I was indecisive about whether to choose red or purple kumara fries, and the staff suggested I try half of each. What a clever solution! I had a few minutes to dash across the street for a drink to accompany our meal, and by the time I returned—around 10 minutes later—the food was ready. Excellent! Arriving home with the large takeaway bag, I was met with eager anticipation. As we unwrapped the food, there were pleased murmurs and the sound of plates clattering, followed by the pops of ketchup bottles. When we revealed the feast before us, there was a brief moment of silence as we absorbed the sight—just take a look at the photos below to see why! We were welcomed by an incredible aroma and an amazing array of dishes. The fish was fresh and cooked to perfection, a clear sign of a skilled kitchen. The kumara fries were among the best I’ve ever had, especially the orange ones—crispy and sweet! However, my favorite was definitely the spring roll. It stood out from the typical offerings found at local fish and chip shops; it was light, fresh, and crispy. The food was fantastic, the wait was minimal, and the price was wallet-friendly. That's three thumbs up from me! Definitely give this place a try!

They say it's the best burger I've ever had, so I plan to go back. I’ve heard a lot of people say the fish isn't good, but I'm going to give it a try.

The hot dogs are the best from here and the chips were cooked perfectly, fish was good and the doughnut was yum! Although the doughnut was smaller than your average doughnut, I would have bought more if I'd know before hand.
