About
Eastside Fish & Chips has built a loyal following in Alice Springs, with regulars and visitors alike rating it among the best fish and chip shops in the Northern Territory. The batter is consistently praised as light and crisp without being greasy, and the fish is cooked through without losing moisture or texture. Chips arrive in generous portions, and the potato fritters are a reliable crowd favourite.
The seafood stick, sometimes called the “hot dog of the ocean” by those in the know, has become something of a signature order. The recipe is said to have been handed down across ownership changes over the years, which helps explain the consistency that keeps people coming back. For a takeaway-only fish and chip shop, that kind of continuity is no small thing.
The shop is family-friendly and well set up for a quick lunch or dinner stop, with free car parking and wheelchair-accessible spaces on site. Payments by card and mobile are accepted. Tourists passing through Alice Springs regularly make a point of stopping in, and more than a few have come away surprised by just how good a suburban Territory fish and chip shop can be.
Phone ahead during the dinner rush to keep wait times short.

I really shouldn’t be writing this review… I don’t want to have to wait too long for the best fish and chips in town!
Seriously though, can you go past how they package the chips? They know 😂
Nice fish and chips, but a tiny portion for $21.the first bite of the barra was all batter. Although it was tasty I would not pay that again.
Unfortunately, no one makes fresh chips anymore. It is really sad.
The service was great, the fish was tasty, chips were the standard frozen fare, so nothing great.
I will be going back.
The quantity was O.K. for the price.
Ordered Barra and chips and tartar sauce and the order comes out as just over cooked chips and tartare sauce ! We’ll guess I’ll enjoy my tartar sauce and chips for dinner after a long drive yum!
Absolutely love the fish and chips here. I have tried fish&chips all over the world, Melbourne and right through Queensland fishing towns and I truthfully find no where near the quality. Best fish and chip ever! Glad it’s still running as I’ve been a customer since the 90s ❤️
Frozen chips, oil not clean, surcharge for debit card, expensive overall. Very tired and dated interior.
The Fish and chips from the East side place in Alice Springs has the best ever Fish.
The fish is just divine, not oily, not soggy… lovely crisp batter on perfectly cooked fish.
Chips good, potato fritters good.
My favorite fish and chip place. Same recipe handed down between owners for decades – this is the best! Recommend the seafood stick aka “hot dog of the ocean”
