Some of the best Fish and Chips I have ever tasted.
So this is my first time at Fish N Hook and I am a fascist when it comes to good fish and chips. I had a large haddock supper.... price was high end of the scale so I am being quite picky.
Fish: perfectly cooked, flaky and too big to fit in the box. The fish itself was top end and tasty. Enough even to accidentally feed a seagull on the way home.
Fish Batter: was lovely, light and crisp on the outside... more like a tempura. Inside it was a little claggy and not ideal, perhaps layered on a little thick. This was pretty much the only weak point and is easy to fix and will vary from order to order. Hopefully my next will be better.

I gave an extra star for the chips and pickled onions because they were good. You Decide, you can see the outline where it's...
Read moreWe ordered a regular haddock and chips, and a battered sausage and chips last night from Fish N Hook. I saw that they did Panko breadcrumbs and thought I’d try it. Glad I did! The coating is super crispy and not at all oily, and the fish is completely encased making it perfectly steamed inside.
Prices are very reasonable for the quality of the food, packaging, and service.
The only constructive feedback I could give is to please use local potatoes 🙏🏻
We’ll definitely be back!
Recently heard that there was a shortage in the supply of local potatoes in Aberdeen, which must be why they were using...
