Hand-cut homemade chips with a crisp bite and fluffy centre set the pace at this neighbourhood chippy, paired with fresh fillets of blue cod and warehou drained cleanly so the golden batter stays light rather than oily. The menu spans classic battered fillets and fish burgers alongside savoury house-made patties, garlic chips, and a distinctively hearty corn fritter built on an herb-infused potato base. It caters well to families and regulars dropping in for lunch or dinner, offering both takeaways and casual dine-in seating.
Locals praise the flaky moisture of the white fish and the generous portion sizes, though some note the corn fritters can occasionally come out on the darker, firmer side. Peak Friday and Saturday dinner rushes tend to stretch wait times, and on-street parking along Sefton Street can tighten up quickly when orders peak. Found at 15 Sefton Street in Wadestown, the shop also takes phone orders and reservations, with wheelchair access provided. Our pick in the suburb when you want honest, traditional fish and chips fried right.
