Plan your visitAbout Mac's Takeaway
Mac's Takeaway keeps the classic Queensland fish-and-chip shop alive with generous portions, friendly counter service, and prices that feel like a throwback. The fryers turn out crisp cod, house-made calamari rings, and battered banana fritters alongside golden potato scallops cut fresh in the kitchen. Orders come packed with heaping scoops of hot, seasoned chips that easily feed a family on the run.
- Scratch-Made Favourites: Calamari rings, potato scallops, and banana fritters are prepped and battered fresh in the shop rather than sourced frozen.
- Old-School Chip Scoops: Hot chips are portioned by the scoop at wallet-friendly prices that keep weeknight family feeds affordable.
