Local fish and chips on the wharf. Lovely spot and a must try are the oysters. It's busy, so don't expect a 5 minute turn around in order time. It's busy for a reason!

The service from the staff is some of the worse ive seen, they switch off during ordering, continue conversations with each other, make random noises..

The fish itself looks beautiful and fresh with alot of variations to choose from.

Between us we had gurnard, oysters, shark, potato fritters and chips.. the fritter was thin and a bizzare texture, and the grilled shark we asked for was deepfried with no flour or flavour (after finishing it appears they have no grill which they should have said) - the gurnard, ousters and chips were great!

The shop overall is run down and needs improvement

I have eaten here several times, never disappointed. Order at the counter and sit outside at picnic tables and bring a jacket. Can be a bit cold outdoor seating but food is good. Do not feed seagulls or they will finish your lunch . Only street parking or pay to park in lot by the railroad tracks.

Spent $20 on a piece of snapper, 2 potato fritters and 2 fresh oysters. I found the price expensive. I expected proper potato fritters but they were those perfect circle fritters that have been processed and taste like crap. However, the fish was beautiful and fresh and could've been fabulous except, the batter was thick and undercooked in parts. The oysters were lovely, so fresh and salty and a little sweet but cost $3.60 each (raw). I also bought a mussel fritter for $6 from the guy out the front of the shop (you must pay by cash) and I felt ripped off as there was hardly any mussels inside the skinny, undercooked fritter. If I had only purchased a piece of fish and a lemon for 90 cents then I would have been happy. I really can't comprehend why fish and chip shops sell processed potato fritters???

The best fish and chips in the Bay of Plenty. Can eat there or takeaway. Fresh fish and beautiful surroundings with table and chairs by the sea at Tauranga harbour
