Hooked On Middleton Beach, located in Western Australia’s coastal town of Albany, reeled in the title of Australia’s best takeaway fish and chips in 2024, adding yet another accolade to its trophy shelf. The family-run business also won the same award at the WA Seafood Industry Awards earlier this year, beating out Stanley Seafoods in Tasmania and Fisheries on the Spit in Queensland for the national crown.
Not just a “fish and chip restaurant”, Hooked is a celebration of the sea, serving up the freshest daily catches from local fishermen in Albany, Denmark, and Bremer Bay. A classic fish and chips here will set you back just $17, with your fish available lightly battered and fried, or grilled with a choice of lemon pepper or Cajun seasoning. A generous portion of thick, crispy chips seals the deal, and for a touch of nostalgia, you can even throw in a pineapple fritter or Chiko roll. The best part? You can stroll five minutes to Middleton Beach for a sundown session with your takeaway in tow.
