The Fishmarket in Edinburgh, City of

Fantastic place for a seafood platter. Will go again. Service was amazing too

Best fish and chips in Edinburgh

The server was wonderful, friendly & helpful. The restaurant is lovely, and the food was delicious!

Best fish and chips in Edinburgh!

Top food, very good location at the harbor and competent service. We had the fish platter and fish & chips with the shrimp cocktail. Were very excited

Really nice place. Not mant places do Cod Loin. Yes it's smaller in length but it's thicker and more tender and is the perfect way to serve Cod. Haddock is a traditional single fillet which is nice not the angel cut haddock and they do homemade mushy peas which I think is probably the only place in Scotland what does them

Great service and a fantastic selection of fish to choose from.

Excellent smoked haddock chowder followed by classic fish & chips. All very fresh and tasty with attentive and friendly service.

I’ll be honest, the fish and chips were really good, we really enjoyed them and the place is lovely. I don’t believe the hygiene rating for this place is accurate though. The cutlery had hair on it and did not look clean, and the waiter who swapped out cutlery was openly wiping his snot with his bare hands. Seeing that made me really regret having lunch here. It’s such a shame since the food was really good. If that’s going on in front of customers, I can’t imagine the hygiene standards in the kitchen. Would not recommend.

Absolutely cannot fault. Pricey, yes, but worth it. We went for standard fish supper (so, fish with chips), mushy peas and a single portion of haggis bonbons. Everything was steamin' hot, the fish was meaty and a reasonable portion of chips that were perfectly seasoned (few places get the salt:vinegar ratio correctly but he definitely did!) We ate them on the picnic benches outside with lovely, misty/harr-y views over the Firth of Forth. A short walk the tram stop (end of the line at Newhaven) and well worth the travel.

Such delicious and fresh fish with a stunning view of the Harbour. We were spoilt with beautiful weather on this autumn day.

The food is delicious. I recommend trying the fish and shrimp

Fish snack, nothing special. Fresh fish that tastes better elsewhere. You have to change your clothes afterwards because of the smell of grease, and the toilets aren't particularly clean.

Used to be really good but food quality and portion size has dramatically changed over the past few months

Very good food. Very good price and quality! Gladly again :)

Fast and friendly service, very good food & the location including the surroundings was really nice.

Lovely place with amazing foods, if you spend some days in Edinburgh you have to try it!

This is out favourite chippie in Scotland! We don’t live in Edinburgh but have driven all the way there just for the fishmarket. Love the. Monkfish, Crab Claws, Muscles and generally most things on the menu! So glad they extended the outside part to have the tables to sit and eat takeaway We have eaten inside in the restaurant too, which is nice as they have a few additional items in the menu.

Enjoyed the food and service here. Grateful to the service staff for being proactive helpful to the requests we had to handling our toddler. Well worth a visit but do make reservations beforehand.

Great spot overlooking Newhaven harbour and the Firth of Forth. Excellent menu with good options for non-fishy-fanatics (pure vegans might struggle for choice?) and great front of house team too. Worth the trip down (200m from the end of the tram line).

They cooked everything fresh. That’s taking time. However, it was a bit too long for outside the rush hour. We found the price/benefit rather high. Overall it was good, but we would go elsewhere next time.

Delicious seafood, nice view. Great choice for dinner!

The best fish & chip shop in edinburgh by far 👍

One of the best “fish & chips” I had so far. They have a great selection of fresh fish which you can get as starter or main. I can recommend trying both! They have a great outdoor terrace which offers great view over the Bay Area

Had a takeaway, really tasty. There wasn't a massive wait as the queue was low due to the timer off day.

Delicious food in this nice tent. Friendly staff and excellent prices.

Have had fish and chips here a few times in the past and it’s always been our favourite chippy ever but had it delivered today and it wasn’t as good as it used to be. Still good but when it’s not like it was it’s disappointing.

The haddock supper was gorgeous and such good value.

Two of us for Friday evening dinner. Great food and friendly service.

Just received a delivery through an uber order . Cod and chips . We joked about how fish n chips is the only takeaway that doesn’t taste better the 2nd day . Our delivery WAS a 2nd day takeaway. Chips weren’t fresh . Cold and clearly from last night . The cod was half the usual size and not fresh ,we order often . It’s been double fried everything has . When we phoned the restaurant the fact we ordered through über eats seemed to mean the restaurant was absolved of any blame . Do uber staff come in and make the food ?

Had a fish supper, was fantastic the batter was so crispy and the Fisk melted in the mouth

Just ok. Could be better. Food was average.

Top notch fish n chips restaurant that also does take away. Fish is fantastic, with lots of varieties, cooked in different ways and good sauces.

We went without a reservation on a lunch on Monday, and it was packed! Would definitely recommend reserving during summer and high peak times in general. The food was absolutely delicious, the staff was great and very helpful, my husband is vegan and they were able to find delicious alternatives for him as well (curry cauliflower for the win) Views on the Lighthouse were fantastic, cannot recommend this place enough!

Overpriced, fish not fresh and overall a sense of being taken for a ride. £14 for some squid rings was a complete rip off. There are far better fish and chip shops for locals and tourists to go to at much less cost. Nobody goes for deep fried lobster, monkfish etc and tend to go for haddock or cod and chips - standard chip shop fare so it’s a place built on hype by the internet and has become a con, in my opinion but we have seen this before many times.

If you are a fan of seafood, you must visit it. If you are in Edinburgh, the food is delicious and the place is nice. It has indoor and outdoor seating, but it requires a reservation. I came without a reservation and sat in the bar seating. The food is very, very delicious and the price is reasonable. The staff are very nice and helpful. If you are a fan of seafood, you must pass by if you are in Edinburgh. The food is delicious and the place is nice. There is indoor and outdoor seating, but you need a reservation.

I come here just to eat the mussels they’re so yummy

We loved it here! Delicious food, amazing service!

Good fish supper not quite the best I've had. House of bruar for example or Anstruher.

Billed as the best fish & chips in the world, according to BBC program How It's Made. The fish & chips are extremely tasty. We had a great time. Yet the fish & chips in Howth at Wrights score a full 10 out of 10.

I chose this particular place with the hope of trying Scottish lobster (but East Coast lobster was available). The entrance to the restaurant is quite unclear (first you have to choose the right entrance, one for takeaway food, another entrance to the restaurant, you have to press a button to enter). We came about half an hour after opening, the restaurant was full, so we had to wait 10 minutes for a table to become free. We were seated at the bar (but it was for the best as the barista saved the impression of this place both with service and cocktails) . The seafood was not bad, but the fries that came with them were not tasty and dry. It was the first time I spent £60 per person and left the restaurant hungry.

We had their fish and chips and prawn scampi. It was so good! Great service and warm atmosphere though it was a rainy day.

Best fish and chips I've ever had

Great food but extremey expensive, very noisy in the restaurant, £19 for fish & chips. Toilet could have been cleaner.

Their haddock and chips are the best I’ve had anywhere

Nice place, good food. Nice staff. Good local beer.

The best fish and chips I have eaten in the United Kingdom, the monkfish one is recommended, very delicious

Still served me and my friend at rhe last minute that they wanted to close, so we didnt starve that night :'D

Oyster and Fish and Chips - fresh from the Ocean 😉

one of the best places to eat in Edinburgh. we had oysters, soup and large fish and chips to share. everything was excellent

nice palace to stop have a tea and food

Sadly didn't get to eat here,but just wanted to say a big thankyou to whoever made up an ice pack for my eye,when I slipped close to your shop and badly bruised my eye.It made all the difference. So again a huge thankyou.

The picturesque setting in Newhaven, Scotland with small harbor and lighthouse. Taste buds set for good menu of seafood and other items. Takeaway service very good with umbrellas over outdoor seating.

For better hygiene, it's recommended to use tongs when handling food products like fish, as opposed to using gloves that have come into contact with various surfaces including the payment terminal and other items.

The food was incredibly delicious, freshly prepared, and the atmosphere was fantastic, thanks to the wonderful staff and the great soundtrack. I’d love to return and highly recommend it.

The fish and chips here were amazing! We came on a sunny day, and watching the sun set over the coast while enjoying our food was a great experience. One of the few places where you could eat your fish and chips without any sauces and not be a complete psychopath

We had haddock with chips for takeaway. No que for us and also the service was extra friendly. The fish was very tasty but the fries were soggy and not our taste. 1.5£ for the dips is a little bit too much for me. Still a recommendation for tasty fried fish.

The previous restaurant had better choice… expensive

My favourite chippie in Edinburgh without a doubt and certainly my first stop when friends visit. Beautiful harbour location can’t be beat and outdoor seating with heaters and umbrellas for half the section usually means we have somewhere comfy to enjoy the fish and chips. Takeaway: downside is you’ll often find quite a queue and that’s because everything is fresh and made to order. Would like to say the queue moves fast but I’ve definitely ended up waiting an hour in this line before - which can be unbareable on a sunny day as it heats up like a greenhouse. Pity they can’t make the pickup order system work. Staff are usually super busy and straight to the point (I would be too if I had to explain the menu to every tourist tbd) but great people overall. Food is simply amazing with perfect batter. Look no further for a prime fish and chips experience. Restaurant: pros - you don’t have to wait an hour in the greenshouse. Cons: somehow convinced the food doesn’t taste the same if it’s not in a paper box but might be my own biased. But seriously, somehow manage to triple what you end up spending next door with drinks, appetisers and all that getting involved.

Great for tourists, mediocre for locals! The Fishmarket’s prices have become ludicrous and the quality of the food is also not a good as it used to be. £7 for a small chowder with mostly potatoes? £14 for a supper?

Lovely on the terrace in the sun. Friendly staff. Only you come for the food. The fish is haddock...some mealy fish. The fries were dry and limp. Mayo very.nasty. In short, unfortunately not recommended. Which is a shame because we came here after a TV program 5 years ago... this is said to be the best fish and chips. Unfortunately we didn't find that. Brown sauce is not my thing

Great spot for some fish and chips with a wonderful view to enjoy while eating.

Beautifully decorated restaurant, great, fast and professional service and excellent fish and chips! I highly recommend it!

Visited the fishmarket with the family last night, the service was brilliant, the staff were so friendly and went above and beyond creating a me a chocolate sundae instead of a fruit one which made the evening for me. All six of us ordered different things on all courses and absolutely everything that arrived at the table not only looked delicious but also tasted delicious. I could happily have eaten anything on the menu it was all great. Although I forgot to photograph it my battered monkfish was so good. Would definitely return on future visits to Edinburgh and would recommend this restaurant highly to anyone who was coming here. Below in order is fried squid, fish sharing board, garlic prawns, special board seafood risotto, battered cod, regular battered haddock, chorizo scallops, 6 Langoustines, chocolate sundae, strawberries and cream with chocolate rubble and the pavlova

Food was amazing great smoked fish platter and mussles dish was fantastic

The service was fast and friendly, and the food was superb - the best fish we've had in a long time. Highly recommended. Easy to reach by Edinburgh tram to Newhaven.

Really good fish and chips. Booking essential if you want to sit in. Otherwise you can get takeaway and eat outside around the harbour and pier.

The fish and chips were delicious and the atmosphere was great, but the service could use some work.

The venue is located directly on Leith Harbour, with lovely views of the moored boats and the ocean. We ate à la carte, but Fishmarket also offers the "take away" option, with a large selection of products, all of great quality: the oysters were very fresh, caught that morning, and the fries were perfect, without being heavy. Luckily we found an Italian guy on the staff - very kind! - who was able to advise us and explain the menu well. The restaurant is clean and tidy. Great experience!

Food is really great, and the staff is very attentive and polite.

Best oysters! They deserve their own category. The mussels are gently bathed in an exquisite broth that doesn't rely on a overly garlicky background. Shouldn't be missed if you're visiting Edinburgh.

I had the most divine scallops and a mean mojito beforehand

I had monk fish and chips. It was fresh and delicious. The best fish&chips I had in Britain alongside The Wee Hurrie in Troon. Andy and rest of the stuff members were pleasant. I’ll definitely go back.

Definitely the place where seafood lovers should go..

Best fish and chips eaten in Scotland. Excellent Crispy fish with generous servings. Loved the view. Totally worth it. Excellent staff.

Our favourite restaurant in Edinburgh. The fried squid and grilled langoustines are especially delicious. Lovely views for a romantic dinner, and great service.

I love it: I go there every time before taking the bus to the airport (stop right next door). The portions are extra generous, and in good weather, it's a great lunch break! The haggis balls are delicious, the same goes for the fish. Many thanks

Good fish and chip…. Good seafood Great service

The Fishmarket is a bit far from the city center but still a good place to try. The fried squid with vietnamese sauce was fresh and delicious. Same goes to the fried battered haddock which came with fries and pea mush. The fresh oysters were amazing with the lemon, tabasco sauce and vinegar with onion. The fried shrimp and scallops were good too and came with fries. Was not able to have dessert as were so full from the appetizer and main course. Place is clean overlooking the sea and service was great.

The Fishmarket's take away queue was super long and now we know why 🍤🦪🥂🦐🦞🐟 Amazing food! And we felt like we were away on holiday with the atmosphere. Really a place we will visit again!

Great fish and chips. Well worth a visit..

One of the best fish and chips that we’ve ever had and the view was incredible - shout out to Pinja for the outstanding service. Perfect spot for anyone looking for Scotland’s freshest seafood

Outstanding Fish and Chips. Top 3 in Edinburgh 100%.

The fish and chips were really tasty, fish was fresh, peas were well seasoned, chips were crispy. I would strongly recommend that. Btw, the fried chicken was good as well. However this restaurant is always busy, you may need to reserve a table beforehand.

Incredibly great and well-seasoned seafood. I definitely recommend to visit. Calamari and battered cod amazing!

Best fish and chips around, but, far too expensive for what you get. Update: still great food, but portions are smaller. Still recommend.

To eat inside, reservations are essential. Excellent fish'n'chips in the pretty little port of Newhaven. Rather than sticking with a traditional haddock dish, why not try other specialties, such as crab legs? Yum. The chips aren't great, though. Snow pea puree is fun. A good address to know.

Very good fish & chips with different choices of fish so choice compared to the basic! Fair price compared to others and impeccable service!

Best fish & chips I've had for long, I took a supper, the fish is so good it's heaven in the mouth!

A beautiful and quiet place on the marina and beautiful for photography 🎥

Been to probably most places serving fish and chips carry out! Got to try it fresh fish basically straight from the boat it's that close to the fryer I swear it jumped straight in 🤣 yea that fresh ! Good portion of chips fresh also batter crispy perfect absolutely yummy 😋

Overpriced because of TV appearance server at till very obnoxious won't be back.

We were “recommended” by Netflix’s “Somebody feeds Phil” and were not disappointed! Very tasty oysters and my main course, catch of the day, pan-fried fish fillet with buttered potatoes and spinach, was also super tasty! Very nice service

Fish batter tasty. Chips Tasty. Queues very long and takes much longer than it should do for some fish and chips. Portions could be more consistent (one didn't have many chips)

Quite upset with my order this evening. I get the same thing regularly and for some reason tonight my kids portion came with my more chips than my large fish supper.

Amazing, delicious, and as fresh as seafood gets. Outdoor seating is nice as well. Definitely recommended.

The fish sticks are very delicious and the environment is beautiful. Lovely.

Food not as good as previous visits. Chip portions very small with some hard

Always a great fish supper here, served very quickly and food was perfectly fresh…. Highly recommend..

Loved it, second time here, wish we lived closer
