About Kats Fish & Chips

Tucked into a quiet crescent opposite a leafy park, Kats Fish & Chips nails old-school milk-bar takeaway with clean oil and genuine family banter. The batter on the flake stays crisp, the chips arrive hot with chicken salt, and the counter turns out Greek-style souvlaki alongside classic burgers with the lot. Regulars routinely throw in hot jam donuts and golden potato cakes to unpack across the road.

  • Classic Chipper Fare: Battered flake cooked to order with hot chips, potato cakes, and dim sims drained crisp.
  • Souvlaki & Jam Donuts: A traditional counter setup dishing out spit-style souvlaki wraps and house-made jam donuts.
  • Parkside Takeaway: Set in a quiet residential loop directly opposite open parkland and playground benches.

  • Road-Trip Takeaway Worth the Detour

    Conveniently located off the main thoroughfare, it provides an easy, fast takeaway meal stop for regional road trips across Gippsland.

    We stumbled across this family run fish and chip shop whilst travelling through in 2021, we found ourselves in the area again today and specifically sought it out.
