A harbour side location makes Graziano’s the archetypal chip shop experience. Beloved by locals and tourists alike, the weekend queues are testament to the quality of the food, which is sourced from local suppliers in Ayr. The friendly banter between staff and customers is a testament to the relaxed, friendly atmosphere the Graziano’s team have created. Located in the small seaside town of Girvan, this bright and welcoming café come chip-shop offers a large selection of deep-fried delights, including the speciality blaggis – which brings together haggis and black pudding in one battered parcel for those who just won’t be limited to a singular supper order. Portion sizes are generous, a large fish tea involves two pieces of freshly cooked haddock, squishy white bread, pleasingly vinegary mushy peas and the ubiquitous hot pot of tea, all of which can be enjoyed alongside a view of the boats moored in the small, picturesque harbour.
