A classic Lara takeaway serving flaky battered fish, crisp chips, and handmade potato cakes straight from clean fryers. You can watch the fryers in action behind the counter while waiting for your order. Alongside fresh flake and butterfish, the kitchen turns out steak sandwiches, lamb souvlakis, and hefty hamburgers loaded with grilled onions. Portions are generous enough to split—or you can just grab a couple of dollars worth of chips for a quick, cheap bite.
- Handmade potato cakes: Traditional potato cakes prepped by hand rather than stamped from frozen mix.
- Open fryer counter: Watch every piece of flake and calamari battered and dropped in clean oil.
- Full grill and fryer menu: Steak sandwiches, souvlakis, and burgers prepared fresh alongside classic fried seafood.
