About Olinda Fish & Chips

Olinda Fish & Chips serves crisp, ungreasy takeaway staples right in the Dandenongs, cutting every chip in-house from regional Gembrook potatoes. Regulars bypass fussy tourist menus for classic Australian milk bar hamburgers, tender grilled flake, and light-battered blue grenadier dusted with chicken salt. The kitchen accommodates gluten sensitivities with rice flour batter, GF burger buns, and wraps, boxing orders neatly alongside lemon wedges and house sauces for an easy lawn picnic down the road.

  • House-Cut Gembrook Chips: Chips are cut in-house from locally grown Gembrook spuds rather than poured from frozen commercial bags.
  • Gluten-Free Batter & Buns: Dedicated rice flour batter, gluten-free burger buns, wraps, and sauces cater directly to dietary needs.
  • Picnic-Ready Packs: Generous packs come neatly packed with lemon wedges and dipping sauces, ready for park lawns.

    To safeguard food quality and prevent excessive wait times during busy peak hours, remote phone lines are capped for walk-in orders.

    they sometimes switch the phones off when they have lot of orders, to allow capacity for walk ins

Before you head over

Practical tips on busy periods, local parking, and dietary adjustments.

  • Expect Walk-In Waits at Peak Times

    During high-volume periods, staff switch off the phone lines to manage queue capacity, so plan to order at the counter and allow 20 to 30 minutes for fresh preparation.

  • Seek Parking on Nearby Side Streets

    Due to heavy tourist traffic and tour buses in central Olinda, skip the main designated parking lots and seek parking on a nearby side street instead.

  • Request Rice Flour Batter and GF Items

    Gluten-sensitive diners can request fish prepared in a rice flour batter, alongside gluten-free burger buns, wraps, and gluten-free sauces.
