"It’s hard not eating fish and chips when you are in a place like Stonehaven. I ordered the MSC Standard Haddock with chips for £10.30. You can tell the fish was fresh from the first bite. It was extremely delicious. Sadly the tartar sauce is bot included with the chips so do not forget to order one for £1. My only complaint would be about the portion sizes. I wish there were a little more chips, but considering how cheap the prices are you can just buy another portion of chips. Definitely give it a go when you are in the area."

Excellent fish light and crispy batter. Chips delicious too! A lovely spot. Might be a wait for orders due to it being so rightfully popular!

Very expensive and disappointing £2 for a can of coke yes £2 and £4 for a little bag of rubbish chips and believe it or not 60p for a sauce. Daylight robbery

Have been many here may times and would always rate it highly but the smoked haddock supper is the best chippy I have ever had. Lovely home made sauces and coleslaw and tasty mushy peas.

Really good fish and chips! Great to see the provenance of the fish (and the potatoes! Friendly efficient service and good sized portions. Batter crisp and not greasy and beautiful fish and real mushy peas not tinned! Worth all the awards! View menu

Great location right on the promenade by the sea. However the fish were very small! Where were the jumbo haddocks advertised loudly on their website? Disappointing. The breaded coating and their own tartar sauce was wonderful. Pity about the tiny portions!

We came here from a recommendation from a lady in a shop at Forfar! We ordered a bartered sausage with chips, fish and chips and a portion of smoked sausage for our two dogs. The food was presented so lovely in boxes, we didn’t get chance to take a picture because as soon as we had sat down to eat, they were gone! Food was gorgeous!

Hadn’t been in a while but wish we hadn’t bothered. It was a Tuesday mid afternoon so great that it wasn’t busy. We were disappointed on the whole. Fish was lovely fresh and tasty but about half the size you would expect. The chips really weren’t good and we never ate them all. The chips were a bit hard, cool and tasteless. We remember it being much better previously. View menu

As senior citizens, we each had a small fish chips, one battered, one breade, plus mushy peas, plus curry sauce. It was plenty for us. We were well full afterwards. The fish was just as it should be, hotter than I normally seem to get. Chips were great. Mushy peas had more tangible peas than elsewhere. The only thing worth mentioning was perhaps the curry sauce, more than I often get, but thinner. With quite a strong taste. I loved seeing the name of the boat which landed the fish behind the counter.

Dropped in after spending an afternoon in Stonehaven. Chose this chippy after reading reviews and we were not disappointed. Fresh fish, cooked there and then, not too greasy and perfectly cooked chips. A little on the expensive side for what we’re used to, but you absolutely get what you pay for here and we were more than happy to pay a little extra for the freshness. Service was good and everything cooked to order so you cannot ask for more than that! If you’re in the area… this is the chippy to go to!

"Sunday, 3rd September 2023 – 19:00 Meal: Wine Starters – Main – Coffee My friend and I arrived at 19:00 to a busy but not overfull restaurant without a reservation and they accommodated us upstairs. Menus were produced and we ordered a bottle of white wine and a jug of water. 0rders placed for starters and 2 servings of the Italian style fish stew on the ‘Specials Board’ at 26.99 each. Tomato and chilli with promises of loads of different fish. The toss up was between a steak or the stew (which neither of us would cook at home). The table was dirty and needed wiping – this request was placed 3x on the young waitron who eventually produced a cloth slopping water from a bucket in the corner cupped in her hands where she half heartedly wiped the table with water dripping onto my friend’s lap. Hurried mop up with tissues out of my bag. The white wine was plonked on the table – next to the cooler – unopened and no glasses. Several attempts were made to attract the waitron’s attention. Eventually another bottle was produced opened and we were advised the waitron was under age and not allowed to pour wine. Perfectly acceptable had she produced an opener and the glasses with an explanation I would have been happy to help myself – we understand and appreciate these things. The starters arrived and were delicious! The chef then came out to see us and explained that there was no lobster for the stew – we asked for extra monkfish, he then said there was no monkfish left – but could help us with other white fish and crab claws. He said he was down to the last 2 portions, and he would ensure they were hearty. We were a bit concerned and suggested perhaps we settle for the steak which is always delicious. He assured us we had made the right choice and would enjoy the stew. The stews arrived and were ‘hearty’ if being crammed with the contents of a tin of crab claws is your definition of hearty. The promised ‘rich tomato broth with chilli and garlic’ was a watered down version of what was clearly less than a cup of the original broth left at the bottom of the pot topped with water. It was tasteless – lacking in hint of either chilli, wine, garlic or herbs – having lived in Malta I can assure you I have a deep understanding of Med cooking. I guess we were lucky we didn’t have the salty brine of the crab claws as the broth. It was inedible and we were starving so we kept adding salt and pepper – we were beyond the point of returning the food which was a mistake in hindsight. We skipped dessert – had coffees and left. The meal came to nearly £100.00. This was an expensive lousy experience. We paid a generous tip – because they accommodated us without a reservation. Take aways from the experience: • The restaurant service on a Sunday evening at 19:00 should be as good as it is on a Friday at 19:00 • Being a local and having eaten there several times – it is my first choice for a ‘good’ meal – don’t abuse the luxury of local support. • Train your waitrons to clean tables, by wringing out the cloth and not dripping water on your patrons. • Waitrons (even under aged ones) should at least carry a wine opener, and understand that wine glasses should be produced when delivering wine. • Your chef should know better and never, ever assume he can cut costs by selling the dregs from his kitchen. • A poor dining experience costs you more than you think. We would have ordered dessert, and more importantly returned for a second meal in the next week – WE DIDN’T! I have a friend coming from Ireland in November – do I risk taking her to the Anchor?"
