A food blogger has given his verdict on what is believed to be the UK's only fish and chip buffet, and he was impressed. Robbie Thompson, known online as @_robbiethompson, visited The Bellrock Restaurant in Arbroath, Scotland, to try the all-you-can-eat experience.
In a video, he described the spread as 'peak, peak Britishness', featuring battered fish, sausages, white pudding, king rib, mushy peas, curry sauce, and desserts, all served with Irn-Bru. 'A buffet of battered fish, battered sausage, battered white pudding, battered king rib – all right by the ocean,' he said.
Thompson spoke to a regular diner who said they visit every week. He concluded: 'This battered buffet extravaganza was class and it only costs £14.99 all you can eat.' The video sparked reactions online, with one viewer joking: 'Not British if it's Scottish, it's Scottish…' The restaurant thanked Thompson for visiting.
Thompson's channel focuses on eateries that feel 'trapped in time', from 1970s-style village restaurants to 1940s cafes. He also reviews unusual spots, such as a Chinese restaurant in a casino basement and a London restaurant serving a £148 duck.
