Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Succulent fish (Hoki aka Blue Grenadier), crispy chips, good service and the place is impeccably clean.
...so we went back another day for lunch (which was just as good).
Haven't tried their other offerings, but we intend to.
As a local I've experienced a number of disappointing experiences in takeaways over the years, and it's kind of embarrassing when you know our tourists are getting the same experience....but I'd recommend this place.
Ocean Breeze is going to give fish and chips a whole new reputation in "the Bay" so, tourists give it a try......... (and no I'm not on the payroll.)

My husband and I had the Family pack 1, which included Blue Grenadier fillets calamari rings,Prawn cutlets & chips.
We also grabbed some potato scallops...Oh my, it was all to die for. The potato scallops were out of this world..Can highly recommend grabbing fish & chips from here.

3 of us had 2x crumbed flathead (one with chips), battered grenadier with chips, 5 panko crumbed calamari. Everything was fresh, crispy, delicious. Servings were plentiful - fish large pieces, 2x serves of chips heaps for 3 of us. Service was friendly. Order placed in the arvo for pickup later and it was right on time. Compliments to the young staff.

Since Beryn’s fish is so sad, I decided to try ocean breeze. There are more locals in the shop. The panko calamari is the best out of everything I purchased, but still i will not return as it was not good enough.
They crumbed the grenadier fish (which is fresh) but the crumb so thick like a brick. They didn’t know how to season the fish. Overall bad experience.

The fish and chips used to be great, but the last two experiences were horrible. The fish has zero taste and it's like eating an old sweaty sock. The chips are blend and have zero crisp. The calamari was okay-ish, but is only a third in size and flavor of what it used to be. The worst thing is the fat they're using - having a really nasty reflux and this typically means the is low quality, not hot enough, or not being replaced frequently enough. Unfortunately this will be our last visit to Ocean Breeze.

I had purchased a big load of fish, chips, scallops, etc, a month ago for six people. Our meal at that time came to approximately $85. We had leftovers for breakfast the next morning. I telephoned to say thank you, our meal was lovely and very generous.
Today my friend and I again decided we would have a big seafood meal at home. We ordered three blue grenadire fillets, three flat head fillets (all large pieces) two medium boxes of chips, 12 calamari, 6 scallops and six crab claws. All was packed separately in two boxes which the lovely lady delivered to our car. Cost today was $94.
We all enjoyed our meal at home, and still have plenty left for tomorrow. All was beautifully cooked and delicious.
I telephoned Ocean Breeze to thank them for a delicious generous meal.
We have had many meals at Ocean Breeze and never had a problem. It continues to be our favourite fish and chip shop.
Only two people were allowed to order at a time, so was Covid safe. Hand sanitiser and tissues were provided on the counter

Decided to try Ocean Breeze after seeing great reviews, on Sunday of June long weekend. It was relatively busy, and I was told the wait would be about 30 minutes. We were happy to wait, and ordered a prawn burger (advertised as a Panko crumbed prawn patty, deep fried), fish cocktails, scallops, chips and a pineapple fritter. Also asked for extra chicken salt and a side of tartare sauce.
An hour later our food was ready.
The “prawn burger” turned out to be 3 prawn cutlets on a bun. No chicken salt on anything, no tartare sauce. The potato scallops were thick and soggy inside, and the batter on the pineapple fritter was SO thick it was also soggy inside. The only saving grace was the fish cocktails which were quite good, if this wasn’t the case I wouldn’t have even wanted to even give a 1/5.
I don’t usually worry about writing bad reviews, I’m pretty easy to please and working in hospitality my whole life I know how hard it can be during a long weekend rush, but I’ve honestly never had such a bad experience before.
Would NOT recommend.

We had been looking forward to visiting the other fish shop next door (Berny’s) which has never let us down. Unfortunately they were closed. Trying to keep an open mind we decided to try this place instead. It left me angry. The fish did not taste fresh. We’d decided to try both the grenadier and the flathead for comparison. Neither tasted like it had been in the sea recently. I’m glad I got the flathead as I don’t think I could have stomached my wife’s grenadier (she can enjoy a wider range of fish than can I). The chips weren’t a patch on those from Berny’s and needed much dipping in tartare sauce to make them palatable.

The hamburger with bbq sauce is great. Well cooked tender meat and it’s huge. The chips are super crunchy. Generous serve even though it was a small size. Couldn’t eat them all. Lots of people ordering fish and it all looked fresh and cooked to order. Will definitely be back on my next trip.

Fish and chips are often a hit&miss affair. Either too much batter, or too be fatty.
The fish was perfect, just delicious! I bought the family pack 2.
I ordered by phone ahead of time, but they were not ready.
Travelled for 30 minutes, the chips were soggy, probably my mistake.
Won’t order by phone anymore.

Had a hamburgers with chips. Chips are good but the hamburger patty is below standard, so thin it’s barely there. Surf beach has got a patty double the size!

I don’t expect to be served flake on the south coast. I could have had flake fish cocktails in Canberra. Very disappointing.

The calamari was melt in your mouth delicious! My partner enjoyed his burger too! Chips weren't hand cut but still good. Potato scallop was also a bit thick and disappointing but the calamari honestly made up for it!
