About
Coogee Fish Shop is a casual, classic fish and chip shop serving the Coogee community for lunch and dinner. The menu covers the familiar favourites done well, with fish and chips at the centre, alongside grilled dory, salmon with chips and salad, calamari, burgers, battered savs, and a Greek salad that earns its own share of praise. The chips in particular have built a strong local reputation, consistently described as crisp and well-seasoned, and the fish is noted for being fresh across orders.
The owner is hands-on in the kitchen and that comes through in the food. Regulars point to the care taken with each order, and the service is generally described as friendly and attentive. One visit saw the kitchen run short on calamari, and the owner stepped in with offcuts at no charge, the kind of gesture that keeps people coming back. Salmon cooked to order, with chips and salad on the side, is a popular choice for a satisfying lunch.
Coogee Fish Shop offers dine-in, takeaway, and delivery, making it a flexible option for families, couples, or solo diners. It holds a solid four-plus star reputation across over a hundred reviews, a reasonable reflection of the consistent food and welcoming atmosphere. For anyone after a reliable fish and chips experience in Coogee, this shop is well worth considering. Phone ahead during the dinner rush to keep wait times short.

I ordered the mixed grill with salad, but when I got home I saw there was no salad. Unbelievable—this place is just terrible.
This is the worst restaurant in Sydney! I ordered a grilled barramundi with fries and I couldn’t eat the fish because it was smelling and tasting bad, when I went to tell the owner, he very rudely put his hand (!!!!) on my fish and eat saying that it was good and then he gave me back to eat (!!!!). I said that I wouldn’t eat because it was bad and he refused to refund me even though I gave the food back! Later he said for me to never come back, but I recommend that no one never goes in this place, the food clearly is not fresh neither has a good and hygienic conservation! And the service was the worst I have ever seen.
Food in bad state, horrible service. Employee (or owner) totally disregarded our claim that the fish was smelling and tasting funny, touching and eating the food with his hand and then giving it back in a rude way for us to keep eating.
It can be common that fish is not always well preserved in a fish shop, but then listening to the costumer is essential for a good and respectful service, and over all to prevent food poisoning.
Plenty of good other options in Coogee to eat fish and chips. Not coming back to this place.
The best chips in Coogee by a long shot. It’s a classic fish and chips shop, friendly service and good food. The fish is always fresh and the chips are always crisp. Good Greek salad, too.
My partner and I ordered fish and chips for dinner and we were satisfied! We were told calamari was sold out but the owner went above and beyond and gave us calamari cut offs for no extra charge. Everything cooked to perfection. I love coming to old school takeaways that are run by hard working families. Everyone should have a little patience and a little more kindness because we get food made with care in return <3
great experience ordering food here! owner was very nice and diligent with making the food. Would recommend to others for a good fish and chips.
Ordered salmon with chips and salad. Everything tasted lovely, salmon cooked perfectly. Man who served me was kind and tentative. Thank you for the good lunch 🙂
Good value and tasty burger! Chips were salted perfect! And service was great! Perfect spot by the beach
