About The Fish Man

Pick fresh seafood straight from the counter display and have it battered, grilled, or crumbed on the spot. This Blackwood chippie operates as both a wet fishmonger and a takeaway joint, giving you market-price species cooked to order alongside hot, crisp chips. Non-seafood eaters are well covered too, with house-made smash burgers and yiros on the pass. Grab a high table inside or take away a parcel of golden mullet and tartar sauce.

  • Cooked-to-order fish counter: Select raw fillets or whole catch by weight from the display case and request them grilled, crumbed, or battered for a small fee.
  • Beyond seafood: The kitchen griddles house-made smash burgers with the lot, yiros, and classic hot takeaway sides for mixed crews.
