Fish & Chippery By The Atlantic

The Verdict

Just like your favourite local chippery, The Atlantic’s Fish & Chippery serves classic summer takeaway with a refined twist. Think freshly caught fish, crispy potato chips and tempura soft shell crab wraps made for sun-soaked days by the river.

Run by the same seafood experts as at The Atlantic, fish at Fish & Chippery is treated with all the respect it deserves. Fish is fresh, never frozen, and complimented by creative, foodie-approved ingredients like garlic aioli and goma dressing. Drooling yet? 

The Thai fish cakes made with real fish, Asian spices and served with sweet chilli sauce may just steal the show. Herby, fragrant, soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside, you ‘cod’ not find better in Melbourne.

Along with crispy soft shell crab tossed with chilli, coriander, spring onion and jalapeño ponzu, fish can be grilled and paired with vibrant salads for a healthier summer alternative. Natural oysters, Ethel’s mashed potato cakes and The Atlantic’s mushy peas are a few of the #fitspo options available through Melbourne’s sunny season.

If you’re looking for more traditional chippery options, swim your way to smoked salted paprika chips, classic Aussie potato cakes and beer battered barra. Serial snackers will be pleased to hear $1 mashed potato cakes are available every Monday for an after work nibble.

Positioned on the Crown Riverwalk along the iconic Yarra River, you’ll want to snag a spot on Fish & Chippery’s beach-coloured, pale timber tables. Alternatively, make it into a day and tote your fishy haul for a lazy picnic in the heart of the city. Talk about date night goals!
