Clutha Fish Supply is a fish and chips shop at 82 Clyde Street in Balclutha, rated 4.2 on Google from 162 reviews.
The heart of good fish and chips is freshness, so it always pays to ask what came in that day — around South Otago that might be blue cod, gurnard or tarakihi — and whether it's fried to order or sitting in the warmer. Good batter is crisp and thin rather than doughy, chips thick-cut and golden, and regulars know a busy Friday queue is usually the surest sign of a kitchen people trust. Keep it simple with the classics: a scoop of chips, tomato sauce, maybe an onion ring or two, eaten hot out of the paper.
For locals and travellers passing through Balclutha, Clutha Fish Supply on Clyde Street is a handy stop for a proper paper-wrapped feed.
