"When we saw this place from the outside we were not sure what to expect. It was 3:30pm(ish and we were hungry. In Europe this is a less than normal time to eat out unless you go fast food. In Scotland, we didnt see many fast food places so we took a chance on this place and we are glad we did. Not only is this place quaint, small, and inviting...but the owners (clearly a couple are very friendly. It was clear after only a few minutes that this was a local favorite stop for candy and quick drinks. I saw at least two guests pop in while I waited for my sit in meal and talk to the owners using their name. I had a family of four, three of us eating as my infant was too small to eat but she did cry a bit which they didnt seem to mind. My husband ordered a fish and chips platter, me the spicy chicken plate (I was kindly warned of its spicyness , my 6 year old the chicken nuggets (or whatever they were called plate. It did seem to take a minute for our food to be cooked, since it was all fried I expected it quickly...once it arrived I knew why. It seems only my plate was not hand-breaded. My husband was presented with a generous portion of what he called 'absolutely delicious ' fish and fries. My sons plate consisted of a generous portion as welll, which after tasting also seemed hand breaded, delicious! My plate however, while yummy and only a bit spicy (I love spicy things! had what looked like frozen patties of spicy breaded chicken. It was good, I ate it all. The fries were crisp but the color of them was different, I couldn 't tell if their oil needed to be changed or if they made their own fries. Regardless they were delicious and we 're eaten! They provided a surplus of condiments at the table. Packets of ketchup, malt vinegar, and euro style mayo...and also something called 'brown sauce '...of course I was curious! This sauce could be totally normal for Scotland but as an American traveling abroad, I can only say it kinda tasted like bbq sauce mixed with maybe mustard and vinegar; I didnt love the sauce but it was a fun try.Upon payment, after we ate it seemed wild expensive...the walls priced were not outrageous, alas somehow all three of us costed £30?! Not what you would expect from a corner candy store cafe. Of course we paid it, didnt argue. I also wanted to try their candy...I saw something in a bag called 'treacle candy '...tbh I had no idea what a treacle or treacle candy was. So I asked, he (the owner humored me...trying to describe a clearly normal UK candy. Afterwards I felt as if I had asked something absurd like explain what a butterscotch candy tastes like?!I tried them, mannn were they addictive! All around we were content, and felt full aside from the cost of the food. I would recommend stopping here if you are in the area for a yummy fried dish and some friendly folk."
