About Hunky Dory Fish & Chips Richmond

Hunky Dory turns Swan Street fish and chips into a lighter sit-down affair with flame-grilled fillets, vibrant salads, and brown rice. Regulars skip the usual deep-fried slump by building plates around seasoned flake, grilled calamari, and skewered prawns alongside feta-loaded Greek salad. Indoors or on the pavement, the room runs with fast, warm hospitality that keeps tables turning smoothly before MCG bounces. Crisp chips arrive seasoned with chicken salt, backed by complimentary house sauces and cold glasses of sauvignon blanc.

  • Beyond the Deep Fryer: Custom grilled seafood packs pair local flake, calamari, or prawns with made-to-order Greek salad, garden greens, chips, or brown rice.
  • Swan Street Matchday Fuel: Attentive table service and prompt kitchen timing make it a reliable sit-down stop directly on Swan Street ahead of MCG games.
  • Crowd-Pleasing Menu Range: Battered potato cakes, burgers, and dedicated kids' boxes cater comfortably to non-seafood eaters and families.

Why Richmond locals choose Hunky Dory for fresh seafood and sit-down dining

  • Complimentary Sauces & Condiments

    Unlike traditional fish and chip shops that charge for small tubs of sauce, diners enjoy complimentary condiments and sauces at no added cost.

    Love that condiments and sauces are complimentary while most place would charge extra for that!
