Fish On The Rocks - Hout Bay

Calamari calamari calamari! Wow. I can’t even find other words. Just wow. And the price is really good. I enjoyed the rustic sea-side Harbour vibes.

The best fish and chips in cape town and a must visit! There's ample seating and wonderful views of the bay. Make sure to put extra extra vinegar.

This place has everything you'd want for a great dining experience. Friendly staff, view of the bay, generous portion sizes and fantastic food! We tried yellow tail, prawns and calamari. Would have hoped for fresh cut chips and not the ready cut but it did not detract from the overall experience.

Fish on the Rocks is my favorite Fish and Chips place in Cape Town and also one of the “must see” tourist locations.<br/ <br/ They always have queues but they work so fast that you don’t stand long in the queue and your food is fresh when you get it. After having your meal you can admire the scenery around the restaurant which overlooks the Atlantic Ocean entering the Hout Bay/False Bay Area.

Via the stunning views from Chapman’s Peak we arrived in picturesque Hout Bay moments before the lunch time rush for some of its famous Vis en Tjips(fish&chips). The debate spanning decades is whether you get the best fish and chips from Snoekies or Fish on the rocks? Having tried Snoekies previously at both Hout Bay and their franchise outlets and having heard great things from Lucianrajah we opted for Fish on the rocks. We were not disappointed! A party of 3 we ordered 2x Hake and chips and for something a little different I sampled the Snoek and chips, even being as busy as they were service was exceptional and before we knew it we had been digging in to our hearty portions. Upon first glance we assumed we would have left overs for dinner though it really hit the spot and got wiped out. The fish and chips were simply outstanding, all you could possibly ask for. The fish was fresh, the batter crisp and the ambiance created from very satisfied customers and the beautiful setting really topped it of. I highly recommend Fish on the Rocks to anyone going out to Hout Bay!
