I visited Nico's after a weekend of hiking in the Scottish Highlands. I was very hungry and ordered cod and chips. Chips were good, fish was good and I was full afterwards. It cost around £5.50 I think. I got talking to the owner afterwards, Josh as I guessed he was Indian and I love Indian food. He's from Pakistan and is running the shop the last 27 years. We got talking about different Indian dishes and he said Indian food is easy, first yiu have to make the Masala, then yiu can add what ever you like to it. I quickly grabbed a pen and his order book from the counter and starting writing down as he was calling out the ingredients. I made a Chana Masala lastnight and it was lovely, I was lo...
We ate here as a family of four, place was ok, nothing special 'just a cafe/chippie ', had to pick different food three times as they did not have what two of us wanted, was told they stopped serving breakfasts at two and it was only 1:40pm??. Food was ok, portions also ok. I would say that the one thing that let the place down was the staff behind the counter, didn 't seem interested in the customers, which should be their priority in the service industry... Quite pricey for what it was, I 'm sure there are better to be had in Fort Wiliam.
Stopped here last Friday, passing through Fort William and looking for somewhere to eat. We ordered 1 fish and chips and 1 steak and kidney pie and chips and sat in to eat them. The batter on the fish was horrible, grey looking and soggy. The pastry on the pie was soggy. The chips were so dry and tasted of cheap cooking oil. Needed a lot of salt and vinegar to make them edible. Small salad served with food was ok. So disappointing.
I 've been to Nico 's a few times, and it does exactly what it says on the tin , it 's a cafe which does chips, kebabs,pizzas and breakfast dishes. It also does teas, coffees and hot chocolates, as well as other cold drinks. All of which are pretty basic, but well-prepared. (MUCH better than McDonalds!

We were somewhat apprehensive about entering this establishment but after inquiring we were allowed to sit inside with our two small dogs. The food, service and staff were excellent and enjoyed by all. Paerticular thanks to Nico a very pleasant individual.
Only OK, wouldn't rush back. Been to a lot better chippers and would expect such in the land of the deep fried everything. Not sure why I ended up with salad with my haggis and chips?!! Warm coke too and it was early evening so no excuse there.
Two ladies serving not particularly welcoming, seemed more interested in their mobile phones. The chips were ok but the fish was pretty average, not particularly tasteful with poor batter.
Came here after climbing Ben Nevis. The reviews in here look terrible but tbh it was nice. Good fish and chips and the place seemed clean. Staff were friendly.
