Authentic old school fish and chips…. You have to try the grilled Dory fillets. You’ll never have flake again. Hand cut chips and potato cakes. Alex is a gentleman. Pay attention to how clean this place is. Not exactly local for us but worth the trip. We will be back 👌🏻👌🏻

This man and his fish and chips are a national treasure. Best I've had in over 20 years. Very genuine old school takeaway joint that is cash only. My only regret is that I've been going to average F+C shops for the past few years living on this side of town and I've only found Alex's tonight. Definitely will be back soon.

The owner was extremely lovely and friendly! Fish and chips made with love! We absolutely loved it. Probably the best we ever had. The owner even gave us free potato cakes while we were waiting and even gave us extras packed in our order. So kind! Highly recommend! All of these for only 20$.

This place feels so nostalgic, like an old school local takeaway. Wow! Such great fish and chips! We ordered flake and barramundi - so fresh with a super crispy, light batter. Chips looked hand cut and were crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Alex gave me some crumbed dory to try while I was waiting and it was so tasty with delicious herbs in the coating. Come get your fish n chips on the way to the beach or park, you won't regret it. Cash only btw.

This place is a time machine. It's honestly the most endearing thing about this little shop. My heart will break a little the day someone modernises this little place. The food is magnificent, no one has perfected their craft so well as Alex and his wife. Definitely my new go-to fish and shop place in Altona!

Humble family owned store in a quiet little strip. Business seemed quite constant with locals walking in and consistent phone calls. Wait time was about 20 minutes and we were given a fried potatoes for waiting. Fish and chips were fried well, unfortunately we're no offered chicken salt. Calamari was slightly disappointing and they were processed and crumbed as opposed to the real stuff.

Drove past this unassuming neighborhood shop and decided to stop for some fish n chips based on the high Google rating, and met the most lovely friendly generous owners Alex and Lia. They have been cooking fresh seafood and feeding the local community for the past 38 years and taking such good care of the shop and its customers. Fresh seafood, hand cut chips and oil that's changed daily. They open the shop six days and do a deep clean on Monday. Alex showed me the rangehood that's shiny and spotless. As soon as we ordered, Alex put some potato scallops on the counter and said eat eat. We were treated with his jokes and the gorgeous smile of Lia's while waiting for the food. When the food is packaged, Alex said come back try the fish grilled next time and then insisted on grilling a piece for us to try. It's like visiting your friends' parents/grandparents and keeping getting fed nice food. This neighbood shop is what we miss about the good old days. Everyone knows everyone's name and probably the names and orders of their entire family. The love of cooking and of looking after each other and the pride. Walked away with a very happy tummy and a heart that's filled with warmth.
