About The Fishery

Run by chefs in Milton, The Fishery balances a pristine wet-fish counter with crisp, cooked-to-order seafood meals that skip the heavy grease. Customers drop in for generous packs of barramundi or crumbed swordfish, paired with hot chips dusted in chicken salt. Instead of tired slaws, orders come alongside a fresh garden salad tossed with cucumber, red onion, and house vinaigrette. Take a seat at the casual outdoor tables with your own bottle of wine—or grab a parcel of oven-baked fish to eat back home.

  • Fishmonger Display & Made-to-Order Meals: Pick out fresh raw fillets to cook at home, or have them prepared to order on the spot by kitchen staff.
  • Crisp Batters & Fresh Cut Salads: Seafood comes served alongside crisp chips and a mixed salad tossed with cucumber, tomato, and vinaigrette.
  • Outdoor Seating & BYO: Guests can grab casual outside seating and bring their own wine while waiting for takeaway packs.

  • Fresh-Cut Mixed Garden Salad

    Takeaway packs include made-to-order garden salad with separate vinaigrette dressing rather than standard pre-mixed commercial sides.

    especially the salad when shops usually have everything pre cut and tasting slightly old.
