We were here while we did the NC500. The Fish was quite good, but the chips where insanely great! Best chips we had on our trip so far. Stopped there 2 times for lunch. Absolutely nice owners :)
Ate here in may 2023. Good fries, but unfortunately frozen fish. Considering the location, it's really quite sad and disappointing.
I don't like leaving 2 or 3 star reviews, but I want to be honest in case we visit the area again (and for balance). This was a big let down for us. The food was poor in my opinion. I feel it may have been frozen fish and not a full fish as I'd expected for the money. Was nearly £10 for a fish and chips. My kids (8 and 10) likened it to one we'd had days before from Farmfoods (Young's or similar). Service was fine and the place is alright. We were expecting a lovely fresh fish supper by the sea and this was nothing like it unfortunately... maybe we were unlucky as it was near to last orders (6pm).
You get to the top of Scotland/Britain, and you want some sustenance? Check out The Cabin!
Set in a lovely port-adjacent cabin in the glorious John ‘O Groats, The Cabin offers travellers a great selection of hot and cold snacks, sweets and drinks, including the classic fish and chips! How on Earth the folks manage to coordinate their whole operation in such tight working conditions seems like magic, but they somehow make it work!
Seating is outside and provided by a couple of picnic benches, so best to go when the weather is nicer! A beautiful spot provides stunning scenery whilst you enjoy your tasty snacks.
Whilst doing the NC500 we stopping at the camp site at John O’Groats and found this amazing little place!!
We were only just in time for food (thank goodness, it was a long day), but we were met by a lovely smiley team who were more than helpful with everything we asked, even if we might have been a little awkward not knowing what we wanted to start with.
We had such a lovely time talking to others while waiting for food and when the food did come, this was just as lovely! We weren’t sure what to expect but this was definitely something we would be coming back for.
Even after our trip I wanted a hoody they had for sale and they have been lovely enough to offer to send me one to my house all the way in oxford!
We will be back!!
This is a small little shed that does coffee and some snacks like a haggis bun. The best my husband ever tasted! Good coffee. Nice owners and ideal for take away when you go on the ferry to Orkney or on the road.
Beef burger, chicken burger, hot dog and chip butty, lovely food, good value for money, staying in the camp site next door ????????
Lovely friendly folk here & the best fish & chips ever . Thank you to the cabin , will be coming again????????
