Captain Kerr's Fish N Chips - Orewa

Exceptional 'gourmet ' fish and chips. Everything here is just a little higher quality and a little more special. I particularity appreciate they way they serve/wrap everything separately, so the fish is never in with the chips and soggy, even the fritters are served in their own little bag. Makes a big difference!

We have been here a few times before. It's a step up from your regular burger joint, with a lot of items made in house and a selection of salads on the menu.<br/ <br/ Today we made a phone order for two veggie burgers, a hamburger, a kids hamburger and chips. The phone was answered straight away and everything was ready when they said it would be. This came to $30:50 for a family of 4.<br/ <br/ The lack of parking right outside can be off putting on cold winter nights, but the food is always good.

Food ordered:<br/ 1x Seafood Chowder (regular <br/ 1x Seafood Chowder (large <br/ <br/ Bill: $21<br/ <br/ Big Tummy: Being one of my absolute all time faves, I've somewhat made it a personal mission to find the best seafood chowder in Auckland. And in Captain Kerrs homemade offering, I think we have a clear winner. I've tried seafood chowder at restaurants and takeaway establishments all over Auckland and, quite simply, none of them come close to the taste and assortment of whole seafood that comes with the chowder at CK. At $8.50 for a regular serving, with whole prawns, scallops and mussels (along with the usual diced fish and calamari they really do put some of the other more fancied places to shame. Located right on the beach, you really couldn't ask for more from a fish'n'chips store. Heck, we live 30min away from Orewa and would still rather make the drive up there, than settle for any of the local offerings. <br/ <br/ Little tummy: Hands down the best seafood chowder in Auckland. For less than $10 you get more seafood than you would for double the price at some other places (for shame you know who you are . The regular serving always leaves me super full, but I still find myself finishing it every time (mainly to stop my bf from eating it! . Pick up some bread rolls from the super market and treat yourself a trip to CKs for their seafood chowder. It's well worth the trip!

Good fish, especially crumbed or grilled. Snapper burgers are good too. Often during busy times you have to wait for 10-20 minutes, but worth the wait.

Great takeaways tonight. fish, squid rings, oyster, scallops and chips.. the best we've had on the Coast. also I got the grilled snapper salad. it was delicious. fresh crisp. the fish was cooked perfectly, not greasy and not too much dressing.
