Zavaroni's — Local services in Bute

I can’t believe they are allowed to serve such rubbish food. Fish was thinner than the batter, dark brown with black lines through it. God only knows what fish it was. Apparently according to the big person with glasses behind the counter said. and I quote when asked do you have Cod. (Scottish people don’t eat Cod because of the worms) I should have walked away then. Unfortunately my fault I didn’t. Mushy peas need to be renamed on the menu to. We used to be mushy but now watered down to a watery pea soup. Chips, well they were probely ok once. The jewel in the crown was their curry sauce. There again seeing as it’s powder and hot water, who could get that wrong. Looking forward to a family fish and chip supper, the last night of our fabulous holiday on the beautiful Isle of Bute.

I think the hygiene people should drop in and give this chippy some sort of rating. Then you could make your mind up before you order. My advise tread...

Was hoping to get some decent fish and chips while on one of the Scottish islands but it was disappointing. The fish was simply listed as 'fish'. I know my fish and I am pretty certain the fish used here was basa. That's an inexpensive mass-farmed river fish from southern Vietnam. Such a shame when you're so close to the sea and I'll bet there's cod, haddock or pollock out there or further up the coast. Batter was quite oily and overdone. Chips were OK, bit soggy. I liked the mushy peas. Staff not particularly friendly. In a bigger town with some competition a chippy of this level of quality would have gone out of...
