About
Van’s Bayside Fish and Chips has built a strong reputation in Birkdale, Queensland, and it’s the kind of place that earns repeat visits. Across a solid number of reviews, it holds well over four and a half stars, with regulars consistently praising the freshness of the food and the value on offer. The batter comes out crispy, the chips are cooked well, and the serves are priced to keep families happy.
The menu goes beyond straight fish and chips. Burgers are a highlight, with the fish burger drawing particular attention for moist, flaky fish and fresh toppings, and the bacon and egg burger getting a solid mention too. The house tartare sauce has developed something of a following, with many noting it tastes genuinely homemade rather than out of a bottle. A good range of drinks rounds out the order nicely.
Van’s caters well to families, with a kids’ menu available and plenty of options to suit different tastes at the table. Dine-in, takeaway, and delivery are all on offer, so it works for a sit-down meal or a quick pickup. Free parking is available on-site and on the street, and the shop is wheelchair-accessible. Staff are noted for being friendly and helpful, happy to talk through the menu.
It’s a modest shopfront, but the food does the talking. For anyone hunting fish and chips near Birkdale, this one is worth the trip. Check opening hours before heading out.

The best burger with the lot and potato scallops we’ve ever had! That’s been our standing order for decades 😁 Delicious food, great value, lovely people.
Terrific family run Fish and Chips. Got a huge serve for the seafood basket, and extra scallops in order, in fact, they were best scallops we have had for years!!! , price was very reasonable. Order was quickly prepared, even with busy crowd, and we drove 10 mins to a local park to eat, everything was delicious and crispy on arrival. Will definitely call in again when visiting this side of town.
Van and his family are friendly, welcoming and put together generous portions. Often a few extras if the portion of fish was smaller. The young staff they employ are always helpful and friendly. The food is good and always fresh.
