Our first visit yesterday we both had the “small” cod and chips!! Small it definitely is NOT! It was absolutely delicious. The cod was fresh and white and the batter was heavenly. The chips were lovely too. Would highly recommend this lovely little chippy. Lovely staff too.

Been here many times and the food is good. However I was disappointed today as when I arrived for lunch I was told they had ' run out of food ' and that they close at 2 pm . It was just before 1. 55 pm and I appreciate I had left it late , however , I noticed there were sausages available but it seems they didn't want to cook any fresh chips. I will not be going there again but must say all the staff are very pleasant but today I felt let down

My family went in for a large order: kebabs and fish and burgers and chips. The food was all amazing, best quality we could ask for with no wait times at all. The staff are so friendly and ready to help with any request. My whole family loved it, will definitely be our new chippy from now on!

Chips cooked just how I like them! Ordered a large cod but I'd consider it a small. Fish a tiny bit chewy at the ends but good in the middle. I don't like that they still use polystyrene trays, plastic forks & plastic bags.

Place looks great, nice staff, tried this place twice, petty problems put me off a 3rd time, 1st time 25 minutes wait on fish&chips;, not a big deal, the portion of chips for my son where glued to the news paper! (Not literally) but jeeeze, had to get a cake knife and carefully scrape across the paper to get the chips off, leaving half stuck to the paper, and half in a bowl which resembled mash potato by this point. Exactly the same on the next visit, no idea if its the potato \paper or the oil. No idea, thought it just me, until I seen social media post about the exact same complaint. Don't let this out you off, not the end of the world, all food cooked fresh,staff are lovely, only English chip shop in the town. May be I just went on a bad day. May be ill yet again..

Went to the new chippy recently and the fish was perfect and so were the chips. Usually from other chip shop in Old Colwyn most of it went in the bin. Stale fish and ‘poor’ chips. Alex’s shop must be using good oil and cook fish to order. It’s great to have a good chippy round the corner. Well done.

Have bought food here four or five times while visiting Conwy with my wife. The food never disappoints. Cooked to order. Great variety of pizza, kebabs and burgers and lovely fresh salad. Hassan, the owner is friendly and welcoming. The shop has been there for thirty years so that is a good sign of quality. Steve and Mel. Manchester.

Was really thankful to find that even out of season this place was open and serving hot, freshly made doughnuts - because sometimes you just need to embrace nostalgia and a doughnut is a good way to do that. We'd trekked around Llandudno and Conwy and nowhere else seemed to do them on the day so really appreciative this place was open.

We went to Llandudno for the day with the specific idea of having fish and chips "at the seaside". We googled reviews and Nana's came up as the top review so we headed there. The staff were nice and friendly but unfortunately the food was not up to scratch. We were expecting beautiful, fresh, quality fish but it was sadly lacking and slightly overcooked. The chips were greasy, and the taste of the oil lingered all day. We've had far better fish and chips from our hometown in the West Midlands, which is as far away from the sea that you can get. Completely disappointing, must do better.
