Here are our Reader's Top 6 Fish and Chips in Moray:
Portknockie Fish & Chip Shop
Sitting beside the picturesque harbour and the famous Bow Fiddle Rock is the award-winning Portknockie Fish & Chip Shop.
Reader Catherine Lorraine commented: "Portknockie Fish & Chips is by far the best around. Great portions, everything freshly cooked."
Liz Innes says that "It can’t be beaten for great food and good service."
Fochabers Fish Bar
Fochabers Fish Bar is an award winning chip shop just off the Moray coastline. Last year they’ve been named on Fry’s Magazines 50 best fish and chip shops in the UK for 2021. Fry’s magazine uses mystery dining visits to score shops on over 40 aspects, from quality of food and customer service to social media presence and Covid safety practices.
Fochabers Fish bar excelled in all areas, there’s no doubt about it, this little family run fish bar is an absolute star!
Our reader Dougie Duff commented: "Fochabers, and I lived in Elgin before, far better than anything they have."
The Lossie Chip Shop, Lossiemouth
Slap bang in the middle of the North-East coast is the beautiful fishing town of Lossiemouth. Take a day to walk or try your hand at surfing along the rolling duned beaches right outside the main town. Then, finish the day off with some top quality fresh fish suppers, with local produce coming a stone's throw away in the North Sea.
Reader Vernon Wm Carey commented: "Lossie chip shop is the best and friendly staff and always busy when open, local fish and individual chips."
Rockfish Cafe & Chip Shop, Whitehills, Banff
Another local institution near Banff, Rockfish has a few sit-in places which is great on rainy days and plenty to choose from on the menu.
Roy Stevely said about the restaurant: "World class Fish & Chips! Good sized portions, excellent quality, great service!"
Pinefield Chipper, Elgin
Located on Pinefield Crescent in Elgin, this place is known for mouthwatering fish and was a favourite among the readers that responded to our call.
Although it might not be in the fanciest location, the chip shop makes up for it in food quality and service.
