Red Fish Blue Fish
A harbour-side seafood counter for fish, chips, tacos, and lineups.
Sustainable fish and chips out of a shipping container on the pier.
An up-cycled cargo container parked on the Broughton Street pier, with a line that's basically part of the experience and a harbour view you'd pay extra for anywhere else. Ocean Wise sustainable, good enough that the Food Network came filming, and exactly the kind of place visitors photograph and locals just quietly eat.
The move
Tempura-battered Pacific cod and chips is the classic, but the Pacific Rim chowder is the sleeper everyone ends up talking about. Halibut when it's on. Eat it leaning on the pier rail.
Go when
A sunny lunch, with patience for the line. Skip it if you need a table or the rain's coming in sideways.
