My friends and I decided to stop at this place for some food after our time at the beach. I would not be horribly opposed to stopping by again, but with all the shops down Acland Street, you can definitely find somewhere that is higher quality.
The shop itself is a bit rundown with few tables inside, a counter to order, and tiny wooden tables outside. They had a menu of burgers as well as Fish and Chips (also seafood specials of calamari, fish, etc.) There was only one employee there, and he told me they didn't have any burgers at all that day, only Fish and Chips or the seafood basket. A bit disappointing, but that is okay so I just went ahead and ordered Fish and Chips for 8.90 and it comes with a soft drink you grab yourself.
The food is freshly made and comes out in approximately 10 minutes (not bad of a wait for fresh Fish and Chips!). The fish was really really good! Tender, fresh, and delicious! The chips could use a bit of work though. They were a bit tough on the outside and chalky on the inside.
NOTES:
~ You can add sea salt, chicken salt, pepper, and lemon juice for extra flavouring.
~ Ketchup is 35 cents a pack.
~ In the restaurant, they have a few arcade games you can play, but they're old and from the 80s so it probably wouldn't be very entertaining.
Like I said, I would not be horribly opposed to stopping by. The food is alright quality, but nothing I would be excited about.
Things they can improve on:
~ Customer service. The man was not very friendly. He seemed kind of bored.
~ Livening the place up a bit. It is very plain and run-down in compared to the livelihood of the rest of Acland Street. Not very attractive.
~ Improving on the quality of the chips. They were edible, but could be a lot better. read more
