Paul and Chin are rare gems when it comes to family small business owners. They always provide service with a smile and their fish is top quality. Highly recommended to anyone :)

If you're looking for top-notch fish and chips with that old-school, home-cooked feel — look no further! This local gem is run by the most lovely husband and wife team who clearly pour their heart into every meal they serve. The food? Fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious. The fish is perfectly battered and crispy, not greasy at all, and the portions are generous. But let's talk about the hot chips — hands down the best I've ever had. Golden, crunchy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and seasoned just right. You can tell they really know their craft. Their burgers are next level too — juicy patties, fresh ingredients, and the kind of flavour that keeps you coming back. Everything is cooked to order, but the service is impressively fast without compromising quality. The whole experience feels like visiting friends who just happen to be amazing cooks. Friendly smiles, genuine service, and a warm local vibe that makes you want to support them again and again. This place is a true local treasure — do yourself a favour and try it out. You won’t be disappointed!

We decided to stay in Brisbane the night before our cruise ship departure, and living in the country 3hrs n 30 away from the city my partner and I were craving a great feed of fish n chips drove around for a while couldn’t find a decent shop , went through the list and stumbled upon this gem ! We opted for fisherman basket for 2 and what a treat ! The fish n chips were amazing ! Great size portion of everything, perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection ! . Had a great experience thank you and keep up the great work !

Always fantastic. Lovely food, the friendliest of service and very efficient. We often buy lunch here on a Friday for our staff. We’ve tried others in the area but always end up back here. Highly recommend

I loved the freshness of the seafood when this place was a restaurant on duporth av. I was so pleased a neighbour told me they run a fish and chip shop in maroochydore. The yummy salt and pepper calamari with their special coated crunchy chips instantly took me back. And the small pack fresh prawns available for purchase were also fresh and delicious. These people understand fresh seafood at affordable prices

Been eating here for eight years now and love the food! My favourite Hawaiian burger with extra beetroot and barbecue sauce.
