Loch Fyne, the branded seafood restaurant chain has 24 restaurants which range from the shores of Loch Fyne in Scotland throughout the rest of the UK.

Loch Fyne's determination is to serve the freshest natural seafood in a simple manner, brasserie style, all through the day. No fussy elaboration is the watch word, the raw materials must be allowed to show all their freshness largely unadorned.

Oysters and mussels from Loch Fyne's own fishery are key to the menu. They feed naturally and there are no artificial inputs at all. Loch Fyne's king and queen scallops are mostly dived for or grown in lantern nets. Langoustines are caught in baited creels which allow the juveniles to escape. Wild salmon is now so endangered that it should no longer be exploited commercially. As an alternative Loch Fyne strives to source as near to pure organic salmon as is possible to find.

The core menu at Loch Fyne is the same in all of its outsets and thanks to prompt overnight deliveries, quality and freshness are uniform. Variety is achieved by a number of special dishes which bring interest and change on a daily basis.
