About Port Melbourne Chippery

Freshly battered fish fried to order and generous chip packs make this Bay Street takeaway an easy call. Regulars know the drill—skip the pre-fried warmers elsewhere and let the family team drop fresh fish straight into the oil alongside crisp potato cakes dusted in chicken salt. Beyond the classic paper-wrapped cod and chips, the counter turns out spit-roasted lamb souvlaki wrapped in soft bread and hefty house burgers loaded with thick beef patties and grilled onions.

  • Battered to Order: Flake and fillets are dipped in batter and fried only after you order, avoiding soggy heat-lamp holding.
  • Beyond the Fryer: The kitchen pairs traditional fish and chips with spit-roasted lamb gyros, kebabs, and snack packs under one roof.
  • Old-School Burgers: The signature burger stacks an extra-thick beef patty with grilled onions, fresh lettuce, and tomato on a bakery bun.

Why Choose Port Melbourne Chippery

Why Port Melbourne locals and takeaway fans choose Port Melbourne Chippery

  • Fresh Battered Fish Cooked to Order

    Fish is freshly battered and fried to order rather than kept under heat lamps, delivering crisp, tender results alongside generous portions.

    The best thing is that they batter & cook the fish to order so it's NOT pre cooked rubbery fish like most places.

  • Triple-Thick Specialty House Burgers

    Burgers feature exceptionally thick, seasoned beef patties on bakery-fresh buns, surpassing standard takeaway offerings.

    The beef pattie is at least triple the thickness of any of the so-called specialist burger places.

  • Thoughtful, Attentive Table & Group Service

    Staff accommodate group orders seamlessly, splitting value packs to make sharing effortless and providing cutlery without being asked.

    The staff were really respectful and helpful, made sure we had enough plates and cutlery without needing to ask, and even split up the value packs to make it easier for us to share

  • Nostalgic Comfort of Classic Chippery Meals

    The traditional preparation and classic chip shop flavors evoke fond childhood memories of Friday night takeaway rituals.

    Delicious, fresh, tasty. Really made my day and took me back to a time which I loved so much.

  • Reassuring Care When Dinner Plans Are at Stake

    When delivery hiccups happen, the staff step up personally after hours to ensure family dinners never fall through.

    Called the shop and they did us a massive favour and delivered the order themselves to us, which they normally don't do especially on a Saturday night. First time experience and they went above and beyond.

Before you head over

Practical advice on timing, ordering, and group dining at Port Melbourne Chippery

  • Arrive early on warm evenings

    Peak evening rushes can surge quickly in pleasant weather; visit or order earlier to bypass longer takeaway queues.

  • Plan for cooked-to-order timing

    Fish is freshly battered and fried to order rather than hot-held, so allow a few extra minutes for freshly cooked orders.

  • Request split portions for groups

    Takeaway orders can be packed or split into custom portions to simplify sharing across large family groups.
