Always have to get to Manly after arriving in Sydney. Took the ferry over and went straight to the Fish Market. It was the same as our last visit except the prices had increased a bit. Still long lines with happy people. Still only two tables and 99 % takeaway. Just as our last five visits we were lucky enough to grab a table!!! We ordered basically the same as we have on previous visits. Might have ordered one or two more shrimp! We had too much food this time around. We managed to eat all 9 prawns....they were really large...butterflied and crumbed. We also ordered the small chips. Thank goodness, we had too much food. The wait was not too long especially depending on how long the line was. Food always arrives piping hot. The guys that work here are slways helpful and friendly. Recommend picking up some great, reasonably priced seafood and taking to the beach for a nice meal. Will definitely return again this morning nth and hopefully again in January 2025! read more

This place has the best fish and chips in Manly Beach. That's probably why there's a line around the corner all the time it's super fresh and flavorful you gotta get the tartar sauce too. read more

Honestly, the food is just Meh. Lots of fries, and a relatively small hunk of fish with a drink for $23. I've tried them twice, and while the food is OK, I've seen better deals around Manly. I probably won't be back again after two somewhat disappointing meals. read more

Got the take away lunch fish n chips for myself and calamari for the person with me. They were both average as far as deep fried seafood goes. I paid extra for the tarter sauce and it was pretty good since its homemade. The French fries were larger sized potatoes and tasted pretty good. I usually like ketchup with my fries but that isn't really served here. I think ketchup period is kinda an American thing. It's considered tacky to ask for it. Lol. Oh well, I added a little salt and they were pretty delicious! They also sell a variety of fresh seafood and even offered recipe cards for ideas on cooking the fish you buy. The staff was quick to help and the wait wasn't very long. We ate across the street at Manly beach which always offers incredible views! read more

There's nothing like a slab of barramundi on the barbecue, and I've had some of the best from the Manly Fish Market. Give them 24-hours notice and they'll bring in whatever size you need, and prepare it so you're down to marinating and cooking - yum! And they're not short of advice either - we wanted to replicate a dish we'd had in Thailand, and they were able to advise on just how to marinate without overdoing the cooking in the acidic lime. Of course if it's more the instant fix you're after, this is a cafe too, where the chef will whip up a dish from your chosen piece of fish, or your can switch to take-away and grab your portion with chips to enjoy outdoors. For me though, the true plus of this place is that its the next best thing to getting to the fish market in town at 5am when the boats come in - they'll do it for you. read more

Came here based on the reviews and was glad we did it. We got the fish only (hake) and the grilled basa with salad. Both orders came out hot. Meat was moist and tender. The batter was just right. The salad came with a standard vinaigrette dressing. I was surprised that it's quite a lot. They have an array of seafoods that you can ask them to cook. Most people just do take out as The place is small. Only 2 tables. You can take your order and eat it at one of the many benches across the beach. This is one of the best fish and chips (although we didn't get chips) I've ever tried. Really not to be missed when you are in Manly. read more

Lovely place for fried hake. Great that they do fish and chips without the chips. We found light batter to be perfect. Just add a squeeze of lemon and extra salt and it's a well portioned meal. read more

Nice take away place for classic fish and chips. The use hake to make their battered fish. They also have grilled fish if you. Don't like deep fried seafood. Sauces are an additional $2.50 per container. read more

It's a balmy Sunday evening and I'm hungover as hell so greasy old school fish n chips are in order. I'm told this is the place to head by locals in the know, so I don't argue. There's a hefty line up which is a good sign, but I'm not a big fan of queues - especially after a big one. Order placed, and the wait is significant. We're told 10 minutes but it's more like 25 plus. I personally like to drown mine in tartare. Alas, the family box arrives with two teeny squeezable tartares and I have to get in line all over again to get more because there's only one man taking the orders. The potato scallops are golden delicious and I could eat them till the cows come home, but unfortunately only one has my name on it. The batter on the fish is soggy, as are the chips... the seafood sticks are limp... and there are only two measly prawns and 6 small calamari amid enough (soggy) chips to sink a chip. I'm pretty disappointed because this just didn't cut the mustard, and I regret not going to Fishmongers around the corner. read more

Not great. We ordered fish and chips and it tasted alright but we all got sick after eating there...

I loved going here when I lived in Manly. I would do my grocery shopping and then stop to pick-up fish to cook for dinner that night. They are also my favourite option for fish and chips takeaway in Manly. I definitely recommend getting takeaway and then sitting near the beach on a weekend - good times. read more

I was in Manly recently and this place beckoned when we decided on fish and chips on the beach for lunch. Price was reasonable for location and quality, everything was cooked well and the serving sizes were as expected. read more

great spot for fish and chips. We got the fish and chips to go and then walked down to the beach to eat it- just beware that there are lots of seagulls over there read more

Pretty average food really, fish was not fresh and it was cooked in old oil that should have been changed ages ago. It was also provided in a nasty plastic bag, the same ones you see flying down the beach while you are eating. It's all just a bit cheap really read more

Brilliant fresh and tasty food with a great range. Flake isn't on the menu but you shouldn't be ordering that anyway. If your looking for a recommendation get the grilled salmon with 1/2 chips n 1/2 salad, cross the road and eat it on Manly beach. read more
