About Pink Flake Best Fish and Chips

St Kilda beach days demand proper Aussie comfort food—cleanly fried fish and chips right on Acland Street without heavy oiliness. Regulars zero in on the classic sides: thick-cut potato cakes fluffy in the middle and traditional fried dimmies ordered by the fistful. The weekday ten-dollar special packs a generous piece of fish, crisp chips, and salad into recyclable takeaway boxes. Dip tender rings of calamari straight into the herb-flecked dill sauce out on the footpath tables, just moments from the beach.

  • $10 Weekday Lunch Special: Fried fish, chips, and fresh salad bundled into an unbeatable weekday lunch deal steps from the tram.
  • Classic Aussie Sides: Generous, thick-cut potato cakes and quintessential fried dim sims fried clean without heavy oil.
  • Signature Dill Sauce: Herbaceous house dill sauce paired with crisp, tender calamari rings and fresh fried fish.
  • Breezy Seaside Takeaway: Footpath dining a short stroll from the shore, serving everything in recyclable boxes with wooden cutlery.

  • Beachside and Outdoor Dining Vibe

    Guests enjoy hot, crisp fish and chips outdoors on Acland Street or walk down just blocks away to eat along the St Kilda seaside.

    Outdoor seating in St. Kilda, a couple hundred meters off the beach plus fish and chips at that price is awesome.
