Wainoni Fish Supply is a fish and chip shop at 88 Wainoni Rd in Wainoni, Christchurch. It has a 4.4 rating from 541 Google reviews. Its website offers an online menu with takeaway and delivery across many Christchurch suburbs through TuckerFox. Reviewers praise homemade chips made in the old style, mention potato fritters, curry rolls and a custard doughnut, and say the fish is good, though some find the batter thick or the portions and prices poor value.
Good fish and chips depend on the chips as much as the fish: hand-cut potatoes, cooked in clean, hot oil, should be golden and fluffy inside. Batter should be light and crisp with the fish still moist, and the best moment to eat is straight from the fryer. Ask for the catch of the day, and for chips and fish wrapped separately if you have a drive home, as steam softens the coating. Friday evenings are the busiest, so ordering ahead saves a wait.
For homemade chips and classic takeaways in Wainoni, Wainoni Fish Supply is a long-standing local shop.
