Local tip
The sit-down and take-away options make Fishtales suitable for either a meal at The Village Centre or food to enjoy elsewhere in St. Francis Bay.

Fishtales St. Francis Bay is a fish-focused restaurant and take-away at Shop 5, The Village Centre on St Francis Drive. The venue combines sit-down dining with collection, making it suitable for a relaxed meal or a convenient home-style replacement. Its menu centres on fresh fish meals, with fish and chips forming part of a wider selection of complementary choices.

Meals are prepared to order rather than pre-cooked. This approach keeps the focus on freshness and allows the kitchen to prepare each order as it comes in. The menu is intended to appeal to a broad range of diners, including families, children, professionals, passing trade and people looking for familiar fish and chips.

The style is casual and straightforward, with the food and practical service at the centre of the experience. Fishtales is suited to diners who appreciate generous portions, freshly prepared meals and a choice between eating in and taking food away. The setting at The Village Centre gives the venue an accessible St. Francis Bay location for local residents and visitors exploring the Eastern Cape coastal town.

Fishtales also caters for different types of visits. A solo diner can choose a made-to-order fish meal, while families and other groups can use the sit-down option for a shared meal. Take-away orders provide an alternative for those heading home or continuing their day around St. Francis Bay. The menu's combination of fish meals and accompanying products gives diners more choice than a single fish and chips option.

Fishtales St. Francis Bay trades from Monday to Sunday.
