"We were trying to find a good spot to dine on a Monday (a difficult day to find food on Shetland) and our guide to us to this great place. The seafood was fresh and we were told the owner catches fish and brings it directly to the restaurant. Me and my family shared Mussels au natural – basically with just lemon juice and parsley, juicy and buttery pan-fried scallops, nicely flavored haddock fish cakes with fries and a fried mushroom, and a baked potato with corn. Everything was on point, except for the baked potato, which arrived cold and not so easy to enjoy. They were pretty busy though, so maybe the potato temperature fell by the wayside to fulfill so many orders."

Just the right place for good food. The location is is just by the water, so the views is amazing. Service is great.

Dropped by for fish and chips and some mussels with a friend as we were staying nearby. All the food was freshly prepared and the staff were friendly and efficient. We’ll worth a visit when in Shetland

This is a great chippy, with sit in and takeaway options. Their fish and chips are justifiably famous, with the fish being so fresh and tasty, and they serve so many other things too sea food of course and also chicken and burgers among others.

Slightly strange place, with table service finished at 6pm and takeaway 7pm. Maybe everybody eats/goes to bed early in Brae. Ended up eating our fish and chips from cardboard boxes in the car. The fish was tasty, but disintegrated from being touched, which made it...

Have seen and heard so many people talking about Frankie’s and decided that we had to try. And we were not disappointed, the fish and chips that we ordered was a nice size portion, and so tasty. Even sat on the balcony, so had fish and chips with a view. Would definitely recommend

On a brief vacation stay in the beautiful Shetland Islands we happened upon Frankies at lunch time and took a break to enjoy a delightful meal. The best haddock and smoked haddock we have ever had along with the home made mushy peas. Definitely not to be missed if you are in the area.

Easily the best gluten free fish chips I've ever had. The batter on the fish was perfect, and the chips were crispy on the outside and super-soft on the in side. They were sooooooo good. It was my first time having haddock and it didn't disappoint. Very tasty. If I ever make it back to Shetland I am making a visit to Frankie's a priority.

This is an award-winning chippie, and certainly the fish and chips are very good, not the absolute best I have had in Shetland, but then Shetland is noted for outstanding fish cookery. It is ecologically sound too, big on sustainability. The surroundings are beautiful and the place itself pleasant, though oddly lacking in atmosphere. Service is brisk and efficient and prices reasonable. There's a nice outside terrace to see the views from.

We stopped in here at the end of a long tour to see Shetland’s award-winning fish chips shop. We got the big fish chips battered, small fish chips panko-breaded and mushy peas. There were many other options on the menu for our meal, but we opted for the standards on our first visit. It was quite crowded, requiring either a reservation or takeaway, but food came out quickly. Overall, the food was pretty well-done. We’re certainly glad it’s here, upholding the classic tradition.
