Spotted from above and couldn’t resist. I wasn’t disappointed! The oysters were deliciously fresh. I’ll be thinking about them for years to come, i’m sure! Yummy!

Delicious food, nice service, cool location, but you won't get full here. I was here with my wife and we ordered the mixed seafood bowl and shrimp with two cola. The food was really tasty, but unfortunately you can't eat 6-8 shrimps and a slice of bread without a side dish like rice, potatoes or pasta. For €48 it was expensive fun.

Considering where it’s located, haddock was a little disappointing. Haddock wrap we had felt more like a salad wrap with some fish in it. Nice and relaxed place though.

Lovely oysters and langustines had at the seafood shack today 🦪 Servers were lovely and chill music playing as we enjoyed our food along with some gin - will be back to try the haddock which looked amazing 🐟

Very decent seafood joint with great fresh seafood - try the langoustines if possible or any of their special dishes daily. Prices range from £12-20 for their seafood dishes which is somewhat reasonable. Dining experience however could be better as compared to other cafes in the area with proper dining facilities (indoor dining/sink/toilet) or jaw dropping views over the loch which unfortunately Seafood Shack doesn’t have. However you can always get a takeaway and head to your favourite spot to slurp your seafood but bear in mind the potential mess from all the shellfish!

Was looking forward to this as we didn't make it last time we were in Ullapool but I'm afraid we were disappointed, staff and location lovely but not so the food. The Langoustes were nice but the sides not so much and my wife had the Trout which was very disappointing and she didn't eat it. Expected more for the price if I'm honest, maybe we caught them on a bad day.

Worth the hype. Usually these shacks are a hit or a miss, and this one is a hit. Good ingredients, simple food - but done just right. We had 5 different dishes and they were all delicious. I also recommend getting the cookbook they published, it might cheaper on Amazon, but it’s nice to buy it in the actual place. Recommended.

Seafood Shack wsa the best we found for food in northwest Scotland. We had the battered haccock wrap, and the spicy fish soup, both of which were fantastic. The soup was particularly incredible, almost like a blend between Cullen skink and Thai Khao Soi. Prices are surprisingly good, and the ambiance was perfect (we also had great weather, which helped).

A very nice spot in the always wonderful Ullapool with the best langoustine I have had in some time - really fresh, sweet and perfectly cooked. Very good other bits and pieces too in the "box of the day" including a cracking oyster and cold-soused herring. Shame about the single booze option (gin with seafood??) and the unsmiling/terrified staff. A warm greeting with a big smile, and the option of a glass of white wine or some stout would have made it perfect.

This is a food truck restaurant located in downtown Ullapool. The menu seems to change every time, and we had garlic shrimp and crab dishes. It's worth eating at least once because the atmosphere of eating outdoors is nice, but it's a shame that the amount of food is small. I see that most customers eat the fish and chips wrap, so it seems to be a popular menu item.

This place was so good that we stopped there twice in the span of three days. It started out with a yummy haddock wrap that powered us through a 28 kilometre trek through the fisher fields. Then, after being slightly chilled by 60 mph winds on top of a Munro, we stopped by again for some local seafood chowder. It is safe to say that the cold was immediately swept away and replaced with tip to top warmth. Cannot recommend this place enough!
