“ AMAZING FISH & CHIPS! My mate & I ordered two flakes ($7 each) and minimum fries ($4) for a total of $18. They're definitely one of the best fish and chips we've ever tasted. The "minimum fries" were probably wrongly named, as the quantity was certainly beyond what we both expected. Staff were friendly too! The lunch here was certainly the highlight of our entire day trip to Ballarat. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, ESPECIALLY FOR OUT-OF TOWNERS (MELBOURNE)! ”

“ Today I tried Steve's for the first time and ordered a minimum chips super crispy...AND THEY CERTAINLY WERE THAT!!! More often than not when you order fish and chips at other shops and ask for extra crispy, they still come out soggy. This was not the case at Steve's!! Overall, very pleased with the service, the brand of chicken salt and ultimately how crispy my chips were. Thank you!!! Will be back in the future to try fish, potato cakes and burger - till then, keep up the good work! Picture 1 - The minimum chips prior to being devoured. Picture 2 - Chips in a better light - observe the crispy-ness. ”

“ Holy moly the chips here are good. I’d have preferred to buy a half size as the minimum serve is enormous and about 2/3 will go to waste. I’m not a small eater, I did my best and barely touched the sides. Crispy outside, hot and fluffy inside and as all good fish and chips should be- wrapped in paper not served on a cardboard tray (not for me). The flake was ok- batter not to thick or greasy but I prefer a thick crumb like you get in North Qld but this was ok. Good portion size, nice enough, but average not spectacular. I appreciated the staff called regulars by name, old fashioned service in a proper fish and chip shop. Only thing missing was value packs and family deals on the blackboard. ”

“ Very old style Fish Shop that's like stepping back in time. Service was good and chips alright but fish poor, too much batter. ”
