Absolutely huge portions and delicious food. Definitely the best restaurant in Bearsden. The creamed corn with the steak is so good and the scallops were gorgeous too. Compliments to the chef as every dish was seasoned and the sauces were delicious. Very good value. Will be back soon.

What else can you order but a fish supper when you try a posh fish n chip shop. Generous portions , well presented and fish was so soft it breaks apart as soon as you cut into I love a posh chippy and this one did not disappoint

Lovely place. Attractively decorated with a nice ambience. Food was delicious - we had queen scallops, calamari, mussels, monkfish curry, scampi and no one left anything on their plate. Service was efficient and friendly. Will definitely be back.

Friendly staff and excellent take away - we had mini haddock supper and breaded sole goujons - big portions and best take away fish I've had in ages.

Great tasting food and lovely waitress. Only disappointment was my eyes stinging from the smoke from the fish fryers down the stairs coming up. Needs a better ventilation system.

We had the scallops for starters and the fish supper for mains. Both were lovely. The fish supper was a good, big portion. BYOB though they are also licensed.

My wife and I were here on opening night and it was almost perfect! The food was delicious and nice-sized portions too. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and you can see the owner has an eye for detail. Just a wee few things that can be improved to make this restaurant top-notch. 1) It was opening night so a few "teething" problems which is very forgiveable obviously. Just a little bit too long to wait for our orders probably because of the takeaway orders downstairs. 2) The liquor licence is coming I believe, which will help as the soft drinks option is not something which could be sustained I reckon! 3) The heat upstairs from the fryers downstairs is quite unbearable as I had to take my jumper off. A few customers mentioned this also. Perhaps fans or an extraction system downstairs could k Keep the heat from rising to the restaurant part! 4) The 3 girls and male host were very friendly and couldn't be any nicer...no complaint there! All in all a lovely evening and this can be improved to make this a favourite fish restaurant in the area. We will be back. We loved it and we both wish the restaurant well. May it go from strength to strength.

I tried Scallop's Tale for the first time yesterday and I can confidently say that it is the best fish and chips I have ever had in Glasgow. I had the food delivered in and the first thing I noticed was the quality of the packaging. It screams fine dining whilst still being able to reveal itself as a humble chippy that anyone can order on a Friday night. You can instantly tell that they have spent a lot of time and effort into this. Solidifying that this establishment is here to stay and is able to compete and win against only the most revered competitors in Glasgow. Upon opening my fish supper the first thing I noticed was the portion size of the fish, especially in these times, they did not stiff the customer on mediocre food portions which I adored! The fish itself had a beautiful light batter, with a crispy and flaky exterior, whilst still impressively managing to maintain that gorgeous soft and tender interior throughout the fish. Despite being such an extremely generous portion, it seems they have managed to perfect their frying technique to cook the fish, ensuring there are no uneven parts and that every bite is heavenly. The next thing I noticed were the various sides which the fish supper itself had come with. The chips themselves were exactly what I look for in a chippy, they have that distinct soft texture and fluffiness to them, whilst still maintaining a crispy outside. The most memorable moment for me personally, when indulging in the chips and most delightful homemade smushed pees, was the homemade tartar sauce. The tartar sauce is something I expect out of only the most top quality and awards winning fish and chips restaurants. It was something I finished completely and found myself returning to my roots as a child, scraping the bottom of the tub with my fingers. Overall Scallop's Tale is something of a diamond in the rough. The market is very competitive and saturated, however this establishment very impressively still manages to stand out despite these challenges and whatever their technique is or what they are trying to achieve, it seems to be working and I am here for it. Thank you Scallop's Tale.

Finally, a great meal in Bearsden. We enjoyed the varied festive menu so much! From fresh scallops to beautiful surf and turf. All fresh food and cooked with tasty accompaniments. You will not believe the size of the fish, scallops cookes to perfection. We were a party of 8 and all enjoyed every course so much!! Staff were lovely and attentative. We were so pleasantly surprised, this is far better than just posh fish and chips.... Our new favourite local restaurant!!! We can't wait to go back and try to the new menus. Thank you Scallops Tail team.x

We had a beautiful meal on Saturday evening the food was great and the service was excellent the two waitresses were so helpful and the “bring your own bottle “ idea is superb. However later that night the smell of chip pan fat from our clothes was unbearable ..I’m not sure if this problem could be solved but it would possibly keep us from returning...solve the problem and they have a top restaurant.
