Great service and great food! Food was so hot and crispy, if you want fish & chips and many more delicious items come here. It really is a hidden gem!

We had fish and chips. It was nice and crispy, not oily, and batter was nice and not too thick like some places. They even have teriyaki and stuff on the menu but we didn't order that. I would come again!

Great Fish and Chips! We always order to go on our way to Reno and the order is ready in 15 minutes! Four pieces with chips. It's family owned and they love it when we pay in cash! Next time, I will post our pictures of the order.

I'm still on my little fish and chips kick and decided to give this place on Auburn a try. It's not exactly right off the 80 freeway, you'll have to drive into town a little. Thank god for GPS! As you get into the "downtown" look for the big clock tower, the fish and chips place is just across the street. Parking looks to be street parking, so you might have to drive around a bit to find parking, especially on a busy weekend. The shop is pleasant inside and I order a 3 piece fish and chips. It comes out all hot and too hot to handle with my bare hands. After cooling a little I take my first bite. Crisp on the outside and cooked perfect with white fish inside. It could use a little salt, but that's just me. I liked the food here and the prices are about the same as the rest of the fish and chips places, but it's just not as convenient right off the freeway with a strip mall parking lot, but I guess that's part of the charm of downtown Auburn here. Good place to stop if you want to spend some time wandering around Auburn.

Visiting my brother. On way out I did my typical Yelp search and decided to try this place. Clean with a lot of different decorations. Owner treated me and I ordered fish, scallops and chips. Food came out hot, crispy, not greasy and the right amount of batter. I keep finding cool old places in Auburn. I'll be back to Pelicans Roost!
