Captain Cookes Fish & Chippery

We'd seen a fair bit of hype about this place on Facebook so for lunch we ordered what we'd normally order from our local place in Plenty River Estate. Price-wise, it was $4 more expensive than our usual. Not a deal breaker. Pros: The place is modern and nicely decked out, they've spent a lot of money on it obviously. The staff were nice and greeted me warmly. The flake was plump, juicy and well cooked and came with a slice of lemon. Cons: The small chips from our local will feed two adults plus a 9 year old glutton with chips left over. This place it's more like a snack size for one person and yet I'm paying $2 more for them. Not impressed at all. Everything tasted like it was cooked in old oil but it might be because they use rice bran oil. We didn't like the taste of any of it regardless. The chips and potato cakes only tasted of the oil with a little bit of potato flavour here and there. The potato cakes and fried dim sims were overcooked to the point of being partially burnt. They were not pleasant to eat and I had to leave the large burnt chunk. Overall we won't be back as we don't see the point in paying a bit more for worse food that's slightly further away but we gave it a shot. It looks like lots of others have had much better experiences but we did not.

We really loved our experience here the food was delicious and service was second to none! There were so many options I had the fried chicken burger which was crispy and full of flavour. The servings were generous I highly recommend if you’re after clean, fresh and delicious fish n chips for your family

More than just fish and chips. Staff are so friendly such a vibe. I had lamb skewers pack the meat was tender and full of flavour and generous portion size. Crunchy potatoes cakes and dim sims. See you again soon next time I’ll make room for dessert.

First time trying out this amazing restaurant and can’t wait to go back. The food was absolutely delicious and the service topped it. The friendly smiles from the moment we walked in really made the difference for me. The man at the front ( sorry I didn’t get your name) helped me decide what to get and I loved everything. Super clean food and super fast service. 10/10
