The Chip Shop
Ask anyone west of the railway line where to get fish and chips and you'll get one word. Kippers has been the strip's paper-parcel institution for years... fresh, hot, honest, and busy enough on a Friday that phoning ahead is the local move.
Burgers & Late
The only kitchen on the WestSide strip still firing at 10pm every single night. Drive-through or walk up. Criss-cross fries doing criss-cross fries things.
The Roast
The no-cooking Sunday hero, serving till 9pm. Roast lamb, roast pork, roast chicken... with gravy, veges and a bread roll that soaks it all up. Open Sunday sorted.
Half of Asia, To Go
Full menus are coming to every listing... watch this space.

Beyond the Strip
The WestSide isn't the only game in Hastings. Fish Town at 611 Heretaunga runs the east-side chip counter. Ho Wha at 1102 Heretaunga West is a Hastings legend — famously frying till 2am, well past anything on the strip. Racecourse Takeaways holds down the Stortford Lodge end. And Midway on Karamu Road has been the east-side anchor for longer than most of us have been ordering. The parcel map is bigger than one precinct... but this guide covers the WestSide, and the WestSide is where we live.
