Frank's Fryer in Aberdeenshire

Really disappointed. We always looked forward to our chipper the 1st night away in the caravan,and have done for many years. However this time will be our last. Dismally, small portions with a hefty price. The smallest portion of chips I have ever seen with each supper, and the jumbo haddock was half the size it used to be. I always spoke highly of Frank's Fryer but wouldn't suggest it now unfortunately .

£9.50 for a fish supper (plus 30p for a sachet of tartare sauce) is too much when the food tastes as bland as this did. Am glad I bought the sauce as otherwise there would have been no flavour. Worst chippy I've ever had.

Stumbled upon the superb wee chipper next to the transport museum in Alford while out for a drive and delighted to report that the food is excellent! Two delicious fish suppers, chips with just the right amount of crunch, fish that was tasty and succulent and batter that was beautiful and golden. Good sized portions too Just so happened to be passing and so happy to have found this place. And such friendly happy smiling staff. Will be back!

We found this place by complete accident but as SO chuffed we did. We've been back a couple of times since our discovery and have been really pleased with the tastiness of the food and at the pirce too! We ordered 2 kids portions and it was perfect size The only thing that almost caught us out was the pay by cash but we found a cashpoint at the co-op round the corner Queues can be quite long but it's worth the wait

If the owner is cooking food not very good over cook or under cook and cuts the food open in the fryer so it's full of fat

Been a few times because I gave it benefit of the doubt. Each time it was greasy, tasted disgusting, and had an added side of HAIR. Staff are friendly enough apart from one sour faced quine there who always eyeballs the customers, rather rude. I don't think I'll be back in a hurry.

Excellent chippy. It’s always very tasty. I’ve only marked it down one as it can be quite slow to get served, but it’s all cooked to order so does come piping hot and freshly cooked. The chips are very tasty!

We go here often and have never been disappointed. Food it good quality and portion size is good. Curry sauce is the best

To the family to the transport museum,came out and smelled the chip shop in the car park.The fish suppers were great and the service and portion size great

I've used this chip shop on several occasions and it's always been good and yesterday I had a Haddock supper, the batter was a nice golden brown and fish was huge but unfortunately very dry. I was very disappointed.

The food's good, the portions are large, being completely ignored for about fifteen minutes by the staff is completely unacceptable. Twenty-five minutes after I went in I got my food. Fast food it was not. Nor were they busy.When their pals came in, they got to order straight away.The staff need a serious dose of attitude adjustment.

Great wee chippy. Plenty to choose from and open at really concient times for tea. Fish is a stunning size

Our regular fish and chip shop. We have been coming here for many years, after trying many others in the area, including a supposedly award winning one in Aberdeen. Always good size portions, crisp batter and great chips. The staff are always friendly.

I am very surprised at all the 5 star reviews on here we found our suppers very disappointing... greasy, batter was raw inside. Chips did not taste freshly cooked. Quite pricey too. Portions were good but food not good enough to finish. Sorry! But we won't be back.

Great chips, centrally located premises and very helpful staff. Popular with locals - that says it all!!

I've lived in Alford for 29 years and Frank's has always been here and delivers better fish and chips than anyone around including Aberdeen.

Had a great fish supper and King rib supper. Visited Franks on the Saturday nights, good service.although fish supper a bit prices at £7.40.

Esta es la tercera vez que he tenido para llevar y patatas fritas de abadejo Frank Freidora durante el último año o así, y cada vez ha sido muy decepcionado. El abadejo es de un buen tamaño, pero estropeado por ser cocidas, efectuar los peces bastante sólido y seco. Las patatas fritas son demasiado seco horrible dentro y duro fuera. Este chips solía ser excelente, así que no sé lo que es equivocado. Nuestra comida esta noche £20 y apenas comestible. No comprar allí me temo.

Fancied a fish supper and was in the area so popped in past. The portion size was more than acceptable compared to our local chippy. Very tasty and will be returning again. Already recommended to friends and family.

As always great chip suppers,fish suppers go down well but my favourite is white pugging supper. Staff always friendly.

Been to a lot of chippers around Aberdeenshire and this one is hands down the best deep fried establishment there is! Might not be fancy and doesn't have seating or anything but the food is great!

Really pleasantly surprised at how good these fish and chips were, my husband had the gluten free fish supper and I had the regular. Both excellent. Will definitely be back for more!

We ate here at the weekend and it was the best chippy we have had in ages. It's just a shame it's so far away. Then again, it's probably best that it is or my waistline would expand massively.

Como una familia, que pedimos aquí una vez. Mi hijo no comer de su cena y no culpar a él porque tampoco el resto de nosotros.

Probablemente el mejor pescado y patatas fritas. Pescado y patatas fritas almidonadas y no hay que esperar mucho. Volveremos pronto.

I have been to Frank's a couple times. Each time the place has been buzzing, a great atmosphere. Really busy, but loads of friendly locals to mix with and speak to! Chicken fillets and chips really rock! A very friendly, open, LGBTQ society in Alford, and this is really demonstrated in Frank's fryer, I interacted with a very friendly gay couple who offered to pay for my meal, but I insisted I would pay my way. Overall great place, would definitely recommend it to anyone in Alford

We have never had a bad supper here. EVER!! The chips are always done perfectly and everything is made fresh when you order. The fish is tasty too.

Check on the opening hours as they are not normal but it has to be one of the best in the area. The battered haddock was a treat. Looking forward to my next visit.

Great variety, freshly made while you wait. The best food is cooked by Jackie!! Go here for a takeaway at least once a month

Stopped at Franks Fryer at Alford a few weeks ago,ordered a couple fish/chips,well folks ive had a few Fish Suppers in my time,but Franks will take some beating,cooked to perfection, batter was spot on,service was excellent,keep up the good work.And heres wishing you and your staff all the best for 2015. Brian Duguid Inverurie.

Great fish and chips. Very busy so prepare to Que and wait . Everything cooked fresh so worth the wait.
