Simply better than ever......
This place keeps getting better! We know our fish and chips and these are among the best we've tried - EVER. We had the battered haddock (simply divine) and the smoked haddock (lightly smoked juicy flakes of fresh haddock, mmmmm)with loads of chunky crispy chips. This restaurant is spotless and the assistants friendly and efficient. Will definitely make the 300 mile round trip to visit again! [07 Mar 2006 13:07:53]

Not worth the journey!
We made a 30+ mile journey to visit this place. I'd rather go to my local chippy to be honest, the fish is much fresher and tastes better! The drawback was the long queue and the time it took the assistanst to serve people. We waited more than an hour with less then 20 people in front of us. Once we got "the best fish and chips in Scotland" (apparently) the batter was extremely greasy and the fish was literally non existant! No definately not worth the trip. The Waterfront restaurant just along the road is a much better bet. Their fish is delicious, the portions are larger and the staff very friendly. We actually went here when we "binned" the Anstruther Fish Bar food! [08 Apr 2007 13:37:32]

What a fab place!
Fish and chips were out of this world and although we had to wait a long time the service was superb. Highly recommend this place to anyone! [10 Sep 2007 12:16:46]

WORTH THE TRIP
FLYING FROM THE US IS NO EASY TRIP,NOT EVEN FOR A SCOTSMAN(GLASGOW).COMING HERE IS TRUELY WORTH IT. THIS IS WITHOUT A DOUBT THE BEST OF THE BEST. I HAVE BEEN HERE EVERY TRIP AND I'M ANTICIPATING IT AGAIN THIS SEPTEMBER. IF THEY COULD MOVE THIS TO THE US THEY WOULD MAKE A FORTUNE. LET ME KNOW IF THEY DO,I'LL BE THEIR FIRST CUSTOMER.

Well Worth The Visit.
Our friends took us (my wife and I) for a drive down the coast for the day and suggested fish and chips at "the best place in Scotland". (We are Aussies). We weren't disapointed with the meal. Fantastic!!!! I have just recommended your business on talkback radio in Melbourne. Well Done. Hope to get back in the next couple of years. [17 Apr 2008 01:40:55]

Quality speaks for itself!
Generous portions, lovely light crispy batter on the fish, very tasty lightly fried chips.
There are several contenders for the best chippy in the UK on Scotland's east coast, and this one is definitely up there. [05 Oct 2008 15:31:09]
