Visited here when passing through at tea time. As a highly experienced chip eater, it's usually risky eating at new places as the likelihood of getting boring and overcooked chips is high. However here I was pleasantly surprised. We ordered a medium chips and 2 pieces of fish of the day. Fish seemed a bit expensive at $4.70 each but it was either that or a dried out pie from a gas station! Dinner was served on a cardboard tray in a bag, so was easy to eat in the car. If you eat in location there is free sauce in the table, unusual for Auckland. Chips were a good mix of squishy and crunchy ones, and the fish was a thick fresh piece. It seemed like it had not been frozen prior and was a bigger portion than most places I usually go. I removed a ratings star for the batter - although it was thin and crispy, it was very greasy. They've done such a good job otherwise. (I note that they also seem to sell some bakery products which I did not sample. I don't appreciate seeing bread loaves out and uncovered in the main shop area, so would not be partaking in those anyway.) Overall I was pleased with the size of the portions and the quality of the fish, and would be happy to return.
