About George & Kids Fish & Chips

Fresh cuts await behind glass at this old-school Greek fish-and-chip counter along the Western Highway. Pick your fillet straight from the chilled display case—from snapper to flake—and call your cook, whether that means a dip in batter, a dusting of crumbs on the grill, or a sear straight over the flat-top. Travelers pull off the bitumen specifically for clean oil, hot potato cakes, and thick-cut chips dusted in chicken salt.

  • Countertop raw fish display: Raw fillets sit in a chilled front display case, letting customers choose their cut to be battered or cooked to order on the spot.
  • Grilled and crumbed options: Seafood orders can be grilled or crumbed and seared on the flat-top instead of taking a turn in the standard deep fryer.

Why Choose George & Kids Fish & Chips

Why travelers and locals choose George & Kids for fresh fish and chips in Stawell

  • Fresh Fish Display Cabinet

    Diners can inspect raw fish fillets arranged in the counter cabinet and choose their catch before it is cooked.

    Fresh fish on display. I have NEVER seen that in any fish and chip shop.

    Pauline Martyn

  • Battered to Order in Clean Oil

    Fresh fillets are battered to order right in front of customers and fried in clean oil for crisp, non-greasy takeaway.

    The fish is there for you to pick, freshly battered in front of you, perfect potato cakes and chips, all cooked in clean oil.

  • Custom Crumbed and Grilled Preparations

    Unlike shops limited to deep fryers, seafood can be ordered crumbed and grilled or prepared across multiple cooking styles.

    We ordered crumbed fish which was crumbed and then grilled. Not deep fried. Absolutely delicious.

    Pauline Martyn

  • Tailored Grilling Options

    Customers who prefer lighter meals can request seafood like prawns grilled rather than battered and fried.

    If you like your fish grilled as we do, ask about the various options. We have tried 3 and all have been good.

  • Reliable Western Highway Refueling

    Positioned right off the Western Highway, it offers long-distance travelers an effortless hot meal stop between regional Victoria and Melbourne.

    Driving the Western highway? One fillet of your choice of fish and minimum chips will get you to Melbourne no worries.

    Road trippers heading through Stawell or visiting the Grampians rely on fast service and hot food that travels well.

    Driving through Stawell on the way to Melbourne, needed some food. Stopped at George and kids. Service was fast and friendly, chips were first class.

Beyond the menu

Thoughtful touches and bespoke preparation across your visit

  • Counter-Display Fish Selection

    Customers inspect and pick raw fillets directly from a refrigerated display case before staff freshly batter or cook them to order.

  • Custom Crumbed and Grilled Cooking

    Beyond traditional deep-frying, fillets and seafood can be crumbed and then grilled or cooked straight on the grill upon request.

  • After-Hours Dine-In Welcome

    Late arrivals near closing time are warmly invited inside to sit at tables and enjoy their meal while the team cleans up.

  • Toasted and Buttered Buns

    Burgers are assembled on buttered, toasted buns rather than standard untoasted burger rolls.

Before you head over

Practical advice for ordering, wait times, and choosing your meal at this highway stop

  • Expect Peak Wait Times

    During peak dinner rushes, expect waits of around twenty minutes after ordering due to steady customer traffic. Plan ahead or call ahead if you are on a tight schedule along the highway.

  • Pick Your Fish at the Display

    Walk up to the counter fridge to inspect and choose your preferred cut of fresh fish, then request it freshly battered, crumbed, or grilled to order.

  • Ask About Grilling Options

    If you prefer a lighter, non-fried meal on your road trip, ask for your fish or prawns to be grilled or crumbed and grilled rather than traditionally battered.
