About
Port Kennedy Fish and Chips, known locally as The Chippy, is a fish and chip shop in Port Kennedy that draws a loyal crowd with its made-from-scratch approach. The menu features cod, shark (gummy), mussels, and a standout fisherman’s basket, alongside a notable point of difference: diners can choose between British-style hand-cut chips or Aussie-style chips. Everything is cooked to order, and regulars consistently praise the freshness that comes with that approach.
The batter here has earned strong praise from many who visit. Thin, crispy, and well-seasoned, it wraps fish including snapper, whiting, and gummy shark in a way that keeps the inside juicy. The squid rings are noted as tasting freshly prepared in-house. The hand-cut chips, in particular, attract repeat visits from those who appreciate real potatoes over frozen alternatives.
Opinions across the broader review base are mixed, so expectations may vary on a given day. On the positive side, staff have a reputation for being welcoming and for addressing issues when they arise.
The shop offers dine-in seating and takeaway, with delivery also available. A kids’ menu makes it a practical option for families, and the venue is wheelchair accessible with free parking on site.

8 Reviews on “PORT KENNEDY FISH AND CHIPS (THE CHIPPY)”
The Chippy shop is not a good place to buy fish and chips. After getting some recommendation about how good the shop was I went over to try. When I entered the shop I was surprised that they had no cod and haddock. My fish was soggy and my chips were oily and not nice to eat. I bought a chipbutty and the bread was stale. This is just my opinion. Try it for yourself and see the results.
PS I sent my good review without even trying your food, when I tried the fish and chips they weren’t nice and my burger was stale. This is what got served to me and not what my mother said about another incident.
You need to stop fighting battles with customers which has happened in the past and let it be. Your shop could be gone.
One of the best in town !
We went there to takeaway some snapper, whiting, gummy shark with chips , it’s delicious, crispy outside and juicy fish inside , also the squid ring look like fresh make in store .
We would comeback and recommend for friends & family
First time trying this fish and chip shop tonight. An absolute delight. The “British style” hand cut chips are without doubt the best chips I have had in a very long time. The fish was a decent piece and cooked perfectly. I would definitely recommend these guys. Thank you for a lovely dinner 👍
Best fish and chips I have ever had. The home made chips are awesome and the food is always fresh. The batter recipe is the best I have ever tasted the fish is always nice and crispy. The staff are also very nice and welcoming, I would definitely recommend this place. But the British hand cut chips can go all hard if they sit too long, so if you are late to pick up your order the Aussie cut chips would be a better choice as they stay crispier for longer.
Just had chips delivered , obviously warm up’s from yesterday , dry , shrivelled and disgusting . My friend just got fresh ones at the same time as her fella picked them up and sent me a photo , totally different
Absolutely delicious Snapper and home made chips! 😋 Phone ordered 40mins in advance. All ready for pick up when I walked in the door. 5 🌟 🤩 ⭐️ 🌠 💫 stars.
Absolutely hands down THE BEST fish and chips shop around. Fresh cut REAL chips..not that frozen rubbish. Plus you have a choice of British Chips or Aussie Chips 🍟
Always cooked to order which ensures the Freshness.
Curry sauce is delicious too.
Definitely recommend 👌 👍 👏 😀
I dont usually leave reviews but this place has been hard done by some shitty reviews i saw there’s even one that the person praises the place, says 5 stars but then its down as a 1 star review. Ordered a fisherman’s basket and everything was fine 5 star
