Fresh Fish Perth: Locally-Sourced WA Seafood at Tankk Fish and Chips
If you're after fresh fish in Perth, you want to know it's been handled right from the moment it's caught. At Tankk Fish and Chips, we've built our whole operation around one simple idea: get the best West Australian seafood, prep it fresh to order, and serve it the way it should be—no shortcuts, no freezers full of mystery fillets.
We've got two locations across Perth—one in Winthrop and another in Melville—so whether you're nearby or passing through, you're never far from a proper feed. Both spots work the same way: locally-sourced seafood, cooked when you order it, not sitting under a heat lamp.
What Makes Our Seafood Different
Here's the thing about fresh fish in Perth: there's plenty of it around, but not everyone treats it with respect. We work directly with trusted WA suppliers who know their stuff. That means our snapper, dhufish, whiting, and prawns come from waters we actually know—not shipped in frozen from halfway across the world.
Every piece of fish that comes through our kitchen gets prepped fresh. We're not batch-cooking and reheating. You order, we cook. It takes a bit longer sometimes, but that's the trade-off for getting seafood that actually tastes like the ocean, not the freezer.
Locally-Sourced WA Seafood
We're lucky in Perth. We've got some of the best fishing waters in the country right on our doorstep. Our suppliers bring in daily catches, and we turn them into meals the same day. Whether it's grilled, battered, or crumbed, you're getting WA seafood at its best.
People often ask what's in season or what we recommend. Honestly, it changes based on what's coming in fresh that week. Our crew at both the Winthrop and Melville stores can tell you what's best on the day—just ask. We're not reading off a script; we actually know the fish we're serving.
Two Perth Locations: Winthrop and Melville
Our Winthrop spot is a local favourite, easy to swing by after picking up the kids from school or heading home from the river. It's the kind of place where regulars know us by name, and we know their usual order.
The Melville location serves the same quality, same approach. Close to the cafe strip and Melville Primary, it's perfect for a quick lunch or dinner without the fuss. Both stores have the full menu, and both deliver through Uber Eats and Menulog if you'd rather eat at home.
Order Fresh Fish for Delivery or Pickup
Not everyone wants to dine in, and that's fine by us. You can order online through Uber Eats or Menulog and get the same fresh, made-to-order seafood delivered to your door. We pack everything carefully so it arrives hot and ready to eat.
Pickup works just as well—place your order online or give us a call, and we'll have it ready when you arrive. No waiting around, no cold chips.
Why Fresh Matters
There's a reason people search for fresh fish in Perth instead of just "fish and chips." Freshness changes everything. The texture, the flavour, the way it feels when you bite into it—none of that survives a long freeze or a lazy prep process.
We've always believed that if you're going to do fish and chips, you do it properly or you don't bother. That means fresh fish, quality oil, and a crew that actually cares about what leaves the kitchen. It's not complicated, but it does take effort.
