“ Thankyou for the delicious fish burgers no other fish n chip shop beats you. We came from kaiapoi. so glad we went to you had a yummy burger very well presented ”

“ I want to give a huge compliment to a young staff member at Rangiora Fish Bowl, I believe her name was Emma. As someone with a speech impediment and a stutter, ordering food in public can sometimes be a really stressful experience. Emma was incredibly patient and kind while I placed my order, never once making me feel rushed. When someone behind me started making negative comments about the time it was taking, Emma handled the situation with so much professionalism and empathy. She made me feel respected and validated, and I can’t explain how much that meant to me. Customer service like this makes such a difference. Emma went above and beyond, and I truly hope her kindness and patience are recognised. She turned what could have been an upsetting experience into one where I left feeling happy and valued ”

“ Our first visit to the fish bowl.The lady was brisk but efficient. We had battered blue cod and chips. The Blue cod was absolutely delicious!! We will be back, for sure ”

- fiona mcmurdo -

“ Great tasting fish and chips, a bit more expensive, but worth it. Chips are tasty, not dry or overcooked, but portions are very small. So if you are feeding a family of 6 you would want 2+ scoops. I have had the fish and hamburgers and they are also very tasty, typical fish and chip shop flavour. I recommend their crumbed hoki ”

“ Always stop here for some of their yummy chips as we head out of town. Great chips, great service, generous servings ! ”

- E Jo -

“ Good value for money. We will be back. A more friendly manner over the phone would be nice, but not essential. The Chips were great, with the perfect amount of salt. The fish was disappointing. ”

- Wesley Kessack -

“ Gurnard is so good but the batter always could be cooked a bit longer. ”

- Julie Lintott -

“ Tried this place and had the best fish and chips for a long time . Would have give it 5 star but went back a week later on a Friday and the chips weren’t that good old oil. But the pricing is good ”
