Is the fish fresh?

The menu says so fish by fish. Snapper, gurnard and tarakihi are listed as fresh; hoki is listed as frozen at sea. The fresh fish sells out: on 4 November gurnard and tarakihi were marked sold out online and snapper was available, so check the online menu if you want a particular fish.

Does Stingray Matt's do gluten-free fish?

It grills fish as well as battering and crumbing it, and the grilled hoki, snapper, gurnard and tarakihi are marked gluten free on the menu. Fryers in a fish and chip shop are often shared with battered food, so ask when you order if you're coeliac.
