The Captain’s Table in Aberdeenshire

The Captains Table is absolutely brilliant. The staff are so attentive and Sam is amazing at serving and engaging with you. Thoroughly recommend the Cajun Chicken and the Sticky Toffee Pudding!

Amazing food, the team at the restaurant were so friendly and welcoming. The best meal we’d had in a very long time. The restaurant was very clean and decorated fantastically.

Had a great time. The food was tasty, and the owners were a delight. Will definitely be going again.

We took my daughter and son-in-law to The Captain's Table as a treat - a first visit for all 4 of us. We each had a main course and dessert and 8 clean plates showed the food was delicious. The fish and langoustines were the stars of the show but the puds were equally good. The restaurant and toilets were squeaky clean with loads of sanitiser and good spacing between tables. We had a great welcome and happy banter throughout our visit and will definitely be back. Well done the Masson family.

A fortuitous cancellation allowed us to book a table for two at short notice. What a great move. Food was fantastic, and fully justified stuffing in three courses each! Sam was our host and she’s so affable and relaxing and just puts a smile on your face. Had a lovely evening. Will definitely be back. Thank you.

Had great lunch yesterday - the langoustine salad was delicious as was the herb crusted halibut which my cousin had. All followed by lovely trifle. Really nice friendly hosts, very Covid compliant and a great wee place.

Great, friendly staff and excellent seafood. The langoustine cocktail was beautifully fresh and the fish and chips delicious.

Wow so glad we came here for our lunch. The langustinen were amazingly tasty - fresh,huge and so very tasty. We also had the Cullen skink - again beautiful and clearly home made and fresh. The fish and chips - wonderful - and the service and ambience so friendly thank you to Sam for entertaining us, and recommending the cheese cake pudding - another lovely homemade dish.

We popped in after a visit to the Museum of Lighthouses. This family run restaurant is lovely. A small but well presented menu. We all had seafood; langoustine cocktail, scallops and mussels. They were all really fresh and excellent. Again, visiting during Covid-19 so both the restaurant and the toilets were super clean, and geared towards social distancing. Definitely recommend this cosy eaterie ... and the staff banter is supreme!

We just had a fantastic takeaway from the captains's table, which we eat overlooking the surf beach in Fraserburgh.The langoustine cocktail consisted of 14 shelled langoustines in a marie rose sauce and lettuce/ cucumber. The scallops- 4 large with roe.. Rolled lemon sole in a tasty cheese sauce with mustard mash and peas. Luckily we had our own knife and forks. Highly recommend.

The service for takeaway is as exceptional as it is for sitting in, the food has been excellent every time we have had a delivery.I personally can’t wait for the opportunity to get back inside the Captains Table and sincerely hope that they will be well supported as a local business.

Extremely friendly and brilliant service. Speedy takeaway delivered. Garlic mushroom toast was superb and langoustine salad was very fresh. Thank you so much.

This restaurant delivers superb food every time we go there. The service is friendly and cannot do enough to make the experience a good one. Deserts are to die for!

Have dined at TCT many times now and never left unsatisfied or disappointed, the staff are friendly and very flexible with the dishes, nothing is too much bother but from a dining perspective the produce is always of a high quality and very well prepared.

Excellent restaurant. Really enjoy going here as the atmosphere is so friendly. Top service from all staff.

We had an excellent meal. My husband had scallops with pork belly for starter and then seafood pasta.I had coronation chicken salad for starter and halibut fillet with pernod cream, it was delicious. The service was excellent and staff really friendly. Cannot wait to go back.

We had lunch at The Captain's Table. 2 courses. Excellent sea food. Friendly and excellent staff, very good service. Recommends!

First class meal tonight. The Burns chicken/ haggis with rice and drambuie sauce was the best chicken dish I’ve had anywhere. Well done, again😍

friendly staff. Good selection of seafood served in nice clean premises. I would return again and recommend this restaurent to my friends as a nice place to go for a meal.

I dined here last night with my work colleagues as part of our Christmas night out. The meal was excellent, everyone enjoyed there food. Staff were great, friendly and very efficient, nice surroundings and decore, thoroughly recommend you give this restaurant a try.

What a friendly little gem of a place this find is. Very friendly staff, good sense of humour. Food great. Thank you.

Another lovely lunch at The Captain’s Table. The battered haddock, chips, mushy peas and tartare sauce were amazing and the staff very welcoming and friendly. If in Fraserburgh, you must pay a visit!

We became aware of this little gem from its Tripadvisor ratings and made our first visit in October. We are an extended family group who visit at this time every year. The menu choices were excellent and cooking and presentation on the evening was just as good. We were all looked after royally and service on the night perfect.

Another great visit here. For starter i had camembert, which was exactly how id want it with a gooey centre, for main i had breaded haddock, excellent, first time id tried tartare sauce too (i thought i didnt like tartare sauce but this one looked so good i thought id try it), and it was so nice. The pudding i had was also great. My dad and husband also both loved their meals they had. Our 8 year old daughter had 'the best time ever' and wants back for her birthday and next time we go out for a meal. She had macaroni with garlic bread which she loved and then ice cream which she also enjoyed. We couldnt fault a thing. Thanks again for everything, especially keeping Alexa entertained when she had ants in her pants. xx

What a friendly little restaurant, which serves really fresh fish of all kinds! Staff were really helpful and chatty and the food was beautifully cooked.

We had lunch in the Captain’s Table and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. We had crab balls which weren’t on the menu that day, but they made it for us anyway. They were yummy. The seafood starter was excellent. We weren’t very hungry to decided to skip mains and had a pudding. Delicious too.

We cannot praise or recommend The Captain's Table high enough.

Where do we start with this review ?

Looked through the window and saw a well presented restaurant, went in and met by friendly staff. The menu had a good selection of meals to choose from. I have never tasted such a fine fish selection a good portion size and full of flavour.

Food was second to none. Fresh,tasty and delicious. We are all picky in our own way. Prawn cocktail - my brother nearly licked the bowl. Mums Cullen skink very hot just the way she likes it. My smoked haddock and poached egg perfect. Mains wonderful. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

First time here and it won’t be our last. Setting, service, food and thoughtful extras throughout. The only disappointment was when it was over. #comingback #5star

Having stayed only 20 miles away from this restaurant I can’t believe this is my first visit, It certainly won’t be my last!

We stayed overnight in St. Combs on our tour and decided to come to Fraserburgh for dinner. Fortunately we stumbled upon this lovely little restaurant with excellent management. Friendly and nice staff and always ready to welcome customers.

We were given this recommendation from a helpful staff member at the Lighthouse Museum.

Never fails to disappoint. Had an excellent meal here tonight, great service from start right to end of service, great restaurant to dine in if you can.

Loved the food amazing service and really helpful staff and amazing food best ever in fraserburgh love the staff

Visited with my husband and dog for lunch. I had lentil soup followed by breaded haddock and my husband the Cullen skink and battered haddock. All the food was tasty and portions were large.

Food to die for, Staff so attentive and friendly, surroundings clean and inviting with a very relaxed atmosphere.

been a few times now with friends we meet midweek for lunch and have yet to find fault with either food or staff - nothing is too much trouble - they cater for our dietary needs and let us sit and yap when we are done - no rush to get us out the door - if you havent been then go!

We went as most reviews looked good. How very disappointing.....we had the Halibut with veg...the fish was edible but could have done with a sauce as a wee bit dry....potatoes were unedable and broccoli too as way overcooked. Told the young waiter who just laughed!!!! Disgusted with that not an apology or a discount will never go back

non aspettatevi il classico Pub, cio' nonostante il locale e' molto carino e rinnovato di recente. abbiamo preso cose molto semplici e tutte ottime.

Lovely place with friendly staff,though extremely slow service and extortionate drink prices, food lovely

Friendly staff. Awesome battered fish and chips and lobster pot. The sticky toffee pudding is so good it should not be legal. Huge loss for you if you pass this place by.

Maybe we chose the wrong evening to visit. We got the impression that the staff had either to undergo any training or had forgotten it.

Had a truly fantastic meal at The Captains Table at the weekend.

Personale gentile, ottimo cibo ad un prezzo ragionevole, locale pulito, specialmente impressionato in senso favorevole dalla cura e pulizia dei servizi (che spesso invece sono il punto dolente).

Friendly service, exceptional choice of fresh fish dishes, lobster pot langoustine cocktail, surf and turf with lobster tail. Tasty sweets

We just had a delicious meal at the captains table. Could not fault it. Lobster pots x 2, herring in oatmeal, fish cakes, lemon meringue cheesecake and a knicker bocker glory. Lovely friendly relaxed atmosphere with very helpful staff. I love that it is a family run business with a great ethos to support other local businesses by using locally sourced ingredients and services.

Food simple yet tasty, we had great starters, delicious home made mains (monkfish Thai green curry and smoked haddock fish cakes) great range of gins, desserts fantastic - butterscotch cheesecake homemade and the fudge sundae using local ice cream top quality. Attentive responive staff and some lovely touches. Different hand washes and moisturisers in the bathroom, baby wipes in the baby changing area and free sanitary protection. Modern and inclusive. Really worth a visit and anywhere popular with locals is a sign of doing something right. If you are in the area visit. Visit now!

We were recommended The Captains Table by friends, so decided to visit, what a great place, excellent food - very, very good menu, and this is coming from someone who grew up surrounded by amazing sea food; plus the cheesecake was delicious! Great service; the staff were very friendly and accommodating to us and our shouty baby; half way through our meal they produced several toy sea creatures to help entertain him!

An exciting menu with very fresh and delicious food. Excellent seafood, Scottish classics, appetizers and ice creams. I wish I was still in Scotland so I could return again and again. The family who runs the restaurant are wonderful. Dad catches the fish. Mum and daughters welcome and serve clients and the son is the inventive chef.

Wir hatten einen rundum schönen Abend im The Captain‘s Table.

We booked a Birthday Meal for our mum (9 of us) as she really enjoys fresh seafood. Can not emphasise enough just how fresh and delicious all that was served was!. I believe the owners husband has his very own fishing boat and supplies all that is on the main coarse so cannot get fresher than this and having never been frozen a huge difference in taste and quality! From fresh Haddock to Prawns and all other fish and seafood i would go as far as to say the very best i have tried. I personally had the surf and turf the Scallops were to die for, superb taste and just literally melted in your mouth! The service was superb, sweets gorgeous and again they do superb Cullen Skink so for all fish and seafood lovers out there give the Captaind Table a try! You certainly will NOT be dissapointed!

Third visit to the captains Table , this time for a family gathering , food is Amazing , staff go over and above to accommodate you , such a friendly relaxing place , would highly recommend 🤗

Very friendly staff and excellent food. Good Value. No complaints, thank you. Will go back in the future.

Can not recommend highly enough, food is excellent, halibut was exceptional and the fish cakes are always perfect. The desserts are brilliant.

Una comida para olvidar. Ofrecen un gratinado de langosta que ni está gratinado ni tiene langosta. Carta pretenciosa .

Our first visit, but won't be the last !!! Excellent service from a young team, food superb, setting perfect, cleanliness 1st class. What more can I say. Even if you are in the near vicinity of Fraserburgh make a de-tour as you won't be disappointed. Thanks to all your wonderful staff that was a dinner we won't forget. Will be back for sure.... so see you before January [remember our chat] :o) keep up the excellent service, as well above par in the NE corner.

My wife and I last visited early june when we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Das äussere Erscheinungsbild war nicht sonderlich einladend. Aber dann innen, modern, frisch und schön dekoriert. Das Essen war toll. Frischer Fisch, sehr gut präsentiert und schmeckte gut. Dankeschön.

First time at The Captain's Table but we'll be back. Great dishes making the most of local seafood, superb service from Sam & Jane who are absolute stars. Loved it.

Best food in Scotland. I had the Halibut, and that ws just as a halibut shall be (not all shefs know how to cook halibut). . Great service. If you are in Fraserburg, this is the place to go.

We have had the nicest food around north Aberdeenshire in a homely setting, have been on celebration dinners which have delighted family and friends, casual suppers and romantic meals for two, captains table is excellent imo on all fronts. Everything is fresh, homemade and locally sourced. Scallops with steak and home made chips were amazing

Excellent lunch enjoyed today, we will definitely be back, very friendly knowledgeable staff and the chef took time to speak to us at our table.

Accueil chaleureux de bon produits pudding délicieux. Chaise bébé dispo. A noter toilettes d une propreté rare pratique quand doit changer un bébé

I have been here a couple of times and always get the gluten-free battered haddock- tasty food and friendly staff.

We had supper here yesterday. Husband had fish and chips and I had fish cakes. The blue cheese sauce was to die for. Absolutely first class food and service. Can’t recommend this place enough. Will be back for Sunday lunch in two weeks time.

Dinner with friends. Had heard good things about this restaurant but was my first visit. It certainly won’t be my last. The food is a delight with many locally sourced ingredients and beautifully presented. The staff are superb and so friendly. Five stars all the way.

Loved the smoked haddock cheesy cakes! We loved that you use local products! Very friendly staff!!!!

House hunting in Fraserburgh and it was getting near lunchtime. Came across this restaurant by chance and had a quick look at the reviews before going in. Staff were very pleasant and courteous. We both had the fish n chips and were glad we did. The fish really was the freshest I’ve tasted in a long time and I only buy my fish direct from the fish houses in Aberdeen. The chips were consistent in quality and taste. We shouldn’t have, but did, we ordered a sweet. I ordered the meringue with strawberries and cream. This too was delicious. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and will definitely be back. Thank you for a lovely lunch. Unfortunately, I forgot to take photos as I started eating and it was all gone before I realised

Came here for Sunday lunch and got amazing food served by a lovely, welcoming waitress.

The food was absolutely amazing! And what’s even better was the service. Extremely friendly waitress and owner with the Scottish banter that I’ve been craving. Definitely will come back and try the dinner menu.

Went for Saturday lunch, fish cakes and sticky toffee pudding were amazing. Service was brilliant from knowledgeable and attentive staff. Wonderful welcoming family run restaurant who take great pride with their dishes and service. Locally sourced ingredients. Lovely decor.

The food. Let me tell you! The haddock fish and chips is something to behold. Massive fish and tasted beautiful. I alsao had the oreo cheese cake which was delicious. The staff were amazing, so friendly and welcoming. Childrens menu was very varied and offered genourus portions of veggies.

Lovely bright welcoming restaurant, friendly service and fabulous food. Nothing was too much trouble for Sam our server we were in close to closing and even though we were last to leave we never felt under pressure to leave. Definitely worth a visit. The scallop starter was cooked to perfection and the langoustine salad was so fresh and tasty. Highly recommended

Visited for lunch on a Saturday it was quiet but very welcoming. Chose a table and was attended to instantly. The restaurant is spotless as are the toilets. Staff members were so attentive and extremely friendly. Lunch menu was condensed but still great choices to make. Our food arrived and was really excellent, homecooked but still had a degree of finesse too. Can't wait to go back and try the evening menu. Great to find such a great place.

In all the years we have been visiting Fraserburgh we could never understand why there wasn’t a fish restaurant. Well now there is and it is simply amazing. All the staff that we met, including the chef who came out of the kitchen to deliver food, went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with everything. A recurrent theme was ‘our mum would kill us if we...’ Well mum, you needn’t worry, killing is not necessary. Your kids are very talented and you should be proud of them. The service, the food...oh the food! Turbot, haddock, scallops, lobster pots it was all delicious and beautifully cooked and presented. We returned for a lunch time meal before heading back to London because we were so impressed with everything. We loved the way the loos were kitted out with anything you might need (these things matter.) Next time we are in Fraserburgh, we’ll definitely be back. thank you

We enjoy fish and seafood, and I had imagined that dinner here would top off a special day out to Fraserburgh, given that its a fishing port. I did not ask, but I suspect that the fish was largely frozen, perhaps in dishes microwaved to order.

Amazing food, very friendly and helpful service (daughters doing really well whilst owners / parents living it up in Thailand). Can’t recommend high enough. If we’re ever back in Fraserburgh there is no doubt where we’ll be eating. Thanks for a great meal. The Jessies

An update to my last review, have had a few family meals here now, and everything has been excellent. My favourite restaurant in the town. But my circumstances have changed, I am now gluten intolerant, and was wanting to book a meal with the family, but knew I needed to see if suitable for me. But not a problem in the slightest. The staff, which I see as friends now, were very helpful, listened to what happened to me, and Josh took time to explain, what could be altered for me no problem at all, which to be completely honest was a lot of the menu, including a couple of puddings, so one very happy customer, that can continue to go to my favourite place in town xxx ❤️❤️

Wonderful establishment, super fresh food. The biggest and best prawn cocktail ever. Great food and wonderful staff.

Fantastic restaurant so lucky to have found it as we were on holiday. Food fantastic staff where so friendly each and everyone of them spoke to us. Service was fast full stars. Cannot wait to go back again.?

First visit and I’m sure it won’t be the last. Our friends booked a table for us while we were up visiting my mum. From the second we entered till the time we left the service was first class. The captains table serves the most exclusive gastronomic delights with the freshest of ingredients. A fantastic experience was had by all. Happy first birthday and here’s to much more.

Took my parents here for my mum's birthday and I have to say, everything was fantastic. The fish was all extremely fresh and very well cooked. The halibut was delicious. The batter on the haddock was light and crispy. Veg was fresh and tasty. Staff were extremely welcoming and friendly. Prices were reasonable. I'll definitely be back.

Been a few times now, always good. Consistent standards of service, food and cleanliness. Menu always interesting and varied and the freshness and taste is epic. Highly recommend. I just saw another review saying its dog friendly too, I didn't know that.

Booked a meal for 12 to celebrate my grans 80th birthday. Everyone enjoyed everything they had to eat no complaints. Something for everyone on the menu. Staff all excellent even gave my gran a birthday card. Excellent food will definitely be back.

On a day trip in Fraserburgh and we were looking for a dog friendly restaurant for lunch.

Excellent fresh food that everyone enjoyed and hood value for money. lovely friendly staff. Will be again soon.

My wife and I had another great meal at The Captain's Table.

Asking at Kinnaird Head Lighthouse Museum for recommendations of local restuarants ( specialising Fish preferably) we were directed to The Captains Table. ... Just in time for them opening for the evening.

Absolutely lovely food. Attentive and friendly staff....A must visit .... Langoustine cocktail.....smoked haddock fish cakes (my choice to leave the chips off)..wanted room for dessert...Eton mess to finish off.

We have been here for 3 family meals, and it was really really good. Food absolutely perfect each time, and staff very very welcoming and spot on. Was due to the first two visits that my son wanted to go there for his 18th. They couldn’t have been better, they were very attentive and made us feel like part of them, and made the visit perfect. Treated my son perfectly and very accommodating. Can’t wait to go again xxx ❤️❤️

Excellent accueil, très bonne cuisine, les plats sont très bien préparés et très bien présentés, le pudding est délicieux. Très bon rapport qualité prix. Mérite le détour.

Wir hatten wirklich sehr leckeren frischen Fisch. Der Fishcake war jedoch nicht sonderlich gut und ist nicht zu empfehlen. Das Ambiente könnte auch etwas gemütlicher sein. Das Personal war allerdings sehr freundlich und das Essen ansonsten wie gesagt sehr gut. Nur hätten auch die Portionen etwas größer sein können.

Had a great family meal last week massive thanks to Sam for letting Alex help make her ice cream 🍨 treat always fantastic fresh made food will be back again soon xx

First visit tonight. Wow!! Langoustines cocktails outstanding.. A meal in itself. Haddock chips and peas with homemade tartare sauce spectacular.. Service very welcoming and friendly..

Had lunch here today and All I can say is it was FANTASTIC absolutely loved it staff were pleasant too

Very friendly and helpful owners, fish is fresh out the sea und very well prepared, come here and get yourself a good meal!

Took a trip today just to visit this restaurant based on the reviews and it was amazing, not only was the place immaculate the staff was brilliant too and we had a good laugh and made to feel relaxed and at home, as for the food it was top quality from the garlic mushroom starter to the haddock and cheese fish cakes. Thank you very much for making our last day visiting relatives memorable

Yet again. This resteraunt never fails. The food is amazing. Prawns you will never taste anywhere else. Halibut in cheese sauce. What can i say. Wow! That sauce was amazing. The staff are so attentive. Can not reccomend this place enough.
