We had a family day at the beach with friends shortly after Christmas. I was looking forward to some delicious fish and chips but unfortunately ended up at Bottom of the Harbour, a place aptly named as the bottom of the harbour is where this place deserves to be! I opened up the fisherman's baskets and was immediately concerned as it appeared that they had run a long handled scoop through the bottom of the fryer and pulled up what they found and then dumped it on to some tasteless chips, it was beyond poor. By now desperate I cracked open the salt and pepper calamari and chips and my fears were confirmed. A handful of anaemic parcels once again atop the most tasteless chips I have ever...

You can't give too much feedback on fish & chips but the issue I had was that their fish was promoted on their menu as 'New Zealand Hake'. We live in one of the best places on earth for fresh seafood, not to mention being right there on Balmoral Beach, we should only be using Australian seafood! I probably wouldn't eat there again because of it. Cost is obviously the reason behind using foreign seafood. Nice staff but this business should be promoting local & Australian.

I've been going here for most of a decade and have not tired of it so far. It is perhaps a little expensive but I always enjoy my food and it's in such a great location. Pleasant and informal.

Went on the 6km scenic walk from Toronga Zoo to Balmoral and worked up a hunger. The fish + chips were standard, not bad, not amazing, but calamari was surprisingly fresh.

Decent fish and chips, but a bit on the expensive side. Quite a nice place to take your friends and then sit down on the beach for the afternoon
