Anyone after big portions in Elgin is spoilt for choice.
Having tried some of the mouth-watering menu items from the restaurants and food trucks listed below, I can guarantee that you won’t be feeling peckish after tucking into one (or a few) of their dishes.
Here are my top recommendations for places to visit for food (in big quantities) in Elgin.
Nae Bad Food
The garden of the Kirkie Bar is where you’ll spot Nae Bad Food, run by Buckie chef Danny Grant.
Expect vibrant grub made with flavoursome ingredients. Dirty fries, chicken boxes and burgers are among the menu options.
To keep up to date on opening hours, visit the Nae Bad Food Facebook page.
Address: 50 Main Street, New Elgin, Elgin IV30 6BH
Ashvale
There’s no denying that you’re guaranteed a hefty portion of food at the Ashvale. And to top it all off, the dishes are reasonably priced.
If you’re feeling up to the challenge, why not order the iconic Ashvale Whale?
Finish it by yourself and eat a second whale on the house or claim a free sweet of your choice. Desserts include sticky toffee pudding, a knickerbocker glory, cheesecake of the day, chocolate fudge cake, caramel apple pie, or three scoops of ice cream.
Address: 11 Moss Street, Elgin IV30 1LU
Humble Burger
You can’t go wrong with a visit to Humble Burger for some top-class food in big portions in Elgin.
I’ve tried everything from the halloumi burrito and Humble classic burger to the salt and chilli fries. All the menu items are large, eye-catching and, of course, delicious.
Address: Munro Place, Elgin IV30 4LL
The Big Orange
Acclaimed Moray chef Mike McGarrie is the founder of The Big Orange, a street food truck that has been operating since 2017.
It can be spotted at more than 20 sites in and around Moray, including Elgin, Buckie, Forres, and Keith. And Mike always keeps his followers updated on where the van is heading on the business’ Facebook page.
Having also tried some dishes from The Big Orange, you’re guaranteed to feel both full and satisfied after tucking into your dish(es) of choice.
Address: B&Q Car Park, Edgar Road, Elgin IV30 6BA
Qismat Tandoori
You can take your food away or sit in at Qismat Tandoori in Elgin. Regardless, you’ll be met with food in generous portions.
The menu boasts a range of dishes and plenty of them, too, so you’ll struggle to whittle down your choice.
Address: 204 High Street, Elgin, IV30 1BA
