Right at the end of the harbour road, where yachts have given way to fishing boats, this set-up has two parts, both worthwhile. The Oyster Bar offers excellent fresh seafood in a smart, uncluttered setting. Next door, the Wee Hurrie does fish and chips, with excellent fish choices like sea bass. Order the fritto misto to try different varieties.
