About
Forbes Fish and Chips Shop is a well-regarded takeaway and delivery spot in South Plympton, serving up classic Australian fish and chips to locals and visitors across the southern Adelaide suburbs. The shop holds halal certification, offers vegan and vegetarian choices alongside a salad bar, and has a dedicated kids’ menu, making it a solid option for families of all kinds.
The menu leans into generous, old-school portions. Thick-cut golden chips are a highlight, and regulars note the serves are notably large for the price. The butter fish, made with hake, is cooked well and draws repeat visits, while the calamari pack regularly surprises first-timers with its size. Potato fritters and seafood sticks round out the traditional side of the menu, and the grilled chicken with fish and chips sits as one of the signature combinations worth trying. Chicken burgers also get a strong mention from those who lean away from seafood.
The service here gets just as much attention as the food. The staff are known for being warm and friendly, the kind of experience that turns a passing stop into a regular visit. Kerbside pickup is available for those in a hurry, and free on-site parking makes the whole trip easy. Wheelchair-accessible parking and entry are both provided.
Open Wednesday through Sunday for lunch and dinner, Forbes Fish and Chips Shop is a reliable choice for anyone looking for a well-priced, generous feed in South Plympton. Phone ahead during the dinner rush to keep things moving.

Absolutly awesome, every thing is reasonably price. Old school style chips, very thickly cut and also a very generous severing. The fish was done very well along with every thing else that I got.
Not the best food use to be fantastic until it changed owners
Had rude service where they didn’t include everything that was supposed to come in the meal and then said it was my fault because I didn’t tell them I wanted said item even tho it’s meant to come with it anyway
Orderd on uber . Got the snitty pack sent the wrong salads the Greek salad has mouldy cucumbers and quite obviously on its last day yesterday. No gravy on the snitty which is needed for a hot pack asked for a caesar salad and got a pasta one ? Definitely not coming back
Just happened to be driving past, saw their sign so we stopped. Lovely friendly people. Their grandchildren served us and were very sweet. Got fish and chips for 4 people and we all agreed it was very good. We will definitely go there again. Well done team.
Fish & spring roll were fine but the chips not so good.
AB combo pack and Chicken burger bang on! Fresh fish cooked beautiful. Service worth more than 5 star! Definately must try when in Adelaide!
One of the best fish and chips I have had and amazing service.
Food here is so delicious!
I ordered a Calamari pack expecting it to be decent size, but when I received my meal it was much bigger then I thought for a good price!
I loved it and I’m definitly coming back!
