⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The BEST Fish & Chips in Hervey Bay – An Absolute Must-Visit! If you're looking for authentic, incredibly fresh seafood right on the Torquay foreshore, look no further than Maddigan's Seafood. This place is an absolute Hervey Bay institution for a reason! From the moment you walk up, you can tell you're in for a treat. The service is fast, friendly, and always welcoming, even when they're busy (which they often are!). The real star, of course, is the food. The fish is flaky and perfectly cooked, the batter is light and crisp without being greasy, and the chips are golden and satisfyingly crunchy. We ordered one of their packs and were blown away by the quality and the generous portions. It’s the quintessential Aussie fish and chips experience—best enjoyed right across the road with a view of the beautiful water. They clearly prioritise using the freshest local products, and it shines through in every bite. Don't skip the fresh seafood options if you're planning to cook at home, either. Whether you're a local or just visiting, a trip to Maddigan's is non-negotiable. Five stars...
Read moreHonestly the worst fish and chip place I’ve ever had. Very disappointed as it was recommended from a local and had highly rated reviews. The “fresh” prawns were literally still frozen inside, the meat was rubbery and fibre-y (far from fresh tasting), the red emperor and ocean trout literally tasted and looked the same! Both fish lacked freshness, thickness and flavour. It was very close to FLAKE!!! The chips were tripled cooked as if it was cooked an hour ago and re heated with a third dunking of oil.
Upon returning to complain the “Karens” did not apologise or own up to the foods lack of quality. We spent $98 for everything and it is so sad that this fish and chips store cannot produce the highest quality of seafood while charging a premium. The seafood trawler is literally down the road!!! Come on. My partner fishes recreationally and we both know what seafood and fish variants should taste like. I could go on and on but every fish and chip store are the...
Read moreOur family was only visiting Hervey Bay, and we were in search of the best Fish n Chips takeaway in the area. Maddigans is where we went. I didn't get the Supervisors name that was on, but he was a very kind and friendly gentleman. He gave us the best combination that would cater for 23 people. Even though it was a really busy night for them. Him and his staff were still able to complete our whole order, in less than 30 minutes. The food was beautiful. One of the best I've tasted in Australia and the whole family loved it. I know it was a big ask when I told him, it was a meal to feed 23 Samoans lol Thank you guys for a wonderful meal. I could not fault anything. Portions were on point. We will definitely come back when we're in the area. To that...
