About The Portlethen Chipper
The Portlethen Chipper is a fish and chips restaurant in Aberdeen, on Muirend Ct. Fish and chips anchor the menu, and pizzas, kebabs and burgers sit beside them for anyone who wants something other than fish. Two of the non-fish dishes are the Chicken Bursa Kebab and the hell fire chicken wings. The restaurant is walk-in, so there is no booking to arrange. The owner says the kitchen uses locally sourced ingredients.

Customer Review Summary
Fish and chips is the draw most reviewers name, described as fresh, crispy and crunchy, with the chips called delicious. Pizza comes up close behind, with one reviewer calling it perfection and another top tier. Beyond that, diners praise a juicy, well-marinated kebab with loaded fries, a hoagie wrap, garlic bread with chicken and rice, and wings with hell fire sauce. Portions are called generous and the pricing reasonable. The one complaint comes from a reviewer who had enjoyed two earlier visits but found the chips almost cold on a third, apparently sitting for a while, though the fish and fritters were hot and freshly made. Staff are repeatedly described as friendly and welcoming, and one reviewer notes the service stayed quick even on a busy Saturday night.
