What customers say?

“ Just finished dining at Jackie’s. I edited the hours of operation. Couldn’t take a picture of the hours because they were using one of those digital boards and it would flicker when I take a picture. Basically open we’d, thu, sat and Sunday. From 1130am-7.00pm. Closed Mon, Tue and Friday. I guess this is for the season. Basically no table service. You order and pay at the counter. Pick up at counter when it’s ready. There are 4 tables you can sit on. Basically self service. Fish and chips are probably the best on the west end on the island and top 4 in the province. Batter crisp and light. ”

“ Good takeout. Nice location and view of Rocky Harbour out back at the picnic tables. Delicious fish and chips. It's nice to come back 7 years later to see they are still just as good. PREVIOUS: Great fish and chips, fried cod, cod au gratin, cod nuggets, french fries, and an interesting "Jack Attack" loaded fries that I would pass on next time. Food gets a 5! Good prices (for the area) especially for the big portions you get. Decor is very basic, but you go there for the food and nothing else. Not a lot of space and busy inside. A far walk from the street Rocky Harbour but worth it. Go to Earle's near by if this is full. Doesn't take credit cards. ”

“ The food was delicious and plentiful, and the price was well worth it! The lady that served us was very friendly and helpful. As a bonus, the view of Rocky Harbour was stunning! Definitely worth a visit! ”

“ We had lunch here after one of our trips into Gros Morne. We were told by several sources (both local and other tourists) that the burgers were good here. So, we went to try the burgers/hot sandwiches and added a “Jack Attack” (JA). The fish burger and the regular burger were both just spot on—good ol’ homemade goodness. They aren’t huge or anything drastic but just well executed dishes. The JA was just crazy! It was like a Newfoundlander version of poutine where fries meets sloppy joe. I don’t know what was in there but it was so good! We also ordered a large version of the coleslaw to complete the meal. The food is comfort at its best. The atmosphere is homey and unassuming but had enough seating and was clean. Service was friendly and quick. There weren’t any issues while eating here and we were happy that we checked this little place out. Food is simple but well done and tasty (don’t expect to eat healthily though… it isn’t exactly good for your heart but that’s the point when you’re on vacation), and service etc was exactly was we expected it to be. ”

“ The Missus and I along with the boys ate at Jackie's in 2016 when there was an option to eat in. On our latest visit, it was Take Out only with some picnic tables outside. We took our order back to our cabin. After finishing our trip of Newfoundland, we all agreed Jackie's had the best fish and chips. The fish was fried perfectly with a crispy batter and the chips delicious as well. It's a must have whenever we are in Rock Harbour. Highly recommend. ”

“ I used to live in Rocky Harbour, but moved away over 30 years ago. I've been dreaming of Jackies fried chicken ever since. I recently had the opportunity to try it after that amount of time and it hadnt changed a bit!!!! The best fried chicken Ive ever had in my life. If youre a fried chicken lover, do not skip this place!!! ”

“ Eating our way through the fish and chips of Newfoundland. This one is a winner... Super fresh, huge portions, very tasty, and great value. Staff were friendly and efficient. Definitely worth a visit if you are in Rocky Harbour! ”

“ Walked in for some take out fish and chips. Food was amazing a great portions for the price. Super good tartar sauce and delicious fish and chips. About 30 min wait once we ordered so we went down to the market to get some Quidi Vidi Brewery drinks. Sat out at the picnic tables to enjoy our food and the sunset was gorgeous, bugs were a bit bad though. I wouldn’t say the service was amazing, the server seems annoyed we ordered food was hoping we would just leave when she said it would take 30 mins to make. ”
