The Ashvale

Staff lovely. Food was great. Everyone left happy with a full belly. Not very busy so some background music would help. Edit went for the new steak pie. Veru generous amd tasty. Fully booked on a Thursday tea time.

Disappointed, had much higher expectations for this restaurant, ate haddock and mixed jumbo scampi that were not jumbo at all , haddock taste was less than average, overpriced, had much better fish and chips at other places around 🙄

Aberdeen doesn't have a lot of fish and chip restaurants, which gives the Ashvale a slight advantage but when you're in the mood for a chippy its great to be able to sit in and enjoy it! They have a wide variety of all your chip shop classics, including a teatime flyer: which is a selection of them, including tea and toast or your choice of fruit juices (surely a can of Fanta or Irnbru could be included also?). I would always recommend booking ahead for a table as peak times can get busy. They have also just increased their opening times, which is good if you're not one for eating early. We had used a TasteCard on our visit which gave us some discount as the prices are quite high but you do get what you pay for, large portions served fresh and with some homemade toast... you can't go wrong!

Great fish and chip! Ordered the 2-course lunch sets and love them all, especially for the starters haggis bon bons and smoked chowder. The fish and chip is top notch. The staff are friendly and polite as well. Will definitely come back when visiting Aberdeen.

Very nice wee sit in fish and chip shop and very well priced

Still the king of the Chippers! Shared a whale between two, fish exceptional batter crispy chips fresh. Lovely member of staff. Was a nice trip down memory lane as we used to go 30 years ago when students.

What a great place to have a fish supper… and more!! 🙂 Winter called me by my first name - I didn’t make the booking! My son disabled loved the food, especially the ice cream!! Highly recommend.

Had dinner a couple of days ago with my friend and my mum. The place was great; the food was too. However, one of the staff members was horrible to us. No idea why!! Very unwelcoming, very hostile, very disrespectful old grumpy woman. When we first came in she wasn’t happy that we have not booked a place and made it sound like the restaurant is so busy and you won’t get a seat etc. However, that was the opposite of reality; half of the tables, if not more, were empty proving her dishonesty. She gave us a table next to the staff toilets, while most of the other tables were empty. We didn’t let her ruin our evening. We had our fun, but it was quite disgusting the attitude she gave us. Another young waitress who served us the fish was the sweetest. Very kind and respectful. I will certainly not be returning. Maybe if they sack her, I may think about it. Horrible worker.
