George Street Fish & Chip shop in Argyll & Bute

Best fish and chips i have ever had. Fishing village of Oban. Nice train ride from Glasgow

The freshest tastiest fish and friendly service.

My wife and I were looking for a lighter meal than the typical deep fried fish and chips. We chose the Trio of Smoked Salmon as a starter whish was very yummy. For mains my wife chose the Spicy Fish Soup as a main and I had one of the specials Grilled Plaice. The Plaice is a light and mild white fish and gave us some room left to try their grandmother's world famous Sticky Toffee Pudding. While they didn't have my favorite Skye Black beer, they did have a couple of tasty Scottish ales that were quite good. Sit upstairs if you want a quiet dinner date or sit downstairs by the window and watch the world go by. Many thanks to our server/manager/owner(?).

We know Oban well and tried this chippy for a change. We were not disappointed atall, lovely food, great service and very friendly. I had chips n curry sauce, the sauce a little runnier than I prefer but very tasty. My wife had a chip butty, and enjoyed it. Great value for money and piping hot. My wife was waiting outside with our pup, but the guy waved her in too, and gave a battered sausage to our dog. Which he very much enjoyed and fully endorses. We will return here again, thank you.

Went for the langoustines last Friday but sadly the boat hadn't arrived with their catch. Wasn't disappointed though, ended up having their traditional fish and chips and a homemade tartar sauce that I could've eaten on its own. Washed down with a lovely pinot. Thoroughly enjoyed my lunch there. The staff (mother and daughter I suspect) were really lovely and attentive.

Could smell the chippy a mile off and we were like yes.... that's what we fancy.... then decided we'd sit in .... the menu wasn't quite what I thought I fancied in the restaurant, not your yer bog standard chippy cafe lol, however, the other half still got his fish and chips and to my surprise I was more than delighted with my choices of grilled queenie scallops, and a goats cheese starter.... amazing, service really friendly and helpful too.

The salmon fillet was good with a few too many fried potatoes to definitely try the desserts and pudding. I also say the others are excellent

Beautiful fish and chips, loved it.

Excellent !! Very fast service. The dishes arrived very hot. It was sooo good, a special mention for the tartar sauce 😋. The desserts were excellent, between the sticky toffee pudding and the pie bandiez (the cream on top was too delicious 😜). The waitress, Olga, was very friendly and was very pleasant and available throughout the meal. To recommend without any hesitation.

Takeaway’s:- Fish batter was slightly raw leaving a pasty taste on the fish. The fish cakes were simply awful.

I wanted to sample the “Seaford Capital of Scotland” fish and chips so went into this restaurant. They had a fish supper on the menu, which included tea and sliced bread. Their take away shop did red, black and white puddings. I entered thinking of the UK’s best F&C bar in Anstruther. I was told the bread was whole meal, that they didn’t serve any puddings and if I didn’t have chips then the meal would be small. I asked if they could give me something other than chips to make up the difference and we agreed on extra salad. The plate arrived, the salad was Rocket and the amount was the same as the people on the table next to us who had a portion of chips. We left the restaurant and there were still puddings in their takeaway shop. The fish was tasteless, the batter soft, the mushy peas runny and Rocket leaves past there sell by date.

Stepped in after returning from Mull. Convenient to the ferry terminal. Great food and service. Sticky Toffee pudding was great! Glad we stopped.

One of the best fish restaurants in Scotland I really recommend the grilled fish and be careful if your a Muslim because everything except the grilled fish has beef fat so the oil is not halal but the grilled fish is halal and I really recommend it if you like seafood

Cracking fish and chips nice friendly staff as well.

Small little eatery with wonderful food, drinks, and service. Short walk from our B&B. Really enjoyed the Fish & Chips. If we return to Oban on holiday again, we will definitely stop by for food and drinks.

Very very nice experience in Oban! The starter: the salmon trio, a real delight for the taste buds! The dishes: as hearty as they are delicious! Nothing to complain about the quality of the products! We will come back!

Great little seafood place just off the main street in Oban. Stopped in for fish and chips as well as a Shrimp and Langiustine cocktail. Service was great as was the food. The mushy peas stole the show. Lots of choices in Oban but this has a great atmosphere. Worth the stop for sure.

Great customer service, attentive staff. Big portion fish and chips

My wife and I were in the restaurant for lunch on Saturday the 14th of September, we use the restaurant every time we visit Oban excellent food. My wife had a medical situation a ongoing issue during lunch, which resulted in us having to attend hospital. the staff all were so helpfull and supportive contacting emergency services and assisting us during a tence situation. We will be forever grateful. The manageress would no accept any payment for meals we had started Amazing. Not just a great restaurant, lovely atmosphere and lovely staff. We will be back to visit them soon. All the best from Jim &Irene Stewart.

Very good food and service, Megan was excellent!

Haddock beautiful and batter delicious with just enough coating.Chips not so, as luke warm and not crisp, seemed as though been standing a long time.Mushy peas good not too salty but again luke warm.Brewed tea very good.Good pleasant service but taken aback when paying on card to be asked to add quite a large tip which I declined as I had cash to offer. Desserts looked delicious

Dissapointing . Bit off a soggy mess. Had a better and cheaper fish supper in glasgow. 18.95 for a double fish supper. 55p for ketchup. Tourist trap. The one up the road nories is better

Amazing Bass with chips 10/10…staff are amazing with great service

Had a perfect meal in this wonderful restaurant. The service was first rate, the fish was outstanding, plenty of chips too. So lucky to have found and eaten here. Highly recommend to those wanting outstanding food, quick service and not a chain brand restaurant. Thank you 🙂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Delicious food and excellent service

A place with very good fish and chips. It is very close to the promenade so it is easy to get to and take it with good views.

An excellent experience!! The only place which made an exception and allowed us to take our small dog in. The cod and chips were exceptional- really firm flakes of fish and crispy chips! Excellent. I had the fish cakes which were lovely. Would definitely return. Thank you.

We ordered a veggie Burger and all we got was the petty without the bread. The chicken burger didn't have any lettuce or tomatoes as well and they also charged us too much on the pizza. (We ordered a whole for £4 but they didnt understand correctly and gave us only half for £3. When we told them they gave us the other half but charged us £3 again.)

Could not have chosen a better place for our Diamond Wedding Anniversary meal. Superb food, great atmosphere and the most attentive, warm and welcoming staff imaginable. Most enjoyable restaurant meal we have ever had.

This fish n chips shop , is the best , by far , in Oban. Quality, portion size, choice all excellent. They don't need a sign in there window to tell you about some alcoholic celebrity who thinks there great , it lit up like Las Vegas , there quality does the tha talking

The staff were really friendly and the food is excellent, piping hot and the best chippy in Argyle.

I have been here some numerous times and enjoyed having a sausage and chip meal, however my most recent visit ended up with a bout of food poisoning. I won't be coming here again. Please make sure you cook your food thoroughly and keep areas well cleaned.

Super delicious food, fish & chips very tasty and with different types of fish, the steak was also perfect! Desserts also very good. Service very attentive....would always recommend it and finally a restaurant where the small dog is allowed into the restaurant!

We tried fish and chips and oysters, it was very nice. However, I cannot comment well on risotto. They stated that their chef was Polish. Other than that everything was great.

The shop itself is very clean and well laid out, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. I was shocked at the cost of 1 Special (Breadcrumbed) Fish, 1 Special Fish Supper and 1 Large (1 and a half fillets of fish) Special Fish Supper, came to £38!! The food was nice but definitely not worth the money. If you want sauce, it's 50p a sachet! Another example of 'ripping off' the tourists. Would not go back because of the price. My local village chippy charges £9.50 for a Large Special Fish Supper that has 2 fillets of fish. **APOLOGIES, THIS REVIEW SHOULD BE FOR - THE OBAN FISH & CHIPS TAKE-AWAY/RESTAURANT **, which is also on George Street.

Great little fish/seafood restaurant,friendly service.

Great food absolutely delicious! service was great I just don’t understand how you can charge £15 for a double gin then the price of tonic kind of puts me off coming back I’ve been to other restaurants in the town and no where near that price. But can’t fault the good.

Came here in a rush and they forgot our order and we waited for 20 mins. We had to remind them. Food was very average.

Pleasant welcome, copious plates, very good pudding!

I wanted to give it more Stars, because the food was good and the staff OK but I orderd a Chicken Burger and all i got was a little piece of Chicken, No Sauce, No Salad and Not even Burger Buns.That Just isn't a Burger and it was titled ,,Chicken Burger".I hate it when i get scammed and that was a scam so unfortunately only one Star.

Decent fish and chips and pleasant staff. It's quite small, so there may be issue getting a table, but the take out spot is right next door. I was pleased to see that they had several options beyond just the traditional haddock. The grilled salmon looked delicious.

Second time eating there and a year on it was as good as the first time. Well cooked and delicious fish.

I was in Oban for 5days with my cousin and we had a fish tea on 4 ocations. Food was amazing, filling and very tasty. Staff remembered us and wer soo welcoming, and friendly. Definitely recommend. Xxx

Very friendly welcome. Copious plates and good quality fish! A treat for the taste buds.

Ordered food. Paid. Ate it outside. Tried to pee- a normal human function at a restaurant. Was told I could not as the precious toilet is for indoor eating guests. There’s way better chippys in town that are nicer.

One star for service - paid in cash for our meal, server did not return our change but kept it as a tip. Food was good, atmosphere was fine.

The shop makes a bold claim that it’s the best fish and chips Rick Stein has ever tasted. Now whilst I can’t support that having not tried all fish and chips out there, what I can say is the fish and chips are better than Stein’s Fish and Chips in Padstow! Recommend.

We were surprised, the attention was great, and you can recognize the fresh fish on the flavor and texture. Everything was great. The prices are very reasonable. They have a section for takeout to.

Fish tea well worth the money. Excellent piece of haddock - not greasy. Chips, Mushy Peas and home made tartare all top notch. First class service.

Cosy, immaculate little place with amazing food, very friendly staff, food served quickly and also dog friendly. Toilet also really clean, smells fresh.

Extremely unpleasant counter staff, spoke to us like dogs, sold us veggie burgers without the bun.

The service was friendly and efficient (even for folks who needed explanation of some of the menu particulars), even though the order line and the pickup line were both 5-10 people deep. Both lines moved fast. The haddock supper was done to perfection. As to the atmosphere, it’s a take-away, so the atmosphere is up to you. I stumbled upon the restaurant and chose it BECAUSE there was a line (and the majority of the folks in line were locals).

Best chippie restaurant in Fort William 👌...meal was delicious, staff very nice smart in appearance. Restaurant beautifully designed and nice music in the background. Fish was lightly battered, and chips were dry, not greasy.

OVERPRICED. food was average, very basic service. Crowded little dining area "ye can't sit upstairs until we fill the first level."

Good traditional fish and chips. Good size portions as well. Also has picnic benches around corner on the promenade to eat at. Very busy wee shop.

George street Fish and chips restaurant stamps all over Rick steins fish and chips excellently cooked service second to none will be back again thank you.

Wow! Fresh fish. Decent batter.

Food was OK. Nothing special. All meals came with chips and some rocket.

We spent 3 weeks in the UK (England, Wales, and Scotland) and this was the BEST meal we had the whole trip. The selections, preparations and service were top notch. Especially appreciated the grilled salmon, fresh salads and vegetables that were hard to come by elsewhere! A must if you visit Oban.

Great fish restaurant, good varied choice and all fresh from the port, decent portions, a little bigger wouldn't have been too much but very good, for fish & chips choose takeaway

In a word ‘OUTSTANDING’ definitely not to be missed- best fish and freshest fish I’ve tasted in many years..plus it’s licensed! Can’t get any better than that!

Delicious food. Friendly staff. Recommended

Excellent food and excellent service!

Very small restaurant serving one of the best battered cod and chips we've ever had. They do other fish dishes as well but we can only really comment on the cod. Service friendly and efficient

In one word …. Outstanding! Not to be missed! Haddock was so fresh so tasty Never had fish and chips like it… service was fabulous the the staff just superb friendly and chatty Plus it’s licensed…

We were In oban on tue and went to restaurant had the fish tea and breadbutter not the first time we been hear and won't be the last food service and price great can't recommend enough

The food in this small restaurant is amazing. We had the spicy fish soup to start which simple blew our minds. We then had the Calamari and then I had the langoustines and my wife one of the fish... both were outstanding. We were completely blown away with the experience and fully recommend this to anyone in the area.

We tried fish and chips, fish cake and sticky toffy pudding. Excellent restaurant, small and quiet.

Had already decided on our visit to Oban that we were going to have a fish and chips tea as when by the 🌊 🦭 you can't get any fresher. We wanted to eat in so George Str. Fit the bill exactly. You definitely get the personal touch here with exceptional staff 👏 and food and drink 🍸 you would be tasting in a 5 star 🌟 Restaurant. Got to be visited ✨️ you will not be disappointed.

We both had fish and chips for lunch, obviously heated up from night before...a visitor to the town and very disappointed 😞

Nice restaurant, friendly staff, quite expensive

Fantastic food, lovely atmosphere and very friendly staff. Would highly recommend to anyone. Fish so fresh amd batter golden brown.

We had really good food. For a restaurant, they have a very good selection of whiskies. It was very busy, but we were recommended the Whisky Vaults bar (definitely go there!) while we waited for a table to become available. When the table in the restaurant was free, we were even picked up personally. What a great service!

A very nice restaurant and very busy.we managed to get a table at lunch time and had the haddock and chips which was excellent.Between 12.00 and 18.00 it costs £16.50 which includes bread and butter and a coffee.great value and it was an excellent fish and a half..definitely recommend this restaurant

Seriously the worst scampi and chips I’ve ever had. Sad and soggy chips and stingy flavourless scampi. Walk straight past

Visited twice in two days as the food here is excellent. Claire looked after us with great service. All the staff were really helpful. If you’re in Oban don’t miss a visit here.

Huge haddock, chips, peas, bread, tarter sauce and pot of tea £16.95. With wonderful service.

Delicious food and a menu that leaves you spoiled for choice, served by friendly and efficient staff in a spotlessly clean restaurant.

Great fish dinner, well worth the visit.

The fish was fairly good, but extortionate pricing, over £20 for a Haddock fish supper to take away. Charging 55p for wee sachets of ketchup, really poor form.

Enjoyed it, ate at another fish and chips place in town that I like better, but this still hit the spot.

Soggy, flabby batter, very expensive. Not good

Amazing fish and chips with homemade tarter sauce had lemon soul and loved every bit of it will definitely recommend can takeaway or sit in to

Stopped in while in Oban for a visit, ordered a single pizza and pizza crunch along with pie and chips. Food was hot and tasty and reasonably priced considering the location. Would recommend

Great fish and chips ... probably some of the best I've ever had. If you like fish and chips and are in Oban, you must go to George Street Fish Restaurant.

The taste of the food is great. The portion of salmon is a bit small. Service is nice. Location at the harbor.

The food was lovely , I waited 40 minutes from ordering for food , drinks were cold then finished by the time food arrived , weak apology and no offer of fresh drinks

Fish was 5 ⭐️, sadly the chips were more like a 3.5

Excellent food and friendly service. A good place to eat

We called in here for lunch on a day trip to Oban. The food is cooked to order, be prepared for a bit of a wait for your food. It was well worth it, good size portions, decent price and piping hot. Definitely worth a visit. Beware of the seagulls if you sit outside though.

Food was disgusting and over priced!! Was all over cooked and fish was like rubber. £18 for a fish supper and bag of chips. Would not recommend

very nice food, scallops & chorizo, and seabass. Glass of wine and apple juice, 1xdessert and 1x coffee £65

It's my first time in the UK to eat a Fish Dish not in a Fish n Chips. I ordered the grilled salmon, which is very delicious!!! Good Service, unfortunately we sat upstairs, where the vibes are less better than downstairs. But, since I got good food. This experience is amazing!! Love it.

One of the best fish and chips I've ever had. Decent beer too.

Sadly, my wife and I just had a fish & chips take away and sat overlooking the harbour in Oban. We ate it as we were so hungry and had been looking forward to this since our last visit to Oban, however, it was awful. The fish was undercooked so the batter was soggy and inedible, it was made to order and obviously rushed, so the fat was still dripping into the tray. It's really not difficult to make fish & chips.... Batter, fry, serve, how can you make it so bad? A fish gave its life for what?

Excellent food, very fresh, and very nice waiters. A very enjoyable experience !

Lovely little restaurant with nice atmosphere with lit candles. Nice service and staff

Excellent fish restaurant near the harbour.

Amazing fish suppers,lovely friendly staff just what was needed on a wet Friday night.

Went to Oban for Easter weekend March 2024 in the caravan and we arrived late so went into town and we found this chip shop in George Street where you could sit in and I promise you it is the best fish n chips I have EVER had and the service was amazing the staff were so welcoming and friendly I would definitely 100% recommend it. Also I had a wee cheeky wine with it too. Thank you to all the staff in there. X sorry no.pics 😞
