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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are there gluten-free options available?
Yes. Fish can be prepared in a rice-flour coating, and the shop also offers gluten-free burger buns, souvlaki wraps, and gluten-free sauces.
How large are the chip portions?
Chip servings are notably generous—a small serving of chips is large enough to comfortably feed two to three people.
Can you order ahead by phone during peak hours?
During high-volume periods, phone ordering may be temporarily turned off to prioritize walk-in customers. In those busy moments, expect to order in person with a typical wait of 20 to 30 minutes, though standard orders often take 8 to 12 minutes.
Where is the easiest place to park?
Direct parking right out front can be difficult due to tourist traffic and day-tripper buses. Visitors often find it easier to duck into a nearby side street for street parking rather than navigating the main bays.
