The Fish Tank - Southport Fish & Chippery is a contemporary seafood takeaway and casual dining venue on Queen Street in Southport. Its menu centres on freshly cooked fish and chips, while also extending into burgers, grilled bowls, poke bowls, fish tacos and share platters. Gluten-free options are available, giving the menu a broader reach than a traditional fish and chip shop.

The venue brings a fresh, modern approach to familiar seafood fare. Classic fish and chips remain the focus, with options for diners who prefer grilled food, a bowl-style meal or something designed for sharing. The range also includes gourmet burgers, making the venue suitable for mixed groups where not everyone is looking for seafood.

Seafood is prepared in a straightforward, accessible style, with the menu balancing fried favourites and lighter choices. Fish and chips provide the familiar takeaway option, while grilled bowls and poke bowls offer alternatives with a different format. Fish tacos add another casual choice, and share platters are suited to group orders or a meal built around several items.

The Southport location has a friendly, welcoming character and fits the relaxed pace associated with a local fish and chippery. Service is geared towards practical ordering, with takeaway forming part of the experience. The menu’s mix of classic comfort food and fresher bowl-based options makes it suitable for a quick lunch, an easy dinner or an informal meal with family and friends.

Located at 129 Queen Street, Southport, The Fish Tank adds a modern seafood option to the Gold Coast dining scene. It suits diners seeking familiar fish and chips, groups wanting varied takeaway choices, and anyone looking for a casual venue with seafood, burgers and gluten-free options in the same menu.
