Marty's Fish Shop - BALLARAT CENTRAL

We often choose Marty's for our fish and chips because they offer a gluten free option. While my husband and children usually opt for the traditional fish and chips, we have noticed varying levels of quality at times. However, I have always been satisfied with my gluten free order. It's a great feeling to be able to enjoy them without worry. Our orders have always been accurate, the service is good, and the prices are reasonable. Give them a try!

The restaurant under new management is thriving. The gluten-free menu is both impressive and delicious. The potato cakes were generously sized, and the battered meatballs and homemade chicken nuggets were flavorful. I am happy to report that I experienced no gluten-related issues after dining here. Overall, I was very satisfied.

Excellent fish and chips, and having separate preparation and cooking for GF makes this the only F&C place my coeliac wife can eat. It just seems that every time we visit the service is chaotic. We phone ahead and turn up 5 minutes later than quoted and still sit waiting for 10-15 minutes.

The gluten-free options are excellent and only cost 30 cents more than the regular menu. The local owners are friendly and knowledgeable about their craft, but it seemed like they were not very busy on a Saturday night at 7pm.

Gluten free is a big bonus for a few of my family members, and they say it's nice. I like the Butter Fish (Hake with traditional batter, although I do find the batter a bit heavy and gluggy. I saw a remark the new owners are looking to make it more like a tempura, but it's not there yet. The pineapple fritters with cinnamon are a big treat to top things off. Communicating with the Chinese lady at the counter can be a bit difficult, but I think staff watch for difficulties and step in to help on occasion : It's the best fish chips we've found in four months of looking in Ballarat.
