About Tides Inn Fish Cafe

Tides Inn Fish Cafe nails classic takeaway fish and chips, frying crisp in clean oil with portions large enough to feed a crowd. The setup leans strictly traditional—paper-wrapped bundles, hot flake, and crunchy chips that skip the heavy grease. Order crumbed sea scallops with the roe left on for a sweet, creamy bite, or grab beef burgers and house-battered fish for an easy family dinner. Behind the counter, watch the kitchen dip and fry fresh dagwood dogs straight to order on a wooden stick.

  • Roe-on Sea Scallops: Sweet sea scallops crumbed with the roe intact for extra richness.
  • Fresh Dagwood Dogs: Dipped and fried to order in view of the counter instead of pre-frozen sticks.
  • Family-Sized Feeds: Generous bundles of flake, calamari, and crisp chips that easily feed groups with leftovers.

  • Hand-Dipped Fresh Dagwood Dogs

    Dagwood dogs are battered and cooked fresh right in the open kitchen rather than reheated from frozen stock.

  • Reliable Burger & Non-Fish Choices

    A dedicated menu with satisfying burger alternatives and kids items makes dinner easy when ordering for diverse appetites.

    The beef burgers are also delicious. Would definitely recommend trying it out if you don't feel like fish.

Before you head over

Practical tips for ordering, wait times, and portion planning at Tides Inn Fish Cafe.

  • Expect Longer Waits on Holiday Nights

    Major peak evenings like Good Friday can bring waits around an hour, so consider placing orders early or popping back when busy.

  • Allow Extra Buffer for Phone Orders

    Ordering ahead by phone is common, but wait times during dinner service can stretch past initial estimates, so budget extra buffer.

  • Portion Sizing for Group Orders

    Family packs offer exceptionally generous portions that frequently feed far more people than labelled and yield next-day leftovers.
