An award-winning Scottish chippy is getting into the Christmas spirit with a new limited-edition festive supper menu.
Taking their signature batter to ‘new heights’, the playful twist on a traditional Christmas dinner from Cromars in St Andrews features crispy battered turkey served with a rich gravy and tangy cranberry sauce for dipping.
All your favourite trimmings are included with the team also introducing pigs in blankets, stuffing, Brussels sprouts and seasoned carrots to their fryers alongside portions of crispy, golden chips.
For those with a sweet tooth, Cromars will offer a battered mince pie served with warm custard and the option to pair the dessert with a Bailey’s infused hot chocolate.
Wendy Napthine-Frame, owner of Cromars, said: “We love finding new and novel ways to excite our customers by reinventing traditional fish and chip shop dishes.
“We’re confident our customers will enjoy our festive menu, which puts a fun, crispy, golden twist on a family-favourite tradition and brings a little Christmas cheer to the holiday celebrations.”

Born and raised in Peterhead, the largest landing port for fish in the UK, with a large extended family all working in the fishing industry either on boats or in the markets, Napthine-Frame has “an innate understanding of what constitutes the best quality fish, along with the connections to source the very best that Scotland has to offer”.
Cromars was established in 2013, going on to become one of Scotland’s best-loved fish and chip shops and the winner of awards such as ‘Best Fish Supper on the East Coast”.
It specialises in making the very best fish and chips adhering to three key pillars of quality: fish is only ever cooked to order, only the very best ‘angel cut’ Haddock is used, caught from the North Sea, and locally sourced ingredients.
Earlier this year, the venue became Scotland’s first dog-friendly fish and chip shop, with the launch of a dedicated menu for four-legged friends.
The new dog-friendly menu, costing £2.00, includes beef sausages and ‘puppucinnos’ with 50% of all sales generated donated to the Scottish SPCA to help tackle the animal welfare crisis in Scotland and improve support for animals and people across the country.
Cromars is located at 1 Union Street in St Andrews.
