Practical advice for ordering takeaway on Barkly Street
Expect peak wait times
Peak hours on Friday nights and lunch rushes can get very busy, so allow a bit of extra time if you are passing through or ordering on the run.
Consider grilled fish options
Beyond classic battered flake, you can opt for grilled barramundi or butterfish paired with salad if you prefer a lighter, less oily meal.
Add sauces and lemon separately
Condiments like lemon wedges and dipping sauces are not automatically included with standard fish portions, so be sure to request and purchase them separately.
