About
Lakes Seafood is a fish and chip shop in Forest Lake, Queensland, offering dine-in, takeaway, and delivery across breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The menu covers a solid range, including cod, calamari, prawns, and seafood sticks, along with family packs and a hot box for quick bites on the go. Breakfast is also on the menu, with the big breakfast drawing positive attention for being freshly cooked and good value.
The shop is family-friendly with high chairs available, outdoor seating, and wheelchair-accessible parking, entrance, and seating. EFTPOS is accepted, which regulars have noted makes the experience more convenient, with a modest minimum spend applying.
Feedback from the Forest Lake area is mixed. The family pack sizing has been noted as generous, and the calamari and prawns receive reasonable marks. However, some visits have produced inconsistent results, particularly with chips and the quality of the crumbed cod, so expectations may vary depending on the day. The experience tends to work best for those after a casual, affordable meal with a wide variety of options to choose from.

Such fantastic fish & chips + salad for only 11$ ~ Really crunchy and fresh fish. They now have EFTPOS machine too. However $5 minimum which is reasonable. Atleast they have EFTPOS, which makes life so much easier.
We had the big breakfast for only $15.
Very quick with the cook up from scratch and worth it.
They have a variety of food to order and a hot box if you just want a quick bite on the go.
Ordered the family pack, chips, cod, calamari and seafood sticks were good. Not a fan of the potato scallops. Overall was good sizing and excellent service
I ordered the fish+chips+calamari. Customer service was fine. It took at least ten minutes for my order to be ready, which is absolutely fine but the food was not fresh at all. The chips were lukewarm and chewy. Calamari was cold and hard. The battered fish was a big serving but thin and also only lukewarm, and it had this weird off-putting rancid smell, guessing their frying oil is well overdue for a change.
Disappointing, will not be trying it again for the price that it is.
Expensive and awful. The serving size for chips was tiny. We asked for chicken salt twice – we ended up doing it ourselves. The potato scallops were like cardboard, and food wasn’t hot.
Crumbed cod was super thin and had a concerning fishy smell, and chips were hot but no crispy. Other crumbed items like calamari, prawns and seafood stick was okay. Would not go back or recommend.
Spent almost $90 asked for chips to be cooked well done. Chips were under cooked if anything. Calamari was chewy.
asked for extra salt and was given no salt and burned, tough chicken. the gravy was so oddly sweet and chunky, the whole meal was practically inedible, it was REVOLTING, i had to spit it out. this place very obviously doesn’t listen to customer requests judging by past reviews and needs to be trained again in customer service, and the owner needs to double check everyones certificates.
