Wow these are the best fish tacos I have ever had! Fish cooked to perfection and delicious toppings. Wanted a fish dish to take away while visiting Oban but didn’t feel
like a traditional fish and chips. This hit the spot perfectly!

I am slightly building my addiction with the Fish Box tacos. My favorite ones are the Shrimps ones but the fish ones are great also. Seasoning is perfect and very flavourful. Never been disappointed by their service and quality. The owners are consistently friendly and approachable. 5 stars!

Absolutely amazing! I had the fish tacos (mild) and chips. Honestly the freshest and tastiest fish tacos I've ever had! Save yourself any disappointment going elsewhere in town and get yourself the best breakfast, lunch dinner or snack. Go up on top and sit looking out on the sea and Mull. So soooo good!!!

Good food, reasonably priced. nice sitting area up top if you want to eat in, or convenient take away packaging if you prefer to sit on the beach nearby.
The fish tacos were very very 👍🏻🙂😃

Disclosure: I am an expert (I am from San Diego aka taco Mecca) throw away all other reviews.
Shrimp taco was 90% of the way there: phenom shrimp, coating was very light not heavy breading, sauce was great. The taco shell (to be expected this far away from Mexico) was sub par but that’s to be expected (more of a wrap). Salsa is also sub par but to be expected in the UK.
Other than that I was borderline about to order another without the shell as a salad (yes be a man and order a salad). Overall can’t go wrong.
Note: all seating is outdoors which is fine if you are a man and can survive the elements

What amazing place to eat. King prawn tacos were to die for. Recommend this as your no1 evening dinner spot.

Was pleasantly surprised with the portion size, had the king prawn tacos and the prawns were huge and extremely fresh. Got it extra spicy but wasn’t much kick to it but didn’t take from amazing taste. Well worth a visit for some decent grub

Friendly and fast service. Tacos were well priced and tasted great! Not something I’d usually have in a taco but it was worth it. Seating area on top of shop is a nice touch.

A must visit. Amazing tacos using fabulous fresh produce. Some of the biggest king prawns I’ve ever had, cooked to perfection. The staff are so friendly and really know what they are doing. I wouldn’t pass by again without stopping!

Brilliant little place! Consistent in their opening times (unlike so many other places in Oban), with very friendly staff and really good fish tacos! Topped off by being able to sit up top and eat whilst enjoying the view from the roof terrace. Went twice in 5 days.
