Monster Fish & Chips Co.

You'll find yourself pulling up to this spot right on the main drag through Fort Augustus, and honestly, it's worth stopping for. The batter has that satisfying crunch—golden, not greasy—and the fish inside stays flaky and tender. Their chips are chunky and substantial, the kind that actually taste like potatoes. It's straightforward stuff executed well, which is rarer than you'd think. The place does proper business, especially weekends, so expect to wait a bit, but the staff keeps things moving and the food comes out hot.
