The Catch Wanaka

The Catch is a fast n cheap fish n chip joint. A no frills, pay for extra sauce kind of place. I swapped $13 NZD for a bit of fish, fries and tarter sauce, had it in hand in under five minutes, then tossed some chicken salt on the fries, walked 30 meters to the beach, and ate it all to the greedy envy of a large assortment of beach birds. No need to get into details here, the fish and fries were piping hot, crispy and tasty. This is not award winning fare but also doesn't pretend to be. Temper your expectations and you'll enjoy it even more. I'd go tease the birds a second time.

10/10 - highly recommend. The staff here are so lovely and they LOVE their customers! We visited to get some fish and chips while in Wanaka and the staff were so friendly. Food was absolutely delicious. Had the Blue cod and medium chips.🤩🤩🤩

I was lucky enough to have the blue cod burger today. 10/10! The fish was delightfully fresh, super light and full of flavour. Salads were perfect and the bun was lovely too! Definitely give this one a go!

The fish&chips here are delicious! The beef burger is OK. In the evening you can sit outside at the tables on the terrace. It does not look posh here, but the food is very good.

Fish and chips were okay. Servings were good. The only problem we had was the chicken tenders were quite burnt and tasted bitter like the oil used hasnt been changed for years. Only a few tables. Best to eat it by the lake

Looked really appetising and i really wanted to enjoy this because staff was really friendly but unfortunately my fish was not cooked properly as I bit into raw batter. The calamari rings were a solid 5/5, chips were 3/5 portion was good, blue cod was 1/5: bones and uncooked batter and it was still a bit cold in the middle (idk like didnt taste hot like the rest of it), crab stick (not pictured) was burnt (2/5) . Again, I really wanted to enjoy this place because the staff was so nice but it did make my partner and i’s stomach unwell for the rest of the day

Soo nice! We had whiting 2 different nights with chips and coleslaw. 10/10 the nicest fish cooked to perfection. Batter is amazing.Thankyou ⭐️

Came here on Christmas Eve as it was one of two places that was only open in Wanaka. The line was long, but once we ordered, it only took about 15 minutes. We were lucky to get a table outside. It all tasted delicious! The gurnard was perfect.
