Maddigans is a seafood market and restaurant on the Esplanade in Hervey Bay that displays fresh catches and prepares meals daily. The shop sells raw seafood to take home as well as dishes ready to eat at nearby seating.
The shop was founded decades ago and has been run by the same owner since the early 2000s. It has become a well-rooted part of Hervey Bay's waterfront area.
The place reflects how locals value their coastal resources and transform them into shared meals and community gathering moments.
The place sits right on the waterfront promenade and is easy to reach on foot. You can buy raw seafood to cook at home or eat prepared dishes right there.
Fishing boats deliver their catches directly to the shop, ensuring that seafood always comes from local waters around Queensland. This close link with fishermen makes it possible to offer especially fresh products.
