Shoulda posted this earlier. For once in my life, food that LIVES UP to the all the hype I read about it! Call ahead to avoid disappointment. Even the evening before if you want it early! THE BEST fish and chips in WA, hands down, for taste, value-for-money and good service. Once you've had it, I don't see the point of having Fish & Chips anywhere else but Fat Bellies, not even fancy restaurants. (You'd have to drive up to Cervantes for the closest competitor I know.) Crispy batter (just the right thinness), Thick-cut yet perfectly cooked, juicy pieces of fish, Hot chips that stay crispy even after a 15-min commute A friendly ?owner who took my order over the phone around 435pm and gave me the earliest pickup time my meal would be ready A cosily warm, rustic inside with a vintage arcade game while you wait ($1 coin) Staff who noticed I was waiting and reassured me it was coming Easy kerbside parking for pickups Shady playground 3 mins' walk in case you wanted to picnic in the park w kiddos A 2-person fish & chip meal that doesnt cost the earth to feed 3 hungry adults or your little fam. Prepare to overeat if you ordered the Fish&Chips for 2 and only have 2 adults and 2 toddlers eating. If it weren't for my weight I'd be eating here once a week. In a season where every shop is raising prices because potatoes have gone up in cost, because oil is more expensive etc. Fat Bellies puts all its competitors to shame. For once, no photos as we were all too...
Read moreAlways on point: perfect cooked fleshy flaky fish, non-oily chips, amazing value (please don't change), and I have bought Fish n chips for 4 groups of my overseas visitors - and they all say it's the best value (Taste AND Quantity!) Fish & chips they've EVER had! This from people who have eaten in Singapore, Japan, Melbourne, Sydney and some live in NZ. It's so easy to order too - call in at 430pm when they open and say what time U want to pick up. Fish n chips for 2 has never disappointed. Park in front of the store for a quick pickup. Never a longer wait than 1-5 mins this way. Get the family pack if you want a really big feed 😂 we love to have ours in Armadale Memorial Park - just a minute's walk up and around Jull St. - Lovely little park with benches in evenings. And great if you have toddlers. (U can grab a drink from HJ's opposite n free ketchup, if U really need it.i love the fish all on its own! 😆) We never have photos because we just want to dig in right away!! Drooling just...
Read moreFat Bellies is mine and my families local fish and chip shop, it is run by a lovely couple that work hard to bring good quality fish and chips to their customers. The service is excellent ( I call in advance and collect around 15 mins later ) I walk in to pay ( by eftpos ) and I am greeted with a smile and a warm welcome, the fish and chips are wrapped to perfection and are hot and fresh. I always order curry sauce ( which is identical to the fish shops in England ) . The fish tastes amazing, it is the whitest fish I have ever had from a chippy. Thank you Fat Bellies for amazing fish and chips. I would recommend this fish shop to anyone wanting good quality fish and...
