The veggie haggis is disgusting wet mush in a tray, I have never seen it severed like that in a chippy it was not nice, so wet and mushy, looked nothing like veggie haggis either, i usually love veggie haggis but i couldnt eat this. He had fish and chips, with curry sauce and a sausage, he enjoyed his, my chips were OK. The onion rings were disappointing. I'm local and wont be back.

It was as delicious as it was praised. The best fish and chips I've ever had. However, I can't say the same for the staff. It didn't make much sense that they brought the bill in a rude tone as if we hadn't finished our drinks and we hadn't even asked for it.

Such a lovely place, a local joint. The young lady who took our order is very friendly and efficient. We ordered the haggis, halibut and chips. Everything is great, the food came out piping hot and crispy. The breading is thin and fish is fresh. This place is a gem!

It's gone down in my opinion, previously had a great fish supper from here, but recently had obviously reheated chips and scrapings also the fish batter was chewy rather than crispy. I find it bizarre that you can't order a takeaway tea with your fish and chips when they serve tea in the sit in cafe.

It has been many years since I last ate here. Last week we had a late ferry back to Oban and wanted something quick for dinner. We ordered fish teas and were not disappointed. Haddock, chips, mushy peas, bread and butter and a pot of tea. Lovely light crispy batter, tasty chips and yummy mushy peas. Everything was perfect.

Utter rubbish for premium prices, chips weren’t cooked properly but more Importantly the cod would have been the cheapest they bought. It wasn’t even white, it was brown and the batter was soggy. Save your money, oh and the must peas looked so bad that I daren’t go near them!

Without question, Oban's No 1 fish and chip shop & restaurant. There are 3 chip shops to choose from and this one's the furthest walk from the harbour , but it's definitely the one to sample. There is a small restaurant at the back and whether it's eat in or take away, you'll enjoy a real local feast. The chips and other fried foods (Cod, Haddock, Chicken and Haggis etc) are always freshly fried and not held in a warm counter for long periods of time. Service is ok too, although you will probably have to wait for 15 minutes at busy times (because it's all fried to order). Fridays are the crazy shift because traditionally, people in the UK would eat fish (a passover from more religious times). The queues may go out the door and along the street, but don't be tempted from walking to the next shop as you'll be missing out on the Best 'chippy' or as we say ' fish-supper'

Over rated and vastly over priced. Certainly not worth the hype. Rick Steins taste buds must be on the wane if he thinks these are the tastiest. Chips were decent but fish was average at best. Portion sizes are large.

It has “3rd best fish & chips in Scotland” on the window. All I can say is it was average, we got the fish & chips tea which included fish, chips, mushy peas, bread & butter and a cup of tea, we ate it because we’d just arrived from Glasgow but it wasn’t the best. Service was quick & friendly but asking for a 5-20% tip was a joke, it’s not the U.S! I have never been asked to tip anywhere in the UK let alone a fast food place and they wanted the tip on top of the £17.50 per person 🤦🏻♀️

Main point to take from my visit here was disappointing! I watched the food come out the fryers fresh, but when opening containers no more than 5 minutes later, discovered the fish was overcooked/dry, yet the batter was very soggy and flavourless, and chips were incredibly greasy and sticking to the box. Expected better. Also to add...very almost £20 for a fish supper of this poor quality is FAR too expensive.

Very decent fish and chips here, but not the best I've ever had. Firstly the place was very busy, and there is not a huge amount of room. Obviously they are maximising their available space. We both had haddock and chips. Fish was very good, in a light and crispy batter. Chips cooked very well. Worth a visit if you are in Oban.

Great quality fish and chips. You can tell it's a local success as the queue was big even on a Wednesday evening. Chip portions are a bit small compared to other fish and chip restaurants down South, but the quality was good. It was not a cheap meal but worth the cost.

Excellent fish and chips! We took the hake and sole as these were local products, unlike the cod and haddock that come from Norway. The shop has a website so you can already check online what you want to eat. Very reasonable prices and if you choose the takeaway option it is quite cheap actually. Downside: we decided to dine-in and the two people who looked after us did not know what “smiling” meant. Service needs to be improved.

How this place can use the words 'Rick Stein' is beyond me. Had take away from here last and they were inedible. Served by a young lad who spent more time on his food (no hygiene standards here), who has obviously never been taught customer service or even how to speak properly to customers, we got the greasiest undercooked overpriced fish and chips we've ever had. The curry sauce and gravy had the consistency of diarroeah and curry powder and the copius amounts of watered down vinegar didn't even make it edible! Please don't sit on the back of a review from over 10 years ago. I'm sure Rick Stein wouldn't be impressed being associated with such an awful place.

Let me start by saying that for what it is famous for, i.e. fish and chips, it is good. If you are looking for something that is not fried it is quite difficult also because it is not always specified whether the dish is breaded or not so it is better to ask. The salt and pepper calamari is fried and heavy.

This place earns the best chippy reviews in this part of the West Coast for all the right reasons: superbly fresh cod prepared perfectly prepared by friendly and fast staff. The filets were wonderfully moist, wed to a batter as airy and light as many a tempura master could strive for. Among the top 3 fish-and-chips I have had in my decades of fish eating and professionally cooking in 5 states in the US.

The best fish and chips we’ve ever had! I took my family and dog here for lunch, and left full and very happy. Top quality fish, light and crispy batter on the perfectly cooked haddock, good house made tartar sauce and mushy peas, and crispy chips with no grease at all. My wife and I had the Fish Tea, thick haddock, chips, mushy peas, tartar sauce, bread, lurpak butter, and pot of tea for £17.50 each. A good price for the level of quality. My 6 year old had the kids meal large sausage, chips, drink and ice lolly for £7.50. Again the sausage was good quality, he loved it and devoured the lot (apart from a few chips - big portion for a 6 year old). It’s so good to see a chippy turning out this kind of quality for a reasonable price (especially when you look at alternative restaurants). If you’re stopping in Oban you won’t be disappointed.

Be careful that the seated price is different from the "take away" price, even if you are going to eat the same thing. We took a classic fish & chip to the dock and ate it while the seagulls watched. The food is very good, and the tartar sauce is amazing (and I don't usually like them), but the service was a little rough and bland.

I call it Debbie's place - you'll know it when you see it! - said several of the locals on Islay. A large group of us visiting the island had spent the morning dotted across it doing various different activities. I'd asked in the brilliant Islay Natural History Trust where locally we could grab lunch and was directed to the Bruichladdich Mini Market. The place itself is run by Debbie, her mum and her sister. It's the ort of place that is the lifeblood of islands the world over - half grocery shop, half cafe - all welcoming. Debbie's sister was in charge when a group of 15 of us rocked up unannounced. This would normally not have been a problem - plenty of outside seating - but that particular day the ferry had been cancelled, along with much of the stock for the shop and cafe. Undeterred the staff there made us feel welcome and pulled together a lunch which went down very well with all - children and adults alike. Think sandwiches and toasties with great coffee and a good choice of cold drinks. They also serve some amazing cakes - I'm told the rocky road was fab, I know the chocolate cake was! Although initially under pressure when we all turned up, the staff seated us happily and we had all eaten within about 15 minutes of arriving.

Visited to celebrate a friend’s birthday. The setting on the shore of Loch Fyne overlooking the ruin of Castle Lachlan is stunning and we were able to enjoy a bottle of fizz outside our shepherds huts where we would be spending the night. After a late afternoon stroll to the castle ruins we were ready for our dinner. The tasting menu served in the evening is locally sourced and is probably the best I have ever tasted. We chose the wine pairing which was excellent and presented beautifully. After a great nights sleep breakfast is delivered to your accommodation and this is another delight. Cannot fault this place
