Captain Con's Fish and Chips

"my partner and i, just ordered a family pack and 4 battered hotdogs , honestly the best fish n chips we ever had . you guys have outdone yourselves , everything was amazing and the kids loved it too. thank you"

"Well run happy staff pleasant and polite we had grilled fish (wow) beautifully crumb and cooked to perfection potato cakes were just as nice big golden and crunchy.Captain con runs a great ship..well great shop..very clean one of the best of seen and been to..totally recommended and cant wait to go back..well done.."

"Flake was so thin and yet was like leather, dim sums were clearly old stock and tasted horrible and the crab/fish sticks were still ice cold in the middle. Despite so many positive reviews, I’m actually horrified as to the horrible content of my order tonight. I won’t recommend or return to this place"

"I wonder at the negative reviews of this business. This is no more or less than a traditional Greek Fish and Chip Shop that offers amazing food and a larger variety of fish then most Fish & Chipper's at a reasonable price - if not at an under priced assessment, when you try it. Plus you have the wider selection of fish to select like: Blue Grenadier, Butterfish, Barramundi, Hake, King George Whiting - not to mention their array of shell fish which can be deep fried, fried or just plain grilled. This includes the fish too. Like most fish and chippers - it's the fresh (and continuously filtered) oil that really makes the difference to the purity of the food your pay for - and with all of these establishments - you can taste it with the deep fried chips (it honestly should be a measure with fish & chips shops). Chips are supposed to taste like potato and (if luxurious, a slight taste of flavoured oil) but this is not a gourmet restaurant - and it should be appreciated for the fresh, crisp, hot and clean products it provides. Superb! Lastly, as this is a Greek Fish and chip store - they also offer Souvlakis and Gyros (Properly pronounce - yeeross). For those who don't know - a souvlaki is not a kebab - and in my opinion, a kebab is close but a souvlaki is perfection - and this place honors that tradition with delicious lamb pieces - and not a large shaved rotating cooked spicy lamb roll. Other meats and veggie options are available. Burgers are also available but i haven't tried them. So lets assess the store and its operation: 1. It is very anti-internet or internet based delivery systems - which is understandable considering the mark ups. You will only know about this business due to google atm - and im not even sure that this amazing cookery is aware of it. 2. The prices are extremely reasonable (if not a steal) for the quality of a local Fish and Chip store and the offerings of seafood they provide. 3. On most occasions if you order a pack that includes 4 potato cakes - you will probably get five (this may not be typical of most local stores - it is never expected of the customer but they do it on occasion which is special) 4. The customer service is good - unless you are being dealt with by Con (the owner - who genuinely is a great guy) and the family. Every place has casuals who are learning, so be kind and tolerant here. 5. Lunch packs are amazing value (See Photo) - if you want a cheeky deep fried indulgence ladies, grab a girlfriend and one of these to split between you. Talk to Con and see if you can get an additional salad (not on menu atm) for the same price and your $25 Friday lunch is sorted. 6. You can pre-order if you are local (or regular) so if you have to travel a bit to get lunch or dinner - you can call the number. Give your name, order, and while you are driving home to Pakenham you can time your pick up on the Friday CBF cooking night for the family and enjoy a full pre-cooked belly with a glass of wine/bottle of beer. Job Done. 7. Close on Mondays & Tuesdays It's a great Fish and Chip place - full of options for lunch, single dinner, couples dinners or family deep fried salted (or tomato, or whatever dressing you drown it in) madness of hot comfort on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday night. I hope you experience it and feel the same."
