I love their shrimp chow mein, fish, Satay, and chips. It's clean, fresh, and priced right.

Highly recommend their fish and chips. Well cooked. Good service with a smile. Tasted great. Will definitely go there again. Thanks.

Best fish I've ever had from a fish and chip shop. Nice and thick and not too greasy

Excellent Fish & Chip shop. Clean and crisp, just like the F & C. Pleasantly surprised as only went in on finding nearby corner shop was poor.

My Favourite Chip shop in Dunedin. The chips are always cooked perfect and the sides are always consistently good.
