AberdeenHibee Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Sure it'll have been mentioned multiple times, but The Bay in Stonehaven is absolutely sensational. Edinburgh has utterly shite chippies IMO. If The Bay opened up down here they would make an absolute fortune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doulikefish Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Tobys is decent enough. My parents moved up there last year, they went to the fish hoose once I think, but didnt think it was anything special.I went once when it opened and on the board was the name of the fishing boat that they had bought there fish from proclaiming it "landed fresh today" only small problem was it was my nephews boat and he landed on the tuesday this was friday [emoji23] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambie's Pigeon Feed Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 All the chippies within walking distance of Haymarket are utter shite. There's one in Roseburn that's alright and the Gorgie Fish Bar and Fountainbridge Fry are serviceable but the delivery or walking time means it's all a bit soggy by the time you get it home. Fish suppers need to be consumed almost immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
young_bairn Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 The Bay in Stonehaven is fucking excellent. Before the lonley planet entry there was always queues out the door so I imagine it will be crazy queues now. A local tried to convince me the chippy in Gourdon was just as good but it wasn't.

Might take a trip up at the weekend and try both to see if I've changed my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melanius Mullarkey Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Quote Like many Glaswegians I never require to be asked twice when a fish supper is being offered, and a trip north to Stonehaven to sample one on a rocky northern shore seemed like the perfect Saturday. He should amend this to: Like many Glaswegians I never require to be asked twice when a fish supper is being offered, and a trip to Stonehaven to sample one on a rocky northern shore gave me a nose bleed as Ive never been north of Milngavie. ETA: Plus its on the, at a guess east south east facing shore, not a northern shore. Fucking weegie Grauniad imbecile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
