Ordered the Kids Meal for $4.95 to try it out - Fish, calamari and chips - an amazing deal, it is almost a full Adult's meal in itself. Once we were satisfied and in love, we ordered the number 1 shortly afterwards, which is a larger version of the Kid's meal. The fish was obviously as fresh as you can... More

It is so hard to get good fish and chips these days that we occassionally drive an hour from Brisbane to Peter's on Main Beach for the best seafood. We get there before 12 noon before the rush starts. When we were there the beach patrol guys all rocked up and we just got in before them. When you see... More

We used to frequent Peter's Fish for lunch and fresh fish - once or twice a week at least. But not any longer! We stopped going regularly some years back after witnessing the boss treat customers poorly. Its no wonder that the staff treat customers the same way. The food, which used to be good, is now inconsistent. Good one... More

Went home to realized that our snapper fish is not in there! Call up the staff and ask if we could have a refund since I stay more than... More

It must be good if there are long lines of people and the place needs a guy at the front to stop people from coming in if there are too many inside. It definitely was good. The seafood had plenty of flavour and I would definitely go back again! More

The standard Fish and chips is frozen imported nile perch or similar. The oil is usually old and you can smll it a mile away. The staff are indifferent and can muck up the order - battered instead of crumbed, etc. Often overcooked - dark outside and dry inside. If you wanrt fresh prawns go to the trtawlers next door. More
