Gorgie Fish Bar

this could be the best fish and chips in gorgie/​slateford area, shame they don’t have cod but only haddock and I personally don’t like haddock, nevertheless the fish is freshly cooked and chips r generally crispy. I was bit confused about price since I ordered the fish and chips and battered sausage supper which cost me about ten quid something, I think that’s bit expensive?

good foot great staff very clean place as well

I’m going to give Gorgie Fish Bar 3 stars. Not because it doesn’t do GF chippy’s but because my chips this time were awesome but absolutely bloody awful last time, hence 18 months between visits.
My comments are strictly chip related for the special dietary needs exclaimer above but all sorts are available here — pizza’s, suppers of every variety, burgers, glass bottle juices, jars of mussels, etc…
My chips this time were perfect. Post the Odyssey night and after a couple of glasses of Prosecco, I had an almighty craving for chips on my walk home. They were freshly made, piping hot, not too greasy and when I asked for my usual, they were drowned in ‘tons and tons of salt and vinegar’. I scoffed them quickly, they were so good.
Service is great here — it is the one place where if I say ‘tons of salt and vinegar’ then they get a proper heart attack inducing level of salt pouring and a drowning of vinegar — yum :-)
So, I’m more inclined to visit again soon and if the same high standards are met, then it may even be a 4 or 5* review for the humble bag of chips.
PS. its a decent sized portion too :-)

Great chippy, fresh taste food at a good price. I’m a very picky person when it comes to a good chip shop but i love this one. Getting my dinner from here tonight :)

Best chippy In Edinburgh!!! Lovely fish and chips, you always get a friendly welcome from all the staff that work there and they have great customer service! I usually get deliveries to my house and they are usually pretty fast at delivering plus the delivery driver is really nice and chatty! I recommend this Chippy to all my friends and family! I wouldnt go anywhere else now.

The best fish in edinburgh i have ever had !!

Gorgie Fish bar, right by Tynecastle Stadium, has got it all as far as I’m concerned. There’s a fair bit of space inside and a massive heated counter where a good supply of fish and chips can be kept for the starving punters, who come in their throngs on match days.
Yes, it does the standard kind of food you’d expect from a chippy — namely fish and chips. But as Amy said, they are done exceptionally well. You can smell the deep fried goodness as you walk on by. Its aroma is wafted across Gorgie Road and you are powerless to resist its tempting charm.
Chips are crispy and tasty as hell without being rubbish and overcooked, portions are generous and staff are patient, even on the busiest of days. Service is pretty good considering it’s always busy, and the fact that it’s usually stowed out is a testament to how popular it is amongst the locals. It’s big, it’s deep fried and it’s here to stay!

I think Amy is right because…
This is a really great chippy, food is really cheap and so are cans too (thats where they sting you!). But like she said, don’t expect to get served on a Saturday. The best you can hope for is sitting around collecting the scraps on the ground what the punters drop (which could feed a small country).
I think Amy is wrong because…
Baked beans should never be near sausage suppers and she should be banished to an Spooky Island for even suggesting it!

Greasy, even for a chippy. When I’ve found it open late enough at night for me to be going to a chippy instead of somewhere else, I’ve had burgers and fish and chips there. The fish is always, always soggy. Overpriced for the quality of food that comes out of it.

This is my local chippy, and its pretty good. The staff are pretty friendly and they serve a variety of chip shop food. They also do pizzas which are good enough and there is a varied selection of toppings. My boyfriend always gets the fish and it does taste pretty good. The food is always freshly made too, there’s nothing more disappointing than getting your fish supper home only to discover its cold and soggy.
This chippy is right next to Tynecastle stadium, and when there is a match on this place is packed. So I guess they are doing something right! As far as I can see its the only decent chip shop in the area.
One thing that bugs me is they don’t do baked beans. Random, I know but I like beans with my sausage supper! I guess in Edinburgh baked beans at the chippy is a no-​no.

Stopped in here the other day as I was walking home and was utterly disappointed. I got the fish and chips — which had apparently been sitting under a heat lamp all day. The fish and chips didn’t seem to have been cooked wellboth seemed very soggy and actually caused me to spend the rest of the evening curled on the couch with a trashcan nearby as a result of an awful stomachache. Hopefully this doesn’t happen often

Best Fish & Chip shop evergreat stop off for a pre or post match snack and the staff are always really efficient and fast.
You can buy bottles of brown sauce which is ideal if you are ever unlucky enough to have to buy a chippy through west where they just don’t have the right idea on sauce!
Get yourself in for a scrummy spicy haggis supper! mmmmmmm

My favourite traditional chippy. Don’t expect anything fancy but fried food at its best. They do pizza and burgers, as well. I have never tried the former but the latter are really nice, too. So if you ever get lost and hungry at the haymarket, walk up Gorgie road and get your fix of fish, rib, haggis or whatever meat one can batter and fry. They don’t do deep fried mars bars though.
