About Us
The Pajo’s Story
Our story begins in 1985, where founder Patricia Branch and then business partner Joan Whettlaufer concocted the idea behind Pajos – a stand in Steveston’s Wharf serving the finest fish and chips in the West.
Fast-forward 25 years later, and that little stand now boasts four beautiful locations. A lot has changed for Pajos, but some things have stayed the same – great customer service, local ingredients, and the tastiest fish and chips this side of the coast.
Our mantra is simple – to serve you fish and chips worth buzzing about!
We want to be famous for fish and chips (it’s our motto after all). We do so by following a few simple rules:
- Fresh, local, B.C. ingredients
- Stellar, just-like-family, customer service
- A timeless, top-secret fish and chips recipe. Making both non-believers and enthusiasts swoon!
