We love the effort taken in setting up this taste of New Zealand. We came across it as we were…read moreheading south on the M1 toward the Gold Coast and probed Google for fish & chips. There is a mural across the front of the shop that is a tribute to New Zealand popular culture. Imported soft drinks, chocolate and ice cream are there and reasonably priced. The menu reads like a taste of Aotearoa as well. There is a disclaimer by the door indicating cooking times are a guide and may exceed what is initially suggested. The writing while not on the wall was very close to it. It took 28 minutes to produce 3 pieces of fish and portions of chips, with some fritters and a donut to round things out. We wondered if the food was in the vat for most of that because all but the chips were burnt. The outer oiliness and hard crust of the batter suggested the vat temperature was set too high. This was disappointing because everything before it looked so promising. We hope the two young ladies running the store were not the strongest part of the team there. It is the first time we've ever seen chips weighed before going into an order. To be fair there was a few very positive reviews on Google and their facebook site, so maybe we got them on a bad day.

The menu also includes tasty salad options to make this a delicious and nutritious, if a little naughty, meal. Take it home, eat at the clean curb- side table and chair or take across the road to the beautiful park and sit by the water. But best of all is the friendly and efficient service. On my last visit I was even treated to a small cup of spicy pumpkin soup whilst I waited, complimentary and very welcome on a chilly night.

Peter's is still around and booming for one thing. Second is they have barely increased their prices as compared to everyone else on that Gold Coast!!! We arrived and there was still a line out the door if the fish market at 4:00PM. They shut down the kitchen at 7:00PM. Remember this is a fish market. They had added many more picnic benches that kind of line the street and have a few at the end of the little street overlooking the water. So, you pick out your seafood, stand in line and when it's your turn you tell them how you want it cooked. We ordered a meal that consisted of 7 large fried shrimp(crumbled prawn cutlets)and order of fries and a large bottled soda. Total check was $24 AUDs....about $16US. Our number was quickly called and we retrieved our food. Sat outside and had a delightful late afternoon lunch/early dinner. The shrimp were perfectly cooked. And the fries were plentiful and nicely seasoned with salt. Both the shrimp and fries had a nice crisp. Remember this is a fish market. Service is great if you are ok standing in line for a boating to order. Staff is there willing to help Seafood is described as to type and labeled whether it is freshly caught or has been previously frozen. What more does one want. Highly recommend even though I shouldn't because the place is already always packed. Remember this is casual dining and it is simple! Enjoy!

So, you know how it's really difficult to mess up fish and chips ... ha ha ha do we have a surprise…read morefor you! The Fish Shak's idea of fish and chips is two tiny pieces not much bigger than a finger, and virtually nothing there when the super thick oily batter comes of. Cod portion was a bit bigger, but not by much, with even thicker, oil soaked batter -enough oil to cause an oil slick if this fell into the Broadwater Totally devoid of taste. So far sets a new record as the worse fish in East Australia (and there are some pretty bad ones around). This was so bad it makes regular bad seem a bit good! Avoid at all costs or you will come out with a lighter wallet and a very sad face! T he guy at the counter was also quite friendly ... Not! -- Wait ... the chips were actually good - but then its not the Chip Shak is it! Avoid - Avoid - Avoid
