About The Saltwater Fish Bar

This Abernethy Road chippy nails the takeaway ritual with generous portions of crisp, golden seafood wrapped hot to order. Thick snapper fillets come encased in a light, crunchy batter alongside well-seasoned chips and crispy potato scallops. Bypassing the fryer is just as easy thanks to clean-grilled gummy shark, while regulars watching their wheat intake turn to the dedicated gluten-free options. Outside benches catch the breeze if you cannot wait for the drive home, especially with an order of garlic prawns on the side.

  • Crisp Fried Classics: Thick fillets of snapper and emperor come wrapped hot with crisp chips and golden potato scallops.
  • Grilled Catch Options: Orders can skip the batter entirely with options like grilled gummy shark.
  • Gluten-Free Friendly: The kitchen prepares dedicated gluten-free fish and chips to safely satisfy dietary needs.

  • Light, Crispy Batter and Tender Fish

    The fish is prepared to ensure thick, juicy fillets encased in crisp, light batter that stays crunchy and ungreasy.

    The emperor and snapper were cooked perfectly. The batter was light and crispy, nice flavour and not too oily.
