Visited because of numerous recommendations. Nice setting for a neighbourhood fish n chippery. Service friendly. Average prices. Had been told battered fish was very good but unfortunately food was very poor - all the seafood was grossly overcooked. Very light batter was good but fish cooked until almost inedible. Potato was very much undercooked. Seemed like it was all thrown into the fryer at the same time and the oil was possibly too hot. Outside of the potato was fried until it was way too hard but the inside hadn't cooked properly. Considering the recommendations we had for this place it was very surprising just how bad the food was.

Really disappointing for a Friday night takeaway! Grilled fish (cod) was marinated with a slightly strange taste and the fish did not taste fresh at all - perhaps grilled snapper or barramundi (plain - without marinade) would have been better. Yes, it is cheaper than other fish'n'chips shops in Milton or St Lucia but fish and prawns did not have much flavour. Chips were fine and actually quite tasty but a bit salty. Probably not going back!
Fast and easy service, no fuss at all! Loved the beer battered snapper and scallops, though I felt that their cod was a little dry... The fries are delicious too! Crunchy on the outside while fluffy on the inside, simply love the batter! Best part about this is that I get to choose my own fish while ordering! Cute place in a quiet neighbourhood, worth it to stop by if you're looking for a nice quiet meal.
We get takeaway from here fairly regularly. It is tasty, fresh seafood with really nice seasoning on the chips. Grilled fish, with chips and salad meals are our go-to!! I can't really comment on the ambiance given I have only done takeaway but it seems fairly busy with families and couples dining in on weekend nights. Book a table now
Pretty good food with lots of options. Friendly and fast service and looks clean and modern. Seating area is al fresco but undercover - if it's windy it gets a bit chilly but you can always take away. Good spot in the area!
Don't know what these guys do but it is AMAZING. Best fish & it's so fresh it's unbelievable. Burgers they do are also delicious. They're always super speedy as well which is perfect for a quick take out meal.
Great little take away shop. Have been coming here for awhile and have not have one disappointing meal. Food portions are always huge too! Would recommend the dinner packs.Staff are also very lovely.
Great service, great staff- AWESOME prawn cutlets. Fish is sometimes a bit hit and miss. Would be lovely if they sold local fish, I'd come back a lot more. Aside from that it's pretty bang for buck Book a table now

"The food was tasty. But everyone at our table immediately felt very ill. Almost instantly. The salmon was also a little to raw. The meat was quite a fatty cut"
