Got takeaway here recently – they were open when many other places weren’t (public holiday). The grilled fish was lovely, the chips however tasted off, like the oil hadn’t been changed in quite a while. Cash only, very annoying in 2023.
The very Best hamburgers…. always fresh, always delicious…. same goes for the fish and chips. Were lucky to have this takeaway when you ferl like a great burger.
perfect spot to grab some fish and chips! great service and equally good food.
Not so bad place to get your quick snacks although the oil could have been a little old on the day when we bought our foods because we can taste it in our chips 😥😢 it could be done better by changing the oil more frequently. 👍👍👍
I had grilled barramundi, it was good. The chips are okay… But the potato scallops are delicious! Every time I have been there the service has been good and friendly.
What the hell!!!!
$9 for a small seafood salad to have 3 prawns and 4 pieces of crab !!! The rest is celery!!! Absolutely disgusting what an absolute rip off!!
Amazing service! Beautiful caring team and beautiful fresh food
We really like this takeaway. Nice and fresh. The people are always lovely and give you service with a smile. Very short wait every time. I would say it’s the best takeaway in the Highlands.
