Summary
Famous for its “top-quality”, “astoundingly cheap” fish – this harbourside chippy has been owned since 2003 by Robert Smith, from a local fishing dynasty that stretches back to the 1700s. He set up supply specialist Argofish in nearby St Monans with his wife Alison in 1980.
Summary
“Putting up with the fast-food-joint interior, because of the quality of food” is all part of the experience at this “astoundingly cheap” and “warren-like” fish ‘n’ chippy – as is being prepared to queue (“everybody for miles around knows how good a place this is”).
Summary
“The best fish ’n’ chips in bonny Scotland!” (“and also the best cup of tea around”) plus a “lovely harbour setting” continue to make this “diner”-style venture a “very popular” destination; “it would cost at least double elsewhere!”
Summary
“A great establishment” combining the “freshest fish possible” with “perfect chips” and “amazing (non-greasy) batter”. You can eat in the 1950s-style dining room, but the spoils are arguably “best taken away and enjoyed by the harbour across the road”.
