About (Lara Area)The Centreway Fish & Chip Shop

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.

Before you head over

Practical takeaway tips grounded in local customer feedback

  • Expect peak-hour rushes

    The shop experiences high demand and rush periods, so factor in a short wait or visit slightly outside peak evening takeaway hours for prompt turnaround.

  • Customize chip portions for smaller appetites

    If you are catering to solo appetites or watching your spend, opt for flexible smaller portions like minimum chips or snack add-ons without over-ordering.

  • Explore grill items beyond fish and chips

    Beyond traditional battered flake, the grill serves freshly made hamburgers, steak sandwiches, and souvlakis alongside classic fried sides.
