A bustling cafe, with a seafood focus, kept busy with the tourist trade on Stradbrook Island. Service is friendly, and food is tasty, with generous portions, and reasonable value for money. It ain’t real fancy, but it’s super popular all day long. Lots of free chilled bottled water in the fridge inside. We had a couple of chicken thigh burgers, a salt and pepper squid, some of which was a like on the chewy side, and a barra burger. No complaints from anyone. The fries are crispy coated - thanks! And they are delicious!!
The food here was REALLY good. I ordered barramundi, chips and calamari. It was nice, but a little greasy, and the waiters took around 45 minutes to serve it. I would recommend this, but as an one-off.
Love the food. Me and my family always make sure we go to ribs night when we holiday here. The burgers are delicious and chips crispy and crunchy
More of a cafe/fish and chip shop then a restaurant, but it is relaxed with really good service! Food is basic but good or be it over priced (but this is the norm at point lookout). Definitely one of the better places to eat at point lookout!
Friendly service, flexible and accommodating with our custom order (12 nuggets and a portion of chips for $10). Nice work Fishes on the Point.
As a vegatarian on an island I was pretty excited to see vego lasagne, vego burger and vego nachos on the menu! I got the nachos and they were really really good! My boyfriend also enjoyed the seafood. It's set up like a takeaway, but the menu is better than your standard fish and chip shop and the staff were lovely too!
Hearty food. AND they take phone takeaway orders on Friday night while you are still on the ferry.
Fish, Chips and Salad. The Barramundi was grilled to perfection with a nice bit of golden-brown all over the fillet, laying on top of a bed of freshly fried chips (I like them with the tartare sauce, always), and side salad which was absolutely refreshing.
Loved the food we had on our first night on the island so much, that we came back for lunch the next day. Therefore had 4 different meals here...all delicious. Highly recommended. Friendly service from the lovely girl from Scarborough UK 🇬🇧. 😊
As for fish and chips, these guys have all the bases covered and the food is good (we ordered the family pack for 4 people at $100 - have a look at the pix). Generous serving of lemon wedges and tartar sauce and overall quality was positive. Seating location is not bad and you can also takeaway and enjoy your food with stunning clif-side view of the beach... Staff were friendly and I asked multiple times for a few extra things like sauces and plates to share food and responses were ok at peak businesses and there were no nonsense extra charges for ketchup or anything. Cutlery was wood so no plastic and things were MOSTLY served in paper/cardboard which was great. It would have been great if they had a recycling bin for all the paper (and the plastics) but they did have one for glass and cans.
Enjoyed two breakfasts here. The wait was fine — I suggest an early visitation, avoiding the crowd is a must. Poached eggs were perfectly done, as were the pancakes.
I can honestly not rate this place enough. The customer service I received today was phenomenal.
(A very) long story short, I didn’t have cash on me to pay for my bus ticket. Kayley, the lovely hostess at fishies at the point was so amazing in trying to help me find somewhere I could get some cardless cash out. She went out back to try and get some suggestions from coworkers (Connor and Cayderyn) who, upon hearing about my situation, gave me money from their own pockets.
I genuinely could not thank these lovely people more if I tried. I found out I was able to get cash out at the local food works and was able to return their money along with a $10 tip but their generosity was astounding and definitely needs to be commended.
So thank you again to the amazing team!!! I will definitely suggest this place to anyone I know coming to the island.
