The fish selection alone gives plenty of reason to visit, with Orange Roughy, Flake, Barramundi, King George Whiting, and Cod all on offer alongside Salt and Pepper Calamari and the shop’s own Stack-It Burger.

First time ordering from captains cove was great. The fish was definitely the best tasting out of the area and the serving size was pretty generous. The staff was extremely friendly and service was quick!
Quality and value for money is amazing! Have been coming for months and it only gets better!
Best fish and chips I have ever had. P/C burger is always a go to.
Wonderful fish and chips! Burger was brilliant and hands down the best potato cake we’ve had in a very long time! Thanks so much
Fantastic fish and chip shop with great value for your money. Been visiting this place for over 5 years now. Their burgers are amazing, definitely don’t sleep on them. Potato cakes are actual sliced potatoes, and not mash.
Help support small businesses, it’s so important to keep things local and not just big name brands everywhere.
We Ate here for the first time this week. Chips were fantastic, potatoes cakes average. The issue I have is if I’m paying $25 for a single souvlaki then I expect it to dance on my tastebuds. Unfortunately the mixed souvlaki was half empty with 6 large pieces of meat in it and the bread felt like it had just been taken out of the freezer.
probably one of the best fish n chips i have had in years! the shop was very clean and the workers were absolutely amazing and so kind, even gave us extra food and chicken salt!!
Place was empty. Stood there for several minutes before being served for lunch on a Tuesday. Rang the bell on the front counter to get some service. Wished I had left before ordering. Flake was crisp on outside with a very dough like inside. Not nice. Dim sim was the best part. Potato cakes were very average. I am checking out Fish and Chip shops in mt area, and this place is a non visit for me.
Chips half cooked ordered deep sea cod in batter. Fish was sloppy. Will NEVER order there again
