McKays Fish & Chip Shop in Perth & Kinross

Not bad, a normal fish & chips would be ~£12.95 Seafood + an extra fish was ~£40 which was steeper Quite full during dinner on a weekend but relatively fast service There’s water for self service and a toilet in the adjacent hotel of the same name

Everything was ok, portions a little small given it was a little on the expensive side, very touristy so paying a premium to be there?

Visited this place when an enchanted forest was on, so it was very busy. Food was great. Wee bit expensive more than I would normally spend but it was good.

Best fish and chips I've ever had

Delicious fish and a large portion served with fries, sauces and lemon. I recommend it 😋😋😋

Excellent. Had large gluten free haddock supper. Best I've ever had! Also milk free batter, catering for my lactose intolerance too.

Good service, they serve you quickly and deliver your food in 10 minutes. The fish & chips are delicious, they also have the option of nuggets.

£12.95 for 6 scampi & chips. £2.50 for a 500ml plastic bottle of irn bru.

Steak pie my arse crust with steak and gravy in pot

Very good all the fish, ideal for fish lovers reasonable price

Large haddock (supper option) is a fantastic choice for a quick lunch for two people

What an expensive disappointment. Four of us sat in, 2 mediocre fish and chips, definitely not haddock, and 2 platters, self service, wooden cutlery and overpriced food. Just short of £100. Never again.

Steak pie ..fatty beef , thin greasy gravy ! Chips had a awful taste of cheap or old oil ! Far too expensive !

Absolutely lovely fish n chips. Thank you 👍

Second time we have been here for fish and chips ,dad is GF .all of us thought the fish and chips were gorgeous .tartar sauce and lemon slices all included with the fish and chips .

Lovely plaice (get it!!!). Very fresh, a couple of tables weirdly have napkins to stop wobbles. Kind of makes the place look unclean from dropped tissues . wife had fish and said was the tastiest she has had in years. I had white pudding, very nice. You don't get a big amount of chips and are just kind of scattered on the bottom of the plate, be nicer side by side with the other item. A nice eatery

Lovely food, really friendly staff, great atmosphere.

Really good quality great service and friendly staff

Quite busy when we went.A lot of coach trips were ordering. But fish and chips were worth waiting for.

Perfect local fish n chips. Was visiting from the states had to try theirs. Will definitely go back if I'm in the area again.

We opted to have battered haddock and chips, which were freshly cooked to order. Portion sizes were okay. We were disappointed that the fish and chips had been cooked in oil, not beef dripping. Oil is fine, providing that the fish is left to stand for a while, which, in our it hadn't been. As a result, the fish and chips were very, very oily!! Unfortunately, it was a very disappointing meal.

Fish oily and undercooked batter. Strange aftertaste

Visited this place whilst on staycation with family. Their food is good. They try their best to serve as fast as possible. Although, they don't tend to make that much effort on conversing, I understand it's due to them being busy & short staff. So no complaints there. I would recommend it for good place to enjoy your food whilst sitting down comfortably. They also do takeaway those who are in a rush.

That was a great fish and chips 😁

For eating in the meals come on paper plates with wooden utensils.

More expensive than the last time we visited & bar meals seem to have bitten the dust in favour of the restaurant, which is more formal (but still dog friendly). Having said all that, their fish & chips was the best I've had in months!

Was so happy that Gluten Free fish and chips were available. They were really lovely too

Was in for drinks and managed to get a pint of Murphys for the 1st time in years

We ordered chips and a veggie burger with chips… first of all person taking order mess everything up but that happens so fine.. burger was ok and quite good but …. The chips … honestly that was the worst chips that I’ve ever eaten! I don’t know what was that but was so bad that oven can’t describe it .

Despite the statement that dogs were allowed, we were turned away from the F&C snack bar. We have a mini Maltese that even sat in a closed bag. Let's understand the Scots, dogs were allowed next door in the McKays restaurant! The food in the restaurant was good and the price/performance ratio was ok. Unfortunately it is not possible to rate the fish & chips for McKays.

We had visited here 3 years ago and had a lovely meal so as we were passing through we would eat here again as they offered gluten free fish and chips. We ordered 3 fish and chips, one gluten free and sausage and chips. There was only one piece of fish and it didn’t taste like haddock tbh. The sausage was ok but nothing special, the saving grace was that the chips were nice although the portions weren’t great. Together with a few sauces the bill was £51, not value for money.

We had fish and chips. The fish was really tasty but a bit smaller than I am used to, but that is not really a negative as was full. The price was quite eye watering, which was a surprise for someone used to paying Edinburgh prices.

The official dish in Scotland It is fried fish with potatoes. FISH AND CHIPS

Really busy for being the middle of the week, which made the food come out slower. My fishcakes were more potato than fish, couldn't even really taste the fish.

Very good excellent service to recommend.

Lovely little town, great service. Huge piece of Haddock and even the regular haddock was huge. Perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious

Very poor, very disappointing We went for take away - large haddock and chips. It looked like bit of fish put togeter if i wanted fish bite i would ordered that. Fish was very thin and tasteless. Shame as we have been going there for years. Customer service not good either fish and chips put on counter there your salt and vinegar then water away! No bag or anything.

The first time there were bones in 2 different portions. But on subsequent visits everything was ok. Additional tartar sauces are often forgotten. See you next year.

Expensive, average fish cakes but good chips

Very bad experience The worst milkshake ever. I don’t recommend

Nice place, with greath bar. You can sit outside. Food was good!

Great lunch! We all loved what we got. Dining room is cozy with tartan chairs and a fireplace. Highly recommend the Steak Puff Pastry, BBQ Nachos, and Lamb Shoulder.

Fish n chips lovely and cooked fresh defo worth a visit

Stopped for a bag of chips on way north 7.30ish Friday night,chips where hard inside staff where poor at service. Won't be back. School boy error hard in the middle

Beautiful fish and chips. Clean restaurant with plenty of seating. Wooden cutlery and bit difficult to hold things on fork. Staff friendly and helpful

Great atmosphere but price a bit high but it's Scotland

We've been very pleased by all we got from this shop. We've been here before, and we'll definitely be back. We asked for 1 fish and chips to share. The portion was huge. All food hot and delicious. Creamy chips. Nice curry sauce and mushy peas. Lemon wage was there and a tartar sauce 🥰 Clean and tidy place. Highly recommend once you're in the area. In photo just a little of the food we got. Not a representative photo, but still something. We left nothing on our plates 😅

The food is very tasty, it came relatively quickly and the service is very good.

A large was about the right size for two of us to share for lunch. It was nice, fish was fresh and chips tasty. I'm slightly surprised at the reviews saying they were the best ever though. Staff were nice.

Nicely decorated inside and pleasant to sit in and chill, quick service, freshly fried food.

Quite possibly the best fish and chips I’ve ever had! A good crunch from the chips, batter wasn’t greasy, and great haggis! As a bonus, the staff are lovely and chatty too! Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a good meal in the area.

It's not an award winning fish&chips restaurant for nothing. Juicy haddock, crunchy batter, crisp outside soft inside chips. And Moretti on tap!

Excellent fish & chips. Perfect cooking of the fish and crispy, low-fat results. Huge portions. A bit of a fast food atmosphere. Draft beer available

Spotless location outwith main hotel. Fish and chips were very good. Staff work hard as very busy however they are cheery.

Very nice food . But for what it is I find it to be a bit expensive.

Popped in for a couple of fish suppers, they were great, crispy chips and plenty fish in the batter. Just a short wait of 5 mins or so for a freshly made takeaway! Friendly staff too.

Staff not friendly, there to do a job and that's it. Chips greasy and tastes fishy. Ice cream next door (same company) charged 50p for 6 MINI marshmallows on ice cream, 4 fell off on the counter so basically got charged for 2 mini marshmallows. 1 member of staff actually told the other to still charge for them even though we got 2.

Lovely fish and chips, made fresh while you wait.

Was lovely and very helpful staff

Very tasty fish suppers, nice and crisp. Quick and friendly service nut didn't have chippy sauce!

Good Food, fair prices, but.... the building style of this fast-food restaurant destroy the outlook of the nice village road...

Best fish tasted for a while August 2024 all card only now.

Tasty fresh & Chips, Seafood Soup at a very reasonable price!

Excellent GF battered fish. Didn't seem to be any toilets.

Best fish and chips my family and I have ever had in Scotland! The batter was very light and haddock was fresh, while the chips were very delicious. The staff were very friendly and provided us with the condiments, salt and vinegar, and the cutlery we needed. Good burger as well! Pricing was OK too, it was well worth the money

Really enjoyed fish and chips from makays. A wee bit pricey but fish quality explains that. Must admit not a lot of chips but again fish portion made up for it one and half fish. The chips were good but a wee tattie more n all good.

Very nice setting on main street in Pitlochry I sat outside in their beer garden very pleasant

Absolutely amazing! Best chip shops chips I’ve ever had. Usually chippy chips are a soggy mess, with no flavour but the ones from McKays were so crisp and not too oily and full of flavour. Definitely worth a visit

Bistro clean and pleasant. Free water with lemon and ice. Haggis excellent. Fish&Chips good. Fries a little soft and lacked salt, but there is always salt and vinegar on the table for seasoning. Large portions, we couldn't even finish the amount of fries. You get as much ketchup and "brown" sauce as you want. Compared to the price of meals in other establishments, it is a good price here.

As far as fish and chips go, it's not bad - but not amazing. The fish was a bit on the greasy side and I was appalled by their use of disposable cutlery and plates - I get wanting to clean up quickly, but surely there's a way to keep tidy whilst not creating so much unnecessary landfill, especially at low-traffic times. Staff were agreeable but definitely not going out of their way to help (not a negative criticism, just a statement). All in all, it's a touristic chip shop with all the pros and cons that entails...

Happy friendly staff, great fish & chips.

Hit or miss. Sometime food is top notch sometimes not. Haggis and white pudding freezing inside, returned and second time still freezing. It was done correctly the third time. One fish supper, top notch one single fish greasy. Not the first time this has happened here.

Chips were bug chunky ones very good. Bit too greasy for me but still enjoyable. Asked for brown sauce to go with take away didn't realise it was mayonnaise until back at the car. It's a bit of a hurried ordering system, that could be because it deals with restaurant too?? Im speculating here. you get a bleeper and are advised that you need to take a seat come back when the bleeper goes off. Didn't feel like a welcoming shop very much next, next, customers were pushing past me as I tried to pay. Very clean from what I could tell. I'd try again.

The food is delicious, the service could be nicer. There are no toilets here, and no sign of them.

Cheap fish and chips restaurant. It's a bit like the North Sea chain here...

Tasty fish and chips, well cooked and a generous portion. Lovely to be able to eat al fresco at tables outside, last Friday en route north. A good pit stop

Fairly quick service. However the chip roll was mainly inedible. A brioche roll which is too sweet for a chip roll. Most of the chips were stuck together so definitely not fresh. Minimal salt and vinegar added, couldn't taste any. Gave it another try after a previous bad experience with customer service, food has gone down hill this time. They were plating up someone's fish and you could see how burnt it was.

OK food, maybe a bit overpriced for what you get but deffinatly not the worst fish and chips I've ever had.

Great local chip shop, highly recommended!

Most disgusting chips I’ve ever tasted. Will never eat here again

Very well prepared, both fish and potatoes

Brilliant food drink and atmosphere

Worst fish and chips I've had in the UK. Breading was greasy and not crisp. Would not eat here again.

We loved it. The fish was perfect and the potatoes were delicious, the tartar sauce that accompanied the dish was also very good. It's not cheap but for the quantity and quality it's fine.

Had very tasty fish and chips 👍👍

Had fish n chips today, the food was excellent but the attitude of certain staff is not good. After we had eaten my wife asked where the toilets were. She was greeted with a shrug and told 'Next door'. The woman then said to her colleague in gull earshot of my wife 'huh' 'the amount of times I get asked that, may as well have a bell'. May I ģive you 2 suggestions 1-Create a sign indicating where the toilets are 2-Train your staff in customer service and communicating We will not return

Had a fantastic family meal. Everyone enjoyed the food.

Brilliant food..even at 3.30pm on Monday 10/6/24...huge portions on all four meals.2 Canadian tourists..our guests,raved about food.Top notch everyone!

Good quality food ,choices are good

Really spacious and modern sitting area and fish m chips, Cullen Skink were exceptional! Great service and overall value for money - definitely recommended!

Had a good macaroni and cheese, and the chips were tasty as well.

Just ok, chips were good but the Mac and cheese was very mediocre, nice place though

This restaurant is lovely and the food is fab. However the staff need some lessons in how to welcome customers.They were very unfriendly to the point of being dour !! When asked for a slight change in what we were given they were bordering on rude. It is a pity as the food is good but we would not go back because of the staff attitude.

Awesome fish and chips! Whole family loved it!

Had no problem getting a table. Food was lovely. Only negative is the wooden cutlery as whatever you were trying to eat would on a regular basis just fall off the fork. All for using sustainable products instead of plastic so just need to change to another wood based product to hopefully improve the grip.

Fish and chips are the most common food in England. Pitlocry is a picturesque little town in the countryside, where McKays is located. I found the dish a little greasy as the fish was oily....

Amazing food and super big portions. I highly recommend it.

The service was quick and efficient. Breaded Haddock was very good and with a large and generous portion. The room is light and airy. Toilets are available at the hotel.

So apart form the the new guy getting the order wrong, which will always be forgiven, the food was excellent. The gluten free batter was the best my other half had ever had and we do have gluten free fish and chips wherever we go. The portions were decent and the curry sauce had a good amount of spice. The haggis pudding was battered and crisp on the outside and perfectly cooked and hot. Price, not the cheapest but cheap gets you cheap. Well worth a visit!!.

Portion sizes are absolutely terrible for the price, the food is average at best, service from the staff was one of the only positives I'll take away from the chip shop, sadly for me I'll give it a miss in the future.
