Overview

Leopold Fish & Chips, tucked away at 47 Ash Rd in Leopold, VIC, is a true gem for those craving a classic fish and chip experience with an authentic, old-school flair. This family-run restaurant captures the nostalgia of a 1990s vibe — low lighting, a brick interior, and the comforting hum of the footy on TV create a warm, inviting atmosphere that instantly takes you back to simpler times.

The main draw here, of course, is their fish and chips, and they deliver with consistent quality. The fish batter is crisp and golden, perfectly encasing tender, flaky fillets that satisfy a deep craving for traditional Aussie seafood. Accompanying these are chips cooked to perfection: crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, a hallmark of a well-executed chippy staple. Beyond the staple flake fish, Leopold offers a variety of seafood sundries, like calamari rings and prawn cutlets, each bringing its own fresh, satisfying crunch.

Leopold’s menu extends beyond fish and chips, showcasing a unique twist with pineapple and banana fritters that add a subtle sweetness, standing out as must-tries for those eager to explore more inventive flavors. Their selection also includes hearty hamburgers and steak sandwiches that impress with homemade potato cakes and thoughtfully crafted toppings, delivering solid value and taste.

What truly elevates the Leopold experience is the personalized service—a rarity in today’s fast-paced world. The family owners exude genuine hospitality, making every customer feel welcome and appreciated. Their willingness to accommodate special requests, knowledge of seafood origins, and trust extended to patrons (like allowing takeaway orders without immediate payment) reveal the heart behind the business. This level of care resonates deeply with locals and visitors alike, cultivating loyalty and a sense of community around the table.

Leopold Fish & Chips is perfect for anyone craving comfort food served with honest smiles in a place that feels like home. Whether you're a local regular, a family outing looking for dependable fare, or a traveler wanting a taste of authentic Australian fish and chips, this spot blends tradition with freshness and friendliness effortlessly. For those who value atmosphere as much as quality, Leopold is a standout destination on the Geelong coastline.

This place had the retro fish and chip vibe I miss!! Low lighting, tv with the footy on and all set in a rad brick building straight out of 1992. It totally took me back to my childhood. The food was good. Flake wasnt fresh but the batter was great. I scoffed it before I thought to take a photo so there ya go! It needed some lemon/lime and mayo. I asked for extra chicken salt on the order and it was exactly as I wanted - with a nice Mitani-tasting seasoning. For some reason the batter on the crab sticks wasn’t as good as the flake but they still hit the spot. Service and prices were unbeatable. A flake, min chips, x2 dimmies and x2 crab sticks for $20…served with genuine smiles. Try finding that in Melbourne these days! In a weird way I love that they don’t take eftpos. Next door the lovely mum and her daughter in the supermarket were more than willing to accommodate. Overall an awesome, old school fish and chip experience on my final night in Geelong. Highly recommend!

The food is consistently top-notch. The fish boasts a crispy, golden batter encasing tender, flaky meat, while the chips are perfectly cooked—crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. Their unique offerings, like pineapple and banana fritters, are a must-try and add a sweet twist to the traditional menu.

It’s that old school fish and chip joint you remember as kid. The burgers are top tier, home made potato cakes, well priced and the service is great. If you’re looking for a decent fish and chip shop, that’s authentic, decent price and actually get what you were expecting, then you won’t be disappointed.

BEST FISH ‘n’ CHIPS in LEOPOLD! just around the corner from me I found this awesome fish and chip shop and I’m so glad I did! Beautiful, tasty and fresh fish, potato cakes but you just have to try their pineapple and banana fritters – OMG, absolutely delicious! They’re so friendly being a family run business, from ordering over the phone to picking it up, they’re always so quick, friendly and affordable. Emily’s just a darling girl! Having recently moved back home from Brisbane, I asked if they had a particular fish that I loved from up there. They didn’t however had a similar one but what I found impressive was that they knew what part of the sea/ocean it swims in! I was able to get something very similar and it was fresh, plump and really tasty! Thanks so much for your wonderful food and really friendly service,keep up the great work! First not realising that they don’t have EFTPOS, they let me take the food home knowing that I would definitely return the next day with payment – how often do you find that in any store anywhere in the world? They’re amazing, simply amazing! you’ve definitely got a customer for life in me!
