The Crab & Lobster Fish Shack

Brilliant food and very attentive staff, we will definitely return. Great to see it so busy!

Lovely fish and chips, good value for money. Some original touches, eg seaweed butter. Only negatives were disappointing mushy peas and unavailability of advertised 0% beer.

Servers were friendly. Enjoyed the food and the white zinfandel rose wine.

Food was great and the staff attentive, could not fault anything

Great service, food & atmosphere. would very much recommend it.

Lovely restaurant with amazing fish & chips and great service..would definitely recommend

Great food fast service friendly staff will be back soon

2nd visit here and the service was great and food again was delicious,

Exceptional food and fantastic services. The restaurant also looks incredible. Cant wait to return.

Good Thermidor lobster. No steak available. Staff were very attentive.

Good family atmosphere clean & tidy Great staff & food

Good food and service. Was sitting near the 'open kitchen" so could see food getting prepped and cooked, but after a while the air became a bit smokey and irritated eyes so would benefit from a stronger extractor fan in the kitchen.

A very enjoyable meal. The special was grilled monkfish, and it was delicious

Absolutely fantastic choice. Gluten free top notch. Will be back

Food was acceptable. But I expected more variety in the menu.

Excellent first visit. Good food and drink in attractive surroundings served by enthusiastic staff.

Great food and service .. like seafood this is the place especially the oysters

Was our first visit here. Will definitely be back. Lovely food, friendly staff and a great atmosphere.

Great fresh seafood choice and welcoming friendly service. Good to be able to have Scottish sea food well prepared. Excellent espresso by the lady barista - a sign of a quality restaurant. Would suggest having frites not just thick chips and some lighter desserts e.g sorbets or a quality home made dark chocolate ice cream with sea salt, like the Fish Shop in Ballater, where we are from.

Resturant was lovely, few things missing on menu, apart from that, service and food was amazing. We will be back. Thank you.

Excellent service and good value the food was very good

It’s a place full of easy and relax vibes which is perfect for family dining. The prices on the menu are reasonable & affordable. I would recommend it and willing to come back again if I have chances.

Service was slightly slow but worth the wait. Food was great and atmosphere great, very nice restaurant.

A great range of seafood in pleasant surroundings. Well worth a visit!

Lovely polite staff. Great meal. Will definitely be back again.

Not particularly happy staff and flies at the window where we having a meal with the kids due to the entrance door permanently open asked for another table however unable to move so had to put up with swatting flies. No apology

Great food , friendly service and nice vibe. Will definitely be back

Nice lovely meal .. well worth it.. will definitely be back

Good service and excellent food in a very nice restaurant

Seafood platter not available as no crab, this was this reason we visited. Name is crab and lobster shack so a bit ironic no crab! Some of our group opted for steak which was very fatty and chewy and to be honest we’ve had better steaks elsewhere, some of steak left for this reason. Service was ok but felt we were constantly asked by different waiters if everything ok which we felt wasn’t necessary and then empty bottles and glasses collected without waiter speaking a word. Waiter actually stood whilst one of our party finished his dessert so we felt rushed and thought this was rude. Overall quality of good wasn’t worth the price we paid, £250 for party if 4! Wouldn’t return to be honest as really disappointed

A fantastic experience. Delicious food. We will be back. Looking forward to clock and collect too!

Delicious Cullen Skink and mussels. Helpful staff. Lovely, calm blue decor.

First time here , food and service first class, would highly recommend .

Lovely meal at the Crab and Lobster, service was prompt, polite and efficient. Only small criticism would be no need to ask if everything all right quite so often it was a bit much.

Lovely amazing place, with friendly staff, Spotlessly clean, food was amazing, Will definitely be back

First time at The Crab & Lobster certainly won’t be the last, Food & Service was excellent, Will be recommending to friends & Family.

1st visit but will be back. Tempura oysters and lobster to die for. Hubby had scallops & Singapore soft shell crab thought they were amazing

Absolutely delicious, staff are great and really friendly, no crab today but thankfully mum wanted the monk fish special if not she would have been disappointed. Apart from that we couldn't fault it 👌🏽

Brilliant loved it the fish quality was lovely and served was great

Excellent service, food amazing and a great atmosphere. Will be back soon.

Fabulously tasty fish with crispy batter. Chips were amazing and tartare sauce was sublime.

Great front of House. Good vibes, good food. Will return!

Beautifully cooked monkfish as a special of the day - delicious. The gluten free battered haddock was great too. Nice laid back atmosphere with friendly staff.

Good service lovely food, great atmosphere been a couple of times now didn’t disappoint 👍

Visited on Wednesday 16th July for lunch with a friend. Food was good as was the service. I would thoroughly recommend the Monkfish if it is available.

Scallops delicious, Haddock fabulous, service swift and very friendly… superb

Amazing food, friendly efficient staff. We could find fault with anything. We will definitely be returning and will be highly recommending to friends & family.
