Hunky Dory - Melbourne

Always my go to favourite. Consistently great quality always generous servings. Grilled fish, Greek salad and brown rice always spot on. Unfortunately they ran out of lamb skewers today. But that is also very tasty. Plenary of seating and well spaced out. Heaters outdoors always on!

Always a favourite for a quick lunch. Generous sized portions and the salad and fish are always fresh. Can't fault it

My first Hunky Dory experience and I was looking for a little bit of everything on a plate. I do prefer fried to grilled but I felt that I've had enough grease for the week and went for the grilled version of their seafood and salad pack.<br/ <br/ Under a huge bed of Greek salad was a fish fillet, strips of soft calamari and a couple of grilled prawns. I loved the heavy seasoning on the prawns and wished that there was more of it on the other seafood. Wedge of lemon to dress up the seafood but regrettably, I wish I got their fried variation. Perhaps next time. My friends also got some of their golden chips, not bad. Hot and crisp, I had to season the chips with sea salt myself as they came unseasoned.<br/ <br/ I leaned towards healthy that day but you know what, go for what you're craving, that way you don't have any food regrets.

As someone who doesn’t eat seafood… I don’t have the most fun when dining at Hunky Dory! It definitely has the biggest serve of chips I’ve ever seen, which is surely a good thing in itself. There’s Hunky Dorys all across Australia. It’s a popular fish and chip chain and perhaps one of the only fish and chip chains here. They had some controversy back in the day. At least one of the stores was shipping in frozen fish, but still remains a firm favourite of the masses, judging by the crowd. Not a lot survives this end of Chapel Street and it’s been for a good while now.
