Spinnaker's was friendly, cozy, chilled out and exactly what I like in a wee pub/restaurant. Decked out in maritime regalia, from miniature ships to bunting made of buoys at the entrance, it's everything you would want in a seaside tavern. The staff were really friendly, the food was reasonably priced and very tasty - crumbly fish and fat chips were the perfect end to a busy day! It's not as flashy and in your face as some of the other diners in town, but it should not be overlooked. Spinakker's offers good service and lovely, affordable food without frills and fuss, but certainly with character. With a good family vibe and warm atmosphere, it's a restaurant for all weathers, and shouldn't be cast over - it's a bit more of a secret, but it's got substance.

We were sad to see so many vacant buildings and like many of the other tourists, actually went up to several pub doors just to walk away realizing it'd gone out of business some time ago. We walked past a few "take-away" only places and at first dismissed it, but then upon not finding any other options, settled on The Hip Chip. We ordered two Cod and one Chip. Everything was cooked to order right in front of us and took about 15 minutes. The service was very friendly. When we received our fish we suddenly realized we got quite an amazing deal for our money; each of us got about 1lb of fish in addition to a good helping of chips. The fish was enormous and very good. The batter was flaky and seasoned well, much more than the standard salted seasoning. The fish tasted very fresh and wasn't overpowered by the batter, although it did start feeling a bit heavy after about 1/3 of the fish, but that's also because it was extremely filling. Definitely set the bar high for our first European fish and chips experience!

Not sure what we got but it was a lot of fish, and an abundance of fries. We've been in Scotland and Ireland for about 8 days or so, and have eaten fish and chips about 6 times. This had to be our least favorite. Batter / crust too thick, flavor of coating was that if a deep fryer seeming to need a refresh of oil. The service was decent, however all of our entrees were delivered to another table who ordered well after us, with one of the people hand delivering our food across the aisle to us. TWICE! Minimal tartar sauce provided, after asking for it... could've gotten more I suspect, but wonder who would've received it (humor intended). Place was empty when we arrived very quiet, either a lingering grease smoke in the room. Way too warm inside, with little to no ventilation. Stuffy is a good description. Last note.... The two orders rang up at over $38 / £29. Too expensive for a small town joint, with not the best flavor. IMO. I took no photos, not worth it.

So, we realized, for such a small town, to have this many people standing in line, it must be good, so we had to stop. The fish was fresh, the batter - light, flavorful, not greasy - was fantastic, and local potatoes for the chips, it really was great. Since that time, I've moved to the PNW coast in the US, where we have another great "local" F&C shop.

I used to go there when I went to Turnberry for my annual golf pilgrimage to Scotland. It's about a 10 minute drive from the Turnberry hotel along the west coast of Scotland with a great view of Ailsa Craig. The F and C consists of a generous mild and moist filet with a crunchy breading and thick wedge cut fries wrapped in newspaper for take out, for about £5. The newspaper soaks up some grease and absorbs steam which keeps the food from getting soggy during the drive back to my room. I didn't take photos then but you can check their Facebook site for representative photos: https://www.facebook.com/marinegirvan/. This place is a dive in DDD Flavor Town. The F and C are excellent and I wish to repeat again or have them teleported! I haven't found a place in my area yet that compares.

Im sure no one can blame me. When you walk into this little restaurant, you are walking up to a counter and ordering your dinner. They have 14 varieties of chips, priced from £2.20 (small chips)up to £4.60 (taco chips with bolognese and cheese). There are four varieties of fish (i got the fresh battered haddock at £3.60) and fries and gravy for £3.40). The fish and chips were delicious. The gravy was bland (hence the 4 stars instead of 5). The serving was extremely generous. This isnt the best fish and chips I ever had, but I would put it easily in the top 3.
