Tally Valley Seafood is a laid-back local counter turning out fresh, custom-cooked catch and crisp chips in generous valley portions. Regulars heading inland to the rock pools detour here for the fresh display cabinet—pick your cut, get it weighed, and have it grilled, battered, or thinly crumbed on demand. Snapper, flathead, and tender calamari hit the butcher paper piping hot alongside golden potato scallops and crunchy, well-seasoned chips.
- Custom-Cooked Display Cabinet: Choose fillets directly from the fresh wet cabinet, weighed to order and prepared grilled, battered, or crumbed.
- Valley Excursion Takeaway: Hearty portions of crisp chips, calamari, and crumbed fish make an easy pitstop en route to the rock pools.

Bj Harris Perfect Tallebudgera Valley Pit Stop
Located conveniently on the valley corridor, it makes an ideal takeaway lunch spot when exploring local creek swimming holes and reserves.
Stopped here on the way to the rock pools and as someone from England I'm quite fussy about my fish and chips.

highly recommend stopping in if you’re heading out of town, or look somewhere on the fringe on the way to the beach that’s less busy.

Billy Jack Custom Preparation & Specialty Requests
The kitchen happily accommodates tailored frying requests, from extra crispy chip batches to specialty deep-fried fresh oysters.
They even deep fried oysters for me which, having grown up with them in NZ, was a treat to find a business happy to give them a try.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does ordering fish and custom cooking work?
You can pick fresh fish straight from the display cabinet to be weighed and priced, and request it cooked to your preference—grilled, battered, or crumbed. The kitchen can also accommodate custom requests such as deep-frying fresh oysters or making chips extra crispy.
What are the portion sizes like?
Portions are notably generous. Orders such as fish, calamari, and chip packs are filling enough to share or split across meals, and children's burger and chip meals are generously sized.
How long is the wait during busy periods?
During peak lunch and weekend rushes, staff operate efficiently like a well-oiled machine, calling out numbers as orders wrap. Wait times typically remain around 10 minutes even when both inside and outside waiting areas are busy.
Is on-site parking easily available?
Parking is available on site with parking lots and street spaces, but spaces can be tight and busy because the lot is shared with other neighboring eateries. Drivers should take extra care navigating the shared area.
