Hunky Dory Fish & Chips Ringwood

This is the second I have been to Hunky Dory at Eastlands, I have had the grilled seafood and salad, and can honestly say the grilled fish, calamari and prawns were absolutely fantastic! And very well priced for the amount of food you get. So many healthy options on the menu, which feels rare when visiting a resturant.

The food here is exceptional. The grilled seafood & salad is so good! So good to have healthy options on the menu too. Great value for money.

Was very impressed with the quality and range of food. Service was pretty good too. Will definitely be going back.

One of the best places to eat in the Eastland food precinct. Staff are always incredibly friendly and helpful going above and beyond and the food is always quality. There's no wonder this place is always humming. Incredibly well run business.

For fish and chips that satisfy, Hunky Dory is fantastic. Their chips are crisp and fluffy without being oily. Wonderful aromatic flake. Their potato cakes are exceptional, too. This gear certainly hits the spot. Friendly management and a nice outdoor dining area are a great touch.

A lunch venue that puts all their soul into everything they provide. Blown away! Around the table, no one walked away with anything bad to say. So, let’s break it down…

Atmosphere: ****
With the new outside hard-top extension and the amazing layout inside, its hard not to feel comfortable wherever you sit. While the seats are a little hard (and can be uncomfortable for some) and the tables a little awkward to negotiate at times – it still has a way to make you feel social, welcomed, and comfortable to be there. Well Done!

Customer Service: *****
We had a large group, and they don’t book for large groups, which is fair considering it was a brilliant weather day and there were 10 of us. It was busy, and when we stated our numbers, it was the determination of not only the representatives, but the manager who (called to arms) accommodated our party, brilliantly.
The table was set with fresh water & drinking glasses, menus and buckets of cutlery and napkins.
Ordering is at the register (which I don’t mind) – So on order, it took 8 minutes (in peak lunchtime rush) for the dish to come out. That is amazing in itself!
It was a tribute to this establishment that all representatives (even the hand off to the manager as a party) was all with smiles and without any drama at all. Really well done!

Food (why we are here) : *****
Too many dishes to quote on all, so my order was “The Deep Blue” with Greek salad, upgrade to Flake and add 2 Calamari rings.
And you get SO much for your money! I couldn’t finish it!
Salad: Nice Greek salad with crumbed fetta, was a little lacking in tomato (understandable considering floods, inflation, etc) but was amazingly fresh, tasty and deliciously light on the dressing to allow for all the full Mediterranean flavours to mix.
Flake: The batter was a little large and puffy, but it was so light an fluffy that you just enjoyed the crisp texture while the flake flavour took it over.
Calamari Rings: As with the fish, my calamari was not chewy or tough in the slightest
Chips: Standard local fish and chips style chips; however, why they are deep fried, they don’t over cook them.
TIP: ask for it lightly salted for best palette

Overall: It’s hard to pass up a good Fish and Chip lunch and if you are looking for one – this is closest thing (if not better) to your local. I have been here a few times and I have never walked away felling regretful of what I have paid for the excellent food & service I been provided. Well Done H. D!

Was served by who I assumed was the owner, really friendly and welcoming, recently moved to the area and been looking for a good fish and chip shop, slightly more expensive then other places the but the quality is exponentially better and well worth it

Food was fresh and had a fantastic flavour to it. Service was friendly and quick.
The chargrilled calamari, cheeseburgers, fish bites, honkey bowls are all quite good. Great place if you are after some seafood.

Well cooked fish and chips. The flake was very good and the chips were nice and crunchy. Friendly staff too.

Big serves of fresh fish and chips at reasonable prices.

Edit: 2022 really like the updated menu with a decent selection of vegetables / salad inclusions. Less of deep fried everything and good wholesome meals.

Nicest people ever love coming here would be friends was 2.50 short and the guy said don’t worry about it so I give 5 stars for this

Randomly had dinner here the other week and wow!
I've been to Bay St a few times but I felt a totally different vibe here.
The food was really crisp, fresh and customer service won me over completely.
Not just a fish and chip shop, but the quality was beyond what I've experienced across Hunky Dory.
If you're in the East or South East - head over, dine in, and order a side of coleslaw too!

Order was ready on time, staff were quick, helpful and friendly and the food was outstandingingly good

Really nice friendly service, waiters behaved like they owned the joint (maybe they did?), great tasting local catches, we had The Old School for lunch (pictured). Nice atmosphere, will go again hence the 5 stars

Fried or grilled fresh fish or a range of speciality salads and burgers are available catering to fish or meat eaters or vegetarians. Cannot be faulted.

Great service, delicious food
It was really busy on Friday night when I went, but they were still so quick, professional and kind. Their customer service is amazing

Fantastic fish and chips place. Large portion and tasty salad and fishes. Highly recommended. I def come back. Keep up the good work guys.

Fish was fresh and the pieces we received were generous pieces of fish. The chips were really good too. The service was fantastic. We had a male waiter who was extremely attentive and went out of his way to be kind to our kids.
Great experience all round!

Best seafood I’ve had in ages!
The host and all the staff were also wonderful.
Great experience all round.

High end fish&chips, flake was fantastic, seafood skewer was tasty, and thumbs up on the sweet potato wedges. Thanks
