Still Hunky
A family of fishermen since 1927
At Hunky Dory, family is at the heart of everything we do.
Our man behind the Hunky magic, Greg, was raised on the water, standing proudly beside his Greek Dad & Grandfather on their commercial fishing boat. When school holidays rolled around, you could find Greg behind the counter at his family’s fish & chip shop. As a seafoodlover, Greg’s Dad was well known as one of the friendly faces at the Melbourne Fish Market for years. When Hunky Dory opened its doors in 2004, Greg’s family were by his side. They have all proudly worn a Hunkys t-shirt along the way; Greg’s Grandfather was still rocking one in-store until he was 91!
We are blessed to see our Hunky family grow over the years & are so grateful for our beautiful family in-store who spread the Hunky Love every day.
Our mission at Hunky Dory has always been the same – to shake up the Fish & Chip game & give it a healthy spin. Whether you’re craving a succulent piece of grilled salmon or a crispy potato cake, at Hunkys everyone has a seat at the table, to be as healthy (or as naughty) as you like.
Traditionally fish and chips have been a take away food, but HD wanted to create a comfortable and casual setting where customers could dine in and enjoy a glass of wine or a beer with their food.
They take pride in preparing and cooking fresh, tasty and healthy meals made to order. Their mouth-watering seafood is delicious and tasty incorporating unique marinades and sauces that will keep customers coming back. Their menu provides many healthy options such as simply grilled fish and wholesome salads to create a perfectly balanced meal.
Celebrate National Fish & Chip Day with the hunky fishermen dishing fish tacos for one day only
In celebration of National Fish and Chip Day, Hunky Dory Fish and Chips created fish tacos for one day only.
Australia’s family of fishers brought the nostalgia of childhood fish and chip Friday back on June 3 – and true to form, they put a healthy spin on the offering. The team created a trio of hot and crispy panko crumbed fish tacos with cabbage, aioli and a little drizzle of HD spicy sauce that went down a treat as the weather got a little frosty.
For the Hunky Dory family, the day is
Dory!
about more than just a perfectly fried fare. Founder Greg Robotis says he was “was raised on the water”, standing proudly beside his Greek dad and grandfather when Hunky Dory first opened its doors back in 2004. Grateful for the support over the last 17 years, Greg says the day is about creating something fun for customers and family. “[The fish taco] is like a party in your mouth, I was hooked after the first bite and couldn’t wait for our customers to try them,” he says.
