About A Salt & Battery Fish & Chips

A Salt & Battery elevates the neighborhood fish and chippery into a relaxed, sit-down café with ocean-fresh fillets and crisp batter. Raw snapper and flathead sit on display right at the front counter, cooked to order so your calamari and chips arrive clean, piping hot, and never soggy. Long wooden tables and outdoor seating make sharing seafood platters effortless—complete with proper steel cutlery. Diners love grabbing a cold bottle from the bottlo next door to enjoy with grilled barramundi and halloumi salad out in the breeze.

  • Fresh Seafood Counter: Whole fillets like snapper and flathead are displayed fresh at the counter and cooked to order with crisp, light batter.
  • Casual Café Dining: Sit-down outdoor and indoor tables feature real steel cutlery and space for sharing platters.
  • BYO Friendly: Customers can bring their own drinks, with a convenient bottle shop located right next door.

Why Choose A Salt & Battery Fish & Chips

Why St Lucia diners choose A Salt & Battery for fresh seafood and relaxed meals

  • Crisp, Non-Greasy Seafood Cooked to Order

    Meals are cooked to order using visible, quality seafood fillets in clean batter rather than soggy grease.

    The beer battered fish wasn't greasy at all.

  • Fresh Fillets Showcased on Front Display

    Guests can inspect the raw fillets arranged right in the counter window before ordering.

    Everything is made from the freshest ingredients - you can see all the fish right there on display.

  • Generous Seafood Platters for Gatherings

    Generous shareable platters provide an easy, cost-effective feast for groups and celebrations.

    We ordered the seafood platter for two, which was plenty for two adults and one toddler.

  • Convenient BYO Dining for Group Feasts

    Casual group meals are elevated by permitting guests to bring their own drinks from the bottle shop next door.

    Also BYO with the Bottlo next door is very handy.

  • Proper Steel Cutlery at the Table

    Guests dine with proper reusable stainless cutlery and cold tap water rather than disposable single-use plastic.

    Very pleasant touch is use of proper steel utensiles!

  • Cozy Sit-Down Café Atmosphere

    Attentive table service and a tidy dining area deliver a relaxed café experience beyond typical takeout counters.

    The place is clean and cozy, and the staff are very attentive and polite.

Freshly prepared seafood favorites and signature dishes cooked to order

  • Seafood with chips platter for two

    We ordered a seafood with chips platter for two that comes with a choice of salad. Very delicious except for the prawn fritters which were a bit dry but the fish and scallop and calamari were delicious.

  • Salt and pepper calamari

    Also had a serve of salt and pepper calamari - damn tasty, fresh and so tender.

  • Battered snapper and chips

    This place has the best battered snapper and chips around. It’s a little expensive, but worth the money because the fish actually tastes really fresh.

    Terry Keleher

  • Fish tacos

    The fish tacos was tasty especially once the lemon is squeezed.

Before you head over

Practical tips for ordering, group dining, and service timing

  • Order Seafood Cooked In-House

    If you want your catch cooked fresh to order, order from the dine-in or hot menu rather than expecting to purchase raw retail fillets to cook at home, as counter displays are reserved for prepared dishes.

  • Utilise BYO With the Bottle Shop Next Door

    Take advantage of the venue's BYO-friendly setup for group dinners by picking up your preferred drinks from the bottle shop situated right next door.

  • Allow Time for Made-to-Order Platters

    Seafood platters and made-to-order fillets are prepared freshly per ticket, which can take 20 minutes or longer during peak rushes—plan for a relaxed sit-down meal.
