Oban Fish and Chip Shop in Argyll & Bute

Ooh this chippy is ACE! Grandson had jumbo sausage & we had Haddock & Chips! Both brilliant! Service was so quick even though the place was full.

The fish and chips were fantastic, had cod,

Excellent food; we had fish chips and mushy peas. Perfection, crisp thin batter, chips crisp on outside soft on the inside. Pease actually had flavour ! Great service too

Just a really great meal with superfast service for a great price!

Smiling and friendly staff, excellent quality fish!! Quick service and fair price! They also have high chairs for children!! Highly recommended

Really great tasting fish and chips!

Fantastic food and service. The only downside is: now whenever I order Fish n Chips anywhere else it'll come with the disappointment of knowing how it should have been.

Without a doubt the best fish and chips ever had. Standard is the same every time. Well done to all the staff.

5 star petfect yummy fish supper with pot of tea for two delicious

Absolutely great fish and chips plus the best white pudding I have ever eaten! All freshly cooked so you have to wait for them but well worth the wait. Fantastic chip shop. Well worthy of its awards. The only one who was disappointed was the dog as there wasn’t much left for him…

We went to this fish and chip shop as read online there was good gluten free options. Instead we were told by the young man at the counter there was no gf options to had there - zero.

Quick and efficient service. Decent amount of chips in a supper. Sausage supper, 2 battered sausage, just what we expected. Haggis supper, disappointed with the haggis, personally found it too moist and pretty tasteless. Wouldn't have it again.

Best fish and chips in Oban by a country mile. Beautifully cooked. The freshest Haddock chips peas tartar sauce and bread and butter with a cold bottle of iron bru. Sure it gets better every time we visit.

I had the regular Cod n chips (cod supper) I can't say it was amazing....was fresh cooked...but I didn't get much flavour...maybe I should have got haddock or a more tasty fish. Good but not my favourite chippy 🙈 Had better at home in the north west England 🙈

We ate there for lunch after arriving from Mull. It seems to be the best fish & chips in Oban. My husband had the small fish which wasn't small and I had the fried chicken. Good portion and choice on the menu.

Flipping heck! I had no idea that fish and chips could be this good! Exceptionally professional service, a very high standard of food and a great selection of fresh local produce and home made condiments and salads!

Great fish and chip restaurant, I had the vegetarian option, one person had a mac and cheese and the other two had fish but I didn’t take a photo. Great portion sizes and value for money, lovely service as well. Would recommend!! Our tour guide said this was the best fish and chips place in town and it did not disappoint!!

Great fish and chips! A must in Oban- haggis was great as well- worth a try! Grab it to go and beers at the shop next door and head to a bench near the water for a sunset picnic.

Lovely chips and a really tasty vegan haggis – not something you often find in a chippy, so it was a brilliant surprise! Great to have a proper vegan option, and it didn’t disappoint. Highly recommended!

Absolute rip off. £11.90 for one piece of fish and a handful of chips. I would not mind so much if it actually tasted good, but it was not to be. Batter held so much oil, I was up most of the night with horrendous heartburn. Never again.

The best fish and chips in Oban in my opinion 😋

I was staying in Oban for one night and arrived at my hotel slightly late, a member of staff recommended the Oban fish and chip Shop, I ordered a small fish supper which was freshly cooked and was a generous portion, the chips were lovely and the fish was superb, the batter was lite and Golden Brown with lovely fresh White fish, the best fish and chips I have eaten in ages, great value for money thankyou.

Fantastic fish and chips, local sole was delicious as well as some scampi. Very glad I stopped in and would recommend.

Very nice fish and chips .........but at a price!! £19.50 for large Cod and Chips as opposed to £14.50 down south in our neck of the woods. Maybe prices are just dearer in Scotland.

Value for money with sitin as an option. Jumbo sausage is two big sausages and loads of chips too.

Biggest waste of money fish was awful worst I've ever had. Don't mind paying that sort of money if good food. My advice try one of the others can't be worse that's for sure.

Had a brilliant fish supper from this chippy. Succulent fish with nice batter and not 1 bone in either piece. The chips were fluffy and tasty and made for a perfect supper. Not everyone's choice but I love curry sauce on my fish supper and the curry here is really good.

We thought we'd try Obans award winning fish and chip shop (sorry for the tomato ketchup) Unfortunately we could not recommend, scallops overcooked, chips super greasy, cod was nice though. Glad we took the dog as the sausages we not pleasant.

Seafood Capital of Scotland you know.

Great place to visit! I don't like chippies but I happily travel from Glasgow for the good service and food!

Amazing portion sizes while remaining absolutely delicious, staff are friendly and helpful. If youre feeling like fish and chips to complete your seaside adventure, come here.

Best Fish and Chips in Scotland . We were there 1.11.2024y yummie

The food was okay, the atmosphere was cozy and the service was good.

The food was really yummy! Nice thick potatoes, excellent cod and we also have some really good fried fish. Unfortunately the restaurant wasn't open, there was only take away but it was still excellent. Plus we got ketchup and mayonnaise and their famous mayonnaise sauce with garlic (excellent).

We decided to visit one of the top-rated fish and chips shops, based on all the glowing reviews and awards featured on their website, during our little vacation in the area. After driving 20 miles, we were disappointed to find it was a waste of money. The piece of fish was tiny with the smallest cut and heavily battered, and it came and greasy due to the thick batter. Chips were ok just your normal chips shop chips. I don’t mind paying premium prices for high-quality food, but this was far from it.

I've just found the best fish, chicken, chips and much more, ever in my life, I had a massive chicken and chips, I could not finnish it excellent pleasant service !! When in Oban, don't miss it !!

Typical fish and chip restaurant in Oban. The portions are abundant

This has got to be THE best chippie I have come across in Scotland. When staying in Oban for 4 nights, myself and hubby were looking for a quick bite to eat, we came across this fantastic chippie by chance. We both had regular fish suppers on our first visit. Fresh fish, nice light crispy batter and the portion of chips that came with the supper was big enough to feed two people. Chips were tasty especially dipped in their own made tartare sauce. Our second visit was macaroni and cheese with chips. Oh my actual god, this is the best Mac n cheese (apart from my hubby’s ) I have tasted from a fast food shop. I can’t big this chippie up enough. If you’re partial to even a wee poke o’ chips, get yourself to this chippie - it is the business ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Hands down the best fish and chips I've eaten. Amazing quality. Crispy light batter. And the best waitress ever.

Dont know what rick stein had. The fish and chips are over rated. Fish is soggy totally shocking. And the price for fish supper is daylight robbery. Give this place a wide berth. We think it was Frenkensteen who tried it. Never again. Soggy Fish

Best fish and chips I've had in a long time!!

Takeaway from here has just gotten worse, now isn't even edible. Undercooked chips, fish soaked in grease and soggy. Went in the bin. Shameful especially since they plaster big accolades all over the window- third best fish and chips in Britain? What a joke.

Fish was horrendous not cooked properly Very disappointed as I read all positive reviews

Takeaway, quick service, friendly, a good sized portion and excellent quality of Fish. We will definitely visit again

Best chippy in town by far! Great quality food every time I go in and competitively priced! Won't go to another in town.

Expected much more, very average 😐

The veggie haggis is disgusting wet mush in a tray, I have never seen it severed like that in a chippy it was not nice, so wet and mushy, looked nothing like veggie haggis either, i usually love veggie haggis but i couldnt eat this. He had fish and chips, with curry sauce and a sausage, he enjoyed his, my chips were OK. The onion rings were disappointing. I'm local and wont be back.

Lättsam restaurang och mycket god fisk and ships om du gillar det! Be om extra sås. Trevlig personal och även mat för avhämtning.

I think I ate the best Fish’n’Chips of my life! The fish was battered incredibly well; the chips too were super good..

Super delicious fish and chip supper, thank you!

We ate here twice during a short holiday to Scottish Highlands. Fabulous fish and chips. We had the regular portion, which was plenty. Tried the haddock and the cod, both lovely. Hot, fresh, clean tables and great chips. All good.

Ordered large haddock and a small haddock both with chips mushy peas and 2 iron bru , £38 , the large haddock was not a large just 2 pieces that were thin peas tasted burnt , sorry but not a great experience and very expensive for what you get

Best fish and chips I’ve ever had! Well worth a visit in Oban!

Great fish and chips but expensive

It was as delicious as it was praised. The best fish and chips I've ever had. However, I can't say the same for the staff. It didn't make much sense that they brought the bill in a rude tone as if we hadn't finished our drinks and we hadn't even asked for it.

Great fish and chips. Cooked fresh to order.

Definitely one of the best fish and chips I had throughout Scotland. I was in oban two days and I ate here twice. Fresh fish, really good tartar sauce. Fast service

Was looking forward to having the best food from this chip shop today. It didn't happen 😕

We were first in, so lacking a bit of atmosphere, but that was soon put right as other customers arrived. The haddock and chips......out of this world, truely, delicious!!

Had been waiting for amazing fish and chips and found it here!

Such a lovely place, a local joint. The young lady who took our order is very friendly and efficient. We ordered the haggis, halibut and chips. Everything is great, the food came out piping hot and crispy. The breading is thin and fish is fresh. This place is a gem!

It's gone down in my opinion, previously had a great fish supper from here, but recently had obviously reheated chips and scrapings also the fish batter was chewy rather than crispy. I find it bizarre that you can't order a takeaway tea with your fish and chips when they serve tea in the sit in cafe.

The salt and pepper squid was really nice. The restaurant can be quite busy sometimes but the atmosphere here was quite nice for a fish and chips shop.

The best fish n chips by far! The prime haddock was so fresh and delicious and the batter so crispy,keeping the fish in the right texture!! Def we recommend it!!don’t miss that place ! Staff are soooo friendly Congrats folks ,you are doing amazing job! Thank you We will be back for sure !!

It has been many years since I last ate here. Last week we had a late ferry back to Oban and wanted something quick for dinner. We ordered fish teas and were not disappointed. Haddock, chips, mushy peas, bread and butter and a pot of tea. Lovely light crispy batter, tasty chips and yummy mushy peas. Everything was perfect.

Lovely fresh fish and chips. Reasonably priced and lots of different options. Gets busy in the evenings but you can eat in or takeaway.

Utter rubbish for premium prices, chips weren’t cooked properly but more Importantly the cod would have been the cheapest they bought. It wasn’t even white, it was brown and the batter was soggy. Save your money, oh and the must peas looked so bad that I daren’t go near them!

I had the fish tea special. Beautifully cooked fish, perfect chips. Generous portions. My husband had the chowder which was wonderful.

A little pricey but good food and good service

Without question, Oban's No 1 fish and chip shop & restaurant. There are 3 chip shops to choose from and this one's the furthest walk from the harbour , but it's definitely the one to sample. There is a small restaurant at the back and whether it's eat in or take away, you'll enjoy a real local feast. The chips and other fried foods (Cod, Haddock, Chicken and Haggis etc) are always freshly fried and not held in a warm counter for long periods of time. Service is ok too, although you will probably have to wait for 15 minutes at busy times (because it's all fried to order). Fridays are the crazy shift because traditionally, people in the UK would eat fish (a passover from more religious times). The queues may go out the door and along the street, but don't be tempted from walking to the next shop as you'll be missing out on the Best 'chippy' or as we say ' fish-supper'

Fabulous hot chips, highly recommend and love that you get offered vinegar on your chips in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

It’s a busy place. And you get big portions the food was not bad a little greasy but I have definitely had worse

Being a vegan I was eager to try the ‘vegetarian’ chips and they literally are delicious and the best I’ve ever had. Cooked to crisp golden perfection. I Very highly recommend them.

Want fabulous fresh food then go no further. Smells great, fast service and good value for money. I had the Scampi and it was terrific. Friend had the Fish tea and the other had the Veggie Haggis. Each dish was well presented and delicious. Three happy diners who would go back if we had been in the area for a few more days. Well worth a visit and if you don't have time to sit in you can get the same food to take away.

Not the largest portions ever, not the cheapest but definitely the most tasty and perfectly cooked

Very overpriced, okay food. £19 for 4 scallops, one of which was much smaller than the others. Chips were undercooked, service was not great- definitely not 3rd best in the UK

Over rated and vastly over priced. Certainly not worth the hype. Rick Steins taste buds must be on the wane if he thinks these are the tastiest. Chips were decent but fish was average at best. Portion sizes are large.

Quite a disappointment to be honest, the chips were really undercooked and the price was extortionate! The scallops were good, but not worth £19!?! Madness. We also had were served by the grumpiest waiter in the world.

It has “3rd best fish & chips in Scotland” on the window. All I can say is it was average, we got the fish & chips tea which included fish, chips, mushy peas, bread & butter and a cup of tea, we ate it because we’d just arrived from Glasgow but it wasn’t the best. Service was quick & friendly but asking for a 5-20% tip was a joke, it’s not the U.S! I have never been asked to tip anywhere in the UK let alone a fast food place and they wanted the tip on top of the £17.50 per person 🤦🏻‍♀️

Great fish and chips. Service was everything you needed. Great to sit in and enjoy our food

Main point to take from my visit here was disappointing! I watched the food come out the fryers fresh, but when opening containers no more than 5 minutes later, discovered the fish was overcooked/dry, yet the batter was very soggy and flavourless, and chips were incredibly greasy and sticking to the box. Expected better. Also to add...very almost £20 for a fish supper of this poor quality is FAR too expensive.

Well cooked good portions of tasty fresh fish.

The food was actually very tasty. The service was by far the worst I have ever had to endure. Conclusion: if you want to eat delicious food: gladly. If you want friendly service: definitely not

Great food, can be a wait for it but worth it

bonjour très bon restaurant nous avons pris du saumons les serveuses nous ont très bien servie avec le sourire de la part des bretons

The place is as welcoming as the staff. Few seats but take-away possible until late (at least for Scottish times). The fish & chips and the Oban Bay Chowder are excellent. in my opinion the best fish & chips eaten in Scotland

Very decent fish and chips here, but not the best I've ever had. Firstly the place was very busy, and there is not a huge amount of room. Obviously they are maximising their available space. We both had haddock and chips. Fish was very good, in a light and crispy batter. Chips cooked very well. Worth a visit if you are in Oban.

We loved it. Fish as good a FNQLD AUSTRALIA. and that is saying something

Great quality fish and chips. You can tell it's a local success as the queue was big even on a Wednesday evening. Chip portions are a bit small compared to other fish and chip restaurants down South, but the quality was good. It was not a cheap meal but worth the cost.

May be the best fish and chips I've ever had. Such light and crispy batter on my haddock and awesome chunky chips.

Best fish & chips ever. Absolutely lovely

Excellent fish and chips! We took the hake and sole as these were local products, unlike the cod and haddock that come from Norway. The shop has a website so you can already check online what you want to eat. Very reasonable prices and if you choose the takeaway option it is quite cheap actually. Downside: we decided to dine-in and the two people who looked after us did not know what “smiling” meant. Service needs to be improved.

Great wasnt over priced got a fair amount for your money

Delicious fish and chips place in Oban. I ordered local king scallops, 18 pounds for 4 scallops, and my portion’s big. Love it!

Came in there pretty late and they were already preparing to close but they took pity on me and my starving friends and one guy immediately prepared some fish and chips for us. We were well sated, happy, and really thankful. And the fish tasted nice as well!

Very good but not at all welcoming, it's the chain. I ate there, they just didn't throw the plate on the table. Too bad.

Great quality fish and chips, quick and friendly table service, my daughter enjoyed the kids menu

The fish & chips are average at best and overpriced at that. Service is straight up rude, not even greeting or thanking back.

1 portion of undercooked chips was £4.60 .1 mushy peas which were lovely £ 1.80 .but the gravy is an abomination. Just water with an oxo cube .vile .overpriced and over rated .go to nories .

Ate super delicious fish and chips there, freshly prepared, service very accommodating, got a seat inside ;-)
