Best seafood dining and takeaways in Logan
Seafood, glorious seafood! Whether it’s a romantic dinner, a picnic in the park with family or a weekend celebration, there are plenty of reasons to indulge in the tasty sensations from the ocean.
From traditional fish and chips to fresh oysters, and crustaceans served from tank to table, the City of Logan has a fabulous selection of restaurants, takeaways and markets where you can enjoy the finest catch of the day in a range of recipes and styles, from fresh to cooked to perfection.
The quality of oysters is formidable at Fishboi in Springwood Mall, which is known for its oyster tank where live oysters are shucked per order. You can gobble these up in multiple ways: raw or drizzled with decadent Swiss cheese, creamy spinach or with bacon and Worcestershire sauce. Other options on its vast menu include the usual fish and chip shop favourites, along with various platters that come crumbed, charcoal grilled or chilled. And if you dare to be different, there is also a fish parma!
This beloved Loganholme institution has been a longtime favourite among locals for a reason: a no-frills setup with plenty of seating, good ol’ fashioned hospitality and what some say are the best fish and chips in town. The menu is chock-full of fan favourites, from perfectly fried cod, snapper, red trout emperor and potato scallops to hearty burgers – all available to eat in or takeaway.
