25 of the best fish and chips shops around Perth
Is there anything better than fish and chips from the local takeaway shop on a warm summer’s night?
We’re just gonna go ahead and say, no. And with that grand sweeping statement out there in the balmy summer air, here’s some of the best joints to pick your’s up over the coming months:
Grand Lane Fish House
Tucked away on Grand Lane behind Barrack Street in the city, this might just be Perth’s best fish and chip joint. Their fish tacos are huge, and everything is super-well priced. Irresistible city lunch spot.
135 Barrack Street, Perth
John’s Food & Liquor
We would never want to make light of what was probably a very traumatic incident… But when it comes to John’s Food & Liquor, people will certainly go to great lengths to get their hands on their chips. We can’t think of a more vigorous an endorsement than that, but this chippy has been building a reputation for some of Perth’s best traditional fish and chips for years.
144 Bennett Street, East Perth
Amberjacks
This Cottesloe institution opened up a new joint in Elizabeth Quay a couple of years back, and it’s not surprising given the no doubt thousands of Indian Ocean sunsets they’ve enhanced over the years.
28/94 Marine Parade, Cottesloe
25 Geoffrey Bolton Avenue, Perth
Santorini Fish And Chips
Santorini Fish And Chips have been getting the job done for over 25 years, and with a base level fish and chips only $12.50, it’s not hard to see why. A nice variety of vego options are also available across their three stores.
23/148 Scarborough Beach Road, Mount Hawthorn
2/467 Guildford Road, Bayswater
22F/20 Strelitzia Avenue, Forrestfield
Fish Boss
You can find Fish Boss in Inglewood, and we recommend you get there stat. Their staples are killer, but it’s their second-to-none fish tacos that’ll blow your mind, along with an expansive range of super delicious but also healthy options.
2/882 Beaufort Street, Inglewood
Brighton Fish Supply
Mario & Phylis have been serving up quality local produce for three decades (!), with the man himself preparing the fish every day. Reasonably priced with plenty of extras, Brighton Fish Supply‘s selection is unreal.
22A Muriel Avenue, Innaloo
Woodlands Fish & Chips
What they lack in pizzazz Woodlands Fish and Chips more than make up for it with flavour and serving size. Always well-staffed with friendly faces to handle even the busiest nights, it’s a western suburbs fave for a reason.
Rosewood Avenue, Woodlands
Lilburne Fish and Chips
Like a few spots in this list, Lilburne specalises in the NZ-style of fish and chips, and have legions of adoring fans at the Duncraig location as a result. Friendly staff, generous portions, quick service – basically the holy trinity of any good fish and chip shop, and Lilburne has ’em covered.
2 Lilburne Road, Duncraig
Oh My Cod
We’re happy for any excuse to hit up Oh My Cod for some OMG-worthy fish and chips. Their WA fish is coated in a super light and crispy batter, while Pemberton-grown spuds make Oh My Cod’s chips extra tasty. On a cold winter’s night, you’ve got to dive into a comforting bowl of their moqueca, a Brazilian seafood stew.
73 Royal Street, Tuart Hill
Moolanda Fish & Chips
The key to a top fish and chip joint is the serving size, and Moolanda out in Kingsley are the kings of big portions. Even though it gets crazy busy in there you’ll always be served with a smile, and it won’t cost you an arm and a fin.
Shop 4/127 Moolanda Boulevard, Kingsley
The British Chippy
Given Perth’s strong ex-pat contingent, it’s no wonder The British Chippy is the favourite of many of our northern suburbs friends. They’ve got a few interesting options (battered burger, haggis anyone?) that’ll keep you coming, but its their commitment to the traditional British fish and chip that keeps ’em coming back.
Lukin Centre, 2 Captiva Approach, Butler
Currambine Central, 1244 Marmion Avenue, Currambine
151 The Promenade, Ellenbrook
Eureka Fish & Chips
One of Perth’s premier fish and chippys in the 80s, Eureka Fish & Chips was revived in 2018 much to the delight of loyal customers from over the decades. They’ve got a huge menu with some competitive prices, and the batter is always light and crispy without making you feel like you’re gonna sink to Davey Jones Locker afterwards. Plus if you do want to be a little naughty, they sling a naughty deep fried mars or snickers bar as well.
16 Eureka Road, Wilson
Broadway Seafoods
You’ve got a couple of options in this neck of the woods (shout-out to Fisch on Broadway), but Broadway Seafoods takes the (potato) cake for us. Always served with a smile (and efficiently), they err a little on the expensive side compared to some, but we’re in the western suburbs baby, and more importantly, you get what you pay for!
130 Broadway, Crawley
Mount Pleasant Fish And Chips
One of the most popular South Perth seafood slingers, Mt Pleasant Fish And Chips gets pretty busy but is always worth the wait.
87 Glenelg Street, Mount Pleasant
Tankk
Bringing a love of fresh local produce up from the south coast of WA, Tankk owners Paul and Anna have spread the love with stores in Como, Melville and Winthrop. Their online ordering system is super handy, and the ice-cream sandwiches are next level.
6/262 Canning Highway, Como
Shop 29/380 Canning Highway, Bicton
Shop 14 Hatherley Parade, Winthrop
Rodney’s Bait n Tackle
While we are sad to report you can’t grab Rodney’s Bait n Tackle‘s fish and chips to takeaway, that’s all the more reason to dive into one of our fave neighbourhood bars for a feed! The decor, the vibe, the drinks… It’s a winner all fronts, not least their superb fish and chips – $25 if you pop in on a Wednesday night.
598 Stirling Highway, Mosman Park
Mosman Park Seafoods
Right in the heart of Mossie Park, Mosman Park Seafoods does good, honest fish and chips just right. Decently priced, their grilled options are delish, and always ready to eat super quick. Ask anyone who lives in the area, Mosman Park Seafoods never fails to disappoint!
46 Manning Street, Mosman Park
Sealanes Fish + Chips
Sealanes is an icon of Freo, having been around as a seafood market since 1928 (and before that a small grocer), its longevity is a testament to the quality found within. It’s prime possy across the road from South Beach means you’ve got spectacular views from the cafe, or its just a short walk to seaside sunset picnic heaven. Shoutout to reader Sarah B for the tip, who said: “Amazing fresh fish, connected to the fish market next door. Beautiful view of south beach across the road while you have your takeaway fish and chips.” It’s open from 12pm ’til 8pm Tuesday-Sunday, meaning you’ve got ample opportunity to enjoy one of life’s most uniquely WA experiences.
178 Marine Terrace, South Fremantle
Piscari Fish And Chips
Piscari on Hampton Rd in Fremantle is another top shelf takeway fish and chip joint. With over 20 years experience, they’ve tightened their menu up to perfection, with a nice mix of Aussie and NZ fish.
99B Hampden Road, Fremantle
Redfish
Redfish in Attadale is the perfect stop for those looking for a bit of dining out action. It’s a little more expensive than your average shop, but worth it for the locally and ethically sourced produce, diverse and delicious menu and variety of different specials each night.
88D Moreing Road, Attadale
Bassendean Seafood
There’s plenty to love about Bassendean’s emergence as one of Perth’s foodie hubs, with the revamped Basso Hotel and Berties doing big business, but you can’t forget the classics! Bassendean Seafood is well-priced and well-staff with friendly faces – you can’t go wrong, and it’s open seven nights a week from 4pm.
38 Cumberland Way, Bassendean
Swannies
Don’t let Swannies‘ distance from the ocean turn you off, they’ve got some of the best hookups to the freshest fish in Perth, and treat it with the respect it deserves. Do yourself a favour and grab yourself some of their famous dhufish bites – the popcorn chicken of the sea!
2/21 Dance Drive, Middle Swan

The Jolly Fryer
Another shop not to be judged by how far away the sea is, the excellent pricing is matched only by The Jolly Fryer‘s extensive range of fish. If you’re feeling a little extra naughty – make sure you grab yourself a tub of their special curry sauce – an absolute winner.
22 Haynes Street, Kalamunda
Swannies by the Sea
Not to be confused with the abovementioned Swannies, we’re casting the net a little wider for this one… If you’re ever in Rockingham and chasing some fish and chips by the beach, Swannies is a must! Owned by “Kiwi Mumma Bernie”, it’s only been open since early 2023 but it’s very quickly adhered itself to the locals as some of the best fish and chips in the west, particularly her already-famous dhu bites AKA popcorn chicken of the sea!
2/304 Safety Bay Road, Safety Bay
Emily’s NZ Fish and Chips
Okay we’re throwing the line out for one more south of Perth must-visit, Emily’s NZ Fish and Chips. You’ll find ’em at Woodbridge Shopping Centre, and Emily’s many, many fans will contest these are the best fish and chips you’ll find in the State, let alone little old Rockingham. Outside of the traditional fare tasting great, we have it on good authority their deep fried Oreo’s will knock your socks off.
2/4 Elanora Drive, Cooloongup
