    The Lobster Store - Freshly cooked lobster!

    So the name of this place is a bit ambiguous: The crab shack, the lobster shack, the lobster store…read moreor, that little wooden hut on the harbour...This has to be one of the East Neuk's best kept secrets and is a real gem. Very very reasonable dressed crab and fresh lobster. On a sunny day (yup you are in the East Neuk, so these days are not too rare) between Easter and September, come down to the harbour for some al fresco dining. It is a little bit of New England in Scotland! Here is how you tackle the lobster shack. 1. Make sure it is open - opening hours are variable, but usually open weekends from Easter, and in the height of the summer, they are open during the week for lunch. 2. Bring glassware/plastic cups and corkscrew if you are wanting juice/wine 3. Get some cash - they don't take cards 4. Go to the hut and pick your lobster, they are live and will be freshly boiled for you. 5. Whilst lobster is boiling, go to the co-op across the road and buy some wine, bread, salad or anything else you want to have with the lobster/crab - the lobster/crab is just served as is, no lemon or anything. 6. Come back and grab yourself a bench, get your delish lobster/crab which will be served on a glass plate with real cutlery. 7. Enjoy - guaranteed you will! But please, please, don't tell anyone else - this is a really special place, we don't want it too busy now!!

    Wonderful, freshly cooked lobster, shared between five of us while seated on a bench in the sun,…read morelooking at the boats in Crail harbour. Pick your lobster, in a few minutes it comes back piping hot with lemon juice, salt and pepper, and a range of tools to extract the flesh. About as simple as food gets, and just delicious!

    Really great fresh seafood options! Definitely a must if you are a seafood lover. We also really…read moreenjoyed the nice wine selection. I love that it's not only a restaurant but also a seafood market so if you are just looking to takeout or bake fish at home it's a great option. The inside of the restaurant was nice nothing too fancy but modern and clean. Service was very attentive and nice. We did not feel rushed even though when I booked they had a note saying a time limit. This seemed common at most restaurants we booked in Scotland though so maybe it's more of common place. Overall if we are ever back in St. Andrew's we will be back.

    Ate lunch here while visiting our daughter's campus and had a good meal. I had the sea bass and…read moreenjoyed that. I normally like sea bass that is baked, but the one here was grilled. My past experiences with grilled sea bass was that it was dried out, but that was not the case here. It was prepared really well. My daughter had the mussels and was happy with that. My wife had the Tabbouleh Salad with Halloumi and she loved that. Also ordered the Crispy Potatoes with Dill Mayo side and that was very good. Good service and nice environment. Also has a fish market at the front of the store that you can purchase meats to go. Definitely would recommend a stop in here.

    I was visiting Aberdeen with my Mom and Sister and wanted to take them out for a treat at a…read moreMichelin star restaurant. The presentation and food were fabulous! We start with the baked scallop with cauliflower and basil (extra £5--worth it!) & the mozzarella arancini with tomato vodka sauce and parmesan. Both were so yummy! The scallop was baked into the shell, and I may have made noises while eating everything. The hake was a little bland, as white fish can be, but the eggplant, miso custard, and hazelnut really complemented it causing tasty explosion of flavor. I can't eat a lot of pasta, but I wanted to eat all of my sister's king oyster mushroom ricotta gnocchi with spinach and garlic confit. She took half of it to-go so we could save room for dessert. My mother enjoyed her fillet of beef with caramelised onion and beef shin--she'd never had that before and was very pleasantly surprised! We shared all the deserts--all very delightful, you can't go wrong! The atmosphere is quaint, with the cafe sitting next to a gothic church on a quiet street--even tho it's very close to the City Center. The cafe can fit about 10 tables of 2-4 people...if that. The service was some of the best I found in Scotland. They were attentive, asking how the meal was going and refilling drinks. I believe the US has some high standards of service, and the staff at Moonfish cafe were on top of things!

    Nice lunch experience!Service is also great. Although menu is short but every dishes I had were…read morewonderful. Definitely want to try here another time.
