Visit websiteAbout Anna's Fish & Chips
A stalwart Hawthorn takeaway, Anna’s Fish & Chips turns out clean, golden flake and chips in remarkably fresh frying oil. The family-run counter has anchored Glenferrie Road routines for years—regulars know to ask for their battered fish finished right on the grill. Skip the commercial freezer fare: the crew makes their potato cakes by hand, crisp on the edges and pillowy in the center with a dusting of chicken salt. Expect a bustling queue on Friday nights, wrapped parcel orders, and hot chicken souvlakis handed over with a quick catch-up.
- House-Made Potato Cakes: Sliced and fried on-site rather than sourced frozen, yielding a crisp exterior with a creamy interior.
- Battered & Grilled Flake: Fillets can be dipped in batter and cooked straight on the flat-top grill upon request.
- Neighborhood Family Counter: A long-standing local fixture on Glenferrie Road known for fast takeaway parcels and welcoming counter service.

Before you head over
Practical ordering advice for a smooth takeaway experience at Anna's Fish & Chips.
Plan for Takeaway
The shop is set up primarily as a quick takeaway counter rather than a sit-down dining venue, so plan on ordering your meal to take home or enjoy off-site.
Expect Friday Peak Queues
Friday evenings draw significant lines outside due to dinner demand; consider calling ahead with your order so it is ready upon arrival.
Request Battered Fish on the Grill
Unlike standard fryers, the team can grill your fish coated in batter on request for a lighter finish with a crisp coating.
