The Fish Shak - Southport

I had the shrimp po boy it was delicious! Plenty of shrimp and almost a whole avocado sliced on top. Going back again next week to try out their fish and chips.

Stopped here one lunch just to go for a bit of a walk and a bite to eat. We ordered 3 different meals. The Trawler meal, Grilled salmon and Greek salad and a Shak Pack. First of all the grilled snapper in my trawler meal was one of the best I've ever had. So perfectly cooked, it was fresh and moist and can't wait to have it again the next time I'm down the coast. Salad was fresh and delicious. Calamari was perfectly tender and battered as well as seasoned, prawn cutlets were standard prawn cutlets and not over cooked. Chips were deliciously seasoned and perfectly crisp. My sister's grilled salmon was equally moist and perfectly cooked all the way through just as she had asked. We later stopped back in after a walk through the parklands and had lovely coffees and a scoop of ice cream which was delicious and creamy and not icy at all. Will definitely recommend to any friends going down the coast and is a short walking distance to the nearby Aqua Splash. Can't wait to eat here again!!!

Best fish and chips I have had in a long time. Sick of plain , greasy fish and chips ? This is the place for you.<br/ <br/ Everything was cooked to perfection and the taste was amazing. Special mention goes to the calamari !!! Will definitely be back

There’s nothing that compares to a great fish and chip shop with a water view, and that’s exactly what you get at The Fish Shak. The latest venture of Liz and Justin Allie, (also co-owners of Longboards Laidback Eatery), the former Café Rockpool has been transformed into an upmarket yet casual licensed ‘dine in or take away’ seafood restaurant.

The fish burger was so good that we went back a second time to get it again. Firstly, during a time when so many places skimp off in terms of both quality and quantity, it was so good to see somewhere provide good quality fish and of a good serving size too! Plus, the pickles and tartare sauce in there were seriously so good! Would highly recommend
