personal favourite, Salmon got shared. We brought with us small containers for leftovers, but there were none, simply because it was too deliciously prepared to stop eating. We wanted to meet the chef and showered him with compliments ! I could imagine the parking lot turning into a beachfront, with the Fish shack waiting for fishermen to come in. That’s how fresh and delicious the fish tasted. Service is great and reasonable prices count for dining out there more often. The variety is endless. Thanks for the “Hour-on-the-beach“ Medicine Hat experience!

I went there today with my girlfriend excellent food and very fresh staff. I ordered the fish and chips(2 piece) and custom volcano fries. The portions were good. And the fish tasted really really good the fries were well seasoned. My girlfriend got the chicken bites combo with fries the chicken was crispy and very good with the plum sauce. Would recommend 10/10.

This place is awesome the new owners are amazing and very friendly. I haven’t been in years and this new version is beautiful. I love the coleslaw and the cod is always done right and quick. It’s a very good deal for all the fish. The fish and shrimp combo is to die for with the Cajun spice! Will be back!!
