Docks Seafood Grill - Ashburton

Worth visiting the South Island for. Fresh seafood cooked to perfection. Batter wafer thin and pure crispiness without being at all oily. Great selection of different fish. Very knowledgeable owners. And a very good price!

The food was awesome. The staff very welcoming helpful. One place you must visit in Ashburton.

We really enjoyed our meal at Docks Bar Seafood Grill. The staff were kind, friendly and helpful and engaged well with us and our two little children. The server brought the children some activity packs to do while they were waiting for the meal. The fish was delicious and fresh and the chips were yummy. Our son had the children's meal, which he enjoyed and he even ate the fish and liked it. We definitely recommend Docks Bar Seafood Grill, and hope to go there again in the future. Thank you!

The nicest seafood I have had in ages. The blue cod was melt in your mouth. The batter was translucent and so crispy. The prawns were so plump and moist and utterly delicious. Lovely friendly staff and a nice setting. Couldn't believe there weren't more people. A must visit place in Ashburton.

The best fish chips I have ever had in my entire life. Better than any in Sydney, Melbourne, Auckland, Raglan, Tauranga, Coromandel, Manawatu, and Wellington (I eat a lot of fish and chips). The Gurnard melted in my mouth like butter with the most gorgeous flavour and an absolutely perfected batter, you could truly taste that it has come from fresh, cared for, quality ingredients. I will be driving here from Christchurch anytime I ever feel like fish and chips again. 10/10 Food, service and atmosphere!
