    Good

    We had dinner here whilst staying in Brae. This is the UK's most northerly fish & chip shop and it is extremely popular. We didn't book and they managed to fit us in, but with hindsight, booking is advisable.

    Disabled Access In and Around

    Good

    There is a ramp to the door (nice gentle slope) and all of inside is wheelchair accessible. It is quite tight, but they fit us in, with my assistance dog, who was really tired and decided to lie full length for a sleep. There is also an outdoor balcony seating area but it was too narrow to get out in my chair due to wooden picnic benches.

    Parking & Transport

    Good

    There is a car park and there are a couple of blue badge spaces by the entrance. The car park is on quite a slope though and it isn't that big. We were travelling by motorhome and were staying at Delting Boat Club, so decided to walk it (about 20 mins each way).

    Excellent

    The staff were fantastic! They made every effort to fit us in, even though we hadn't booked. They were friendly and helpful. We went back later in the week for a takeaway and arrived 15 mins before they opened. They saw us waiting and opened early to serve us.

    Additional Information

    Strongly recommend the mussels!
