About City Fish Bar

City Fish Bar, Canterbury's chippy for over 40 years.

Anyone can open a fish and chip shop. Staying open for more than 40 years takes something else.

At City Fish Bar, we've served Canterbury through four decades of change, and the one thing that hasn't moved is how we do it. Proper fish. Chips cooked to order. Hot, generous and wrapped up the way you remember. No shortcuts, no gimmicks, no trend chasing.

We've fed the kid who came in after school and now brings their own kids. We've fed the students, the tradies, the late shift crowd and the families who've made us their Friday night tradition. When you've been part of a community this long, you don't take it for granted. You earn it every single day you open the doors.

Other shops come and go. We're still here, and still owned and run by Pete, who's on the spot and cares what lands in your hands.

Come in once and you'll understand why people don't switch.

City Fish Bar. Trusted by Canterbury for over 40 years. Come and taste why.
