We’ve been coming up to Anstruther for years in the camper, and more often than not we’d find ourselves in the queue outside the famous Fish Bar. Years ago, the wait always felt worth it—the fish was generous, fresh, and paired perfectly with their always-delicious chips. Sadly, this visit left us underwhelmed. The chips are still very nice, no complaints there, but the fish itself was a real letdown. The portion was so small it felt like there was more batter than actual fish inside. Granted, the batter was tasty, but when the fish is meant to be the star of the show, it just didn’t live up to what it once was. The service also seems to have slipped a notch. Not terrible, but definitely not what it used to be when things ran like clockwork. All in all, it just didn’t have the same sparkle that made it worth queueing for in the past. Next year, we’ll probably give somewhere else a try. Still good chips, but sadly the Fish Bar has lost a bit of the magic it used to have.

We visited this place for a classic British meal and were not disappointed. The Fish and Chips was truly traditional and delicious—the batter was crispy, the fish was flaky and fresh, and the chips were perfect. The service was efficient and prompt, though perhaps not overly friendly or warm; they were definitely professional. What stood out immediately was how super clean the restaurant was. This attention to cleanliness is always reassuring and added to the positive experience. Highly recommended if you're looking for an excellent, authentic Fish and Chips in a pristine setting. Great food, great standard of hygiene!

Just go! A friend who used to live in Edinburgh recommended this place for fish and chips. I had the lemon sole and my wife had the traditional haddock. Both were excellent! The lemon sole was a little more flaky but a thinner filet. Both had excellent batter and the fries were great. A very, very good fish and chips!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Anstruther Fish Bar Had the Haddock Fish Supper and honestly — the best fish and chips of my life! The fish was perfectly golden and flaky, the batter crisp without being greasy, and the chips… just incredible. It’s honestly akin to magic, TBH. The staff were super friendly and helpful, making the whole experience even better. Worth the trip from Australia just to taste it! 💡 Tip: It can get very busy, especially during lunch and dinner rush, so aim to go close to opening time if you want to avoid the queue. An absolute must-visit — this is how fish and chips should be done.

On having a cottage break away with our dogs we thought we'd travel the 40 minutes to try the famous Anstruther fish bar. We were not disappointed. The best fish supper ive had. Really tasty batter and the freshest haddock the chips were fluffy and crisp on the outside. The wife went rogue and got halloumi sticks with chips and curry sauce. In her words the best chippy she's had. I had a side of homemade tattar sauce. It was all delicious. I can see why this is ranked the best. This will be a regular whilst in Fife.

Called into the Anstruther Fish Bar on Friday afternoon very busy with sit in and takeaway although I was a fare bit back in the queue the young lass took my order and some 20 minutes later my order was ready. I ordered their traditional battered haddock 🐟 and chips 🍟 along with a breaded 🍞 lemon 🍋 sole 🐟 and chips 🍟. The breaded 🍞 lemon 🍋 sole 🐟 was plentiful with two lemon 🍋 sole 🐟 and a fare portion of chips 🍟. All of the above were tasty and delicious 😋. On the other hand the battered haddock 🐟 was a bit of a damp squib as there were three very small haddock 🐟 fillets in the box 📦 not their usual full on can't get it into the box single haddock 🐟, the chips 🍟 were good slight crispy on the outside and soft inside. Although I did notice that the takeaway box 📦 had shrunk somewhat in size to a very small oblong box 📦. All in all not the best experience we have had at this chippy and at a cost of just under £25. I'll be giving the Wee chippy a try next time we're in Anstruther.

Not quite sure why people rave about this place. The fish and chips are good, but there was almost no fish under my crispy batter. Seems like I and the rest of the early customers got the odd bits and ends from the previous day… Disappointing really, as there are many other less ‘famous’ fish and chip shops where can get a full fillet and more chips for a lower price. Service was ok, cleanliness was fine

It is not a place but a set of wall plaques depicting the relative distances of the solar system. Gives you a good walk.

Love this

Visited on 11 April expecting to see puffins on the island however when we arrived the warden informed the staff that they had almost all left and went out to sea but luckily I managed to a photo from some distance and was probably the only one on the boat lucky enough to get one. Anyway, despite that it was still a great day out particularly due to the excellent weather we had. The boat cruise was well organised, they expect you to be there about 45 minutes before departure time which varies due to the tides. There is a hut situated on the middle pier next to the RNLI station where you check in and get a boarding card. It is advisable to book in advance as many days will be fully booked during the peak times. The journey time to the island is about 1 hour and the boat carries up to 100 passengers. The boat has a little snack bar selling hot drinks and some souvenirs. There are also toilets on the boat. Beware that the crossing can be a bit choppy and this is exaggerated on the top deck so best to concentrate on the horizon to avoid motion sickness. Depending on conditions the boat will do a little tour and the skipper gives a little commentary over the loud speaker with some useful information and history. We had 2 1/2 hours on the island, I would have liked a bit more time as it’s difficult to cover the whole island in that timeframe especially when stopping to take photos, packed lunch, etc. The return time was clearly displayed as well on our arrival at the island and the staff use a clicker to make sure everyone has returned. The crew were all very professional and friendly and given that I didn’t get to see as much wildlife as I had hoped for it was still a brilliant day out. I will be back in the next couple of months so will keep an eye on how quickly the availability fills up.

Had a very good day sailing out to isle of May, especially as it was a very calm day. The boat was fully booked so be prepared to be very close to other people. The crew were very knowledgeable about all the wild life, coffee and snacks on board. We had two hours on the island,which seems a lot but time flies quickly. Centre on Isle is very basic toilets and centre with active for kids and info about birds on island. Well worth the visit even though most puffins and other birds had left.

A fantastic trip and well worth the money. The crew were fantastic and very knowledgeable. We were lucky to see a vast array of wildlife and some people need to remember the crew cannot make animals appear. The boat has a nice little snack and gift section.

Loved the trip to the Isle of May on the May Princess! The crew was very kind and accommodating, providing a memorable experience with their knowledgeable commentary about the island's wildlife and history. The trip lasts around 4.5 to 5 hours, including 2.5 to 3 hours ashore on the island. The May Princess sails from Anstruther to the Isle of May almost every day from April 1st to September 30th. A great way to see thousands of puffins and other seabirds in their natural habitat!

We wanted to do something different when visiting the Fife coast, and this was it. We really enjoyed our visit to the Isle of May and had a great experience onboard. The skipper and staff were great, and very knowledgable. The island is great to visit but be mindful of what time of year you go, depending on what you want to see. We just missed out on seeing Puffins by a couple of weeks, which was a shame but there is a lot to see on the island. There’s a tuck shop onboard with ample selection, if you were hungry or thirsty. Would visit again, at a different time of year to see different animals.

Had an amazing trip today on The May Princess. Was a wee bit choppy but a good laugh! The crew were really friendly and looked after us really well. Loved exploring the Isle of May and had plenty of time to walk around at our own pace. Will definitely return!

A really memorable experience. The crew are locals who know their stuff and are very mindful of the local wildlife. They even released a puffling to the sea on our trip. You get a couple of hours to explore the island, take in the views and have a bite to eat. Just be prepared that the sea can be choppy, but the crew were very quick to hand out sick bags to anyone who needed one!

Our recent speedboat trip to the Isle of May was absolutely amazing. The journey itself offered stunning views that any nature lover would cherish. Once we arrived, we had about 2.5 hours to explore the island on foot, taking in breathtaking vistas and observing thousands of birds, including our beloved puffins. The combination of the thrilling boat ride and the serene beauty of the island made it one of our best experiences in Scotland. If you find yourself in the area, this trip is not to be missed!

A Truly Magical Experience – Puffins, Nature, and Pure Wonder! When we began searching for a way to see puffins during our time in Scotland, we came across Isle of May Boat Trips — and we are so very glad that we did. From the moment we checked in until the moment we returned to the mainland, every part of the experience was exceptional. The staff were kind, helpful, and clearly passionate about what they do. Arriving on the Isle of May was already exciting, but nothing could have prepared us for the overwhelming beauty of the island. The experience of seeing puffins up close, along with many other bird species in their natural habitat, was awe-inspiring. It was one of the most moving and unforgettable moments of our trip. Walking the island brought a sense of peace and connection that was both humbling and energizing. The quiet, the fresh sea air, and the breathtaking views created an atmosphere that felt almost sacred. Learning about the work of the volunteer staff who help preserve and study the island made the experience even more meaningful. As we returned to the boat, we were lucky enough to glimpse a seal pup — a perfect ending to an already magical day. We never could have imagined the sheer sense of wonder we would feel on this one excursion. Thank you to the entire team at Isle of May Boat Trips for providing such a special and unforgettable experience. It is something we will cherish forever.

We had a great time and saw a lot of puffins and other birds and even some seals. The island is very windy so it's a bit chilly. I'd recommend a warm coat or even gloves and a scarf.

I received a trip to may isle as a birthday present. Having always wanted to go, my expectations were high, and I wasn't disappointed. Staff are friendly, helpful and attentive. The crossing took less than an hour and was a little rough in a stiff breeze. I would definitely suggest this vessel over the smaller ones if you are a little prone to sickness. The vessel has toilet facilities and even a small shop selling hot and cold drinks and even a stiffer one if required. They also have sweet treats and very popular puffin gifts. On arriving at the island, you are met by wildlife wardens who give a brief talk of the particulars on the island. If nature is what you are seeking this is undoubtedly a breathtaking experience. For around 3 hours we were surrounded by tens of thousands of seabirds of many types. Let's be honest I wanted to see the puffins and explaining what they were like is difficult to put into words. With over 60,000 pairs on the island you are almost surrounded with birds like butterflies in a meadow.

45 min boat trip to reach the island which is beautiful with loads of puffins, eider ducks, guillemot, razorbills, gannets and other seabirds, seals can be seen too. There are also lighthouses to explore. The guys who man the boat were lovely and very helpful. Terrain is relatively easy going, some hills but not overly steep and you must stick to the paths to avoid disturbing the nesting birds. No cafes or shops on the island so take food and drink although the boat has a small snack bar. We loved this trip which is about 2.5hrs on the island altogether and a great experience for bird enthusiasts.

This is a tour not to be missed. We took the speed boat to the Isle and our tour guide was fabulous. Full of facts and humor. (Simon is believe) The island itself is just amazing. Its A LOT of walking but the views keep you going. You're given plenty of time. We're not the fittest and everything was manageable. We saw puffins everywhere. And a few seals. And every other bird that inhabits the island. Too many to count. Worth every penny.

The Isle of May is definitely worth a visit but if you're after puffins make sure to get three in July since in August they are already gone

Popped into Scottish Fisheries Museum for a well earned delicious 😋 bowl 🥣 of homemade lentil soup 🍲 😋 after our walk 🚶‍♂️ from Anstruther to Cellardyke and back. A really warm welcome and friendly service awaits you....

What a great museum! It was interesting and did a great job of explaining the history of fishing throughout the years. It also had great interactive options for kids!

such an interesting and thought out museum, that really honours all parts of the fisheries story in scotland. couldn’t recommend it more!!

Bowl of Cullen skunk - beautiful taste & lovely clean cafe. Surprised there isn't a queue to get in. Rounded off a lovely tourist day in Fife. I'll be back.

Very interesting items to view and lots of well explained information and a great place for all ages Also good cafe

Good attraction, if you like fishing and boats. The exhibition is far far larger on the inside than you would expect. If your in Anstruther then I'd recommend a visit. Was £36 for 3 adults an OAP and a child.

It's such a great spot to stop for tea and a scone. They had delicious date bars, which reminded me of my grandmother. They have a gift shop, local art, and the museum.

Lovely harbour, very picturesque especially in the sunshine like I had today. Limited paid parking next to the harbour however there is plenty of free parking next to the Coop on the outskirts of town but is still a relatively short walk away.

Toilets are ok but 30p to have a pee is a bit excessive. If you can wait go half's with someone else and chip in 15pence each or if you're not that desperate someone might let you in for nowt if they have a radar key. There's showers in here too but the door is locked and you're supposed to be able to get a key from the harbour office but it was closed and no one there on Friday at 3pm. So not sure what time you can use the showers. Nice harbour anyway with boats and things. Some look a little worse for wear but most are ok. Few benches around too so its ok to sit around and watch the seagulls

A beautiful harbour... We had some fish and chips with some mushy peas it was delicious.. a very clean place with a nice friendly atmosphere.. the parking was cheap enough but not many spaces to park..We visited as many shops as we could and bought some Malt whisky.We had nice weather without any rain and the sandy beach was clean and peaceful.We will most definitely visit again soon.

Great spot. Gorgeous food. Lovely fish and chips. Lots of dog friendly bars and restaurants. Peaceful, restful stay.

Nice day meant parking and shops were busy. Two badge places near RNLI. Plenty fish and chip shops and ice cream shops to choose from. Tide was out so all boats sitting on their keels.

Tranquil harbour near St Andrews. Famous for their fish & chips. At least 2 stores made it to the top of the charts in the UK!

Love this place. Beautiful little fishing village with just as beautiful locals although I may be biased as I have a lot of fond memories of here.

We stayed with our two teens so that we could attend the Pittenweem arts festival. The hostel is right on the water front, and our rooms looked out over the water. Both rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. They both had little sinks right in the room. Linen and towels were provided. There were two shower stalls, a toilet stall and two sinks in the shared area on our floor, which we seemed to only share with one other person. There were also common washrooms beside the lounge area. The lounge had games, couches and chairs, and two coffee tables. The kitchen was open and welcoming with a large central table and a small fridge. We received arrival information well in advance, and had no trouble at all with our booking. Re.parking: we did park in the public lot past the hostel, but at the end of the day we moved to the street at the side of the hostel. The area is busy during the day because there are a lot of nice restaurants and cafes. What a beautiful town! We will be back.

I’m giving 5 stars and would have given more if it was possible. I had a great family vacation in the hostel with a stellar view from our room, awesome host (Dariusz) and all that in the very heart of Anstruther. Can’t recommend more!

Very nice, clean, big common kitchen/dining room. We could leave our luggage after check our, which was appreciated. The host was also nice. Cleaner then some expensive hotels. Cons: could use handtowels, the bathroom light switches off while showering. No wardrobes.

Splendid hostel in all the ways. The best i had stayed . The views are stunning. Very tidy and clean. Great decoration in a " home" feeling. Darius was so welcoming and friendly.Great place to go back again. Well recommend indeed. Carla

Luckily we were almost alone in the dorm. Very friendly staff. We left our luggage in the office while off on a boat trip (Isle of May, highly recommended!)

A lovely, clean, quiet hostel right in the heart of Anstruther. The single rooms at the top of the hostel were just delightful. Comfy bed, view out onto the sea, and binos supplied for any bird watching! The shower was great - lots of hot water and good pressure. Would definitely stay here again.

Great place, perfect location on the seafront and bus stop right outside. Excellent gluten-free fish n chips at The Wee Chippy next door. Darius, manager, super friendly and helpful. Kitchen and bathrooms immaculately clean. Dorm is perfectly functional but although I knew when booking that dorm was mixed, I did not like this as a solo woman, esp 2nd night when no other women in the dorm.

Had a table booked for 7:30pm got welcomed and show to our table then never seen them again till 8pm. Asked if we could order drinks and was told no, let me get your food order first!. Food came later and was nice enough. However, the mixed pakroa starter says mushroom, but we got none. I asked but told no u don't get this even though it's on the menu? They also forgot our nan breads. Again, we had all ate half our meal before we saw him again to ask for our nans. Now I know why there was a big queue outside the fish n chip shop

We had a fabulous meal here tonight. Food was delicious and staff were amazing. Anytime we visit Anstruther we always visit this restaurant definitely one of the best

We recently attended Eastern Touch for a meal to celebrate my birthday after reading such good reviews online, and I can honestly say I’ve found my new favourite restaurant. To say the food was incredible would be an understatement. We had four starters, four mains, and accompaniments of rice and variety of naans. Everything was hot and fresh, and so flavourful! My chicken bhuna was delicious, and I cannot recommend the peshwari naan highly enough. From the moment we entered, we also received such friendly and attentive service from our lovely server Pin! He made us all feel so welcome and was so lovely to talk to. Since our experience, I honestly have not stopped talking about or recommending this restaurant to my colleagues and friends. I will definitely be returning to Eastern Touch in the near future. It truly is a gem of a restaurant, and a place you don’t want to miss!

Had a meal at the Eastern Touch whilst on holiday. There were 6 of us and we hadn’t booked but the staff were great offering to put tables together for us . Service was quick and the food was delicious, hot, generous portions and well presented . 2 in our party had the Chicken Shaslick and said it was the best they’d had ! All in all a lovely meal , I would recommend .

Staying in Anstruther for a few days and called in to the Eastern Touch for a takeaway well, we weren't disappointed the food was delicious hot and plenty. Good price point as well.....go give it a try.....

Another fabulous meal at the Eastern Touch (July 2023). The King Prawn Lanka was so delicious, huge fresh king prawns. Service was friendly and efficient. Would recommend booking a table. Previous Review - We've had several takeaway meals from Eastern Touch and every meal has been consistantly delicious. The king prawns are huge and succulent. Definately recommend take away and sit it.

Had a fantastic meal service exemplary definitely recommend will be back for sure. Would recommend the executive starter and biryani but everything flavoursome and good bits of chicken breast. Garlic nan was amazing kids devoured the korma in seconds

Absolutely wonderful pub which always seems to be busy. Great range of beers and other drinks. No food. Dog friendly. Beautifully refurbished with top quality woodwork and quirky decor. Great toilets. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Great spot right on the sea, they open up their shutters to look out onto the small port of the town. The inside bar is recently renovated and blends modern and ancient beautifully with a stone staircase open right in the middle of the bar. Full selection of beers and excellent cocktails, great spot to enjoy the sunshine!

What a cracking pub with great atmosphere, this might have been because it was extremely busy on the both occasions we were there. A big plus was the service, the staff took their time in pouring the Guinness to make sure it was perfect then they brought it to you table. Going back this week so another few pints of perfect Guinness.

Beautiful Pub Spectacular decor So cosy and special created seating nooks For private chats or comfort reading spots Dog friendly 🐾 On the corner on the street with outdoor seating for great sunny days to enjoy the view of the harbour

A great pub with a warm, cozy atmosphere — the perfect place to unwind. The staff behind the bar were friendly and welcoming, always with a smile. The beer was crisp and cold, just as it should be. It was the perfect way to end the evening and fully soak in the charm of this picturesque fishing village. A true local gem!

Walk along the front in Anstruther and you'll find the New ship Inn opposite the Life Boat station, bustling bar with a good vibe, we sat outside in the sun and watched the world go by, drinks are reasonable and service good, staff are friendly. There are tables across the road overlooking the harbour which fill up quickly

Great pub with excellent beers on tap and friendly staff. Interiors are so well-presented, from the original steps behind the bar to the helm chandeliers on the ceiling. Outdoor seating is perfect for sunny days, right next to the harbour.

Very nice coffee. Small cosy coffee shop but with outside seating area. Very polite and happy team with a nice selection of cakes. We had to take away coffee and cakes. Very nice coffee and tasty cakes. No real wait.

We're still sat outside on a beautiful October Saturday and just shared a fabulous cheese ham and tomato toasties for lunch with drinks. Beautiful friendly staff and great spot. Totally made our weekend. HIGHLY recommend.

We we’re in here on Tuesday for lunch with our wee dog, people were so lovely and ordered cheese toasties with a mug of tea, it was Beautiful, best toasties so yummy and tea was great for a cold day. Would very much recommend, brillant cafe. Wish we had a Coast in Edinburgh

A cosy wee coffee shop, located centrally at the harbour front, with lovely views. Good service and friendly, chatty staff. Coffee was superb and there was a wide range of sweet and savoury foods available, all very delicious.

Lovely wee coffee shop in the port, in Anstruther. The coffee is really good and paid for my bfast a mozzarella baguette with salad and chips, a cappuccino and a juice just 7 £. My fave place in Anstruther.

Very nice strong coffee, choice of cakes. Friendly staff. Very affordable.

We have wanted to try this place for a while after trying to get in by just turning up, but it's always busy. This time, we pre-booked a table. We parked in the street up from the pub and walked down. There was road works on the footpath in front of the pub, which directed pedestrians onto the main road, not very good as this is a busy road. We entered the pub, beware if you are tall, this pub was built years ago, so the lintles are very low. The pub is your classic fisherman's pub, all stone with wooden beams. We were taken to our table, and soon after, a server took our drinks and food order. My Cullen skink was really nice, my wife's soup tasty. Our mains were both sirloin steaks, although not on the menu our server did say there was rib eye available as well. Mine was to be well done. My wife's was medium to well. However, the server mixed these up, and we had to swap plates. My steak seemed to get pinker as I worked my way along it, so not quite well done all the way through. The chips, although salty, were good. We found it to be a bit pricey for the food that was served and the hilarity coming from the kitchen on that night probably contributed to the poorer quality of food. The servers were polite, prompt and well presented but service was let down by the mistake with the steaks. The toilets, although clean, were a bit tired looking and in need of an update. The hand wash and lotion smelled really nice.

INCREDIBLE. Perfect blend of cosy pub and incredible seafood. I wish I lived closer to this gem. The tagliatelle with haddock and smoked mussels was the best fish dish I’ve ever had. Really fresh ingredients, beautiful flavour and well presented. If I lived just 2 hours away from this place I would drive back just for this dish. We had the salmon and caviar to start which was also amazing. 10/10

A fabulous old cosy pub serving excellent food with really friendly staff providing a first class service. Our mackerel linguine mains were packed with flavour and a fine sticky toffee pudding to finish off.

We wandered in to the Dreel Tavern after a long coastal walk hoping we could get a casual pub lunch. What we got instead was absolutely delicious food and exceptionally well made cocktails, to the point that may have been the best whiskey sour I’ve ever tasted…! The Cullen skink in particularly was ridiculously good, and every small detail (seasoned butter anyone?!) was spot on. Service was fab, friendly and relaxed and the pub itself is beautiful! Would love to spend a long evening there sampling more of the cocktail menu by the fire with a book - a good reason to go back soon!

It was really perfect, great service, extraordinary delicious food and a lovely atmosphere! We enjoyed every minute :-)

What a lovely experience! Good beer and amazing food. It was a lovely sunny day so we sat outside in the beer garden - such a cosy and chill place. Inside was quaint and welcoming, too. I was cycling in the area and this was such a nice place to come to and chill for a while. Staff very friendly and professional. Also dog friendly. Hoping to be back!

Pitiful portions for an over inflated price ..food good but not worth the money..we complained they took service charge off..we had to go and find somewhere else to eat were that hungry, shame it’s a nice pub with lots of character too

Lovely church with an even lovier congregation. Always very welcoming.

Popped in yesterday to buy a dog harness and lead for our labrador. The couple couldn't be more helpful and the shop is absolutely stocked up with everything you could want for your pet. Great to support small local business.

First time visiting on Saturday. While I was in Anstruther. For the Isle of May Open Weekend. A friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Great selection of animal products. Was there for a gift for the dogs birthday. Managed to find what I was looking for. Reasonable prices. Would definitely visit again. And would certainly recommend it if you are visiting in the area. Made it more special by taking a photograph of it on the Island.

Great shop very friendly staff and very well stocked with products for every pets

Absolutely lovely shop!!! Most incredible selection for doggos and the staff were so sweet and helpful.

Popped in to purchase some supplies for our new puppy whilst on holiday in St Andrews. I was pleasantly surprised at this Aladdins cave of a pet store. It is huge inside with a large selection of pet supplies. Got everything we needed for our puppy. Staff member was very friendly.

This pet shop is AMAZING it is like an Aladdins cave. The owners are so friendly, very knowledgeable and very helpful. They even post our dogs favourite treats to the west coast when we are at home for the winter.

What a great shop , got everything you could want for a pet and staff are always very helpful and knowledgeable. My 1 year old labrador was pulling and pulled me over, I went round to shop and the owner suggested a Halti collar. What a difference that has made, would definitely recommend Pets Pantry.

What a wonderful wee shop. Elizabeth the owner so friendly and clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about what she is doing. Bought my first ever shampoo bar and seriously impressed, won’t be going back to bottled stuff!

I am writing in regard to a recent review I posted. I received a lovely e-mail from Elizabeth at Dos Mundos following my post. Thank you very much, I really appreciate your message and I would like to revoke my original message. I will definiately be back to have a look in the shop...

Been buying stuff here for many years. Love the clothes and responsible attitude to slow fashion. Always extremely curteous and keen to help. Best shop around for miles. 💕

I love this shop ! I've found the staff attentive without being overwhelming, honest in their opinions, friendly, and cheerful. It's a pleasure to shop somewhere local with a fair trade ethos, selling well made and imaginative clothing.

This is a great shop with a wonderful array of clothing carefully sourced by the owners. The East Neuk of Fife has some fine places to indulge yourself in, and Dos Mundos is certainly one of them.

Love this shop, a must visit if you are in the area, fantastic selection of ethically sourced products and the owner is lovely too.

Brilliant wee shop! Lovely customer service and fantastic clothes. I will be back.

One of the most memorable and challenging golf courses I played during my two weeks in Scotland. Not just the famous fifth hole but also #2, 6 and 7 due to the small greens, contouring and wind! Club staff were exceptionally friendly. The greens and bunkers were in excellent condition (better than Old Course). If you’re a a single or twosome, try to get paired up with a member. I was fortunate enough to play with two very hospitable gentlemen. Thanks David and Fraser!

“A Must-Play Gem in Anstruther – An Unforgettable Golfing Experience!” Anstruther Golf Course is a stunning hidden gem that every golf enthusiast should experience. After reading about this charming course before our trip to Anstruther, I made it a priority to play a round with my son, and it did not disappoint. The course, though small, is well maintained, offering a beautiful blend of scenic coastal views and challenging holes that test your skills at every turn. The layout is truly special, with each hole presenting its own unique challenge. The standout is undoubtedly the famous 5th hole (par 3). Standing on the tee box, the shot is as daunting as it is exhilarating, requiring precision and nerve—definitely a hole you won’t forget anytime soon! The green fees are very reasonable, offering excellent value for such a well-kept and memorable course. The welcoming atmosphere and the sense of history add to the overall experience, making it a course you’ll want to return to. If you’re staying in Anstruther and love golf, don’t miss out—book a tee time at Anstruther Golf Course without hesitation! It’s an experience that will be one of the highlights of your visit.

Lovely 9 hole course layer out as traditional links course with the Par 3 5th hole being voted the hardest in the UK. There is also fantastic views of the Firth of Forth towards East Lothian. Well worth a visit if you like links golf in its true form.

A great ladies greensome competition. The wind did get up, but we still had a great time.

Super friendly staff. Fantastic course. Playable in any weather condition. Great experience. Must play if near st Andrews

Played Thursday 04 September, Course is a wee gem great layout with some fantastic holes, anyone in St Andrews for the golf it’s well worth a visit you won’t be disappointed. Very friendly club

Me and 2 friends were treated to an afternoon round off Golf at this Great Wee a course. Upon arrival we were greeted with a very warm welcome. The Course was in very good condition, and with the course being situated next to the North Sea , it’s a real challenge with a very strong wind. The 5th Hole has to be seen to be believed! Also had some bar snacks and the service was absolutely 1st Class 👏🏻 Will definitely go back in the summer for another adventure.

Small clean beach and good area for walking too. Bit open to SW winds so can be a bit bracing on cooler days.

Lovely beaches, some are completely covered with shells, and lots of Tectonic rocks which are fascinating. Nice coastal walk along the top of the beaches.

It's a lovely beach with some stunning views . I wouldn't advise a swim in the sea as the water is freezing cold . However, it's a picture postcard view

Was raised in Anstruther in the 1960's and went to Primary School there. It's a very scenic area and very popular with tourists. It's also famous for its Fish and Chip Shop one of the best in the UK and winner of several awards. I've returned on several occasions over the years.

Quiet windy day. Lots of birds on beach .

Amazing place to walk

Lovely wee beach near the pier, nice and quiet

We came here for dinner and had an absolutely fantastic experience! The food was outstanding — the mussels were probably the best we’ve ever had, with a divine sauce that we’re still thinking about. All the ingredients were incredibly fresh, especially the fish and seafood. The sticky toffee pudding was to die for! Service was super friendly and top-notch. And to top it all off, there’s a beautiful view of the Bay of Anstruther from the windows. Highly recommended!

Rockies is a hidden gem, tucked away from the main street of Anstruther, 10mins walk from the front. The views from the restaurant across to the harbour are lovely. The food is as good as anything you'll get in any fancy restaurant, service was friendly and efficient. We really enjoyed our meal and will recommend it to anyone visiting this part of Fife.

A lovely place with great food, great service and a beautiful ocean view! We got a recommendation to go there and it was a perfect choice :-) the fishcake, the lamb and the risotto were absolutely delicious.

We’ve been there for lunch. The food was nice and they were quite friendly and had a good service.

Really, really nice food. Pleasant unobtrusive service. Great view across the harbour. Only wish there had been a bit more of an atmosphere. Good fixed price menu.

We had an absolutely delicious meal here in July, complete with gorgeous views of the sunset over Anstruther and the water. It looked very quiet and potentially closed from outside but don't let that put you off - we enjoyed scallops with black pudding and apple butter, hake with samphire, nduja, new potatoes and hollandaise, and a decadent, rich and moist sticky toffee pudding. The staff were lovely, the location close enough to Anstruther for an easy walk but far enough to have a quieter, more relaxed atmosphere, and the bill extremely reasonable for the quality. We will be back!

Wonderful food at The Rockies, Anstruther Golf Clubs restaurant open to all. The starter dish I had was a scallop, crisp pork belly with curried carrot puree and Mary had the salmon in a bouillabaise sauce as per the menu. Great to see a chef be more adventurous and come with novel and exciting dishes than the normal golf club fare. I know golfers like traditional nourishing grub after a round but we also like to try different dishes. Full marks to this chef. Superb food at very affordable prices.

The room was ok. It was clean but a few wee tweaks like the drawers wouldn't open and we had to take them out. But it didn't ruin our stay here. The hosts were lovely and I think that's the positive vibe from the hotel. I.think the owner needs to update a few things for the guests especially the WiFi! You have lovely hosts with Dee and her partner so make it an asset to get your hotel better cosmetically . You are in a fantastic spot in anstruther. Thank you Dee

At the bar. Felt uncomfortable with the locals constantly swearing and barman swearing just as bad. Not a kid friendly place. Good prices tho. Also vaping inside.

Thanks so much to Cherie and Sarah who went out of their way to make us feel welcome.From the moment we walked in till we left.Room was great, comfy beds,no complaints at all except wish we could have stayed longer. Great bar where we had a fab time,so welcoming. Breakfasts were so good. Thanks for a great few days

The room was spotless and the big bed very comfortable, breakfast was lovely and plenty of choice. The staff very friendly and helpful especially Dee who could not do enough for us and was very kind when my husband was taken ill. Will definitely go back there.

Visited the bar twice last week with my husband - made to feel very welcome by staff and the other customers. No frills, pool table, jukebox - good place for a drink and a blether without all the fuss. All covid measures as well are in place which is more than I can say for a few other places ! Will definitely be trying to visit again in the future

Had a great couple of nights in the Royal bar. Really welcoming place, staff were fantastic, esp cammy the barman. All the locals were cracking and very welcoming. I didn't see the rooms but would recommend the bar to anyone. It doesn't look that welcoming from outside but you def get a warm welcome inside

A nice wee hotel in the picturesque harbor town of Anstruther. The hotel is located near the harbor and fairly easy to find, but parking spaces for cars are limited. As we spent a night here during a motorcycle tour through Scotland, we were able to park our bikes in the courtyard behind the hotel. Our room was a bit small and simple, but good enough for a short stay. Unfortunately, it did not have a wardrobe, so we had to put our bags and clothing on the chairs. The bathroom was also a bit small, but clean and functional. The staff was very friendly and made us feel welcome. We especially enjoyed the freshly prepared breakfast. Recommendable for a short and reasonably priced stay in Anstruther!

Met family for lunch. Best beer I've had on holiday in Scotland. Food was great and everyone enjoyed it. Did not stay at the hotel.

Stayed at The Bank for extended golf holiday. Great location for easy access to some of the greatest golf courses in the world. The rooms are very spacious, comfortable and with the usual amenities. The Pub was wonderful and the staff very friendly and eager to please. The Scottish people are so welcoming! Our stay included a hearty breakfast, perfect for a day on the golf course or checking out the local area. The Bank met and exceeded our expectations. We would highly recommend.

Great pub, restaurant and B&B close to Anstruther harbour. Friendly staff and excellent rooms in neighbouring building. Tasty meals and plenty of options for breakfast. Would recommend adding haggis to most of the meal options for additional flavour! Limited parking but options nearby for free.

Fabulous stay here for the September weekend. Very peaceful, lovely atmosphere, spacious and comfortable room, charming and efficient staff and delicious food. Have already booked another stay. Thank you for a great weekend.

Wonderful meal, had a table for 4 with a child and we all enjoyed our meal. In particular the service was excellent, Holly was so warm and happy. Will be back

We had a lovely weekend stay, great view from 19c, fab breakfast, little walk round the corner to the harbour, dinner was delicious, bed comfy, spacious room and bathroom.

Staff was so lovely .The room had a nice sea view.Breakfast nice and prices are good.Just a minute walk from the harbour.Highly recommended!

A good variety of craft, food & drink vendors within a nice venue. Live music is a nice touch. Worth a visit if visiting the popular towns along the fife coast.

Nice unusual place to stop for a break. A very tasty selection of beers amd ciders. Not sure how long it is there for but there was a very large art exhibition ? A few small places to buy different foods within The Bowhouse. Plenty of free parking. Customers toilets were nice and clean.

Very disappointed with our visit. Baern café was shut, only the butcher appeared to be open in the market area, Futtle beer was open but the folk behind the bar didn’t seem interested in us and would same the same for the small kitchen shop. Overall a cold reception from the few places that were actually open. Drove over to Balgove Larder just south of St Andrews which was busy, vibrant, welcoming and absolutely teeming with food & goods to buy.

Went to the farmers market weekend, what a fantastic afternoon we had, the stalls were lovely and all the produce looked so fresh. Bought a sausage roll, as we usually do. They are the best and most filling we've ever had, bacon and chicken was awesome. Definitely worth a visit, the street food and love band made it even better.

Great place for a visit and to sample local produce. There was a large art gallery with works of art for sale during our visit. There is a marketplace with lots of different stalls selling a variety of local fare, food, drink and foodstuffs on at certain times of the month but not on this visit. The permanent shops however, we're open.

The cafe presented an intriguing experience. The coffee's unexpected flavor profile, reminiscent of beer, was less than desirable. While the food was adequate, it did not stand out. The available shopping selections were somewhat restricted, leading to a slightly underwhelming overall impression. It is important to note that our visit occurred during a weekday, and the experience may be enhanced during market days.

Visited on a summer market day, great place to browse and buy from local artists, crafts people and producers. Everything from a bottle of gin, to a artisan sausage roll! The Futtle brewery is great as well (permanent fixture at Bowhouse) we grabbed some beers and all ate from a selection of street food vendors that attend market days.

Terrible! Was given... not served... a tuna mayo roll.... what a joke. It was as flat as a pancake and served on a paper plate . No tomato no salad. Only a flat roll which was frodge cold! Tea served in a paper cup. Avoid. One positive. I got my money back.

Great staff and the best brownies I have ever had. Lots of quality locally made art and gifts.

excellent chocolate brownie and kind staff

Small menu, better for it, good food very pleasant setting. Would recommend

Fantastic friendly little coffee shop. A visit is a must. Coffee soooo good.

a great little place for coffee when visiting the art festival

Excellent food and welcoming staff?

The menu was fantastic with the right amount of options and tempting plates to suit any preferences. Exceedingly friendly and personable staff.

Our first time at this restaurant was late last year, and it was amazing — delicious tapas, great quality ingredients, and even the Spanish chef came out to chat with us about food from Spain (which we absolutely love and visit whenever we can). But this time… wow, what a disappointment. What happened to that fantastic tapas menu where everything sounded so good you didn’t know what to order first because you wanted it all? Now it’s no longer a tapas place — the menu is small and kind of boring. We asked the waitress a couple of questions about the dishes, but she didn’t seem to know much — not sure if it was nerves or lack of training. The only things worth mentioning were the croquetas and patatas bravas. Everything else was either greasy or just badly done, nothing like the tasty, fresh dishes we had the first time. On top of that, we found it pretty expensive for what we got. It honestly makes me sad to write this, because the place itself is beautiful, and the village is lovely, but unfortunately, none of us who went for dinner that night feel like coming back.

I hate that this review is as bad as I am giving. My starters were lovely. I was asked if we would like desert just after finishing our starters and was met with confusion when I said I’d like my main meal first. We ordered the roast chicken and the belly pork as mains. Twice the chicken came out and was raw and still no sign of the belly pork (a hour after entering the establishment). The chef was having a bad night but should have been conscientious that all the restaurant could hear him swearing. We were the first customers at 6pm on a Saturday so there was no pressure. The young waitress was under prepared for questions about what was in the menu - it’s not huge! I feel she has been given a bad start in hospitality and hope this does not dissolution her. Having ran a pub for several years I feel justified in my review. We were comped our starters and beer which was appreciated but unfortunately on this occasion not a great experience. I do hope this is a one off. The setting is beautiful and it has a huge act to follow.

Great choice of tasty tapas and big dishes. Great for couples but also ideal for larger parties. Sharing is fun!

We ate at The Cellar 24 on Friday 30th May. 4 of us, my wife & I from Kingsbarns with Brother-in-law & wife from Inverness. From the moment we arrived everything was exceptional. A warm and efficient welcome from all the staff who looked after us throughout the evening. The food was delicious. Dish after dish of mouthwatering food. We felt it was good value considering the high standard of food and service. We cannot wait to return.

We tried lots of different restaurants during our trip to the East Neuk and this was our favourite. A gem of a restaurant, 10/10 food, lovely staff and nice atmosphere.

This restaurant is all about style and quality, sporting a menu that reflects the dedication and skills of the Chef. The Cellar is run by a young couple with a vision of providing fine dining to the ara.

Last minute decision to try this wee eatery on Sunday and managed to get a table for two. We were informed on arrival that the fries were off the menu as they had none left. Disappointed as wanted to try the dirty fries but there’s always the next time to try them as will definitely be back. The hotdog was fantastic and was very filling and so was the burger. Extremely tasty with multiple ingredients not just a burger and onions on a roll. Also had a side order of very very tasty chicken wings with a bbq sauce and a honey sauce. Don’t be fooled by only having fish and chips when in anstruther, this is the place to go for food.

Been meaning to visit for a while after rave reviews from friends and social media. Lastnight we were not disappointed! Superb food! Easily the best hot dog I've ever had! Flavour combinations of food are delicious and the coating on the cauliflower wings and Mother Clucker burger is awsome! Drinks menu was a nice surprise......enjoyed a classic fave cocktail and my first ale, after some advice from the friendly waiting staff! Will for sure be back! Awsome to have this on our doorstep!

Delicious burgers. We had the dirty Scotsman and the classic ox with fries to share. There's a lot of eating in the burgers , great quality ingredients . Will definitely be back 😀

Whilst a modestly small venue, the atmosphere and dishes on offer had something for everyone. Travelling up to see my brother, I've been scarce and we said we would have one treat meal in the week and boy did we choose well. The Ox and Anchor had such a nice touch to it that was modern and distinguishable. I absolutely loved the names of the meals on the menu - give that person a raise! 👏 The caffeinated cocktail (according to my brother) didn't taste strong enough for what he ordered according to him, but I was more than happy with my meal, with starters and with drinks on offer. The Dirty Scotsman I believe it was called was absolutely delicious. Recommend a small party as they did well to accommodate all of us at lunch time and maybe give them a decent heads up for 8 pluses. Staff were lovely, toilet very clean and all friendly for the kiddies as well. Thank you all. Our treat meal was fantastic and stuck out as a great memory in Anstruther.

Fantastic food and good choices on menu and a couple of specials which I had buttermilk chicken onion rings bacon jam . Cauliflower wings were delicious. Good choice of local beers and great staff

Fine friendly service. Delicious smashed burger with pulled pork. Dirty chips with large juicy well cooked prawns - so delicious we ordered more! The chicken wings were beautifully crunchy with fantastic home-made barbecue sauce. Perfect alternative to Anstruther's fish & chips. My dog liked the treat too.

Amazing food, incredible, highly recommend, will be back

Called in today for lunch after a lengthy dog walk. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. We ordered lunch for four and coffees / teas and it was excellent. Without exaggeration - simply the best fish goujon sandwich that I have ever had. The portion size is simply stunning, it was beautifully cooked and cooked to order. Absolutely brilliant. The soup was stunning too. Staff were very friendly and the place is immaculate. Definitely recommend and will return. Was going to take a photo of the sandwich but it was that stunning to look at that I couldn’t wait to start eating!!

Popped in for lunch. All the staff were lovely, very welcoming. The food was really great. Fresh scampi was delicious. Fajitas were so tasty and the sticky toffee pudding was the best I have ever had. Creme brulee was also lovely. Highly recommend. Portions are really big. Deffo be back.

We stayed one night at the Waterfront, great rooms, perfect for a short break by the sea and a really nice breakfast. The staff were great and very helpful. Great location in Anstruther right opposite the wee harbour. I left a couple of presents I had bought in a local shop in my room after leaving and the staff very kindly contacted and snd posted the items yo me which I recieved today. Really impressed and really grateful. 👏👏👏

I'd avoid single Room 6 due to lack of natural light and it was very hot although I did enjoy the spacious bathroom, bath and shower. The waist/height window and skylight in the room made my stay uncomfortable, although the bed was very comfortable and the room was well furnished. There was a fan in the cupboard so the heat must be an issue and the fan did little to help. This is not a hotel but a restaurant with rooms at the back. The breakfast was superb and you can have both continental and traditional options, very high standard with table service and no buffet to contend with. The only disappointment was the watery filter coffee, there's an extra charge if you want proper coffee from the machine. I ate in the restaurant on my first night and the venison was delicious. The service was evasive on the Saturday at times, and wonderful after the weekend on my last day. The Monday team were brilliant and made up for the nonchalant attitude of the weekend staff. Breakfast on Monday departure day was the first time I was asked if I had slept well and treated like a guest. Thank you Monday breakfast team, you totally raised the bar and made me feel great, the place was buzzing with strong leadership and energy.

Excellent venue. Staff extremely friendly and attentive. Restaurant is lovely, great location. Nice choices on the menu, I opted for the smoked haddock, oh lovely. If you're in the area don't miss this out.

Husband and I went to Waterfront in Ainster for fish and chips today. It was after 2pm so past lunchtime rush. Gave our order, waited half an hour and no one had been served. Our order was number 8 and by the time order number one was being called the orders were up at order 27. We left. Total shambles. We go there a lot in and out of season but won't be going back. On a grim November day when you have no customers, read this and weep.

There is no reception/check in desk so check in in in the restaurant which is expected as this is a restaurant with rooms, not a hotel. The member of staff who showed us to our room was lovely and helpful. We were given a family room for 5 but there was only 3 of us staying (we asked for twin beds). This meant we had plenty of room and even had a small sofa and a chair. There was bunkers and each bunk had an individual TV, although these didn't work (my daughter was a bit disappointed) but the main TV worked so ok. It was a hot couple of days and as we were at the top of the buildjng with very small windows this mrant the room was very hot, even with yhd 2 fans privided on. We ate in the restaurant on the first night and had breakfast on both mornings. The food was lovely although the service on the second morning wasn't great to say the least. I seemed to has upset the waitress somehow as when she served my coffee she slammed the cup, cafetiere and milk jug on the table resulting in the milk spilling on the table and walked away. When I asked for a cloth or something to clean the milk with she was very abrupt and borderline rude like i was being a nuisance. Unfortunately this left a bad impression and I don't think I would return. However I must point out that not all the staff were like this.

Loved this place! The burrito bowl was full of varied tasty items and was very filling too. The rice especially was fantastic, and all the veggies were fresh and seasoned and left me feeling good. I tried the rosemary brownie too (!) and was blown away, you could definitely taste the rosemary and the little sprinkling of salt on top really brought everything together. ALSO the cafe is lovely inside with great tunes, and the staff we spoke to today were friendly and the service was quick! A top notch experience, recommended to everyone!

Came in for lunch after a particularly long bus ride from Edinburgh and was really looking for comfort food - this cafe definitely delivered! The menu is small but has quite a few vegetarian options! I ordered the quesadilla which is not traditional but nonetheless it was good! The portion size is perfect too. I also got the rosemary chocolate brownie (which is not a combination I’ve come across before) and was a bit skeptical but that was delicious too. The orange juice is not 100% fresh in the sense that it was probably squeezed in the morning - just something to be aware of if you are particularly sensitive to fermentation flavour (it is mild, but it’s there!) The service is attentive and helpful!

One of the best brunch’s you’ll find in any city. The coffee is quality along with the homemade bread used for the sandwiches. Better than anything we had in STA or EDI.

A lovely cafe with a chilled vibe and lovely staff. We enjoyed everything we had-the chai latte was so comforting-like a hug in a mug 🤗 The food was all tasty as well, we enjoyed the chicken burrito bowl and the Reuben sandwich. The cakes were good too! We liked it here so much that we had breakfast there, then went for a walk and then came back for more chai lattes!

Very nice cafe, great coffee and cakes. Lunch delicious, very good eggs benedict. Staff very friendly.

Loved this cafe - friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. We all enjoyed the delicious coffee and food. Best avocado toast I’ve ever had - topped w harissa roast tomatoes and mushrooms 😋

The most amazing little cafe! We stopped by for lunch over the weekend and had a fantastic meal. Food and coffee was great, definitely recommend a visit

We got great weather and enjoy our seat outside. However the food standard didn’t match the expectation or price. With the fish and chips we were served oven processed chips, we were told after complaining they had ran out of hand cut chips during lunch service. If we had been told before ordering we would have definitely changed the order. We were still charged full price for both our fish and chips which was disappointing and poor service. As you can see below we also had the scallop starter which was £15 for 2 scallops

Amazing food, I recommend the Vietnamese fish kebab, it was amazing, tender, full of flavour and not overcooked! The scallops were so fresh. We are sitting in one of the tables outdoor under the porch admiring the coast. This is a very special place.

We had a great experience and will definitely return the next time we visit the East Neuk. We sat outside and it was a lovely and peaceful atmosphere. The food (shared starters then main course) was very special, and delicious. Lovely drinks, stunning views. Got 2 x kids fish and chips which were perfect for 8 and 11 year old. The service was friendly, warm and efficient, but we never ever felt rushed. Thank you, and we will be back!

Mostly this a note on reservations. I looked at the website multiple times, and it looked like they were only required for dinner. But when we showed up for lunch, they said it was reservation only. We ate in the outside area. It was ok weather, so it was still a nice lunch. The food is very tasty. But it would have been more pleasant to eat inside. (There's a lot of seaweed flies outside.) I peaked upstairs before and after our meal, the inside dining room was half empty both times. So it wasn't so much a matter of being fully booked. I think it's more that the reservation is just required to sit inside. So long story short -- make reservations for lunch. I think you will enjoy it much more.

We came for lunch and the food was lovely. We had the mackerel pate and the roasted octopus - amazing! For mains we had the whole Lobster Thermidor 🦞 with chips and smoked king prawns 🍤 . The taste was unique on the smoked prawns but the Asian dip was nice 👌🏼. It gets busy so always best to book as they do not take walk ins x The staff are attentive and very friendly x

We had the hot smoked salmon n chips and the seafood stew. Very tasty, decent portion sizes

This is a great place and used to only be open in the summer months. But we went today and had a lively surprise as they are OPEN for Autumn too! Must still be a little.known secret .... cos today is ONLY visit in years when it hasn't been totally jam packed.
