About Stanmore Fish & Chips

Stanmore Fish & Chips nails the nostalgic suburban chippy feel—crisp, clean, and free of takeaway grease. Hand-cut chips sliced from whole potatoes hit the fryer alongside fresh white fish clad in an airy tempura batter. Regulars lean toward the fork-tender calamari or thick potato scallops, paired with a lemon wedge and house tartare.

  • Hand-cut chips: Sliced in-house from fresh whole potatoes rather than standard frozen commercial cuts.
  • Tempura-style batter: Light tempura preparation keeps battered hoki and barramundi crisp without excess oil.

  • Light & Crisp Tempura Batter

    Delicate tempura-style batter encases fresh white fish, providing crispness without retaining excess oil.

    Hoki was flaky and fresh and the batter was light and crispy, not too oily.

    the hand cut chips and lightly battered Barramundi fillet were cooked to perfection and still hot when I'd walked to the nearby park to eat them.

  • Potato Scallops

    I also would recommend the potato scallop as they’re much thicker but tastes just right in texture and flavour.

    The fish burger is equally as amazing and they serve with a slice of cheese which is a nice touch and extra layer of flavour in each bite.
