Mollans Rainbow Shed in Eilean Siar

The tag line is the "Smallest chippy in Scotland", they work out of a fairly small shed with a number of small fryers. There's space for about 4-5 cars so I didn't have a problem parking. There's an easy to use online ordering system, I picked up the QR code at the nearby campsite I was staying at. You pick a 10 minute slot for your collection which is arranged online to stop them getting overloaded. I had large haddock, chips and mushy peas which were cooked to order. The haddock was perfectly battered and cooked, the chips were just right too. The mushy peas looked natural rather than full of green dye. All in all it was worthy of five star all round. Probably a couple of £ more than the average chippy, but well above average so good value. More than happy to recommend.

Perfect treat for our last night on the island. The online order system was really easy to use (definitely pre-order as they are super busy!) and the food was fresh and delicious. Lovely customer service too - highly recommend!

Visited for lunch on our last day on Lewis. Online ordering was so easy and food was cooked fresh. I loved the quirkiness of the place and the food was delicious! It was a 45 minute drive to get there, but well worth it. Owners very friendly. A must visit 😊

Tasty food cooked by wonderful people. Make sure you go here for your fish and chips! The black pudding was delicious! Very happy customers.

A must visit on our annual visit to Lewis. Excellent fish 'n' chips. Generous portion with fresh fish and tasty chips. Take them down to nearby Shawbost beach...heaven. Always a friendly welcome. Remember to book ahead as can be very busy

Great little takeaway in the village of Shawbost. Very useful online booking service which means your food is freshly cooked and piping hot. The fish was delicious with a really light, crispy batter, the chips were perfectly cooked and the goose burger (yes you read that right!) was very tasty with a lovely red onion chutney on top of it. Very friendly welcome and there appears to be a small area you can sit and have something to eat too. Big portions as well! Definitely value for money.

Great welcoming atmosphere and delicious food! The owners were very helpful when asked for help. we had a chocolate brownie and some bread and butter pudding, they were excellent value for money and delicious! Would definitely recommend going here!

Best food by far! Excellent service and could not fault it. Had the sweet and sour prawns, they were amazing!

Friend;y and helpful service, serving excellent quality, fresh fish and chips. Great tasting haddock, lovely light batter and chips cooked to perfection.

Fantastic Fish n Chips, one of the nicest ive had in a long while. Also such a friendly wee place to be.🌈😊

We planned our trip south to north to be with Mollans when their chippy was open! A vegan and gluten free bean burger and chips awaited and capped off our holiday. Julie was so helpful, made it especially and I felt totally save in her and Rachel’s hands. It’s a really special experience going to collect. Fish and chips apparently wonderful too. Thank you again so very much:-) xx

Great idea, really great food. The booking system worked fine and meant that the food was ready when I arrived and there were no queues

What a gem!! Lots of lovely home made produce, locally sourced; often from the nearby beach! We tried a couple of mouth watering tray bakes and one of the many homemade ice creams; rhubarb crumble…all highly recommended! Free range duck and hen eggs too, from some very happy birds. If you’re in the area you really need to visit!

We’ve stumbled upon Mollan’s Rainbow shed completely by chance, and had amazing two hours of tea and delicious home made cakes, in the company of cats, ducks and an adorable dog. Wish we stayed long enough on the island to try their fish and chips.

All their food is amazing. I absolutely love their cheese burger and chips and their chocolate brownies are amazing. Lovely service and always have a great laugh.

Absolutely fantastic fresh gluten free fish & chips!!! This is a place not to be missed, I highly recommend

Really tasty fish and chips, cooked fresh (so you have to book ahead). And REALLY friendly people. A must if you are in the area.

Excellent fish suppers with light and crispy batter. Fish cooked just right, with large flakes and still moist. Large portions and cooked to order so would not hesitate to recommend.

My husband and I love this place , the food we ordered for takeaway was just so homey and very well done . I highly recommended this as a stop when you’re on isle of skye❤️❤️❤️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Best fish and chips I have ever had and always freshly cooked. Always a good varied menu with seasonal specials. Deserts and ice cream all made on site. Warm welcome and very knowledgeable on allergies and dietery requirements.

Excellent Haddock and Chips. Plus we bought a hand knitted hat from their little shop. Easy to pre book online.

Wonderful fish and chips from our favourite wee chip shop. All served with smiles and good craic! Highly recommended.

Fantastic local business with very friendly and helpful owners! Absolutely delicious food - plus the rainbow shed is a dream! We’ll have to come back!

The food was amazing and the chips were clearly home made, as was the tartar sauce. Loved it and will be back on my next holiday.

Was wonderful to see my grandfather's family home at 32 North Shawbost transformed into this delightful takeaway. Enjoyed fish and chips - with amazing tartar sauce - which we ate down at Dalbeg beach. Will be back for another visit soon!

Can't fault the service and quality of food received. Ordering online is really quick and easy and food is always freshly cooked when you arrive. They are very well educatated on allergies and people's specific needs which is always reassuring. Frozen foods also available and...

What wonderful little business this is and was pleased to support. Had the most marvelous Haddock and chips ever. Such friendly people.

Delicious fish and chips from the unlikeliest location. Also an honesty shed with great cakes, bread, home made condiments and knitware

We popped in and had a lovely roll and bacon and cup of coffee, had a lovely chat with the owner went away with some shawbost seasoning and some dried seaweed that I'm looking forward to try cooking with when I get home and as...

Fish and chips were absolutely delicious, freshly made with generous portions. Ice Cream - oh wow! Need to go back for more :)

Really handy. The honesty shed is set up with frozen home made curry's, ice cream and burgers, home baking, confectionary and handicrafts. It was close to where we were staying (and half an hour away from the shops in Stornoway) so after a long day...

Delicious fish and chips, a really friendly welcome and great service from the staff, plus a lovely beach nearby to eat your food. The online booking service was really useful.

Tried the curried chickpea pastie and black bean burger, both delish and cooked to perfection, great chips! Great to have another Vegan option on the island. Enjoyed it on the beach on a sunny evening.

This isn't a reastaurant of even a cafe in the normal sense - a painted shed and a gazebo to shelter you from the waether if you stop by for a daytime drink or a snack -but the baking is excellent, the prices very reasonable,...

Best fish n chips on the island , cooked to order with friendly service and reasonably priced . Highly recommend

The food was delicious, such good value with generous helpings. I ordered the wrong thing but hadn’t realised, Shannon noticed and it was changed without fuss. Very kind, welcoming and lovely people, will definitely be back, and with visiting friends and family. I recommend to...

We travelled 20 miles for the most delicious gluten free fish and chips . Very reasonably priced and cooked to order . You have to ring or book thru their Facebook page but it’s well worth it . A generous portion served hot and there’s...

Just devoured a very fresh haddock with chips. Food very tasty and served up by an efficient friendly service. Looking forward to the home made curry night. Mollans is well worth a visit for a variety of excellent homemade fresh produce. Orders are easily placed...

Real homemade food, very tasty ... generous portions, not a place that you leave still being hungry! Our party had the fish chips and peas and the bacon cheese burger and chips -- both 10/10, freshly made to order ... best we've had for a...

Outstanding welcome and the best place for the most delicious carrot cake and brownie. The huge mug of tea was much appreciated after a soggy cycle there. Spending time with these lovely people and gorgeous sprocket spaniel Bonnie was a highlight of our trip. Thanks...

We are just visiting Lewis and found out about Mollans from the campsite we are staying at. Couldn’t resist the temptation of fresh fish and chips delivered to us so we used the online ordering system,which was easy, and sure enough our supper arrived on...

Wonderful fish and chips and friendly service. Love getting our regular take aways! So glad the new set up in The Smallest Fish and Chip Shop is going well. Many thanks to Julie and Rachel.

On our last night of a week on Lewis we had fish and chips from Mollans. We prebooked and when I arrived the food was just finishing cooking. A great end to a fabulous week on the island. The food was excellent. Also picked up...

This is a relatively remote location with few businesses, however , this take out food place is excellent - day one coffee and cakes and then day 2 a delivered full English breakfast ! The owners were attentive , informative and nice warming folk! Good...

Gorgeous breakfast rolls and coffee thank you - delicious! And we really enjoyed chatting to the lovely owners and meeting the chickens and chicks - thank you ❤️

We were staying at Shawbost campsite (Eilean Fraoiche), and saw the leaflet advertising breakfast. We rang before 7pm, and paid over the phone. It was delivered hot and tasty by 8.30am next morning! Highly recommended.

We stayed at he Shawbost campsite for a couple of nights in July. We ordered the cooked breakfast from Mollans for a change as there aren't many places where you can eat out. This was delivered to the campsite in the morning and was a...

This place was a godsend on our Hebridean Way cycle trip. There are so few places to get food and drink on the route so if you are going through Shawbost please do youselves a favour and call in. It's about 500m off the main...
