Super tasty chip shop grub located on the seafront. I ordered the double battered sausages and chips with a side of haggis. Food was really lovely & all cooked fresh to order. Pleasant staff here too. I'll be back for more when next in the area.

October 2024 update: decided to give them another chance. My bottle of diet iron bru was flat checked the label out of date last month. Chicken katsu loaded fries came in a small box and were cold and at £9.50 are a total rip off, worth £6 max if they were warm. Food quality is excellent. Value for money has went downhill. The chicken breast strips used to be decent sized pieces now they resemble chicken fingers. I’d rather pay more and keep a high standard of product than cutting the size of the portion.

I am really, really disappointed. This is the 3rd time out of 5 in about 7 weeks that the food has been sub-par . First bad experience. Burnt black haloumi chips. Complained, sent photo. No response. 2nd time fish overcooked. Holiday season understandably v busy. But locals will be here all seasons. Tonight. Fish lovely hot, flaky. Chips.....cold, rubbery like not freshly cooked. I mean surely consistency is the answer to being an award winning chippie?

Disappointing that they didn't have cod. Could only taste the batter and oil with the Haddock. Don't understand how this is the best in Scotland. They should try Oban or even Moma Frank's in Gourock

Was there on Saturday afternoon.I ordered a haddock supper the fish was tasty but extremely small six small bites and it was finished the chips were in two clumps all stuck together. If this is what the industry thinks is the best I give in. Going forward I will go the extra miles and go to the wee hurrie in Troon

Had haddock and chips, big fish plenty of chips,it's take away or they have tables and chairs on the promenade that you can sit on or use the council benches facing the Clyde.opens at 12.00 noon at the moment, the fish suppers are brilliant huge fish in crispy batter.the carpark beside the promenade is now pay and display and at the moment payment is by card at the machine,there are three machines to get your ticket from.the carpark that I use beside the fish works is also close to the toilets,if coming down to Largs check if there is any events on,like the Viking event as Largs becomes very busy, one time that I was down during the Viking festival the carpark was being used for displays and there were stalls so please check online for Whats on in Largs,there are other carparks but I would think that they would be busy, or you could take the train or bus and save the worry of finding parking.

Great food polite staff and chips on beach whats not to like. Tonights meal crab and chips, squid, sausages and chips all cooked perfectly served by polite young team and owner was in the kitchen supper nice people. Guys its not cheep but it is GOOD. With the cost of living it is to be expected if you want to keep places as good as this open then prices to cover all the high cost are required. Only down side is the council need try harder to stop the aerial attack its relentless. Culls are controversial but then so is a 3 year old getting attacked whilst eating. So atmosphere is a problem but everything else is wonderfull.

I have to say we didn't get the best of this place, assuming they had a bad day when we went. Really looking forward to it so were very disappointed The fish was overcooked and dry. And pretty tasteless. They didn't have cod either. The mushy peas were no better. Over done and dehydrated.

Really friendly and helpful staff, lovely wee building. Fish was well cooked and the batter was nice and crispy. Chips were perfect as well. Wee wedge of lemon chucked in. Good choice on the menu too. Everything cooked to order as well and the fish allowed to drain properly (which so many chippies don't bother with). Really lovely place. Would've been four stars but for a couple of things. Food was way over-salted, would be much better if customers could do their own salt & vinegar. I also thought the portions were a bit small for the price. It wasn't the cheapest but the chip portions were tiny and the fish was only ok in size, not huge. Otherwise, really enjoyed it. Will definitely be back.

A very good place to eat fish & chips because it is fresh fish and a good portion. If you want tartar sauce you have to buy it separately. There isn't much space if you want to consume right there. Plus, it is outdoors and it depends on the weather that you don't get rained on. The service is acceptable. Recommended if you want to eat fresh fish.

I can see why it was voted number one in Scotland. Cooked to order and, therefore, piping hot. Staff are friendly and efficient and the product is absolutely splendid. I am in my eighties and I cannot recall ever enjoying haddock and chips more than these and that isn't because my memory is failing! Well done everyone involved - the accolade is well deserved. We have eaten in some of the English award winners and The Fish Works is better! Bill C

Second time now we've had fish suppers from The Fish Works, and again they've knocked it out the park! The batter was light & not greasy, the fish (we had the Haddock) was thick, juicy & cooked to perfection. And just the right amount of chips. I really recommend their homemade tartare sauce also, lovely light and tangy, a perfect addition to the fish supper. It really does beat the other fish and chip shops by miles, definitely worth every penny.

I have been to a few places that say they do the best fish & chips, wasn't expecting anything spectacular. These were some of the best I had ever eaten, and what was really impressive was that it must have been at the end of the busiest day of the year so far. Tasty, non-greasy, fish and chips and some impressive veggie options.

I am not a fan of fish and chips at all, far too often they’re greasy, flavourless, lack in all flavour of fish and chips. The fish works however, absolutely brilliant ! A generous portion of haddock over a bed of beautiful chips - and the best thing: absolutely no grease left on the bottom at all. Served with a lovely house made tartar sauce and mushy peas, with lashings of salt and vinegar and a lemon wedge on top. Serviced by 3 wonderful young members of polite, well mannered staff, and best of all - a smile. We ate by the bay, a lovely environment, with even lovelier food. Worth mentioning, the pricing, a large fish supper, tartar sauce, mushy peas, 2 cans of sweet nectar (Iron Bru), and another portion of chips - £21.20, fantastic value for money. I could not recommend The Fish Works highly enough, thank you to your wonderful, cheery staff!

Asked if fish was cooked separately. Young man serving me understood I was asking if the sausage meats were cooked in the same oil. Advised that panko breadcrumbed fish is cooked separately and would avoid cross contamination. Deeply appreciated the guidance. Food was fabulous and cooked to perfection. Easily the best fish n chips we've had in decades. The price was ridiculously cheap for the quality of food on display. Highly recommend when visiting Largs 😍😍

Visited Largs recently and had a fish n chips and curry sauce. Firstly, to order you need to go inside and squeeze past the sacks of potatoes and between the two tables to get to the counter. Then you are instructed to stand outside in the wet n windy summers day and wait for you number to be called. Despite being ‘cooked to order’ it had no freshness about it. The chips are described as twice cooked which they definitely were and resembled chips that had already been fully cooked left to go cold and then refried to heat up leaving them hard and chewy on the outside with almost nothing left inside. The fish batter was very dark (over cooked) and again suspect was ‘twice cooked’. Peeling the batter off the fish was coated in oil and that was all that I could taste. The curry sauce was like a generic Chinese sauce but was overly thick and grainy. Over priced, terrible ordering routine and the food did not meet expectations.

Seafront Fish & Chips - rude not to? Fish was perfectly cooked, batter crispy and crunchy, plus the lemon wedge added the extra zing that makes the difference. Chips were crisp outside and fluffy inside. We had a great Fish (Haddock) Supper, great Haggis Fritters & they even do a dog-sausage for a couple of quid. The best views out onto the Clyde & ferry terminal, to watch the world go by whilst enjoying the good food 🎣 … carpark is a few strides away, for those days (like today) when you need to take shelter!

Amazing location on the prom in Largs. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about gluten free. Made sure that I got the proper condiments in addition to my gluten free fish & chips. It was the best fish & chips I've had since discovering I have celiac. I had no reactions afterwards. I had heard the seagulls were bad, but we had no issue. The fish was fresh, the batter was crispy and not greasy. I'm an American so I don't have the same feeling towards chips that the rest of my party did, but they liked them quite well. I was so thrilled with the fish that the chips were an after thought for me. I found them to be very tasty as well.
