About Apollo Seafoods

Break up the long Great Ocean Road drive with golden, crackling fish and chips served with generous warmth. This vintage Colac counter fries up crisp flake alongside breadcrumbed fresh fillets and thick 200g porterhouse steak sandwiches straight off the flat-top. Road-trippers often walk away with unexpected extras tucked into their parcels—think hot handfuls of chips or a slab of fish on the house. Grab a tub of rich gravy for dipping or pair your order with a cold burger with the lot.

  • House-Crumbed Fish: Breadcrumbed fillets fried crisp outside while keeping the fish tender within.
  • Porterhouse Steak Sandwich: A 200g cut served juicy with the lot right off the hot plate.
  • Great Ocean Road Refuel: A go-to pitstop for travelers returning to Melbourne via Colac, known for generous bonus bites.

Practical guidance on seating, ordering options, and road-trip dining in Colac

  • Opt for Takeout or the Park Opposite

    Indoor dining space is small and limited to high chairs, making takeout an ideal choice if traveling with a larger group. You can also eat across the street where there is an open park and playground.

  • Explore Flat-Top Grill & Crumbed Options

    For dining options beyond battered seafood, check out the flat-top grill. They serve crumbed fish alternatives as well as thick 200g porterhouse steak sandwiches and burgers with the lot.

  • Request Split Servings for Road Trip Sharing

    If you are stopping during a road trip with companions, feel free to ask staff for separate boxes or extra utensils to share meals easily in the car or on the road.
