About
Clinton Takeaway is a popular spot in central Gladstone serving lunch and dinner for takeaway or delivery. The menu covers the classics you’d expect from a Queensland fish and chip shop, with fish, chips, potato scallops, and burgers all on offer, plus a kids’ menu that makes it a practical choice for families.
The fresh fish gets a mention from regulars, who note it comes out well cooked, and the chip serve is considered solid value for the area. Friendly staff add to the appeal for both locals and visitors passing through. One item that genuinely surprises people is the lime thick shake, a signature that earns its own praise and is worth trying alongside the main meal.
Reviews are decent across a fair number of visits, though experiences can vary, particularly with delivery orders where temperature and accuracy have occasionally fallen short. Walk-in customers during busy periods may also find wait times stretch longer than expected, so calling ahead is a practical move, especially at dinner.
Wheelchair-accessible parking and entrance are available on-site, with additional street parking nearby. The shop handles a broad crowd well, from solo diners to groups and tourists exploring Gladstone. Phone ahead during the dinner rush to keep things moving smoothly.

Best value of fish and chips for what I have tried around here in Gladstone, and tasted great too though I did always feel a little sore throat after having half a serving every time (could be the oil). Friendly staff. Tips: Always call ahead to order and go there for pickup or dine in, it saves time.
Ordered through Uber eats
All Meals/items all cold.
Chips, cheese and gravy – poor portion. Barely any cheese and gravy.
Kids burger meal, all cold, received wrong poptop I ordered.
Ordered extra gravy, never received.
After many yummy orders, this is huge disappointment.
All our food had hair in it. They also forgot a dagwood dog for my kids. Will never return to this shop. Lost my business 👎
The fish has always been fresh & cooked to perfection everytime I’ve been there.
You will go a long way to buy better takeaway food. The lime thick shakes are the best.
Haven’t visited this place since leaving for Brisbane decided to visit with family to grab 2 burgers and $4 worth of chips, my mistake for not realising that it takes 55 minutes to do this while serving 12 door dash and uber orders in between, multiple other walk ins as they’ve only ordered deep fried food.
Would never recommend coming back here again! I won’t be and will advise anyone to never touch this place, chips left in the “hot” station for 20 minutes and told “oops these are yours” Multiple other restaurants are able to achieve a respectable time in providing food, quality of the food is not worth a 55 minute wait let alone 25.
Once again make sure you allocate a couple of hours if you decide to walk in, but don’t worry if you order on uber eats/doordash you will be served immediately
Chips very under cook third time now, gravy was a solid and not a liquid.
Will never be coming back.
Great selection of food & drinks. Good location. Friendly staff. Highly recommend
