Reviews Fishy Business

It’s all about fish obviously. Can’t complain as we know all fish n chips are oily but that’s the good bit. Fancy seafood restaurants around but if you’re price conscious Fishy Business will be the best alternative. This is the only shop that has eat in located at the back but only accommodate max 10 people only on a row seating facing the water. Ample paid parking.

The guy working today was a legend! So nice and went out of his way to be accomodating... highly recommend. Fish was good, chips were nice (and good value). Potato cakes tasted like eating a wad of toilet paper. This is nothing that can't be fixed though. Being on the water is lovely and the heater is fantastic. Not a bad place in winter at all. Great experience

Have enjoyed two very enjoyable meals at Fishy Business with my infant daughter this trip to Hobart. The staff are very friendly and efficient and the rear deck seating clean and a comfortable place to enjoy your meal. We had the fisherman’s Basket for 1 our first visit and Blue Eye Trevella crumbed with scallops, calamari and chips on the second. Both with a lovely creamy tarter sauce. The food was cooked perfectly. I did also give Flippers a try first but was very disappointed. If you are debating which to try Pick Fishy Business.

Had a pretty strange experience tonight (22 Jan). The guy serving me with white shaggy hair accidentally knocked over one of the boxes of fish and chips all over the counter as he was giving them to me. He then picked up the fish with his hands directly off the outside counter (breaking it all up), put it back in the box, and gave it to me like nothing happened. I asked him if he expected me to eat it after that to which he didn’t really say anything. The other customers watched on in disbelief and all we could do was have a chuckle about it. Eventually they made me another one and gave it back to me and finally I got a “sorry about that.” Understand mistakes happen but it was pretty poorly handled to be honest. On a brighter note the fish and chips were pretty decent. EDIT: Raising my star rating (from 2 to 4) after Jack (the owner) replied to the review- acknowledging how it happened and how he would address it. I understand mistakes are made (especially when busy and new to the job). As I said the fish and chips were good so I'll be back to give it another try.
