About This Spot
Nestled along Hout Bayโs rugged coastline, Fish On The Rocks welcomes you with a salty breeze and the rhythmic splash of waves against the rocks below. Mark Wiens steps onto the weatherโworn deck, his eyes widening at the bustling scene where locals and tourists mingle over steaming platters of fresh fish. The air is thick with the scent of sea salt and freshly fried batter, while the chatter of excited diners adds a lively soundtrack to the picturesque view.
What truly sets this spot apart is its menu of locally sourced delicacies: the buttery Snoek & Chips that melt in your mouth, the light yet flavorful Hake & Chips that showcase Capeโs pristine waters, and the fiery PeriโPeri Prawns that ignite the palate with a perfect balance of heat and citrus. Each bite delivers an authentic taste of South Africaโs marine bounty, paired with generous portions and a casual, friendly service that makes every visit feel like a celebration of the sea.
