Not super fancy and trendy like some other places around, but it doesn’t need to be.
Just good old school fish and chips done really well. Thanks guys!
I have been going to Old Salt Burger for roughly 7 years now and ordering the Old Salt Burger without onion or pineapple. I have eaten a lot of burgers from a lot of different places, but this burger is objectively my favourite. It is not on any of the delivery apps, surrounded by other "fancier" fish and chip and burger shops and doesn't even have it's own website.
Nevertheless, this humble fish and chip shop produces without fail, the same tried and true, deliciousness ever squeezed between 2 sesame seed buns.
An awesome alternative to the other popular F & C joints in the area. Equally tasty, properly battered, well fried and nicely staffed. Fairly priced and good sized too.
Been very satisfied with the food here. Potato cakes, battered flake, garden salad, chips, dim sims all good for a reasonable price. The burger with the lot was one of the best fish and chip shop burgers I've ever had. Service is fine although some of the cooks look very grumpy haha. I would recommend!
Good quality standard fish and chip shop. When i don't want your Hunky Dory or Belvga type of fish and chips i come here........ Recommended

A really good option if Hunky's is full across the road, The chips are crunchy and soft inside and the fish is just as fresh. The seared tuna with with wasabi mayo i ate which I think was a special for the day was simply divine !
Really nice place for a quick lunch.
I'm not a fish fan myself, but my wife loved the salmon.
Burger was pretty decent as well, especially for the price.
Service was very attentive, worth a visit if you're in the area.
Very nice local fish and chips. Good quality fresh fish. A friend who
Loves burgers says these are excellent also. A couple of tables inside and out if you want to eat there. Salads available. Prompt and friendly. Had become my go to take away in Port.
It's was a wet and miserable Tuesday lunchtime and this was the second busiest fish and chip shop in Melbourne. A must visit for their chips alone. Real chips!
A rather noisy place to have your food in. Not because of the customers but the chatty staffs and the way they cooked. I don't mind it, i think it adds character to the place. I had fish and chips pack and it was great, especially the fish. The batter was thick and looked plain but the taste was awesome. Didnt try the burger but would want to try it one day
Hands down the best fish and chips in Port Melbourne. They do an awesome fish wrap which has never disappointed. They're burgers are fantastic, everything is fresh and not soaked in oil. Service is great, staff are really friendly.
For years this place has delivered the goods every time. And in all those years, nothing's changed. The staff are still friendly as ever (such nice people), the service is still quick, and the chips are still to die for.
Well, one thing has changed. Their new burger absolutely kicks ass.
They've changed from your usual fish and chip shop style burger and gone for an American style burger which literally melts in your hands the minute you pick it up. Juices flow from the big beef patty down your fingers as it melts in your mouth once you take a bite.
I honestly forgot the name of the burger, but it is around $9 and is worth the bump up to $12.50 when you ask for double meat and double bacon (if you eat bacon).
In all the years I've lived in Port Melbourne (my whole life), this is by far the best burger Bay Street has to offer (or anywhere in Port Melbourne for that matter).
Next time you're at Old Salt, make sure you ask for this burger! (See photo)
Went here on Friday night and these guys were getting pumped! People everywhere and while getting slammed, still managed to pump out quality food. I might phone in next time... Two thumbs up!!
Best fish and chips I've ever had. Batter was perfect, chips were great and the salad was delicious. Not too greasy, good size portions. Classic!!
Best burgers around. Tasty, they hold together well, and the perfect meat to sauce ratio. Way better than Andrews in Albert Park. The guys are super friendly and there's no queue.
Old salt in a part of town that is rather devoid of genuine and honest fish and chip places. But have you tried the burgers??? Best burgers by far and wide for a chippy joint and the fish is always fresh and the chips on point every day. Make sure if you're heading beach side that you check this joint out, and make sure you get a dimmy too.
Best fish and chips experience i have had in recent years. Way better than Hunky Dory. Had the nicest grilled habuka and salad. My fiance knew of the secret burger menu and ordered The Beavis (big mac copy but better). Highly recommended.
Old Salt does it again. Not in Port Melbourne Much anymore but always a good feed. All good blokes
Delicious!. Beautiful fresh fish and crisp chips....but do yourself a favour and try one of the burgers!
The double beef is amazing! Be warned though that you'll need a big appetite and won't need any sides! The burgers will take you back to the good old days of Milk Bar burgers.
Friendly service too. Expect a line on a Friday night - that's how good these guys are!
Best fish & chips in Melbourne. Also really appreciate the friendly staff.
The 'old salt' burger is delicious, as are all the calamari rings, potatoe cakes and dim sims. The guys behind the counter as very friendly and rememeber their customers personally after only a couple of visits
No doubt the best shop on the strip.
Apart from the boys being Carlton supporters, they deliver sensational food!
Amazing !!! Came here with my children after being caught in the rain we ducked in for a quick bite. We loved the food and even better service. The guys were friendly, helpful and very accommodating ( having two kids sitting at the bench constantly asking them questions ). Have already made plans to head back with friends on the weekend. Great old school fish and chips with a modern twist. The burger also was divine. 10/10 guys. Well done !
Old Salt Burger. Best Fish and Chip shop burger I've had. Hands down. Double pattie, double cheese, bacon, grilled onion and pineapple, lettuce, tomato and sauce. Need I say more. If you're hungry, do yourself a favour and go down and grab one. I'm glad I did!
NICE FISH`N CHIPS & BURGERS. These boys have been around for years, from toorak rd to bay st great fresh food, love the sav`s old school days !!! yummy burgers !!!!
Best fish and chips in port melbourne by a long shot! Friendly staff and great melbournized fitout. Top job lads!
Fabulous Prawns!. Had lunch sitting outside on a beautiful sunny day with friends. Their flathead tails were so fresh, my chilli prawns were huge, and we couldn't get through the generous serve of crisp and chunky chips. an experience not to be missed
Beautiful fish with great chips. I tried a few fish and chip places along Bay Street while staying in Port Melbourne and Old Salt Fish and Chips was by far the best.
The fish (I had flathead) was very fresh with a lovely light batter and the chips chunky and crisp with no greasiness at all.
I loved it and would definitely recommend.
Excellence Personified!. Great experience - calamari was A grade, fish was beautiful, potato cake immense!
And great friendly service too.
And not overly greasy so didn't have the sick and full experience after eating.
Will be back for sure
Best fish and chips in port Melbourne. I had a piece of snapper and chips and it was outstanding. Dodge the hype and crowd at hunky dory over the road this place has it well and truly covered.
Fantastic fish & chips!!! Fish and chips shops are a dime a dozen, average fish & and chip stores that is... This place is an absolute gem! Old fashioned chunky chips fried to a perfect crunch and meaty fried fish with a thin crisp batter. The servings are generous! Honestly hope this place never changes.
Best chips. I do not eat seafood but my partner and kids do, this is the place to go for good seafood....according to them! I do however love their chips, crunchy even when brought home. Hunky Dory down the street is absolutely horrible, we never go there anymore after we found Old salt.... and we even get a discount there but SOOOOOO not worth it.
Don't miss a beat. Boys in there always take care of regulars. And the old salt burger keeps you full for about eight hours, its actually a worry.
Fish was crisp and nicely cooked and chips were fresh and handcut.
As far as fish n chips shops go this ones right up there with the best. Keep up the good work
The best fish and chip shop on Bay St... Hands down. Don't waste your time at others...
Great fish and chips and nice friendly staff.. The Greek salad was perfect as was the flake and chips.. I will be going back for sure.. I hear the old school burger goes alright!!!
Been coming here for a few months now, great fish and chips at a very fair price. Really friendly people and you have to try the souvlaki!
Like. Great fish and chips and great staff
Very good fish and chips. Will definitely go again. The meleh was very yebis loved it
Great authentic fish and chips. I highly recommend this place for good food and service
Epic!. The fried fish at this place is absolutely sensational. I don't know whats inside that batter, but it almost has a KFC skin like taste to it. You gotta try it.
Bloody brilliant!
The souvlakis are immense!
Best burgers in town. Must try the old salt burger......to die for.
Best fish and chips in town. Burgers are also awesome. Ziggy was a great help.
Will definitely come again.
Best Burgers in Melbourne. We make the trek to this Port Melbourne landmark most weeks as we know no matter what we choose it will be of the best quality, fresh and flavoursome. The burger with the lot is amazing, as is the fish burger and the souvlakis are out of this world and the chips are amongst the best I have ever had. Prices are good and service is great. It can get busy on a Friday and Saturday night, which is a testament to it's popularity, but well worth the wait.
Best Fish & Chips. If you want to never be disappointed in buying fish and chips, head to the Old Salt. I have the fish once a fortnight and it is perfection. Unlike Hunky Dory's and Delish Fish whose fish are swimming in batter the Old Salt salt makes authentic fish and chips.
Great authentic fish & chips and well priced. The chips here are the best! Very friendly staff too :-)
Really enjoyed this. Old school fish and chips with a modern twist. Chips cooked perfectly, salad freshly made. Plenty of menu options & friendly service. I'll be back for sure
Great no frills fish & chip shop. Best I've had for years. Cooked to perfection.
Best fish and chips. The chips here are chunky and cooked to perfection.
Normally split the old salt pack with the hubby, great deal for $11.
The fish burger is also delicious.
I really love old salt. It's old school meets new school. Im definetly a regular now :)
Great place for a quick quality bite. Loved the variety and friendly service.
Amazing. The best grilled fish i've had in a long time.
So good that I created an urbanspoon account just to review it! Beautiful fresh fish, superbly crispy batter, potato cakes that satisfy potato cake fanatics, big juicy scallops and OH MY GOD what awesome chips! Well-staffed by friendly people who seem to know exactly what they're doing and to top it all off there's a giant jar of pickled onions!
Best place to have old fashioned fish and chips. Great service too - very friendly staffs
Great. Old fashioned chips and great fish. Love it. Better than Hunky Dorys!
Great Old school fish and chips, brilliant snapper, calamari and prawns, fresh and didn't leave you feeling bloated afterwards. Will def. go again
Great service, hard workers and my menu favourite would have to be the burger with the lot!
Great Fish and Chips. Just perfect! Loved it. The service was exceptional; it was fast and so fresh and yummy
real quality seafood and a lot of variety including packages if you like. I can't believe the value for such freshness and quality and also it was so clean
This place was the best fish and chip shop I have been to for a long time. Burgers are unbelievable.
The thing I appreciate most about this shop is I asked for crispy chips and they indeed deliver! The batter is also nicely done. All in all a very satisfying experience.
Old Salt burger was excellent. Meat is good quality and not greasy. Chips crisp and tasty. Definitely best fresh, so consider ordering and waiting.
