Lucky we got there early as crowds started arriving. Friendly, gluten free aware staff, all certified sustainable haddock, eco-friendly packaging and cutlery. The huge platter special was only £8.20 including a huge salmon fillet, smoked haddock fishcake and nicely cooked piece of haddock. Chips were nutty and proper non-puréed mushy peas. They let you know what fishing boat brought in the haddock and what farm raised the spuds. Member of the Sustainable Restaurant Association and winners of many awards. Totally delivered on their promise and amazing value!
Very very busy shop, would recommend to pre order in advance. The system works for ordering as items are cooked fresh, the downside this does slow the service down. Over all the food was great and fresh. I didn't order onion rings but they looked great.
Best fish and chips in the world.
Before we tried them, we loved the Anstruther fish and chips and were the best ... until we ate here ... now Bay Fish and chips is our favourite and clear front runner.
Perfection.
Even the tartare sauce was sublime.
If you're buying fish and chips anywhere other than here, then you're being cheated.
We drive all over Scotland and we do lots of walking. Part of that is fish and chips benchmarking; The Bay is the top of the tree 🌳
Phenomenal
Award-winning chipper that boasts it's sustainability. But they also claim "locally-sourced fish and chips" when their potatoes come from 500 miles away in Cambridgeshire, England. That said, the hake was OUTSTANDING. The fishcake was good, the haddock was mediocre at best and the tartare sauce was dreadful. The chips were good. At least the fish was Scottish. I'd go back for the hake and chips. Absolutely. I'm sure I will at some point.
We ordered online and collected from an excellent team at the Bay. We were a party of 8 so put them to the test as we had such a varied order. Everyone enjoyed their food. Special details are the fresh lemons, the lovely paper boxes and details of the fishing boat that caught the fish. A lovely touch as we knew the fishermen!

I walked in and was immediately greeted by a friendly staff.
I spoke with a gentleman behind the counter that offered a few suggestions from their rather large menu.
I ended up selecting a meal that offered the Haddock, smoked Haddock, fish cake and chips.
They cooked it up greah and it came to me nice and hot.
The young lady behind the counter was extremely friendly and entertained a few my questions about the Stonehaven area.
I took my food to my car so that I could watch the ocean while I ate.
I can honestly say that it's probably the best fish n chips I've had since I've started visiting Scotland. I will most certainly be back!!
Thank you for a fantastic meal and a great staff!
We hired The Bay on the Road fish and chip van for our wedding & the food was outstanding. The fish was unreal, I'm sad I only had time for one serving! Our guests absolutely loved it. The service was great and went so smoothly, thank you so much again!
Lovely place with the best haddock and chips. Great staff and wonderful views! No wonder it's Award winning! Thank you xx
A pleasant place with surreal view. A great place to have fish and chips.Really delicious with affordable prices and on bonus icecreams are great option to pick for.
Excellent food cooked freshly. There’s a little wait but it is absolutely worth it as the food is the best I’ve had from any chippy anywhere. Definitely not the cheapest place around, but it’s absolutely worth paying a little bit more for food this good.
Staff are very friendly and welcoming.
Only one bench outside (constantly occupied) which meant sitting on the sea wall being watched by seagulls, but that’s to be expected given the location.
