Sammy's Fish and Chip Shop in Highland

Tasty fresh fish, I recommend it

Lovely fish supper, had to wait in a queue as it's always busy because the food is really good.

Ordered Haddock and Chips. Service was friendly but the haddock was average and the chips lacked flavor (below average). If you’re stopping in definitely ask for salt and vinegar and get extra salt and vinegar to add on top in order to give it flavor.

The shop had just opened. I was third in the queue. I ordered a fish supper and single steak pie. Fish batter was chewy and under seasoned. Chips were stale and dry. Steak Pie was undercooked, with the pastry partly raw. Possibly the worst carry out ever.

Hi. Friendly and so efficient. Service with a smile. My second visit in 4 days. Great fish, good peas. Good chips. Just wish there were more of them. Thanks for letting my dog in to wait with me. I'll be back.

Because the chips were just that good, fluffy, crispy, tasty without an ounce of greasiness at all - truly perfect chips ! Haggis was pretty average but not fair to judge a fish and chip shop on something they buy in rather than make so five stars it is Life affirming chips ! Rob

Not bad quality a large chips I would consider a normal size

We went out of our way to drive over for GF fish and chips - something that is rarely possible with 2 coeliacs in the family. We tried calling ahead to confirm it was possible, as had been recommended, and no one ever answered the phone. When we arrived they said they weren’t willing to do a gluten free order for at least 2 hours till after 7pm. We were left with no dinner option for our young family and sitting in 30 min of traffic to get back into Ft William because of a big traffic jam. A massive disappointment.

Very good takeaway fish and chips and was made fresh.

Was here a few years back ,was excellent then Not now unfortunately Chips were obviously from night before,rock hard and very small portion Steak pie pastry was still white not cooked properly Thought the ladies cooking would have had there hair tied back instead of hanging over the food Sorry very disappointed

Drove up from campsite at Glencoe got a fish supper sausage supper curry sauce mushy peas totally hit the spot a number system for customers that was good then sat at Neptune's stairs case to eat it fish was so tasty and the chips id go there again

Visited while in fort William today good food polite staff

Sammy's was an award winning chip shop and changed ownership. I've tried it a few times and although not as good as original Sammy's it was OK. Tried it last week and it was inedible. Fish looked decent size but inside the batter the fish was like mush and grey. Not even a reheated fish would have looked like this. I suggest poor quality fish. Sorry but unlikely to waste my money again.

Excellent fish and chips freshly made!

Food was tasty but the fish was slightly soggy and curry sauce was runny (18:00 on a Friday). Chips not bland (another review said they were). Service was great, friendly and fast.

Pleasantly surprised. Fish and chips were good and big portions. Nice young staff.

The best place to have fish 🐟 and 🍟 chips

Highly recommend!! Brilliant fish and chips, reasonable priced and the service is always good!

Went in to grab something to munch after a skate session and decided to grab a couple burgers and chips from Sammy's. Got my order taken pretty much right as I stepped through the door. Food was made promptly and the staff offered a variety of extras for my burger. Staff was very nice and friendly. Would recommend getting the seeded bun for the burger as my friend got the plain bun and it's just not the same.

Food is amazing for reasonable prices staff were so nice and got food out as fast as possible overall just a great place to go for some nice food

Spot on. Excellent no nonsense Fish and Chips. Exactly how a takeaway should be. Service was fast, everyone was pleasant.

Really looked forward to fish and chips but we felt disappointed The fish was thin and the batter salty. The chips were equally disappointing far too crispy and lacking body

Helpful staff but terrible food. Chips were not greasy but very bland and almost cold. Battered fish was probably the worst I’ve ever tasted. Batter was very greasy and it tasted like old oil, couldn’t eat it. Fish was an almost a grey colour like it was old. Should be white in colour. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Sweet peanuts are amazing.... Fish and chips are amazing

Sammy's is just outside Fort William, but worth the few minutes to get a quality fish supper. The chips weren't greasy, and the fish batter was crispy. The service was quick and friendly on a Friday night.

Nice crispy chips and the peas were also very nice, not greasy at all

The BEST local chip shop!! A local cop pointed us in the direction of this shop and I’m so thankful! These lovely ladies took pity on us crazy Americans who had just rolled into town right after they closed. They were kind enough to still serve us and the food was absolutely delicious!!

Maybe it’s a area thing ,felt we were slightly not wanted but then service warmed up and was great ,we do ask lots of unnecessary questions and it might get on some peoples nerves so we don’t mind really . Ordered a child’s meal for the misses and nearly got toy with it as well haha. Nice chips and fish cakes others had sausage fish also curry sauce is a must . Very British fish an chips in the motor during a storm , great holiday feel and alright price not even a tender for mine. Will return

Great chippy, we went whilst on holiday and had fish suppers and sausage suppers all enjoyed and would go again when in the area

Excellent local chippy, have a separate gluten free fryer too and excellent crispy battered fish :) We always visit here when we pass by

There don't seem to be many fish and chip shops around Fort William but this was the best rated so I thought I'd give it a try. Overall it was pretty good. The fish (haddock) was tasty - a decent size and crispy, it was cooked fresh to order. The chips were average; not a great amount of flavour and I would have expected a few more. Price was on the higher side but not too bad. They also have a sweet shop on site with a good selection. Parking outside was free.

Food is OK, came here while visiting fort william and had haddock and sausage and chips The haddock was the best sized piece of haddock I've had in a long time and the batter was tasty, Curry sauce did not taste like curry sauce still can't work out exactly what it tates off to be honest but it certaiy wasn't curry!!!! Sausage was not warm, And the servi e wasn't brillent but overall didn't go hungry so that's a bonus,

We phoned ahead for a gluten free fish and chips and were delighted with the meal which was fresh, tasty and very good value.

Arrived at 9.20 and they close at 9.30. They cooked me fresh fish and it was lovely.staff were very good and nothing was a bother to them.thank you and keep up the good work

Had a scotch pie supper from here and it was horrible they used to be best in fort willam but have went down hill since Sammy left which is a shame

Been gong here for the past two years and always got a batttered burger and let me tell you flawless. I enjoy every bite I take from their burgers

I've had to amend my review, it's under new management. it's food is still cooked really well and the service is friendly but 3 times I have driven from Loch Linnie caravan site only to find it is closed when online it states that it is open, very disappointing. Its got 2 stars because the food is nice if its open.

Freshly cooked Haddock in a delicious batter, perfectly done. 1 Large chips does two adults easily, and they're really good. Curry sauce is quite runny and a little pricey compared to everything else on the menu, but it does taste good. Definitely seems to be a local favourite.

This has to the the best chippy in Scotland, I came here 10 years ago and remembered how good they were, they haven't changed, we'll done for keeping the same standard, absolutely beautiful chips, gorgeous fish in crispy batter, cannot fault it at all, don't drive through Caol without going here,

Busy Friday night but service was good from friendly staff. Two fresh and perfectly cooked fish suppers wolfed down in jig time. One each!

Sammy's was recommended to me by locals, as the best place around Fort William for fish and chips. Sammy's came up with the goods.

Great food, and gluten free options which is a massive bonus.

Really nice portion of fish and chips, served promptly and politely. Nice batter, lovely chips and a decent sized serving. Fair price too. 😉

Lovely service and food. We had the scampi and enjoyed our meals.

Nice and clean, Food was excellent 👌

Great fresh fish & chips . Good value Great service

First time I've been to Sammys,very friendly and helpful staff, haddock in Scotland is the best and I had a lovely peice today, many thanks

Was staying in Fort William and saw Sammy's was recommended for its gluten free options. I travelled over and was not disapointed. They put the seperate fryer on for me and did a delicious gluten free fish and chips, certainly one of the nicest I've had. Thank you for the great service!

Bought a single fish. And was offered a few chips for free. Both wre amazing. Just got enough of my finger left to wrigt this. Yum yum

Wir waren uns unsicher, ob wir es überhaupt versuchen sollten aufgrund der unterschiedlichen Bewertungen, aber man denkt sich: die Locals mögen es. Wurden leider enttäuscht- lohnt sich nicht. Der Fisch wurde warmgehalten, die Chips waren lasch und haben nach altem Fett geschmeckt (leider komplett ohne Salz und Essig, obwohl es eigentlich drauf war, hat man kaum geschmeckt) Erspart es euch :)

Sorry, but not massively impressed. The pies are small, not many chips for the money, and the gravy was thin.

Used to be best chip shop in Fort William by far, but since it was sold it's gone down hill. The fish supper was actuall OK but black pudding seems to be much smaller and tasted very odd. Don't think it's just me, shop seems to be much quieter so looks like the locals feel the same.

We both had cheese burger suppers, chips were ok, cheese burgers were very poor, and had no cheese in them, despite asking for cheese burgers, had better at macdonalds, this one excellent award winning chippy has certainly gone down hill,

Excellent fish and chips, quick service, friendly staff. Perfect grub for after a good hike

Absolutely delicious fish, chips and mushy peas and the kindest most helpful and friendly staff. Definitely recommend, the fish was so tasty and the batter crunchy yet melt in the mouth. Portions perfect. We're so thankful we found this gem! If we lived here I'd be in here regularly.

Fresh and delicious fish and chips with curry sauce... AMAZING 👏

A nice little fish and chips shop. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Amazing chippy, if only my village chippy was this good, I'd be in food heaven, but after a 300 Mile journey from Bolton with a red pudding supper on my mind and my hubby after decent fish our prayers were answered, lovely staff the best chips and light crispy batter not greasy, delicious, we will be back. We found Sammys accidentally and so glad we did.

Avg. The fish was a bit soggy in the box. Nothing is cooked to order so that might be why chips were pretty stale and not nice. Smoked sausage was ok. It was ok. But I've surely had better. I'd probably try a different place next time.

the haggis was good , fish and chips werent bad but they werent battered enough , the pizza on the other hand was burnt , hard as a rock and inedible i nearly broke a tooth eating a few slices

A welcome find near to Ben Nevis holiday park. Delicious fish and chips and as a bonus the takeaway also has a sweet ship counter. We bought a couple of tubs of very tasty sweets and good value too.

We had gluten free fish and chips and they were soo good!!! They have a separate fryer and they were very careful to prevent cross contamination with gluten. 100% recommend

£28 for two sausage suppers and one chips and scampi...not only was the food expensive, the service was terrible... one older women on the fryer and a bunch of kids on the tills who looked like they had just been told off? The atmosphere was as awful as the dried up sausages...

Last night in Fort William and decided on a takeaway. Thought we'd give Sammy's a go as it was only 8 minutes from where we were staying. Not disappointed, haddock and chips supper boxes were excellent as was the battered sausage. The box kept the batter and chips crisp. All freshly prepared. Proper traditional chippy.

I lived next to Sammy’s shop for a week and saw people queuing up in abundance at the fish and chips shop, so I decided to try it and it was a very tasty experience with a very friendly and cheerful staff. I wish them the best. The fish is very tasty, fresh and delicious, and the quantity is large.

£10 for one fish in a fish supper

Lovely clean modern shop and nice fresh bone-free haddock with non-greasy chips. Very tasty and well worth the detour into Caol!

Very good fresh fish and chips, not greasy as they can sometimes be.

Fast and efficient. Very good quality

Great fish and more. If you love fish and chips (and more), this is the place. Don’t miss it! Carry out only. Candy shop onsite also! Delicious and inexpensive. Gluten free fried fish if preferred 👍🏻

Staff were friendly, food was OK.

Lovely and fresh food, very tasty. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Great food and the girls serving were amazing 😍

Вкусна храна с огромни порции. Има много персонал и добра организация. Няма къде да седнете, вземете си за вкъщи. Продават и разни сладки неща.

It's not a BAD place, but i personally felt it didn't live up to the hype and reviews online. Perhaps my local chippy isn't too bad after all. 🤔 Don't let my opinion put you off though.

Absolutely foul. I really don't know how the reviews are so high. Went based on that. I would rather of starved if this was the only place to eat knowing now and having bought from here. The fat needed changing black soot on the chips at first we thought they'd put pepper on the chips. It smelt awful and the sausage was rubbery. If I could give zero stars I would of done . I even took a photo it was so bad.

Had the cheeseburger supper with salad was cracking

Delicious chips and served quickly

Bardzo dobra ryba, pyszne frytki, steak pie był pyszny

Best fish & chips we had on our 10 day trip through Scotland! Our host recommended it and we followed his good advice.

Friendly local take away fish and chips in a smaller part of town. Recommended by our Airbnb host. Inexpensive too! If you want a restaurant experience this is not the place. If you prefer to do things like the locals then come here!

Sammy chipshop is OPEN. just visited on Sunday, got a lovely fish supper. And a decent price to boot. I travel for work, I can assure you, good food served here.

We really enjoyed our fish and chips or sausage and chips! We rang ahead due to gluten free and staff were extremely warm, friendly and helpful. All items were piping hot and high quality including excellent gluten free fish. Very handy for Neptune’s ladder fish supper. Recommend!

It's not my local chipper but still very good, 8 out of 10, it would have got a 9 if it wasn't for so many bones in the fish. Would go again though 👍

Not being a dine in place, we got take away! After an afternoon at the beach, on the drive out, we came right out at this chippy. Happenstance? Serendipity? Regardless, we went to Sammy's. Having a 3 year old with us who is fussy on food, we got fish and chips for the adults, and a jumbo hotdog for the 3 yr old! He damn near ate the whole hot dog! Success! And the fish and chips were great too! All's well that ends well!

Sammy's chippy is now under new ownership. Mega improvement. Tasty, fresh, good value, and great service.😁

Unfortunately unable to enjoy the food. Fish was full of bones, barely edible. Found ‘uncooked’ chicken in the chicken curry- the chips were ok. The service was also poor as they couldn’t work out what they were selling. Won’t be going back

Super Fish and chips. Haggis très bon. Les locaux s y bouscule, c est pas pour Rien. Bonne appétit. 😁

Sammy and his ladies are super nice people. They were incredibly helpful and provided us with the most amazing munchies experience - definitely a must go!

Super lecker ! Große Portionen und sehr nettes Personal. Es war köstlich und genau so wie wir es mögen ❣️

Wir waren pünktlich zur Öffnungszeit hier. Bestimmt 10 Einheimische mit uns. Wir bestellten Fish and Chips und haben das vor Ort auf einer Parkbank gegessen. Während des ganzen Verzehrs war der Laden nicht ein einziges Mal ohne Kundschaft. Geschmacklich war nichts auszusetzen aber auch kein Highlight.

Wir waren vor Geschäftsbeginn hier. Kein Mensch weit und breit, trotzdem beschlossen wir zu warten. Pünktlich zur Öffnungszeit wurde plötzlich der Parkplatz sehr voll und alle stürmten in den Laden. Wir auch. Fish and Chips bestellt und noch vor Ort auf einer Parkbank sitzend gegessen. Es war lecker. Knusprige Panade und der Fisch durch aber noch saftig. Die Pommes sehr große Stücke, aber ok und sehr lecker. Bis wir fertig gegessen hatten war der Laden nicht einmal ohne Kundschaft. Wer lecker Fish and Chips essen möchte, ist hier genau richtig.

The best gluten free fish and chips I've had yet. Phone ahead as it takes a bit longer.

lovely fish and chips best in Fort William

Kebabs were just microwaved from frozen and they just the wrap on an unclean surface

Place was full of locals, it was a delight. Fish and Chips as good as it gets.

Great fish & chips… incredibly welcoming for gluten free people. Made separately to the other food and bagged separately too. A huge win for people who can’t normally eat fish & chips!

Found this on our drive back home to Edinburgh after a trip to the beach. Amazing fish supper! Not too greasy, large portion, delicious and well priced. Not too long to wait as well. Rarely write reviews but it really was great fish and chips. Highly recommend.

Excellent in every way. Fish and chips were delicious, with large portion sizes. Gluten free was excellent. My wife hasn't eaten fish and chips for close to ten years since being diagnosed celiac - described it as 'heavenly'. In fact we came here because of the reputation for good gluten-free fish and chips, and that proved to be the case. Possibly the best fish and chips we've all ever had. Friendly owner and staff made it even better. Clearly they take pride in their work, and it shows. Definitely can highly recommend.

Not very good frozen fish when they can get some fresh fish, cold food not hot enough
