East Beach Fish and Chips

Crisp, golden coastal takeaway steps from the Port Fairy waterfront makes East Beach Fish and Chips an easy oceanside pick. The counter keeps things straightforward with an a la carte board instead of set family packs, letting you tailor the haul to your appetite. Regulars point to the light, non-greasy batter hugging fresh blue grenadier and whiting, paired alongside crunchy chips and fluffy potato cakes. Beyond the standard deep-fryer fare, the kitchen runs marinated grilled squid alongside house-made burgers stacked with beetroot and egg. For a proper milk-bar spin, order the cheese-stuffed kransky dipped in batter, wrap the parcel in butcher paper, and head forty meters down the road to eat by the water.
