About Deep Blue Sea Fish n Chips & Chicken Bar

Crispy, golden flake meets crunchy fried chicken at this classic St Albans takeaway—served in massive portions without the chain markup. Run by a welcoming couple, this counter serves hot parcels of freshly battered fish alongside house-made dim sims and hand-cut potato cakes. Orders often come with a couple of extra potato cakes tucked into the bag for the ride home. Pair a crackling dinner pack with thick gravy, or grab a crunchy batch of seasoned chips cooked fresh to order.

  • Crisp Fried Chicken: Fried with a light, crunchy batter, serving as a crisp neighborhood alternative to big fast-food chains.
  • House-Made Dim Sims: Crafted in-house alongside traditional flake and chips rather than standard factory freezer stock.
  • Generous Bonus Potato Cakes: Orders frequently include extra freshly fried potato cakes packed in at no charge.

Why Choose Deep Blue Sea Fish n Chips & Chicken Bar

Why locals consistently choose Deep Blue Sea for fresh fish, crispy chicken, and old-school hospitality.

  • Freshly Battered Flake & Crispy Hand-Cut Chips

    The shop serves freshly battered flake and hand-cut chips cooked with a crisp outer crunch and generous portion sizing.

    The flake is always perfectly cooked and crispy and the chips are great too. Really good value for what you get.

  • Massive Value & Complimentary Extras

    Takeaway orders routinely include complimentary bonus items like extra potato cakes alongside massive portions.

    The large chips were HUGE and only $10, which honestly feels unheard of now. The portions were so generous I could barely finish them.

  • Crunchy House-Battered Fried Chicken

    In addition to traditional fish and chips, the shop prepares standout crunchy fried chicken that rivals major fast-food brands.

    The food is delicious and the fried chicken is much better than KFC. The chicken is so crunchy and the potato cakes and flake is so nostalgic, everything fish and chips used to be like.

  • House-Made Steamed & Fried Dim Sims

    Unlike standard commercial frozen items, the dim sims are handcrafted in-house for exceptional flavor and quality.

    The flake was freshly battered, the potato cakes were generous with the potato filling, and the homemade dim sims were cooked to perfection.

  • Personal First-Name Family Service

    Long-time patrons are recognized and personally welcomed by the couple who run this classic family business.

    Proprietors clearly care about their customers some of whom are on a first name basis, very old fashioned and wonderful to see.

Before you head over

Practical advice on payment, menu picks, and late dinner pickups

  • Bring Cash for Payment

    Bring cash before arriving, as the venue only takes cash; a nearby petrol station has an ATM if you need to withdraw funds.

  • Choose the Regular Dim Sims

    Opt for the regular South Melbourne-style or homemade dim sims rather than the mini version, which offers minimal filling.

  • Late-Night Dinner Pickups

    If you need a late-night meal when other spots are closed, this shop stays open past 9 PM and packs food that remains crunchy on the drive home.
