Overcooked fish that falls apart & looks like it has been mashed. Potato cake i wondered if it was cooked, it was horrible. Prawn cutlets overcooked & so chewy, looked liked snails not prawns. Asked & paid for extra lemon, did not get it. Seafood sticks, they just forgot to add these to our order, when i went & asked they said they would cook for us, 20 minutes later still waiting. There are lots of places we drive past on our way to "Shelly Inn", they will get my money next time.

When we first walked in this place it looked really good…read more They have really good pricing and the cafe has been really well looked after. The food tasted really good but my partner thought the fish was a bit oily but when I was eating it tasted ok to me. It wasn't until the car ride home that my tummy started to disagree with all the oil I had eaten. Besides this factor it is differently worth the drive out. To have a nice meal with an amazing view. Another plus is that it has Eftpos. (Most small Fish and Chip place are still cash only) They had really good vaule for money. As our fish and chips was enough for two people. I also liked the factor that they had their manu on a TV screen witch made it easy to view what they had on offer. Over all would reccomand this place.

The fish wasn't as good as it usually is, and the chips could have been cooked a bit longer. That said, the potato scallops were nice and the pineapple fritter was delicious. We asked for cod, yet the flesh wasn't as firm, flaky and 'full' as I've enjoyed there before. That said, it's still a great place for fish and chips and I really do like the potato scallops there. The pineapple fritter is always a highlight.

Flinders Parade is besieged by restaurants and cafes plating-up Fish & Chips and other deep-fried…read moreseafood sensations at Sandgate, one of Brisbane's most idyllic suburban waterfront locations. But there's only one that has seasoned restauranteur David Balish at the helm, steering his Sandgate Fishmonger flotilla of favourites to the foreshore of first choice. David has been dazzling as a chef for over 30 years and has owned three restaurants in this time; Harolds of Spring Hill, Sonomas of Wilston and Sonomas of Sandgate. When family became more important than long slogs in the kitchen, he shelved the latter and opened Sandgate Fishmonger on the former site of Sonomas. And he hasn't looked back since. On a recent visit we had two Cod & Chips ($14 each), a serving of Calamari ($13) - and voted the best by his Mum - and two big, juicy Moreton Bay prawns ($3.75 a piece). All items, except the chips, were lightly crumbed and flash-fried in record time. Superbly cooked, non-greasy, the Cod thickly sliced and moist, the Calamari - well, you can believe his Mum. And those prawns were just perfection. The only downside we found were the chips - not as hot, toasty brown and crisp as they could be, and which cooled down the most with the takeaway meal so perhaps eat those first. Another small whine is paying $2 for a tiny tub of tartare sauce, which is also the same for options like aioli, tomato sauce for your chips, etc. But these are trite grievances for a grander experience of casual, classic seaside seafood choices in a setting that even Rick Stein would appreciate. Ahoy! Your appetite has permission to come aboard. You can see the full menu for Sandgate Fishmonger at their Facebook page which shares the same name. Enjoy!

Great for a change and nicely cooked. Be prepared for vinegar and other strange condiments at the store. I would have given it a higher rating except for a few problems I have encountered. Order different items and you get them all wrapped in seperate butcher paper, sounds good but the waste and space it takes to unwrap everything is stupid. Long waiting time. And only small cans of soft drink available at a place with salty food. No toilets, not really good for large groups as seating is limited and no child seats visible. I like this food but the actual business is not thinking of the patron as much as they could. Or possibly they have grown too large to quickly to think of the small things.

Sadly, I looked at the reviews after I had already ordered…read more Here's the thing. Great location. Beautiful spot. Lots of places to eat there, or walk across the road and eat by the sea. Food is okay. I've had cheaper, I've had more expensive, I've had nicer, I've had worse. I read complaints about rude staff, but they were all polite enough, and despite quite a few people waiting when I got there, the order really didn't take too long. I was going to go for three stars, but I still have the vision in my head.

We have arrived about 6:30pm at night and have had to wait close to 30 minutes for our order because of the sheer number of people also there, hungrily awaiting their food.

Such a shame this place doesn't serve better quality food and better service…read more The fish and chips here are pretty average, we usually don't feel very well after eating here, could be the oil, could just be bad luck? The service is from teenagers and you can tell that most of them don't care about anything except grooving to the too loud music (which would be okay if it was half decent music!) What really disappoints is that they have a big lunch only menu which included some burgers and options other than fish, but of course, that's only at lunch time. Parking is a bit sucky Your better off going next door to the kebab shop, amazing service, and even more amazing food!!
