  • 1. The Silver Darling

    $$$

    Huge windows overlook the harbor and beach at this quayside favorite in a former customhouse, long one of Aberdeen's most acclaimed restaurants. The French-inspired menu focuses on fish: try the crab bisque with samphire to start, then move on to a lavish seafood platter of scallops, mussels, langoustes, prawns, and cockles.

  • 2. Linda's Fish & Chips

    $

    This casual place serves the freshest fish, caught in nearby Buckie and cooked to crispy perfection (gluten-free batter is available, too). There's a seating area inside, but it's best for takeout. You can walk down the hill and head toward the harbor for some benches with sweeping views: a nice spot for a meal.

    54 Seafield St., Cullen, Moray, AB56 4SW, Scotland
    01542-840202

    Known For

    • Fish battered to perfection
    • Surf and turf burgers
    • Deep-fried squid rings
  • 3. Rockpool

    $

    This modish fish restaurant has remarkably reasonable prices for the quality of the food and size of the servings. Try the rich Cullen skink (a creamy smoked-haddock soup), a pint glass of fat prawns served with mayo and oat bread, or some freshly fried squid with a lime sauce, all beautifully presented on wooden boards.

  • 4. The Ship Inn

    $$

    This former coaching inn is exactly where you want to take nourishment after a bracing walk from Dunnottar Castle. Refurbishment has taken away much of the history, but wood paneling and rattan chairs make it comfortable, and huge new windows provide views of the harbor. The mixed grill is worth the splurge.

    01569-762617

    Known For

    • Traditional Cullen skink
    • Sweeping views of Stonehaven Bay
    • Massive mixed grills
