Seafood Basket was fresh and juicy and fried perfectly. Atmosphere was lovely by Bathers Beach for a bit of sunset dining. Service was ok too.
I haven't been to Sweet Lips for yearsss and I'm glad they're still reeling out the same good ol' fish and chips 🎣! I was never a fan of fish and chips (still aren't) until I came across Sweet Lips 6 years ago and nothing has come close ever since 🎏. The fish was coated with the thinnest of batter, fried up super crispy and did not take any attention away from the fresh fish flesh.
Having said that the real winner on the day was actually my raw salmon poke bowl 🐟🥗! Combine brown rice, edamame, pickled ginger, scallions, slaw, cucumber, red cabbage, wakame salad, sesame seeds with an Asian-style dressing and the result was the perfect salad with all the health benefits you wish you'd always had 💪. The bowl looked deceptively small but it was super filling. With every bite there was a different mix of ingredients and together they sang so beautifully 🐠🎶🌱! The dressing really helped brighten up the flavours while the raw salmon needed no help shining through. Poke me any day of the week, I dare ya!
Don't let the lack of a view put you off - there's a reason why there's always a queue here (and it's not just the shopadocket vouchers). Get takeaway and take it over to the park near the beach and you'll have great food and a great view.
Found ourselves at Fremantle again- and decided to try Sweetlips after having been disappointed with the offerings of the others in the area. I really wasn't expecting much but I was pleasantly surprised. We ordered the family feast, some oysters, and some other stuff I can't remember. And the food turned out surprisingly good. The fried food was done to perfection, i.e. good batter, not oily, crunchy on outside, fresh on inside. The food here is fresh on the both times I visited, and the portion is substantial. There's some redemption in Freo after-all.
Never tried Sweetlips before so we gave it a go yesterday. We had Family Feast, Premium Fish (Whiting) Fillets & Chips and Coleslaw Salad. To be honest I didn't expect much from this place. However I was impressed by their batter, crunchy and not oily. Portions were quite generous too. Coleslaw was ok too.
A couple of things that put me off:
1. Very oily (slippery) floor. Be very cautious when you walk inside.
2. Oily smell sticking to ur hair and cloths if you sit inside due to kitchen located close to dining room. Hence we preferred to sit outside.
3. Unlike others (neighbours), they didn't have that many staffs on, so we waited quite a while for our food to come.
Overall wasn't a bad experience. I would go back one day.
Sweetlips Fish & Chips in Freo serves one of the best fish & chips around town. Forget about Cicerello's or Kailis, just swing around the corner and give it a go and you will not regret about it. It's fresher, less fishy, less oily and they deliver to your table!
Best fish and chip shop. Only one I know close to me that does deep fried feta. Have a big grill option which most fish n chip shops do not and so much local produce from freo / wa surroundings. It's always busy which shows it must be good. Doing a good job guys love your establishment and always have friendly staff 😀
This works out to be good value if you use the entertainment app. Having grilled will cost you an extra $2. They have live music on a Sunday evening! So good!
We got a family pack to share between four adult and it was HUGE! Good chips, great prawns and the fried fetta was actually really tasty! Fish was good, not the best I've ever had but the batter wasn't too greasy which is a plus. I didn't love the calamari cause it was a bit stringy but the rest of the group enjoyed it.
Good value when we used the Entertainment Card discount. We've been here twice now but mostly because it's on the Entertainment Card. The seagulls are a huge turnoff - they're horrible!! But not really the restaurants fault!
Delicious and fresh fish and chips. About time someone did it well!! You're putting the big guys across the road to shame. 😉 keep it up! Grilled fish burgers are my go to...mmmmmm
