  • Crispy, Clean-Tasting Golden Batter

    Cooked in fresh oil to avoid heaviness, the batter stays light and crisp while letting the chunky fish flakes shine.

    Chunky flakes, fresh and not oily. Just right amount of salt in the crispy chips.

  • Casual On-Site Outdoor Seating

    Unlike cramped walk-up takeaway kiosks, dedicated indoor and outdoor seating provides an easy spot to eat on-site at sunset.

    there was lots of area to sit, even outside which was great as the sun went down.

  • Unpretentious Neighbourhood Value

    Tucked away on a quiet residential side street, this classic shop prioritizes quality cooking and honest value over fancy restaurant markups.

    Unless you are willing to fork out $40 for a boutique slice of fish at a fancy restaurant the situation is dire. Until I discovered Macrina Fish Shop.
