The Fish n Chips here are definitely worthy of their reputation! They serve the best tasting fried fish you can get anywhere without actually going to the coast. The ambiance also makes it a somewhat nostalgic and fun place to eat. After hearing quite a bit about it, I went there for the first time and I was blown away by how GREAT their fish tasted. The service also was good and with a smile. Overall, I give it a 9 out of 10.

I have always loved the fish n' chips from Westchester Bowl and have never had a problem with their service, until today. I guess there is a first time for everything.
My co-worker went to pick up the food on her lunch. We had ordered three orders of fish n' chips. She requested to have the receipts, they forgot to put the receipts in the bag, and forgot one of the orders completely. So we drove back to Westchester, quite a nuisance, got our third order that should have been with the original order along with our receipts. They had our third order sitting on the counter, I looked in the bag for the receipts, alas, there wasn't any! I told the cashier that we needed our receipts for work purposes and she told me that the guy who put our order together the first time had included the receipts in the first bag. That was not the case. I told her, "No he didn't. And we do need to have them, please." When I asked if we could have the third order free, the lady behind the counter, chuckled, and said, "No, but we can give you a free coke!" Oh my, that's the one thing that I really wanted after having to go through the frustration of not having all of our order in the first place and our receipts. Methinks that Westchester should try a little harder at trying to please customers. And I would like to believe that this is an isolated event. And the thing is, the first time my co-worker went to pick the food up, the place wasn't that busy.
I, for one, will not be going back, unfortunately.

the food here is great!!! but call ahead your order cause you will be waiting and it does get packed! kudos to the hispanics who cook all that food!! your doing a great job. I appreiciate you!!

I guess many haven't been exposed to real "fish n chips" this place is a dive and the service is rotten. They need a change in management!

We first found out about Westchester's fish & chips about 20 years ago from a co-worker of my dad's. Since we don't get over to Morro Bay as often as we'd like for some beachside fish & chips, Westchester is the next best thing! We have never been disappointed with their fish, and their chicken strips/fish combo is excellent as well! The portions aren't quite as heaping as they once were, but I'd rather sacrifice that than the quality. As mentioned by others, the flour dusted dinner rolls are delicious and are the perfect side to the fish & chips. The fact that Westchester serves Pepsi is really the icing on the cake for me!

I haven't been to Westchester Bowl Coffee shop in at least 2 years, but the food is good and its a great place to enjoy some time with my grandparents.

OK, I haven't had the fish and chips, but I did have the egg salad and it was okay. There food is alright, but way overpriced. Crap, I could get a large soda else where and get two for the price that I'm paying there. There kids meal isn't great either, cause I orderd something for myself and my son and spent WAYYYY TOOOO MUCH for two people to eat. I could've gone behind to Carl's Jr. and eaten for less, (which is what I'll do next time).

And the last time we went bowling there, the girl at the food counter took FOREVERRRRRRRRRRR with the customer in front of me and then when I got up there, she stepped to the side and started talking to a customer sitting at the counter, and there was still 3 people behind me in line, and it wasn't like she was talking about anything important either, cause we could all hear them and everyone was wondering, "what the heck". The guy was doing more talking than her. It was very rude, and my whole table was yelling at me cause it was my turn to bowl, but I had to wait on chatty kathy! I'll definitely be bringing my own food next time. People may love their food, but it doesn't make up for bad service.

Best Chicken Strips and Fries I've ever had!!!

I love this place.

IF SOMEONE CAME IN AND STOLE ALL THEIR BOWLING BALLS THEY COULD STILL SURVIVE WITH THEIR FISH AND SALAD PLATES..

WE DONT MAKE IT THERE AS MUCH AS WE USED TO BUT IF SOMEONE WANTS TO GO THERE FOR DINNER IN OUR GROUP OF FRIENDS..I WOULDNT SAY NO!!

Well, I am shocked and dismayed at the food I received at the Westchester Bowl the other day. I took my friend there who is new to Bakersfield to experience "the best fish and chips ever." I have to say not any more. I thought it was funny when the waitperson brought us our order in less than 5 minutes from when we had ordered. As I cut into my fish, I realized why we had our order so quickly. The fish was practically cold and just full of grease. Obviously, this fish had been sitting around for quite a while. It was just terrible. My friend didn't even eat most of hers but was too polite to complain. I took the leftovers home but my cats wouldn't even eat it!

Love this place! The french dip and buget salad is to die for. I don't like fish, but I could live off Rick's fish. Keep up the good work.

I agree with everyone about the cole slaw. It's the best I ever had in my life. Sometimes I just order a bowl of cole slaw and a bowl of cottage cheese. Their fish and chips are great especially since they don't look at you funny when you ask for vinegar with your chips!!
I used to work very close to this place. I'm glad I don't any more because I'd be eathing there or at Joseph's every day.

Fantastic fish and chips, which everyone raves about, but the hidden gem is their rolls. Nothing beats a filling lunch, then a couple frames of shoddy bowling.
