I've been coming to Mackay's Fry's for a very long time, I grew up in Coldingham which is 3 miles…read moreup the coast from Eyemouth. Despite there being a perfectly ok chip shop literally across the road from our house it was always worth jumping in the car to get a proper fish supper from Mackays. When I was living at home the shop was further along the high street but this location (the old Co-op) is perfect for a fish and chip shop and cafe. The take away counter faces the high street and in the back heading out to the sea wall is the cafe. They even have picnic tables looking out over the sea with parasols to save you from seagulls diving bombing your chips. You can always spot a tourist by the nonchalant way they assume they can eat their chips walking along the sea wall, locals know this is the fastest way to loose your chips and risk being pooed on! Anyone who has been there will tell you that a present from a seagull is not lucky, they are massive birds with a fish based diet. Just sit under the umbrellas please! G and I had abandoned the girls with my mum and were working on the rule that calories consumed more than 50 miles from your home address really don't count so both ordered fish suppers to go. We sat at the picnic tables laughing at the tourists fending off seagull attacks and tucked into the best fish and chips ever. The chips are perfect mainly chunky, light and fluffy but with just enough wee crispy ones mixed through to keep everyone happy. But the reason you come to a fishing town to eat fish and chips isn't the chips! The fish here is spectacular. Fresh, meaty, flaky perfection encased in the most spectacularly crisp gold batter. I'm salivating just typing this. They make their own ice-cream and I have only ever heard really good things about it, am pretty sure it wins awards. But I just come for fish and chips. The only downside is that it ruins you so that no other fish supper will ever satisfy again, to be honest I'd still do it.

Given the reviews I was expecting something lovely rustic and tasty, but sadly what arrived was a little bit bland, with boiled potato and vegetables. Now, there was nothing wrong with it at all, it's something that my mum would make, but I wouldn't rush back for something that definitely equals home cooked food. However, maybe I just got lucky with my mum :) It's not the worst place to visit by a long shot, and the pub area has lots of beer mats to look at while waiting for meals to arrive.

Great surprise find in Eyemouth…read more We were visiting Lindisfarne a few days ago when the oncoming tide laid our 'on island' lunch plans to rest. So as we headed north toward Edinburgh we were on the hunt for a likely spot. Eyemouth caught our eye and we found Oblo next to the harbor. We ate upstairs on the deck in the Bar/cafe area and had a nice view to go with our great meal. I went for the open faced steak sandwich and my daughter got the haddock goujons (aka fish and chips) and both of us were very pleased. My wife ordered the langoustines which were quite good. But the big surprise (to me at least) was my son's pizza with chicken and parma ham. The ham was just delicious and the pieces of chicken were not the dry and tasteless chunks I had feared. Lastly, tasty drinks were had by all - ale and cider for the parents and juice for the kids. The service was good and it was really nice to be able to enjoy a sunny day in Scotland by eating outdoors. We were very happy to have found Eyemouth...and Oblo.

Head upstairs for a Sunday carvery, where the food is plentiful, if predictable. Reasonable price, but then, with the kind of hangovers I suffer from, they could charge me the price of a small family car and I'd be fine with that.
