Like a lot of others we came to Mallaig on the Jacobite steam train. Looking for some where to eat we were lucky to go into the Fishmarket Restaurant. The staff were welcoming and friendly. There were 6 of us in our group and 5 of us had fish and chips and one had @mcintyreandcompanyfortwilliam scampi. I decided on a starter and went for the hand dived scallops. They were the sweetest scallops that I have every had. Well done to all in this wonderful restaurant. @mcintyreandcompany We had a good fish chowder for lunch, and quick and kind service. Service was quite flexible. A bit busy - being close to the station.
