I would say though, a little secret not many will know, and will just top the meal off that much better, is to ask for chicken salt on the chips. It turns them from boring old standard chips to something MUCH more delicious.

And best of all, this is a perfect example of getting your monies worth - while it's cheap, the food at Martin's is delicious too. Never greasy and soft, their chips are always crisp and crunchy, their fritters never oily and their spring rolls fresh - it's a great wee takeaway store tucked in the back streets of Mt Albert! While undoubtedly great value, Martin Takeaways offer great specials too. Deals like an egg burger, fish, hot dog, potato fritter and chips for $8.50, and two cans of fizzy drink for $3 are readily available and are brilliant value for money. The family that run this Chinese takeaway and fish and chip store are really friendly and recognise you as being a local which is always nice. Really, the only negative I can think of about Martin Takeaways is that their magazines are pretty out of date, so there isn't much to do while you wait for your food. But hey, if that's as bad as it gets who cares - the food is so good you'll soon forget about the old gossip mags!

A Husband and Wife team trying to do their best, after all it is takeaways. Chips aren't fresh but good portions for the price. Fish is dry sometimes but the right size as fish go.

The good thing about this place is that it's open late, so if you're after something to eat after…read moreeveryone else has served dinner and closed, then this place can sort you out. The bad thing is that they don't open until five, so if your stomach runs on non-vampiric rhythms, then you'll have to look elsewhere for a daylight snack. The people behind the counter are friendly although not particularly chatty, and the food itself is fine (that's a vague description, but it's the most appropriate. How is the food? The food is fine). To be honest if you're in Mt. Albert and you're hungry, even if it's a little late, I think you can find more interesting fare than this. But if you're not in the mood for adventure or variety then this is a pleasantly safe option.

Oh, and ridiculous specials written up in vivid and taped to the window - four hot dogs, two burgers, eight fish, seven potato fritters, $5. Not quite that, but still enormous amounts of food for very small prices. The food itself is pretty good, as far as fish and chips go. The chips themselves (always the critical test) probably get a B from me - good, but not exemplary. The burgers are nice though, or at least the one I had was. AJ's earns extra points for being an important Auckland landmark. Need to know where Owairaka Ave meets Mt. Albert Road? Well actually you already do, even if you didn't realise that was what those two roads were called.

But it also just looks like a fish and chip shop. Your standard, every day, regular local chippie. It's even called 'Chips' (in case you're not familiar with French, 'pommes frites' are the French words for chips). There's absolutely nothing wrong with this place, but if you think it's going to be like what its website makes it seem like, you might find yourself disappointed. Anyway, aside from good chips it has at least one smiley, friendly staff member who gave me my order when it was ready. The lady who took my order wasn't quite so warm (why did she look so confused when I put my money on the counter? It was the exact amount) but I can certainly let that slide since the other guy made up for it.

They do a really good batter with the fish and I think that's what makes it good. Service is always very prompt - when we ring in an order, it's always waiting for us when we arrive. Their hot chips are good quality and they always give us a generous portion. They do a range of Chinese food too here and it is also quite good - considerably better than some of the rival takeaways in the neighbourhood. The Roberts Road location of these shops is quite popular with people on the weekends but you can generally get a park. There's a good selection of eateries here (Dominos, a bakehouse, Thai etc) but I reckon Blue Lagoon is probably the best of them. Make sure, if you get fish and chips, you get snapper as it's the best quality.
