Erik's Fish and Chips

If there's one thing you should never miss while in New Zealand, it's a plate of piping-hot fish and chips. Erik's Fish and Chips in the heart of Queenstown has captured the hearts of locals and visitors for its no-frills take on this classic Kiwi dish.

As a proud resident of the Southern Lakes region, Erik is dedicated to using locally sourced ingredients. From potatoes harvested in Canterbury to fish delivered daily from Dunedin, their dishes embody the essence of New Zealand. Take your pick from a line-up of fish, including mild yet slightly sweet hoki, or opt for a salty-sweet blue cod—an absolute Kiwi classic. Chicken tenders and lamb hot dogs are also on offer for land-faring folks.

What would fish and chips be without sides? Erik's homemade chips are renowned in Queenstown, and his kumara chips are a local favourite. For the adventurous, we highly recommend trying our world-famous deep-fried kiwifruit.

Erik's Fish and Chips offer casual, unreserved, onsite seating, but for something a bit more unique, why not order your fish and chips to takeaway, walk 50 metres around the corner to Queenstown lakefront and enjoy them whilst looking out over Lake Whakatipu and soaking up the Queenstown vibe.

With a gluten-free and halal-certified kitchen, Erik's Fish and Chips cater to various dietary needs and ensure a welcoming environment. Timeless, traditional, and exceptionally tasty, it embraces what it means to be a Kiwi.
