Garfield Takeaways Waimauku is a fish and chips takeaway located at 11A Factory Road in Muriwai Beach, Rodney, holding a 4.5 Google rating.
A classic local chippy is built on fresh oil, crisp batter that does not turn soggy on the ride home, and hot chips salted the moment they leave the basket. Around coastal communities and beach settlements, order timing is everything on busy evenings, especially around sunset when beachgoers and locals head in at the same time. Good shops keep the fryers hot and turnover high, so food is cooked to order rather than sitting under a heat lamp. Regulars know to call an order through ahead of peak dinner rushes to avoid waiting out front on the curb.
It provides a handy takeaway stop for dinner near the coast at Muriwai Beach.
