Ocean Basket Menu With Updated Prices in South Africa 2026
Prices last checked: October 2026. Prices are taken from the official Ocean Basket South Africa online menu. Ocean Basket prices can differ slightly from one restaurant to the next, and delivery apps usually charge more than ordering in store, so always confirm the price at your specific branch before you order. One more thing to watch for with fish dishes: Ocean Basket notes that all fish may contain bones.
Ocean Basket is South Africa’s homegrown seafood restaurant. The first Ocean Basket opened in Pretoria in 1995, and the brand has grown into one of the country’s best-known seafood chains, famous for its Mediterranean-style fish and chips, generous sharing platters, and a sushi menu that sits right alongside the grilled fish. Today Ocean Basket trades from restaurants across South Africa and in other countries too.
The Ocean Basket menu is built around the sea. You can keep it simple with the famous fish and chips, go bigger with prawns, calamari and mussels, share a platter with the whole table, or switch lanes entirely with sushi, small plates and sweet treats. On this page you will find the full Ocean Basket menu with updated prices in South Africa for 2026.

Is Ocean Basket Halal?
Ocean Basket’s fish, prawn and calamari dishes contain no pork, but Ocean Basket restaurants are not halaal-certified, and they serve alcohol. That means the menu cannot be described as halaal, even though the seafood itself is naturally pork-free.
If halaal status matters to you, check with the specific branch you plan to visit before ordering — certification and preparation practices can differ from one restaurant to the next, and confirming at your exact branch is the only way to be completely sure.
