Seafood Restaurant Perth – Fresh Local Catch at Tankk Fish and Chips

If you're after a proper seafood restaurant in Perth that doesn't mess around with frozen imports or fancy names, you've found it. Tankk Fish and Chips serves up fresh, locally-sourced Western Australian seafood at two locations: Winthrop and Melville. Everything's made-to-order, nothing sits under a heat lamp, and we're pretty serious about where our fish comes from.

Owner Paul Slee opened Tankk because Perth deserves better than average fish and chips. We work with local suppliers to bring in the best WA seafood – think King George whiting, snapper, dhufish when we can get it, and prawns that actually taste like the ocean. The kind of stuff you'd be happy to cook at home, if you could be bothered.

What Makes a Good Seafood Restaurant in Perth?

Look, there are plenty of places to get seafood around Perth. But here's what we reckon matters: the fish should be fresh, not frozen. It should come from Western Australian waters when possible. And it should be cooked when you order it, not sitting around waiting for someone to buy it.

At both our Winthrop and Melville stores, we prep everything daily. The batter's made fresh. The oil's changed regularly. The chips are hand-cut. It's not complicated – just proper fish and chips done right. Whether you're picking up after work, grabbing lunch near the river, or ordering delivery to your place in Applecross or Booragoon, you're getting the same quality.

Our Winthrop and Melville Locations

Tankk Winthrop

Our Winthrop spot is perfect if you're down near the river or doing the school pickup run around Winthrop Primary. Close to Read Park and the Winthrop foreshore, it's an easy stop before heading home or down to the water. Plenty of locals swing by on their way back from Point Walter or the dog beach.

Tankk Melville

The Melville location sits in the heart of the suburb, handy for anyone around Melville, Palmyra, or Attadale. Whether you're near Melville Primary, the Melville Glades Golf Course, or just cruising down Canning Highway, we're an easy detour for decent seafood that won't let you down.

What's on the Menu

We keep it simple. Fresh fish – grilled or battered. Local prawns. Calamari. Scallops when they're in season. Everything comes with our hand-cut chips, and you can add salad or extras if you want. We also do a few classics like fish burgers and seafood packs if you're feeding the family.

The fish changes based on what's available and what's good. We're not locked into a menu written six months ago by head office – because there is no head office. If the snapper's looking good, that's what we're cooking. If the whiting's better, we'll tell you.

Order Online or Swing By

Can't be bothered leaving the house? Fair enough. You can order through Uber Eats or Menulog and we'll get it to you while it's still hot. Both our Winthrop and Melville kitchens handle delivery orders, so whether you're in Bicton, Ardross, Myaree, or anywhere nearby, you're covered.

Otherwise, just rock up. We're pretty quick with orders, even when it's busy. And if you're planning a bigger order for a gathering or work thing, give us a call ahead and we'll make sure it's ready when you need it.
