Very disappoined on our visit todayExpected a similar experience we had at On the Rocks in Hout Bay but very far from itVery small little shopStaff are even more unfriendly and has no customer skillsDidnt make any of the customers feel welcome or specialThe calamari was OK but the portions was small for R65. We will definitely not go there again

On The Rocks at Paternoster is a local gem wrt their fish and chips take aways freshley prepared. Worth every cent they chargr compared to inland options in Gauteng ☺

Such a gem where one can appreciate nature around you. On the edge of the beach - keeping life simple. We would definitely recommend On The Rocks if you are looking for good fresh sea food at a great priceThe choice was very limited, to fish & chips & fish cakes on the day we were there - your food is freshly prepared and served in the good old fashioned way!

The hake and chips parcel is sooo big, that it can be shared between 2/3 people and its tasty and fresh. A real deal for sure

Perfect for a beach outing. Eat your oily fish and chips at the wooden tables, meters away from a stunning beach. No pretense here. Mingle with the locals as you eat your meal off paper. Also offers cold drinks. Follow up with a stroll on the beach, often with very few people, especially in late winter and early spring, before the crowds arrive for the holidays. Watch the locals come in with their small boats, heavy from the days catch.

Visited on a Monday when most restaurants are closedThis Take away or Eat in under the Lapa was OK to satisfy the hunger after a long drive. The Hake and chips was OK 🙄 2 baby hake fillets (soggy batter) because they piled the chips on top (definitely not freshly fried but probably leftover from the previous day and dunked into the oil again.

The service was TERRIBLE! staff wanders around aimlessly and cant be bothered to even attempt to do an adequate job. We ordered,,waited an hour, got no food and had to cancel for a refund. The entire staff should be fired and this venue should be restarted with staff who value their jobs, take pride in their work and value customers above all.

Dec 2020, the fish and chips was only R55 but more than that, it was fresh, batter was crisp, chips were chunky and both were done with no hint of of old oil. Other items on the menu was burgers, Russians and sausages.Cant go wrong here with friendly staff and freshest food

Must be the most popular fish and chips joint in Paternoster for good reason. The price is so affordable and fish and chips really tasty and fresh. None of us were able to finish our meal just because it was such big portion.

On The Rocks in Paternoster is an absolute gem and winner! Friendly staff, the best fish in batter and crispy chips, all wrapped up in the good old traditional way in paper. And it was piping hot and the most incredible value for money. Dont miss this meal and please dont forget to ask to leave a tip for the staff, this container is under the counter and they (the staff) will be very grateful.

Loved the fish and chips, been there a few times, however today, 20 June, the fish had no taste, the dough very thick, raw and oily, hubby and myself spent a few hours in the bathroom, afterwards, not a nice experience today.

Friendly staff and delicious fish and chips. This is. Take away, not a restaurant though you can eat on the tables outside. Original style wrapped in paper. Salt and vinegar are separate, add it yourself. The hake is chunky and the chips are slap(soft).Its the way fish and chips were supposed to be made and eaten. Fish and Chips are LESS than half the price of the other restaurants. No need to be ripped off elsewhere.

Absolutely the freshest fish you can eat. Always good food, never disappoints. Just pay for your order, take your number and wait at one of the tables, and the food will come. Perfect fish with perfectly typical slap chips. Right near the ocean with room for kids to play.

A must visit. Hake, snoek or calamari is served with chips in paper which is enjoyed at wooden tables. Although the fish and chips are a bit oily, On the Rocks offers good value for money.

The fish and chips was extremely oily and wet. There was no salt and vinegar on the chips or the fish. Staff should learn some customer service.
