About Kookaburra Ave Fish & Chips

Tucked into a quiet Werribee street, this spot serves old-school fish and chips done properly—crispy, light on oil, and generous. Regulars bypass the freezer-pack staples for thick hand-cut potato cakes sliced from real spuds, while the kitchen lets fried flake drain before wrapping to keep the batter crisp on the drive home. Grab a burger with the lot and eat hot out of the paper right on the car bonnet.

  • Hand-Cut Potato Cakes: Potato cakes are sliced in-house from fresh potatoes rather than frozen commercial cuts.
  • Crisp Fried Flake: Fish is drained off the fryer before wrapping so the batter stays crisp instead of steaming.

  • Properly Drained Crispy Batter

    Fried fish is allowed to drain thoroughly post-fry, preventing steam buildup and delivering a consistently crisp, non-soggy coating.

    They let it drain after deep-frying so the batter is crispy, not soggy.

    This fish and chip shop reminds me of when I was a teenager (I'm 55), the prices are the cheapest I've encountered

  • Satisfying Portions That Win Over Picky Eaters

    Generous servings of fresh flake and seafood that are crisp rather than heavy win over even long-time skeptical diners.

    My 2 sons refused to eat battered fish since day one. Now in their 20s I convinced them to try Kookaburra's

    We ordered family pack $46 flakes were decent size and I loved that it wasn’t to greasy. Food was ready on time and my kids enjoyed it too.

  • Crowd-Pleasing Burger Value Deals

    Affordable burger and chips packs offer substantial meals tailored to satisfy both seafood lovers and non-fish diners alike.

    They also come in packs for $12! You get a serve of chips & a drink! Awesome deal and worth every dollar & the drive! Me and my family don’t get burgers from any other fish and chip shop now.
