The best chip shop in Arbroath is a big debate and everyone has their own opinion of which is the champion. Personally I’m split between Marcos and the Golden Haddock.
We ordered tonight for delivery to Carnoustie. Delivery costs £5 out here which is on par with others. It was estimated 90 minutes but arrived after about 35.
The food was all beautiful. My fish supper came with a little extra bit of fish which was fantastic (see the pic). The portion of chips was a bit disappointing, I’d probably say one of the smallest I’ve ever had as part of a supper. I had a couple of fritters ordered too, so it wasn’t too bad, however given it costs 3.30 to go from a single to supper I’d expect a decent amount of chips.
My girlfriend had a half battered pizza which she said was nice. I could hear the crunch any time she bit it which is also good.
Onion rings: in most chip shops across Scotland when you get onion rings, it’s those terrible frozen ones that arrive - not hear though! Proper home made onion rings that have been battered. They’re fantastic.
All in all, another delicious meal and great service time. A shame about the chips, but that’s overshadowed by how excellent everything else was.

Not gonna lie, chippies aren’t really my cup of tea but when I heard Marcos did pizzas as well my interest was certainly piqued!
Was really impressed. Great base, lovely tomato sauce and nice toppings. 5 out of 5 would recommend. Would go back

Excellent fish and chip shop in nice harbour location. We were seeking a fish and chip supper on holiday and weren't disappointed. Great food and hard working staff in a busy location. Always a good sign when a takeaway is busy... My daughter thought the ice cream shop next door was equally great!

Weird I know, but I'm not usually a fan of chips from chip shops. It's very rare I enjoy them. But Marco's chips were absolutely perfect! I really enjoyed them :) it's weren't a fluke either because my nephew told me had some before and they were good... so when we were there, we got fish and chips. I would highly recommend

Marco's has a lot going for it: probably the best batter I've had on fish light but still crispy keeping the fish moist, generous portions for the fish, a frying to order policy so the fish gets to you in the best condition, and very good chips. The prices are very competitive compared to other chippies in other cities. The location, on a sunny day is pretty good as well.

Great place to park up and eat your food over the harbour.
Fish and chips were very delicious, crispy and great potion size. They do a great cuppa tea and coffee varieties.
Right next door is an ice-cream parlor.

Come to Arbroath 2 or 3 times a year and always used the closest chip shop, we checked Google reviews and gave Marcos a try.
Wow, superb fish and chips, fritters were the best. I would say this was the best fish supper I have had, I have had a lot!
Kids loved the sausage and chicken, definitely our favourite chippy.

The fish is delicious but the chips were rather crispy. Not to our liking. Good, friendly staff.

This has come a long way again, used to be my favourite chippy they hit a bit of a flop at one point but buck up to top tier fish and chips, ice cream is expensive but you get what you pay for.

Great chippy and prices not bad. Always freshly cooked in front of you!
