About
Wright’s Fish & Chips MilkBar is a well-regarded fish and chip shop serving The Basin and the surrounding Ferntree Gully area. With a strong reputation built on consistent quality, the shop draws regulars and first-timers alike, and it’s easy to see why people make the short trip from neighbouring suburbs to visit.
The food is made fresh to order, with a crispy batter that regulars keep coming back for. Fried fish and scallops are clear favourites, and the onion rings get a mention too. Chips arrive hot with a classic chicken salt finish, and the burgers offer solid value at an affordable price point. Portions are generous without stretching the budget, which makes this a practical choice for families and casual weeknight meals.
Service here is warm and friendly, with the family ownership making a genuine impression on the people who walk through the door. Long-term locals who return after years away consistently find the quality unchanged, which speaks well of the kitchen’s standards over time. Dine-in and takeaway are both available, the venue is family friendly, and the premises are wheelchair accessible with free parking on site.
For anyone hunting fresh fish and chips in The Basin or passing through on the way from Ferntree Gully, this one is worth putting on the list. Phone ahead during the dinner rush to keep wait times short.

After being away for years, coming back to fantastic fish ‘n’ chips is awesome.
Were great then, still great now with friendly family owners. Great work guys.
Do ya self a favour 🐟 🍟
Nice service, lovely people, but…. damn the fish and chips is terrible. Actually inedible. Ordered grilled flake, scallops, and chips. The flake were crucified to the point of being stringy and chewy. The scallops were small and definitely not fresh. Everything cooked in oil that tasted filthy.
Avoid
The fried fish was delicious, onion rings were yummy too. Scallops were juicy as. Friendly owner.
Wanted to get fish and chips around Ferntree Gully station and decided to try this place about 5 mins drive away. It was a right choice as the fish and chips were fresh and super crispy. Will definitely return for more.
Amazing fish and chips! They made it all fresh to order and the batter was very tasty. Prices were super reasonable and service was lovely! Highly recommend.
After reading good reviews on Google about this fish and chip shop we decided to give it a try. Drove there to see its a small general store with a small added F&C added section.
Instantly noticed a distinct bad smell of old fat wafting in this shop, promptly turned around and walked out. No way known were we going to eat their product that is prepared and cooking in old smelly fat.
Place feels cheap and is overpriced. Good for local easy purchases, however prices are a scam, so many products are out of date yet they dont remove them even after saying so, and service was mediocre. Barely got a hi, no smiles nothing… got small hot chips though, despite looking and tasting cheap the serving size was quite good. Don’t go here unless u have to.
Affordable and food is delicious. Cannot go wrong with $10 for a good burger that fills you up. Chips are fresh and hot with the classic chicken salt. Will come back for more!
