I found this restaurant listed on the 'Find me GF' app and when I found out gluten free crayfish and sweetcorn fritters were on offer I had to go and they did not disappoint. The fritters are a must try and the fish and chips were delicious. I highly recommend and I would return again. Staff, food and the views were all brilliant.

As a restaurant that specialises in seafood, my seafood platter wasn’t the best. I ordered a seafood for one. The lobster was lovely, but the rest was just deep fried, bulked up with a bowl of chips. While it did almost contain what the menu listed (missed the smoked mackerel). It still didn’t give that WOW factor. The salt/pepper squid was greasy, the fish had soggy batter that I scrapped off, fish cake was again very deep fried. My wife had the fish & chips, she also left all batter for the same reason. They did deduct £10 off the bill, but we’ll not be back.

We’ve always loved going here however yesterday was an experience I wouldn’t wish to repeat! Firstly you are left queuing outside with zero acknowledgement . Foreigners push past and just walk in ? They were told to wait outside until 12 it wasn’t very polite - but then neither were they! Did they think we were standing outside the door for the fun of it? At least we were polite and quietly waited for 15 minutes! We were the first in the door and told they needed the table back by 13.10? It was 12 when they open for lunch (although they’re already open from serving breakfast ) You then have to sit waiting to be served, your order is taken. The starter and the main course arrives simultaneously? Ok that wouldn’t be an issue if your main course was a cold salad - but a soup starter and fish and chips arriving at the same time is really not acceptable ! The soup was chowder which we had asked could the potato be removed we were told no! Actually it could be easily removed it was large hard lumps! Pic below easily viewable chunks of potato! The crusty bread? Severely lacking crustyness eaten but nothing special! By the time the fish and chips were started they were going cold! The sea food platter hmm the fish cake (a round ball) was over powered by dill . The salt and pepper squid / calamari was ok just exceptionally chewy. The half fish was good the lobster was challenging to crack open and took several attempts. We were asked if everything was ok a few times - I kinda live by if you don’t have anything nice to say - say nothing! I paid the 10% service charge included in the bill but felt incredibly ripped off because there really wasn’t any service to speak of! £70 and you’re expected to be out within an hour . (I can understand why “service” is included I doubt anyone would pay a tip for their “service”! Starter and main course arriving at the same time? Did we feel comfortable? Absolutely not ! Welcome ? No not at all rather an inconvenience to them . Were they fully booked ? There were table’s available, people arriving & seated that had not booked a table either ! Never had any issues eating here in the past but definitely will not be going back again! Shocking!

Went for breakfast and had a strange experience with the service. There was a mistake in the order (4 dishes arrived instead of 5), a gluten free mixup and we sent one dish back as the eggs were incredibly dry. Mistakes happen, but while they were sorting out the errors, the staff continued to make strange remarks about how they like dry eggs, or implying that we’d made a different order and how they wrote down something different. At one point the side of bacon we ordered was delivered with a suspicious side eye, as if it was a trick. It wasn’t that they were rude, it was just that they made the whole thing incredibly awkward, even as we were finishing the meal one server came over to bring it up again. One of us never did get the meal we originally ordered, but we just accepted it eventually as everyone else had finished their breakfast by this point. All this was while a huge family with kids screamed and made a fuss around us. Not ideal. The food was fine, but not worth the effort and atmosphere.

I was in North Berwick for the weekend and left this morning to go back to my home in Ayrshire. I went to the Rocketeer Restaurant this morning for a cooked breakfast before I hit the road and It could not have been any better. 10/10. I arrived at the Rocketeer at 10:58/10:59, after walking out of another local hotel/bistro called "number 12" because they can't cook a cooked breakfast properly. Anyway that is not too important for my review. I was advised at the Rocketeer by the delightful lady who greeted me, that the breakfast finished at 11:00am but I was right on the cut off and I knew exactly what I wanted to order. I did not need a menu. I asked simply if it was cooked to order (it was) and could they squeeze another one out for me!? She very politely and gracefully accepted my order. I had a coffee and a full cooked breakfast. It was delicious. Everything was cooked to order, nothing seemed to be produced from a warming oven which makes a massive difference to a cooked breakfast. If I am ever in North Berwick again I will be trying lunch and dinner here not to mention another full cooked breakfast. It was honestly amazing. My dogs were given a couple of treats each without me asking for them. I was asked if I wanted a bowl of water for them. I did and it was brought for them. I was also brought a glass of water without asking for it. The price for a breakfast was £9.95 or so. The same price as the aforementioned "number 12". At "number 12" I gave my dogs the sausage, left the rest on the plate and went to tell them I was leaving. At the Rocketeer Restaurant I ate every single piece of it and it was outstanding. Do yourself a favour and get down to the Rocketeer if you are in North Berwick. You will not regret it. Thanks guys, very much appreciated.

Takeaway - had the seafood platter - half a lobster, (very) small half battered fish , some calamari and a fish cake. Came with a large portion of chips, which were ok and their own sauces. Lobster was very good, as was the battered fish, tasted very fresh. Wasn’t so keen on the squid and the fish cake was also a little small. £35, ok value for a takeaway box, probably. Would go again I think but probably just have the half lobster.

There’s a lot that I can forgive with an experience eating out. Like the time I sat at a cafe for 45 minutes, asking more than once where my food was only to find they had repeatedly forgotten. Mistakes happen. But being lied to is when I write a bad review online. I placed a take away order for a half grilled lobster. Was told the wait was 30-35 minutes. At 45 minutes I asked how much longer it might be. Was told they would check however I got no update. At one hour I asked if I could be refunded and explained it’s not a big deal and I understand they’re busy. The server asked me hold on a minute. I heard lots of questions being asked in the kitchen about where the food was. Turns out the half lobster had been prepared and forgotten about. Another server then told me that my food had “been sitting there for ages” so they were putting on a fresh lobster for me. When I opened the box of food, it was clearly not fresh. Was a really unfortunate experience. Just glad I didn’t have my kids with me. I would have been better off with a £4 salmon fillet from Tesco. The dishonesty was completely unnecessary. Update: to keep this very brief, I returned today with a voucher for a half lobster as promised. When someone goes back after a bad experience, staff should be kind to them, not resentful and accusatory. It’s that simple. I was made to feel most unwelcome by the staff. Makes absolutely no sense… I cannot recommend that anyone eat here. What an awful experience.

Es cierto que el precio es alto, pero estaba rica, y eso, acompañado de las vistas al final hay que pagarlo. El fish and chips espectacular( masa fina y nada aceitosa), sopa de pescado bien cargada de pescado. En resumen, parada más que recomendable en el muy recomendable North Berwick

We visited today for takeaway fish and chips. There was a wait for the food but that was absolutely fine and we were told how long it would be. The fish and chips were priced at £13.50 each so we paid £27 for two portions which is quite steep but absolutely fine if good quality and plenty of food. First of all, they were in packed well in a box, with a tub of tartare sauce, with knife and fork and a serviette. Both the fish and chips looked really lovely however we were immediately struck by how few chips there were! The fish was an ‘ok’ size but not great but it truly was a tiny portion of chips! No matter how good the quality, a portion that size was absolutely not worth £13.50. Thankfully, they did at least taste very nice. The fish was good quality and the batter tasty, flavoursome and not greasy and soggy at all - really nice. The chips, also were very, very nice indeed - just a shame there were so few of them. The tartare sauce was absolutely beautiful though and a very good addition. We’d definitely return when in the area IF the portion sizes, particularly the chips, were increased. However, even though the food was really good, we wouldn’t go back for the same portion size as we left hungry and I don’t think you should spend £27 on takeaway fish and chips to leave hungry. It could have been so much better, it actually could have been perfect if the portion wasn’t so mean!

Worth the wait! Food was excellent: tasty and plentiful. We had to wait a while before being seated, and then for our order to be taken and food to arrive. However, staff were friendly and helpful when they got to us. The menu was seafood based, and I had the chowder which was delicious. I then had salt and pepper squid, which was perfectly cooked and seasoned, and served with equally perfectly cooked chips. Others had the battered fish, which appeared like a golden cloud on the plate.

The food and the views at the restaurant were enjoyable. However, I was dissatisfied with the service. I dined at 3 o’clock, having already had my lunch earlier. I ordered a SINGLE Fish and Chips, a fact my boyfriend can attest to. But the waitress misunderstood my order and brought a whole Fish and Chips instead. I pointed out the mistake as soon as the food arrived, but the waitress refused to acknowledge the error. Despite not eating any chips, I ended up paying an extra 5 pounds. It was a very disappointing experience. Also, I couldn’t help but question if there was potential bias against us, just because we are Asian. We were not offered any water, nor were we asked if we needed any. Yet, the table next to us was served tap water. This discrepancy in service was concerning. Re: Firstly, I did not mention that I didn't need water, yet the waitress didn't ask. Before I ordered, I asked one of the waiters about the difference between a single fish and a whole fish and chips. The waiter informed me that the single fish and chips does not come with chips. Despite ordering the single fish, I was served the whole fish and chips and was charged an extra 5 pounds. Furthermore, I noticed from another comment that there is a service charge. The waitress did not provide me with a receipt when I paid. Had I known about the service charge, I would have definitely refused to pay it!

We (family of four) went for a late lunch at The Rocketeer Restaurant after a Wildlife catamaran cruise at the Scottish Seabird Centre which is next door to The Rocketeer Restaurant. The super friendly and lovely staff were able to get a table for us within a few minutes during a busy period and the food was delicious. So delicious in fact that I am adding a segment of our dining experience in one of my travel vlogs on YouTube and my family have insisted that we make another trip (from London) to Scotland we and must stop at North Berwick for a meal at The Rocketeer. We had the seafood platter to sample various dishes, the fish and chips and some chowder. Everything we tried was great and the chowder is hands down the best we have ever had - and we have had our fair share of seafood around the globe. Very highly recommended and we will definitely be making another 400 mile journey to Scotland and stopping off for some chowder in 2024 too.

Amazing fish and chips (I recommend the breaded fish!) with a fantastic view of the sea. We visited on a stormy day and it was incredible to be cosy eating lovely food with such dramatic weather all around us. The staff were great and so kind and thoughtful. Delicious food in a truly unique, comfortable setting.

Very nice place for lunch by the sea. The restaurant has a particular shape (central square for the kitchen and amenities with the tables located on the entire periphery with large bay windows), all the tables have a view of the sea which is very pleasant (beautiful landscape in addition to protection from the wind and cold ;)). We enjoyed a good dish of fish and seafood (lobster :)) at the height of freshness (we witnessed deliveries of freshly caught lobsters!). Note that we took a dish intended for two people which we shared with 3 without feeling shortchanged! The smoked fish soup is also of high quality! The place is a little cramped but that doesn't matter and the service remains very efficient and friendly.

Endroit très sympa pour déjeuner en bord de mer. Le restaurant ayant une forme particulière (carré central pour la cuisine et commodités avec les tables situées sur toute la périphérie disposant de grande baies vitrée), toutes les tables ont vue sur la mer ce qui est très agréable (beau paysage en plus de protéger du vent et du froid ;)). Nous nous sommes régalés d'un bon plat de poissons et produits de la mer (homard :)) au summum de la fraicheur (nous avons été témoins des livraisons de homards juste pêchés !). A noter que nous avons pris un plat prévu pour deux personnes que nous avons partagé à 3 sans nous sentir lésés ! La soupe de poisson fumé est également de grande qualité ! L'endroit est un peu exigüe du coup mais cela n'est pas gênant et le service reste très efficace et sympathique.

Tried to get dinner here this evening and on entering an empty restaurant before 5 we were told they had no space for sit in only take away. Explained it was my birthday so take away wouldn't have worked and was told well you should have booked. Bit of a rude attitude, ended up in No12 instead and had a lovely meal. On walking past later the restaurant still looked half empty. Strange attitude to have towards guests.

Disappointed. Went for a coffee at 11.45 on a rainy Tuesday in February. Treated with hostility and told we could have 15 minutes. An empty restaurant. Asked for a scone and got a sneer. Didn’t stay. Was planning to come for a lobster tea on Saturday with visitors. Won’t come now. Got fantastic coffee and scone and friendly welcome at the Seabird centre so we didn’t suffer too much.

Rude no other word for it . Very disappointed in the way I was spoken to . All for the sake of an “Omelette” . Middle February. Quiet . Plus in my mind what is the difference between cooking an Omelette and Scambled egg.

The best gluten free fish and chips I have ever had! Honestly I can't fault it. The fish was so light and delicate and the batter was just scummy, again light and not greasy at all. I was diagnosed in 2005 and haven't had this kind of experience of gluten free fish in years. Honestly the best. The restaurant itself is wonderful and so interesting!!

Beautiful setting overlooking the beach, attentive and friendly staff and food is beautiful. Had the chowder to start with, then the baked cod which was cooked to perfection. Husband had the salt and pepper squid then rice pudding with baked plums was delicious. Will be back for sure.

Sorry, saw this in Scotland Tourist info as rated in the top 5 seafood shacks in Scotland. Chips were tasteless, fish was burnt and tasteless and salmon was certainly not like any hot smoked salmon I have eaten before. We have been to all the others in the list and they are kings compared to this.

came here from dunbar tonight and im so glad we did everything in hot box looked very appealing we didnt know what we wanted. settled on our choice of meals for 3 adults and a kids meal it was very reasonably priced. food was still piping hot by time we got back home and was absolutely delicious. we have deffo found our new chippy. the ones in Dunbar are very pale in comparison foodwise. service was friendly and fast and you felt your custom was appreciated. love the family vibe i got as well im assuming it was all family but just a great atmosphere and service.

Exceptional chip shop in the centre of Gullane that also offers pizzas and kebabs. We had fish and chips on our first night, they were to die for. All freshly cooked to order and very well priced. We also had pizza and calzone on another visit Again all freshly made and served by very friendly staff. Highly recommend.
