Docks Fish and Chips Brunswick
Crunchy, golden batter and fresh, non-fishy seafood define this dish, alongside crispy chips and flavourful handmade potato cakes. Friendly service and generous portions provide great value, though the loud television volume can be a distracting nuisance during meals.

“Usually if the owners are Greek for a fish and chip shop then I expect an elevated experience for freshness, quality of product and service. Docks did not disappoint. The flake and calamari was fresh, the batter crunchy and golden and the chips crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Service is friendly and pricing is relative to the quality”
