The best fish and chips outlet in this country! Fresh fish, friendly staff and my fave menu is: the whole snapper (fried)!
The best in Australia
If you’re looking for 1000% fresh seafood restaurant this is only place in OZ and more importantly 100% from our Aussie ocean. You just have to visit once and your lifetime will forever coming back for more. Great service highly commendable!
Great flake great staff recommend to anyone in the area �
First time here and won't be the last. Killer seafood!! Highly recommend. Keep it up guys
Best seafood in Melbourne by far.
Especially my favourite mussels in marinara sauce.
A definite must visit again
Finger licken great
Excellent fresh food, excellent service and the shop is gorgeous. Well done to the owner
The fish was cooked perfectly and the calamari just melted in my mouth. I didn’t love the oysters Kilpatrick but would just get them natural next time. Would definitely return with the kids.
Been there twice now both times had no problems with service and the food is as good as it gets,fresh,large serves,well presented food for a fair price ad in a timely manner,will be back
Really tasty fresh fish and seafood available. Cooked to perfection either grilled or crunchy not oily batter and can be served with delicious crunchy chips or fresh house made gourmet salads.
The popular spot for fish and chips in Coburg.
There is always a que for fish and chips here. They have a nice and spacious seating area in the cafe and an array of fresh seafood on the display window at the front
Came here to get takeaway and we ordered and pack for two and added more fish and seafood. Really enjoyed our meal, the fish was cooked in a very nice and light batter.
Highly recommend those fish and chips, they are definitely amazing.
Blu has amazing seafood and is a very busy restaurant that is children friendly so can get very busy and noisy but the food is so delicious and fresh! I enjoyed the barramundi, rice and salad - very simple but very delicious! I will definitely recommend this place ✅
Love love love this place! Super fresh seafood that you can take home and cook. They also cook food on site. Best fish and chips I have had in Melbourne so far. I look forward to going back and trying more :).
This place makes a killer barramundi. Love the freshness of the fish. The chips were ok but could do with more seasoning. The experience was pretty cool they were super busy but I must say the staff werent as friendly as I had hoped. They seemed very stressed (probably due to being really busy) but didnt really smile. I'd go back just to have the barramundi again. Yum
Food is really nice - the seafood is fresh, and everything tastes freshly cooked. There is a lack of available parking around the establishment so it may be difficult around peak times
Fresh, delicious fish which can easily find its way into your diet or health kick.
Amazing amazing fish and sides. Ordered a fried barramundi combo while my friend ordered a fried flake combo which some potato cakes. Needless to say, it was super generous and THE BEST POTATO CAKES IVE EVER EATEN.
The register assistant didn’t look like she wanted to be there and the other staff looked unhappy but thankfully, the food did not reflect that one bit.
Compared to other fish and chip places, this has to be one of the best ones I’ve been to and will most definitely come back.
Highly recommend for quality fish and chips 😍
Love this place! Great selection of seafood served in a cafe style restaurant. We had the cray tail and swordfish. It was yummy and we will def be back! My only complaint is that the chips aren’t nice. They should consider serving French fries with a flavoured salt of some sort or just cooking the existing chips much longer so they are crispy. For $4, I wouldn’t order a side of chips again.
i travel half way across town to feast on the quality fresh fish and salads big serves plenty of options to cater for everyone's needs, casual place
Best fish and chips you’ll get anywhere in Melbourne and I am FIRM in that.
I’ve been multiple times and refuse to go to any other dine-in fish and chip restaurant. The marinated prawns are a standout
Have lots of varieties deals on the board. The staff was not really helpful. So went to have the snapper. Nice and crunchy. The price was alright. Had to pay extra for sauce.
The seafood here is without doubt up there with the best in Melbourne. The freshness is superb, take for example the blue eye, which is superior to many hatted restaurants. Definitely not a fine dining experience, and a fair trip from the inner east, but if you want a relaxed dinner with quality food, this place is worth trying. Great calamari, prawn skewers, delicious scallops, amongst other things. Must visit place.
Truly an asset to Coburg. Probably the best fish & chips I have had.
Also so fresh, and cooked to perfection. Have eaten here many times, as I am a local, and I have never had a a terrible experience.
One of the best Greek restaurants in the Western suburbs. The seafood is typically fresh, thanks to their high turnover. But don’t neglect their souvlaki. It’s delicious too. The restaurant is always busy including people walk in for takeaways.
I would give Blu five stars if their chips were better because honestly, everything else is fabulous. The fish is always fresh, the salads too, the calamari and salt and pepper squid are amazing and the portion sizes for the price are very good. It’s just the chips. They aren’t bad, they are just ... meh. Bland. And although my family and I eat at Blu often, (the kids pack will feed two under 10) it’s not the place I would go to for some hot chips like I would other fish and chips shops. Fix the chip and it’s five stars all the way!
The Lobster burger was awesome! Overall the seafood was fresh and the decor and staff were friendly and inviting. Will definitely visit again the next time we’re in the area
We LOVE this eatery. Not a typical fish and chip shop. Fish is always fresh. Staff are always friendly. Generous seafood options at a good price. Seating is good and the location is relatively central and super accessible. Don’t have a bad thing to say to be honest!
Fantastic place but so busy and hard to get a table if your a larger group. Meals are huge so order less than you think you’ll need. We took home heaps as we over ordered. Grilled fish and salad is the way to go! Comes out hot and fresh, will definitely be back
The food deserves 5 stars. Delicious fish and seafood, the salads are really good, they have chips (nice and golden) or brown rice. Only giving 4 stars as on a Saturday we waited way more than an hour and on a normal weeknight 45 minutes for simple fish and chips. As it's noisy and there is no table service it's not very pleasant to wait there. The waiter explained to us that it's normal to wait that long in a restaurant, sorry but the name is literally fish & chippery and in a restaurant I don't have to line up to order food or drinks. We will go again but only for take away or at 3pm when it would hopefully be empty.
This is very affordable but awesome tasting fish and chips spot! The seafood here and the fresh fish really taste good and fresh. The portion of the chips was super huge. The freshest fish and chip shop in the northern suburbs if not Melbourne. The service is good. The prices are reasonable. The place has a good fit out. Can’t wait to come back.
This is not your usual fish & chip shop. Great casual eatery with ample seating inside & out. Fully licensed, serve coffee, sweets & complimentary chilled fragrant water.
Extensive selection of fresh seafood and salads to take home. The dine in menu is extensive. Generous portions, delicious, fresh & tasty. Expect queues at peak times- well worth the wait.
Best local fish and chips place! Fish is fresh whether you eat it, take away or purchase their produce. Speedy service, the lines look scary but you realize the staff have been prepared for the busy rush. Staff are friendly and always happy to accommodate.
This is a very afordable but delicious tasting fish and chips. The seafood and the fish taste super fresh that the meat from the fish/seafood itself taste sweet with great texture. The portion of the chips were super huge.
Will come back for:
+ Lunch pack (grilled flake)
One of the best fish and chips I have had anywhere! The lunch pack came with grilled flake, a scallop, a potato scallop, a south melbourne dim sum, 2 calamari and chips. All of the seafood were done to perfection! The batter is light but crunchy and the flake was super fresh and delicious. In fact, all of the seafood were cooked really well, fresh and super delicious. Fries were just ok though. The place is quite big, and obviously a favourite for locals and I’m sure to come back to try out all the other seafood items!

Fast and prompt service here and food was delicious. Seafood looks and tastes very fresh. We got the kilpatrick oysters which were delicious and highly recommend. We also ordered some sweet potato fries, octopus, salmon and calamari which were also satisfying and tasted amazing!
Really yummy and tasty food. I haven't scored 5 stars because we had to wait 1hr to get the food, too busy on Saturday night I would suggest to go during the week or before closure
Hard to fault anything about this place. The freshest fish and chip shop in the northern suburbs if not Melbourne. The service is good. The prices are reasonable. The place has a good fit out. Can’t wait to come back.
Great pack for 2 with incredible portions and quality seafood. We tried both the battered fish and the grilled fish where we preferred the grilled fish over the battered one. All other things on platter was fantastic too with really friendly staff!
Came in by reccomendation. Was not dissapointed. Friendly helpful service, delicious food, generous portions and more than reasonable pricing. Place was packed on a Monday night, they still managed to give me specialised salad to suit my allergies. Great place. Highly reccomend. Thank you

‘From the Ocean to your plate’
I couldn’t believe my eyes when I stepped in this venue and in 40+ years of eating fish & chips it has to be my all time greatest!!!
This place is much more than that of your standard fish shops & full credit to the owners who are passionate on supplying the freshest, tastiest and well proportioned meals. We stood there looking at the seafood displayed at the front and I kid you not, I wanted to try everything but I’m sure I would of been there for days!!! There’s an abundance of beautiful seafood.
We firstly tried the fresh king prawns in a special vinaigrette and then followed by Kilpatrick Oysters which were both amazing!
I had to try their open souvlaki which was a feast in itself, and the meat was very tasty and succulent.
Their Flake was the best ever and then we tried
their famous fried moretan bay bug which was in a special sweet & sour sauce which for me was the highlight of the day!
It’s a kind of place where you’ll always make time to go back on an empty stomach so you can try everything:)
Fresh seafood, you can choose the rareness of your Salmon which is amazing. Was not too pricey, definitely will go there again. Spent
I love coming here for a Sunday night dinner with my family. The moreton bay bugs are fantastic. The only down side is that if you go around 5.30-6 you will most definitely have to wait around for a table or be seated somewhere uncomfortable. Otherwise fresh and delicious food.
Great food with a lot of options, well priced and quick service. Unfortunately the some of staff weren’t the friendliest and that was a big let down.

Definitely one of the best places for fish and chips in all of Melbourne! Though it’s not exactly in the most convenient location, if you do find yourself around the area, or if you live nearby, it is definitely worth a visit!
We came on a Friday night at 5:30pm, just before the place started getting packed. The interior is clean and spacious, and the atmosphere is vibrant and energetic. For the four of us, we decided to get the pack for 2, whole grilled calamari, whole grilled baby barramundi, and honey sesame bug tails.
The pack for 2 was MASSIVE and definitely worth the value - a huge mountain of chips, and large pieces of fried fish fillets. The fried seafood is done perfectly - crispy batter, well-cooked fish, and not too oily or greasy. So flavourful we didn’t even need any tartare sauce. The honey sesame bugs were to die for - so tender and crispy, and the sauce was sweet and delicious. Absolutely heavenly! The grilled barramundi was also a highlight of the night!
Overall, all the seafood is very fresh and high quality, and it is very worth the value. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Blu, and we will definitely be coming back in the future!
Fresh and flavoursome food, generously portioned and genuine good service. The salad was vibrant and tasty, and the fish, on point. Mussels went well with the toasted dipping bread. I will be back for more!
This is a grand powerful temple of fish and chips and everything else. Cheap oysters that are fresh as CHECK. Great fish and chip style burgers CHECK! Massive amounts of golden friend foods CHECK! Salads and other stuff if you wish CHECK! Get into it. So packed a lot of the time and for good reason!
This is the best place for fish and chips in Melbourne. z the price is very reasonable and fish is always fresh. I just love it. I got th he rockling today. sauce costs extra but I'm just here for the fish. salad his also fresh.
It took me nearly an hour to get there, but I’m glad I came. This place is so far the best fish&chips place I’ve ever been to in Melbourne. Me and my friend ordered the pack for two. Look at the portion! It’s big enough for three. Loved the fried prawn and the fish flake, especially the flake because it’s not oily at all, and it didn’t have too much batter like most of the fried fish in other places. The potato cake wasn’t much of a treat, but tbh I never liked any potato cake. The chips were crispy and not soggy at all, which I very much appreciated. Great vibe and friendly staff, too. Nice experience in general.
Despite a busy Friday night, the quality of food was quite nice. Fish was battered well and crispy which was not soaked in inches of batter. Potato cakes were standard and chips were average. But I did enjoy the calamari rings which tastes fresh and not chewy. However oysters were frozen and felt icy. Being informed of the wait time would be nice as well, but overall good job.
This is one of the BEST seafood places around. Lucky for us it’s close by but if not, it’s definitely worth the trip. There’s no going past the grilled octopus!! Everything on the menu is amazing and that’s why we keep going back
Got fish and chips tonight 26/6/2020.. and took it away.. normally this is 5 star stuff I have about this place to family and friends. Tonight was very different, very oily..like way too oily...
26/6/2020.. very very oily fish and chips tonight... usually great.. not tonight was horrible
Previous visits Amazing seafood great service huge portions.. great burgers. Staff helpful. Here is burger with the lot and prawn salad... only negative is place can be really busy buts its a testament to how great the food is
Been here a lot Aways quality and cheaper than other boutique 😂 fish and chip shops
Love the tickling and chard octopus
Friendly service also
I love this place and the best thing is it is so close to where I live... the lunch combo is the best thing to go for as it has all my favourites in one.... the grilled salmon is also lovely... the only thing that needs to change are their fries as they are very dry....
I can't believe I used to live so close to here and never knew of this place until a friend recommended it. Great fresh food. The venue is actually nice for a massive fish and chips shop. Good areas to sit around the back. We ordered a fish and a whole calamari. I couldn't help myself and also got the grilled octopus. Everything was very, very good. Super fresh food, nicely seasoned, chips were crispy, can't wait to be back. Definitely recommended.
Been looking for good Fish and Chips in Melbourne and finally I found one! Blu has a nice outdoor areas where you can enjoy the nice weather while having your beer and Fish & Chips.
We tried the Blue Grenadier Grill, Blue Eye Grill and Flakes Fried. Personally I prefer the grill fish.
Blue Eye Grill was my favourite, it has a mild flavour, medium kilness and moist. However Blue Eye price was double than the other two.
My next choice for grilled would be cod or john dory
The calamari and potato cake taste wonderfull. We also get the pumpkin salad, it was delicious. Eventhoug you have to pay $2.50 extra. The mussle was ok. Staffs were really friendly and helpful.
We went here in a family group on sunday lunch. Beautiful vibrant food, portion wise are amazingly huge. We shared plates and still have leftovers. The bay bug is amazing!!! My daughter is a fussy eater yet liking the food so much. And she just ask to go back( never happened )
Ample space for groups, very clean and neat.
Not bad, but after visiting a few times it is noticeably ‘hit and miss’. When this place is too busy, you can be waiting a decent time for your order, and your order can be incorrect (like mine was). 30 min wait, and my burger was average, and missing the cheese which I had paid extra for.
In saying that, it is probably the best fish and chips in the area (if you can be bothered to wait).
As if I’ve lived in Coburg my whole life and just only found out about this place.....
I came here with my partner, he ordered the pack for 2 for himself haha and I ordered a grilled whiting with a Greek salad.
My fish was cooked pretty well and had some awesome flavour to it, the salad was really nice and fresh but didn’t love the goats feta (personal preference)
Everything on my partners packed was cooked exceptionally well from the fish, calamari, chips and those delicious potato cakes!!!
Definitely will come back and try other menu items!
Staff were nice and efficient however who ever is smashing that service bell 5 times in a row needs to chill... haha
One of the best fish and chip shops in Melbourne by far. Massive variety of fresh seafood and excellent set up. Also, they are very generous with their portion sizes. Highly recommend
What can I say except wow! This place was recommended to us by a family member who would not stop raving on about it and now we understand why. The cue to order is always really long (for good reason), but the wait is well worthwhile. Great fresh quality food for an even better price tag. It's the new hunky dorys which is closer to home. Tick tick tick.
Absolutely delicious. A very busy place but definitely worth the wait. I especially love the fried squid, crab and mussels. The servings are very generous, particularly the Mussels.
Excellent prices! Always fresh fish & chips...we got takeaway twice over the last few weeks. Blu is our go place for picnic functions! Bonus the aquarium keeps the kids entertained & those little blue wet wipe packs....the Greek salad is yummo!! Just a tad pricey!
Really beautiful and fresh, unpretentious and friendly. Great to have some great seafood in the area! Unassuming and simple with just good quality, fresh and uncomplicated ingredients.
We have been eating at Blu’s since its location next to the Australian Meat Company. It’s a fantastic family-run restaurant and since its expansion into the new, bigger space the quality has remained exactly the same. Best fish and chips in town guaranteed!
Had grilled blue grenadier with brown rice & salad. Fish was cooked to perfection and was really fresh! Salad was also very tasty. Will definitely go back and have the fried fish this time.
Large portions, tasty salads, fresh fish cooked simply, reasonable prices, good family atmosphere, looking forward to going back. Top marks !
Nice place to bring the family. Fish was yummy and the batter was golden and crispy. Only disappointment was the oyster kilpatrick - didn’t love it. Place was clean and service time was reasonable as it was pretty busy when we were there. Plenty of adults and kids. Would definitely return.
Quite possibly the best fish n chips in Melbourne, definitely the best I've come across. I had the lunch pack with blue grenadier, it was an enormous portion of food for one person. The fish was fresh and delicate with a light crispy batter. The calamari rings are the best I've had, again incredibly fresh and tender. Hubby enjoyed his hamburger with the lot. All the seafood is fresh and nothing was greasy. Reasonable prices, friendly staff and a bright and welcoming restaurant. Will definitely be coming back.
First time I have been back since they moved, the fish and chips are fantastic, the service was fast and efficient, we grabbed a table outside to enjoy the sunshine. My only negative would be the lack of parking

I was looking for awesome fish and chips and Blu kept popping up on all my searches. Thinking that this must be a sign, we headed off to Blu to check out what the fuss is all about. Walking in, we knew we hit jackpot by the number of customers despite it being late in the afternoon, and also the fresh selections of seafood on offer. Not only were there many people dining in or getting takeaways, many were snapping up fresh seafood to go.
We ordered the lunch pack and a garlic prawns skewer to share, and was pleasantly surprised by the amount of food in the lunch pack. Two decent sized fried fish of the day, a potato cake, one fried scallop, one dim sim, one crab stick, and two calamari rings, and not forgetting chips! How is this even supposed to be for one? All super fresh and lightly fried in crispy batter, and most importantly the fish was sweet, moist and flaky. The chips, albeit hot and fresh, were half crunchy and half limp. That’s the only complain I have.
There’s a bit of wait for food, even with the place just half full, so I’m guessing that this is not a place you would want to go to at peak hours when you’re absolutely starving.
Service was pretty much straight to the point, no dilly-dallying around and no chit-chat either. The food, or more precisely the seafood, is what you’re here for, and nothing else.

Amazing amazing food. Great place to come and sit with the whole family. Love the Greek touch on everything. Number 1 place for fish and chips and amazing souvlakia.
Of course nobody can deny how fresh and tasty the food is here but what this place is losing over time is the 'dining experience'
Again this is not a bad review but when you have one night a week to eat out and enjoy time with family and friends the general noise/atmosphere/ and "rush" to finish and free a table can be a bit much. Might order take away next time and he'd down to Coburg Lake
Absolutely amazing seafood here. Fresh and tasty. Service fantastic and there is one young guy there that has a smile on his face all the time. I think the owner was working behind the bar and he was so friendly and if it was him then he should be very proud of his business
Really can't complain about this place. Good location, easy to park and nice set out. Such a huge variety of fresh seafood and fish beautifully displayed. They offer quite a bit of what other fish and chip places don't. Service was good and so was the food. Will be a regular
Fun, happy collected crew. Take away the orders, fast service with a nicely designed interior, the only out of place aspect was the current pop music. One of the best banana fritters I’ve had, crispy tasty batter with nice cinnamon and powdered sugar for the price. The fish set was nicely cooked and generously sized. One of the best fish and chippery in Melbourne.
If you like seafood, this is the place you need to eat. It is phenomenal, everything on their menu is just fresh and delicious!
We livd 30 minutes from here and have been here 3 times in the last 4 days.
Their basic fish fillets are cooked so amazingly well, their sides are tasty and their seafood options are diverse, interesting and most of all finger licking good. I wanted to try everything on their menu at least once, I was not disappointed with anything we ordered from here.
I even dared to venture to a crispy lobster burger and that was unique to say the least, but like the standard, delicious!
Make sure to get the fried mars bar for dessert, a great end to such tasty seafood.
Love this place!!!
Used to come here when it was a small wholesaler factory shop, quality is still as I remember.
Best fish & chips in Melbourne
The value and flavours are just too good.
So much variety, great service!
