About
Jamison Takeaway, Cafe and Restaurant is a casual fish and chip shop in Macquarie, ACT, that does a lot more than the name suggests. The venue holds a well-rated reputation with close to 180 reviews behind it, and regulars keep returning for the fat chips and schnitzel burgers that have become the signatures of the place. Fish and chips can be ordered grilled rather than battered, which is a handy option not every shop in the area offers, and the menu stretches well beyond the fryer to include hamburgers, a salad bar with Greek salad, coleslaw, and seafood salad, plus milkshakes and even a decent cappuccino.
Despite the word “takeaway” sitting prominently in the name, the shop has genuine dine-in seating, including outdoor space, and the atmosphere draws people in to sit down rather than just grab and go. The food comes out hot, the wait times are reasonable, and staff are known for being warm and approachable. There is a Nepalese influence woven through parts of the menu, giving the kitchen a slightly broader range than a straight fish-and-chips venue.
Families are well catered for, with free parking, wheelchair access, and a family-friendly setup throughout. Delivery is available for those who would rather eat at home. Vegan and vegetarian options are on offer, and the menu includes all-you-can-eat selections.
A solid spot for fish and chips in Macquarie, and well worth checking out if you are after a relaxed sit-down meal or a quick takeaway. See opening hours and menu below.

They have Nepalese influence in some of their dishes but you can still order good fish 🐟 and chips 🍟 here and have them grilled (instead of battered). Not extremely busy so shorter wait times than some nearby cafes but decent enough food for a small take-away cafe. Regards @fooderarri
I found the food here to be average. I ordered a Chocolate Milkshake. This was essentially milk blended with chocolate syrup. I found the taste to be quite sugary. I also ordered Fish and Chips.
The fish had a nice golden brown batter, and it came with a lot of chips. I found the fish to be rather greasy and soggy, the oil tasted kind of stale. The fries were not bad, although it was a little too starchy and salted unevenly.
I picked up a Hamburger with Bacon & Egg.
Pretty good for the money
Something warm on a Cold Day
Even though ‘takeaway’ is in the name, there is some beautiful seating here for dining in.
What a fantastic atmosphere even though takeaway but we dine in and the food was delicious…..People were so much friendly….would like to recommend this place to must try on place….
My absolute favourite take away and I dont even live in the area
Love love love that they do fat chips as I call them and I can never say no to their schnitzel burgers
Discovered recently that they also make a good cappuccino
Cant rate atmosphere as normally order through deliveries
Really solid food for an incredible price range. Friendly and consistent staff who get orders out with efficiency and speed.
Ordered via DoorDash. The “Jamison Special” pizza was delicious, and filling!!! We got chips and garlic bread too, the latter was perfect; the former not so much. Bit dry. But everything else was outstading.
