Best Chippy.

We saw on social media that Gino's Fryer had a Vegan menu so we drove all the way from Falkirk to try it, We were not disappointed, I had my first ever Vegan Pizza Crunch & it was AMAZING!! My Fiancé had the Vegan Ranch Burger which he said was delicious 😋 The girls that work in the chippy are really lovely & do a grand job at getting the orders out in a decent time 👍🏻 #Veganuary #Veganuary

Pros: Separate Vegan Menu with lots to choose from., They fry the Vegan food separate from other food., Staff are really nice.

Cons: None.

Great vegan chippy options

Was really spoiled for choice for vegan options at this fish and chip shop in Largs, all cooked in a seperate fryer. Just across street when you get off the train in Largs.

Pros: Lots of vegan options

Proper vegan chippy experience

This was my first vegan chippy and I was pleasantly surprised. Loads of vegan options on a separate menu and cooked in a separate frier. The food was tasty and obviously decadent!

Wee gem of a chippy

Lots of vegan options here, not sure there could be anymore. I had a vegan sausage supper as that was my usual before I went vegan, it didn't disappoint. I wish I'd had room to try one of the many cakes on offer too.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Nice food, Uses separate fryers

Cons: Cooks meat and fish

Don’t miss out on a seaside tradition

Gino’s had a great vegan menu to choose from. It was busy today when we visited, I had a tofish and chips which was spot on – and came with free vegan tartare sauce and a pot of mushy peas. Bonus! I’m hoping to go back over the summer to try the plant based scampi. It was a beautiful sunny day in Largs today, if you’re vegan or plant based or vegetarian get yourself to Largs for a Gino’s – you don’t have to miss out on a traditional fish and chips on your next trip to the seaside; they’ve plenty of meat free options! They also have a regular menu for everyone else and seem to be one of the most popular chippies in town. It can be busy with a bit of a wait at peak times, but it is worth it.

Pros: Good menu, lots of options, Great prices – cheap as chips! (Pardon the pun!)

Cons: Can be slow (20+ mins) for takeaway at peak times

Vegan chippy options by the seaside

Seems to have a varied and lengthy vegan menu. Went for tofish and pizza crunch. Sadly the tofish was lacking any flavour of fish and felt greasy. The pizza crunch was fine.

Pros: Lots of options, By seaside

Lovely food however saddened by customer relations

Always use this chippy and have done for a long time, tonight when I was in I was served by a young girl with blonde hair and sunglasses on her head who quite clearly wasn’t interested in being polite or helpful to any customers, the shop was busy however when customers were trying to ask a question or order she was very blunt and frankly rude. Such a shame as this is very off putting, several other customers commented on the attitude which caused an atmosphere in the shop and could potentially lead to loss of custom.
Can’t fault the food in any way however.

Pros: Food great , Great choice , Reasonable prices

Cons: Staff attitude

My favourite fish and chip shop

Separate vegan menu, fully marked and even including some desserts. Food is fantastic particularly the black pudding, calamari and pizza crunch. Can wait a while but understandable as theyre always busy.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Reasonably priced

Cons: Sometimes a wait

Worth the trip to Largs

Worth the train journey to Largs. An amazing range of options, all very reasonably priced. There are a few desserts too. Just be prepared for a wait as they are very popular.

Pros: Wide range of vegan options, Very reasonably priced, Tastes fresh

Best Vish&Chips

Not only because of the Vegan fish and chips, the vegan menu they have makes Gino's the most integrated vegan chippy I've ever seen. Vegan:
-Fish & chips,
-Fish cakes,
-Fish fingers,
-Calamari cake
-Fried sausage
-Haggis
-Black pudding
-Fried pizza (I know, sounds weird, but it's tradicional in Scottish chippys!!)
-Fritters

...
Also vegan cakes available.

Pros: Full chippy vegan menu, Vegan cakes, Vegan fish and chips

Great chippy

Extensive vegan menu with all the things you would expect, The owner makes a lot of the vegan food herself, and buys in what she can't make. She's really proud of her vegan menu, as she should be. Haggis fritters are the bomb.

Pros: Separate vegan menu , Everything fried separately , Knowledgeable staff

Cons: It's still a regular chippy.

Worth the trip

It was a bit of a trek to Largs but totally worth it for the only place to get a vegan pizza crunch. The staff were also really friendly and let us sample their vegan battered sausage when I asked about the difference between that and the veggie sausage supper. Unfortunately they didn't have any vegan fish for the fish and chips as they'd sold out. They also had some vegan cakes on sale. We had to wait about 20 minutes but fresh to order and given their service and options it's to be expected they'd be busy.

Pros: Lots of options, Reasonably priced, Friendly staff

Beautiful Food

Been to Gino's a few times now and it has never disappointed.
The vegan menu is large with vegan fish,scampi, nuggets, sausages to name a few items.
Always hot, crispy batter. Staff take care to make sure everything is separate and happy to answer any questions.
Highly recommend!

Pros: Lots of vegan options. Knowledgeable staff

Cultured chippy

As a chippy it caters to vegans and gf people with seperate menus with well over a dozen options for vegans. You do need to order in advance as the vegan stuff is all frozen so can be a wait of half an hour or more but its nice to have a vegan chippy option in the area.

Pros: Vegan chippy

Cons: Long wait time if not pre ordered

Amazing chipper

Found this through the happy cow app as we were in Largs and couldn’t believe we could get vegan options at a chipper!
Loved it, first chipper is years. Loads of choice, both burgers and chip shop usuals but all vegan versions.
Staff were good, gave us the ingredients sheet along with the menu and they were very friendly.
Had vegan fish fingers and chips and eat the lot.

Pros: Lots of options , Ingredients available, Great price and staff

Amazing veg fish&chips!

This chippy would deserve special attention even if it was situated in a vegan-friendly place like Glasgow, but in Largs their offering is simply stellar: The vegan menu is a full page of small printed items and everything we had tasted amazing. (The standard vegan fish is the absolute best though.) Prices are really fair as well and portions are large.

Pros: Amazingly large vegan menu, Situated in not-so-vegan Largs, next to the sea, Very good prices

Vegan Options! In Largs!

“Fish” and chips was great. Fish alternative was tofu based, wrapped in seaweed and breadcrumbs and fried. Very tasty. Just wonderful to have somewhere with multiple vegan options in Largs.

In other chippies it’s hard to be confident that even the chips aren’t cooked in lard, or the same fryer as meat. No more!

Not important to me, but they have an extensive gluten free menu too.

Pros: Vegan options!, Tasty!

Cons: A little slow (but food cooked fresh!), Mushy peas in a plastic pot :(

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Good priced, Vegan specials
