$18.00 for a burger with a processed patty and a Cole’s burger roll…. Not the shop it used to be when Micheal ran it.

Best fish & chips I've had in a long time! Was craving just that traditional flake, potato cake & chips meal & this place did not disappoint. Flake was perfect & the chips even better, all cooked evenly & beautifully golden! Must go back as I'm yet to try their amazing looking vanilla slice!

I have no idea why the other two reviews are talking about vanilla slices from a fish and chip shop ... maybe the business has changed its stock or management since 2012. They are a take away food shop which offers icecream as well. In a right angled group of shops on the corner of Cook St - no 5 to be precise. There are outside and inside tables and chairs and a wide variety of food of this sort to be had - souvlaki, wedges, hamburgers, steak sandwiches etc.

We had been visiting local spots like the lighthouse and so what better than to sample the fish - a touch expensive at $6.30 each, but the redeeming feature was the very kind and honest owner. He pointed out to me that instead of separately ordering 6 flake, chips etc, I could get a family pack for $40 and just add two extra fish. This worked out to be a good saving, so kudos to this guy.

Large chips was generous, fish well cooked and the batter just a little tiny bit too crunchy for my liking but not oily at all. Sitting at the cliff top with the seagulls and a magpie waiting for the crumbs, eating this meal was a great experience.

Approximate cost: $40

Victorians boast about being the best in the country/world about so many things and I often find these perspectives quite insular and exaggerated. Besides shopping and coffee - one of the state's great claims to fame - is Vanilla Slice. The township Sorrento often pops up in the hunt for the best Vanilla Slice. But in this local take-away food shop in charming Flinders, they boast the biggest and best vanilla slice in the world. Ah - the bold bravado of this statement! What I love about this proud shopfront banner, is that I'm actually prepared to completely back it, based on my own personal experiences of course. One Vanilla slice will set you back only a couple of dollars more than any petite average bakery serve, but here is so large that it would easily feed four - making it a very inexpensive sweet feed. I had tried the famous Flinders Vanilla Slice a few years ago, and at the time found it too egg-y. Recently however, the improvements were quite incredible. Our serve was delicious, well balanced and very fresh. Something I'd recommend to all visitors to Flinders. Their hot chips probably don't fall into the inexpensive category (to be fair though, Flinders generally is expensive), - but we really enjoyed them.
