Great place to get Fish & Chips. Quality is excellent and staff really nice. We visit every time, when in Aviemore. Take away or in-dining available.

Fantastic Fish & Chips for takeaway, amazing Tartare sauce too. Not cheap but very good quality made them more value for money.

We dine here all the time, and I can honestly say it's the best fish and chips you'll ever get!! I eaten at many places and to date this place serves the best!! And when you dine in, you get 2 pieces of fish, they are so generous on their servings. Great staff as well that serve you and nice modern and clean toilets!!

Not what it used to be but still a half descent chippy, quite expensive although I don't mind paying the high price for the cleanliness and hygiene that is evident. Used to have awesome mince pies but been taken off the menu now 😔

At Avimore, in the heart of Scotland"s mountainous Cairngorm Natural Park there is never a shortage of visitors, among many other things they demand, sometimes, their ration of the classic "fish and chips" (fried fish and chips). Having local children because even this happens to you. Before that goes to the most famous of the main street, which everyone talks to and everyone goes. And that"s Smiffy"s, clean, attentive, fast and with first-rate products that even the most detractors of this British product will have to shut up a little. Good product and place where much more is sold than fish and chips, among which we find haburguesas, haggis and similar products.

It clearly deserves its title as the best Fish & Chips in the Highlands. The portions served are VERY generous and everything is super good! Excellent value for money. If you're looking for a place where the fries are as pretty as they are good and where the average piece of breaded haddock is the size of a child's forearm, don't hesitate!

Not my first visit to this incredible place, but a first for my lunch partner. I had the fabulous Cullen skink and he had Langoustines both were delicious!! Not my first and certainly not my last.
