Fish and chips across the Northern Territory sits in the well rated range overall, drawn from a moderate body of customer reviews. A few shops rate especially highly and a few rate poorly, so the listings are worth reading individually. The shops are spread across many suburbs and towns, with Rapid Creek, Darwin City, Alawa, Leanyer, Nightcliff and Jingili among the places that turn up most often.
Barramundi is the fish that appears widely on Territory menus. Flake, prawns and calamari are each on offer at several shops, while mackerel, snapper, salmon and whiting show up occasionally. Potato cakes are widely available, and potato scallops, battered pineapple and burgers are each at several shops. Yiros, seafood sticks and chips are listed occasionally. Traditional Aussie cooking dominates, with Asian fusion and Greek-Aussie kitchens at several shops. Where a batter style is recorded, it is light and crispy.
Every shop here is family friendly. About half offer dine-in and about half offer delivery, so takeaway remains the common thread.
