Best Fish and Chips in Fremantle: Harbour Classics and Local Favourites

Fremantle's working port and maritime history have made it one of the best places in Western Australia for fish and chips. The fishing boat harbour on Mews Road is the centrepiece, with a row of seafood restaurants and takeaways serving freshly caught fish just metres from where the boats come in. Barramundi, snapper, flathead and local prawns are regulars on the menu. Sitting on the grassed area with a box of chips while watching harbour activity is a quintessential Fremantle experience. Queues build on weekend lunches, so arriving early helps.
