While Fisherman's Wharf is known as having the best and freshest seafood in town, we would also like to bring to your attention our wonderful fish and chips, which must be the freshest in Christchurch.
Fish and chips are a bit of a Kiwi institution, having first been introduced by British settlers and with the first few fish and chips shops being established pre-WW1. Fish and chips have been the most popular restaurant food throughout the last 100 years, with almost every small town and suburb in NZ having a fish and chip takeaway or restaurant.
The key to great seafood and fish and chips is a combination of a few things, firstly good quality fresh fish, the fresher the better. Pride and passion in cooking it just right and finally the chef has to know what they are doing to get it perfect.
It’s these three factors that we believe make our fish and chips the best. Firstly, we do have our own commercial fishing trawler, which means simply we catch it, we cook it, then we serve it – you simply can’t beat the freshness of our fish! Rob our chef has a wealth of experience and passion cooking seafood and he treats the 30th dish he has cooked just the same as his first. Also, finally you can’t beat our view to eat them – there is always something going on in Lyttelton harbour to capture your attention while dining!
Good Fry Days!
Our traditional fish and chips have a choice of either a delightfully light beer batter or delicately crumbed fresh fish (choice of Gurnard, blue cod or go for the catch of the day) all served with golden fries, salad and our delicious homemade tartare sauce and of course all served with a view!
