The popular chippy is famed for its legendary fish suppers, dog-friendly dining, and cheeky take on traditional favourites.
And its most recent creation is described as being "a brekkie to be proud of" on the mornings when "only Pure Filth will do".
Bosses have said the new menu, dubbed the Pure Filthy Breakfast, is perfect for anyone who overdid it the night before or is just crawling home after a night out.
They said it's also a tasty option for workers whose jobs require them to get up super early during the wee hours.
The new breakfast menu will be served to punters between 9am and 11am almost daily.
And the new headline option is the £8.95 Bigger Bites, which is a base of golden hash brown bites, topped with a fried egg, smothered in melted cheese, and loaded with your choice of sauces.

It will also include the option of either smoked sausage bits, crispy bacon, or a veggie sausage.
The choices of sauces on offer are good old-fashioned brown sauce, tomato ketchup, spicy chipotle mayo or hot creamy horseradish for anyone who fancies something a little bolder.
But for those who aren't so keen on something so heavy in the morning, Cromars is also serving classic breakfast rolls.
Customers can pick up a bacon, sausage or veggie roll instead if they're looking for something easy.

Or those who're looking for something lighter, there's the new 'Boost Your Breakfast Box' for £5.95.
This includes a Greek yoghurt with chocolate granola and a Monster Mango Loco yoghurt shake.
Bosses say this is the "ultimate morning wake-up call", adding: "Still Cromars. Just that little bit cleaner!"
Wendy Napthine-Frame, owner of Cromars, said: 'We've built our reputation on serving great-tasting food with a side of fun and banter.
Flavour-packed dishes are what we're known for. Our new 'Pure Filth Breakfast' is no exception – it's big, bold and gloriously indulgent
Wendy Napthine-Frame
"At Cromars, we don't take ourselves too seriously – but we do take our food seriously.
"Fresh fish, top-quality ingredients and flavour-packed dishes are what we're known for.
"Our new 'Pure Filth Breakfast' is no exception – it's big, bold and gloriously indulgent.
"A proper St Andrews chippy breakfast for locals, students, workers and visitors to St Andrews, really anyone who knows that sometimes only something outrageously filthy will hit the spot.'
It's not the first time that Wendy has hit headlines because of her incredible creations.
In May last year, Cromars launched a special menu for dogs to become Scotland's first canine-friendly chippy.
The menu includes £2 beef sausages and £1.50 'puppucinnos' - whipped cream that is usually served in an espresso-sized cup or a small bowl.
It also offers free dog biscuits, and 50 per cent of sales from the canine meals will be donated to the SSPCA.
Wendy said the menu was inspired by the amount of customers who visit the eatery with their four-legged friends.
The businesswoman, who also has three dogs of her own, also wanted to help owners enjoy their suppers in peace by offering pet meals.
AWARD-WINNING CHIPPY
Cromars was established in 2013 and is one of Scotland's best-loved fish and chip shops.
It specialises in making the very best fish and chips, adhering to three key pillars of quality: fish is only ever cooked to order, only the very best 'angel cut' Haddock is used, caught from the North Sea, and locally sourced ingredients.
Cromars Classic Fish and Chips in St Andrews is multi-award-winning for the quality of its fish and chips.
It ws crowned 'Best Fish Supper on the East Coast of Scotland' at the 2023 Scotland's Fish & Chip Awards.
Cromars' owner, Wendy Napthine-Frame, has fishing in her blood.
Born and raised in Peterhead, the largest landing port for fish in the UK, with a large extended family all working in the fishing industry either on boats or in the markets, Wendy has an innate understanding of what constitutes the best quality fish, along with the connections to source the very best that Scotland has to offer.
Wendy regularly takes a 'fry' around to the homes of friends and family.
Forget wine, chocolate or flowers, a fry is a box of the very best fish to eat as a treat.
At the time, she said: "We are a nation of dog lovers. I have three dogs myself, so I know how much people love them and want them around as part of the family.
"We see so many people travelling with their dogs now, especially as we come into the summer season, when the city is teeming with tourists and visitors.
'We are blessed in St Andrews with wonderful beaches and countryside, offering perfect walks for dogs and their owners, and for years Cromars has welcomed them all afterwards for a fish supper.
'I've often thought we should create a special menu for dogs, not least so that owners can eat our award-winning fish and chips in peace.
"Without the pleading eyes and the nose-nudges that as dog owners we all understand!
'So, we have done just that with the introduction of our new menu, which is catering for doggies and doing good by helping support the tremendous work that the SSPCA does in Scotland.'
