Correction (3 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 3 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.
Five takeaway places, all with a Mount Waverley 3149 address. Chicken, banh mi, a deli, fish and chips. Sit-down restaurants are left out.
Every entry comes with a line on price, a line on what the dish is, and one move. Two of the price lists are DoorDash platform prices, not the shop’s own menu, and we say which.
Everything is copied from pages and listings. We have not reported on how any of it tastes. Keen for a feed on a budget? Start with the table.

Smoky Hen Wood Fired Chicken — 311 Stephensons Road, Mount Waverley VIC 3149
Smoky Hen’s own site pitches “a quick takeaway chicken near you” and “a family feast”. The menu page is titled “Lunch special”, so the prices below may be lunch-only.

The Crunch fried chicken box (2 wings + chips) is $14.90. The Beef bulgogi rice bowl is $16.90. The site also lists a roast chicken box: 1/4 wood fired roast chicken, chips, 4 tortilla and sauce.
Its own site lists Mon -Thu 11:30-21:30 (Sun: 20:30), Fri,Sat : 11:30- 22:00 and a “Break time :4pm-5pm everyday”. Another part of the same page gives different hours, so check before you go.

Mount Waverley Charcoal Chicken (The Chicken Expert) — 23 Hamilton Place, Mount Waverley VIC 3149
The DoorDash page describes the shop as the place “where you will go to get DoorDash Pickup orders”, and tags it “Greek” and “Fast Food”. We found no website of its own and recorded no opening hours, so check with the shop.
These are DoorDash platform prices. Charcoal Chicken - quarter is $9.90, Charcoal Chicken - half is $15.50 and Charcoal Chicken - whole is $27.90. The menu describes each as “Chicken cooked on charcoal”. Wraps are $14.50: the Chicken Strip Wrap has two hot chicken strips, lettuce, tomato, onion and a choice of sauce.
On the menu (copied from doordash.com on 3 October 2026):
- Charcoal Chicken - quarter: $9.90

- Charcoal Chicken - whole: $27.90
- Chicken Strip Wrap: $14.50
What it is: charcoal chicken sold by the quarter, half or whole, so the price scales with the size you pick.
Deli’sh @ Hamilton — 17 Hamilton Place, Mount Waverley VIC 3149
This is a deli more than a counter-service chain. Its own link page says it makes “freshly made sandwiches, toasties to award-winning pies and pastries, all with that delicious homemade taste”. The award wording is the venue’s own claim.
The own page lists operating hours of Monday to Friday 8am-5pm and Saturday 8am-3pm, and says it is not open on Sundays at this stage. A Melbourne Localista listing says “Facilities: Home Delivery, Takeaway”. We found no priced menu on its own pages, so there is no price here.
The move: go on a weekday or Saturday, because the page lists no Sunday trading.
Coco’s Banh Mi Bar — Unit 1, 12 Hamilton Place, Mount Waverley VIC 3149
Coco’s has no website of its own that we found. Its DoorDash page lists “Delivery Pickup Group Order” and describes its banh mi as a Vietnamese baguette filled with buttery mayo, pate, pickle carrots, daikon, cucumber, spring onion, coriander and sauce.
These are DoorDash platform prices. BBQ Chicken Banh Mi is A$12.65 and Crispy Roast Pork Banh Mi is A$13.80. Beef Pho is A$20.70 and Com Tam (Saigonese Broken Rice) is A$18.40.
On the menu (copied from doordash.com on 3 October 2026):
- BBQ Chicken Banh Mi: A$12.65
- Crispy Roast Pork Banh Mi: A$13.80
- Beef Pho: A$20.70
- Com Tam (Saigonese Broken Rice): A$18.40
What it is: banh mi is a Vietnamese baguette roll; pho is a noodle soup; the menu’s Com Tam is Saigonese broken rice.
Sea Blue Fish & Grill — 305 Stephensons Road, Mount Waverley VIC 3149
Sea Blue’s own online ordering page reads “Online Menu * Takeaway & Delivery * Secure Online Payments”. Prices below come from that page.
Plain Hamburger is $9.15: beef patty, lettuce and tomato sauce. The Fish ‘N’ Chip Pack (1 flake + chips) is $12.70. Flake (local gummy) is $9.95 on its own and Medium Chips are $10.15. A Potato Cake is $1.70. The menu also lists a Chicken Souvlaki at $15.25 with lettuce, tomato, onion and tzatziki sauce.
