A gem of Cambeltown and highly recommend. Staff are absolutely lovely, welcoming and friendly.
Everyone gets bread & butter to start with, which, is.phenomonal! They make it themselves and I wish I could buy it.
Plenty of gluten free options.
Fish curry was the star of the show for me. Surf&Turf was apparently fantastic (not gluten free)
Drinks were great!
Only let down was the cullen skink, due to one small bit of haddock it tasted like a creamy potato soup. Which was nice but for a fish restaurant I expected more.
Restaurant has a lovely atmosphere and there is plenty of parking.
Really glad the lovely woman in the RNLI shop recommended it!
Unexpected visit while in Campbelltown to Number Forty Two.
A casual small bistro style with the ‘days’ menu on blackboards.
The oysters were better than Loch Fyne (overrated) with Huge crab claws and crayfish cocktails so fresh and plenty to eat.
Fish curry and a smoked fish platter was beyond my dreams.
Book before arriving as you cannot miss this place.
We had wonderful food for a dinner there. A mix of seafood and game, fishes... Everyone was satisfied with what they got, quality was there. Service started a bit cold but got much better with time. Would definitely come again.
Gemütliches Lokal mit frisch zubereiteten Gerichten. Wir waren an 3 nachfolgenden Tagen hier und haben jeden Tag ein anderes super Menue erhalten. Die Gerichte sind fein abgeschmeckt und sehr liebevoll dekoriert.
From the moment you step into Number 52 the promise of freshness is evident. Their claim to serve very fresh fish. The meticulous attention to quality is notable, from the expertly sliced tuna sashimi that melts in your mouth to the robust flavors of the prawns, salmon, and langoustine that are cooked to perfection. Their garlic butter is an aromatic delight that enhances each dish without overpowering it. If you're in search of a dining experience where the spices and ingredients harmonize in a symphony of flavors, this restaurant
is a must-visit. Every bite testifies to their dedication to quality and culinary expertise. Highly recommended!
Fantastic menu and great selection especially sea food and generous portions.
Plenty of Gluten Free options too.
The Crayfish cocktail was a big hit and even inspired some Salt Bae impersonation.
Service was great and the chef was personable too, only downside was the need for one of the waitresses to sit on the floor & deconstruct several tables while we where eating. Not her fault, she was obviously directed to do so but did take the edge of the atmosphere.
Overall well worth a visit.
Best fish I’ve ever had. Not quite enough mushy peas but I asked for a few more but arrived a tad too later than expected. I would definitely eat here again. The tartare sauce was really good too and this beetroot salad sides was delicious but I couldn’t eat it again because my teeth are not the greatest but that’s a whole other story
Can't say enough good things about Number 42 -- the food here rivals the top restaurants in Edinburgh and Glasgow, and offers local specialties such as oysters and halibut from Gigha and mussels from Mull.
Seafood platter was first rate, and the seafood curry was superb, reminiscent of a Thai curry generously flavoured with kaffir lime leaves. Only regret is that we didn't return for brunch but will be sure to do so on our next visit. PS - bookings essential for both dinner and brunch.
Very nice premium experience in small Campbeltown! Food is pricey but worth it as quality is top notch. If there are noisy parties of people it can get loud though.
excellent food and service highly recommend

If you want seafood, you will simply not find a better meal or a better restaurant.
My wife joined me for what we both agreed were probably the best oysters we've ever had anywhere in the world; they were large, fresh, and the house sauce and cardamom pickles were the perfect complement.
I then followed with the tuna 'sashimi', which was accompanied by the best preparation of wasabi I've experienced outside of (sadly now-defunct due to covid) Sake No Hana, formerly of London. The beautiful slice of fish was treated perfectly, and the accompanying flavors peerless.
I finished with what had led me there to begin with: the Cullen Skink. I frankly haven't had a bowl anywhere in Scotland that was anything but delicious, but I am now at a disadvantage for all future endeavors with the iconic soup. There is, in my personal opinion, no possibility for better. I aim to prove myself wrong, if by no other means than a return to Campbeltown as soon as I am able to eagerly take a seat at Number 42.
I was so impressed by the food that I almost forgot to mention my delightfully helpful server, Chelsea.
Our first visit and we were very impressed. From the lunch menu I had the vegetable curry and my wife had the lobster macaroni and cheese, both really delicious. Friendly service too. It's great to have a new dining option in Campbeltown, recommended
Had a excellent family dinner at Forty Two this week. All the food was delicious and beautifully presented and cooked.
The service was attentive in just the right way.
Hope to return.
What a find!
Really good food, lovely setting and super friendly staff. Can not fault them.
The homemade butter alone makes a visit worthwhile.
Fresh, tasty fish dishes with a twist. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal, the service was friendly and accommodating, brilliant 👏🏻

Food presentation was first class. Food taxed good,steak a little bland... all in all,decent place would return
