So good. The fish (whiting) and chips is superb and the friendly service with seating looking over the bay is a must. So good we went back twice more!!!

Good price, great portion sizes (a lot of food). Unfortunately had to pay for tomato sauce, which is not uncommon in this part of the world.

I ordered chicken and chips and a couple of bottles of fanta from here one evening on my stay in Paihia. We waited around 20 minutes for the chicken to be cooked. Once I received the meal the portion size was good, the food was tasty and was reasonably priced.

We ate here in April, the food was nice but the serving was a bit small and the service we received was a little bit disinterested almost felt bad for taking a minute to look at the menu. But if your after a cheaper meal in Paihia, not a bad option.

Fish and chips are quick and easy for a day on the beach and reasonably priced as well. I would opt for the dory (which is $1 more but kind of worth it).

We had great fish and chips from here which we took to the beach to eat. Very fresh fish and chips, good service and variety, including mussells and oysters. Would highly recommend.

Had the daily special - batter was thick and fish was thin, chips well cooked but small serve compared to elsewhere, sausages were surprisingly okay.
