Reel Catch became our new local fish n chip shop after the one off Gossamer closed just over a year ago. I always recommend to people looking to try a new takeaway shop! Great food and really awesome service, have never been disappointed. Best potato fritters.

So happy to have a local fish and chip shop that has a battered gluten-free fish option for my allergic son. We've brought gluten-free and regular options three times over this summer and the whole family enjoyed their version of f&c every time.

Been coming here for a while now. My kids and my family absolutely love this place. The fish is great, the chips are perfect and the staffs are super friendly. We need more local businesses like this.

Holy taleto, I'm a happy and lucky man to call The Reel Catch my local. Friendly and fast service, incredible tasty/quality food and good pricing. By far the best sea dog of I've ever had.

After reading all the negative feedback about the new owners, I decided to give this place a try. Fortunately, I was more than pleasantly surprised since their fish was in my opinion the best I’ve ever had, even better than the previous owners. The batter was incredibly crisp, not at all greasy, perfectly seasoned, all coating the juicy tender fish perfectly without the fish and batter separating as with some other places. All served with above average fries from a polite and friendly kid hanging out with his brothers and sisters in the family business, I highly recommend others to give the new owners a chance and not be turned off by other less than stellar reviews. :)

We mostly go here for fish and chips. In the beginning when this place was new we often got some free extra's like a few loempia's and the kids even got once a donut. Now this doesn't happen anymore and that's a pity since you are kind of expecting it as it happened every time. Also the portions of chips seem to become a bit smaller then they used to be. Anyway, the food is good and the owners are very kind.

The best fish and chips we've found so far in Auckland. Our first visit they were very busy and had a 45min wait but so worth it. Highly recommend

The Reel Catch is easily my favourite local take out and is the best fish&chips joint around. 

The chips are always cooked to perfection - nice and cripsy but not overly oily (like many other fish&chip branches). The burgers are delicious and always packed with contents and flavor (the Chicken Burger is my favourite!). And the fish, although I don't get often, is always fresh! All of which is still very cheap too.

The Reel Catch is also run by a such a friendly and kind family that it makes for some of the best customer service in all of Auckland (like seriously, I wish more of my customer service experiences were like this place). 

Absolutely love this place

The fish bites and chips option are delicious and a fabulous meal for two (or three). Perfect for children! Try the doughnut Jam. It is yummy. I love the hot chips because they are crispy and they also do Kumara chips. The owners are beautiful people, friendly, kind, and generous.

Great food and service from family owned business. I loved their fish which is fresh and a decent size. The batter was nice and crispy without the oily taste. Also loved their burgers, had the steak and egg burger which is so much better than the burgers from the large fast food chain. Definitely the place to go for the best takeaway in East Auckland.

Very generous portions, very good quality. Chips were under fried first time. Asked for chips to fry longer to be more crispy and they kindly obliged. Now very good and we buy there regularly. We buy crumbled terakihi. Do recommend it.

I highly recommend the steak burger. Very tasty and filling! The fish was juicy, fresh and well cooked and most importantly delicious. Nice fries, welcoming atmosphere, and easy to read menu. Also a good selection of cold beverages.

I live near by this takeaway shop but today it's my first visit to it. I ordered snapper and chips for me and my families. The fish is very delicious, well battered. The battered surface is crunchy, fish inside is soft and fresh. Chip is also crispy outside and meshed and nice inside. I will definitely visit them more, ordering different food like mussels, squid etc next time.

Always struggling to find a good fish and chips. This was Fabulous. Fish was seasoned - bought Tarakihi. Chips could have a little more salt but over all a very affordable both price and portion wise meal. Ill be seeing you again.

Having a good local Fish & Chip shop is an essential for me, and The Reel Catch absolutely deliver. Their food is consistently of a good quality, and they always get the order right - which is especially impressive given how busy they can get. A quality local spot, will be back again often.

First time trying here tonight, we found it via Google after having a craving for dinner tonight. Best decision of the day, this place has fantastic fish and chips, light crunchy batter on the hoki, packs are a great deal to buy. Crab stick, pineapple donut and prawn twisters were all very tasty as well. We have definitely found our new fav F&C store. Highly recommend, thanks guys for a great meal.
