The venue offers both dine-in seating and takeaway, making it easy to enjoy a meal on the spot or grab something on the move.

The fish burger is the signature item here, and it earns its status. Regulars praise the freshness of the fish, noting batter that crisps up cleanly while keeping the flesh inside tender and flaky.

The shop itself is notably clean and free of the heavy oil smell that sometimes follows a fish and chip shop around. Staff are consistently described as polite, and orders come out quickly even during busy periods.

I never understood what people said when they describe fish as flakey. I now know!! HOOKED have nailed it!! Every single bite of the fish cooked perfectly and the batter was just as good. There was a clear separation between the two which was a bit messy to eat but that made it even better!! That’s when you know you won’t get any uncooked batter to just fries pure goodness. Tartare was good. I think it has garlic too which made it even better!!
Very generous serving, could probably feed two people. If you’re out of town or haven’t tried this place give it a crack.
Great Works Burger. Chips were fresh and crunchy with just the right amount of salt.
Highly recommend!
Hooked Fish and Chippery was spotless—I didn’t notice the oily smell you often get at fish and chip shops. The staff were polite and the service was impressively fast. The crumbed fish was fresh and crisp, and the burger hit the mark: perfectly sized with a satisfying crunch and a soft, fluffy bun. The potato cakes were also crisp and delicious, and nothing we ate tasted greasy. They must be using top-quality oils. From Bermagui, Bondi, and the Gold Coast to the Sunshine Coast, this is by far the most impressive and tasty fish & chip spot I’ve eaten at—and the prices are really good too.
So good from the crispy Barra we got to the delicious squid rings. Service was amazing though but food was excellent. Would recommend.
Fish was as tough as boot leather and was just disgusting. You couldn’t even pull it apart. This was a nice place to get fish but never again now. Really dissapointed.
Best take away the food is great, good dollar value, the fish burger is my go to
Top notch guys, messaged u guys today on fb n still stoked with what I received from entering to leaving. Not 1 complaint and im not easily pleased when it comes to food but hat off. Food was absolutely amazing. You can tell when walk into a place and ceilings and walls arnt cover in a shine of grease that this place has respect not only for themselves but for what they do. At the end of the day like the rest of us all a service needs to rendered when dealing with the public and your service and quality is amazing. Top notch keep up the solid work cheers . 11 on the dot tomorrow to have a crack at them burgers 🍔
