Carss Park regulars skip the standard grease traps for this elevated seafood takeaway, where every fillet hits the oil strictly to order. Golden beer-battered NZ hake arrives crackling crisp alongside thick-cut chips, while scratch-made tartare and proper British-style mushy peas replace the usual corner-shop shortcuts. Beyond the fryer, neat boxes pack lobster rolls, fresh oysters, and salmon poke bowls built for a lunch stroll down to the bay.
- Scratch-to-order cooking: Fish is cooked fresh to order rather than held under heat lamps, delivering crisp batter and flaky fillets.
- Gourmet sides & salads: Pairs hot boxes with house-made tartare, proper mushy peas, and rotating fresh market salads.
- Beyond the fryer: Features lobster rolls, opened oysters, and salmon poke bowls alongside traditional battered fare.
