Allports Fish & Chips in Gwynedd

this is so bad its almost unbelievable ordered fish chips and peas.asked how long the fish would take and answered with a grunt , this place makes a funeral home seem like party central ,frowns everywhere and my bag of food dropped on the counter no thank you or eye contact ,certainly will not return

Excellent service very helpful kids eat free,friendly staff. The food excellent and the children's menu very good and plenty of it,, 4 very happy little girls.

What a lovely little restaurant. Food was one of the best fish and chips we've had and we've had a few around the UK. Staff so friendly and couple be more helpful. Went in with my partner,daughter and mum who is in a wheelchair and nothing we asked was too much. Little hidden gem if you go down these ways definately try it you won't be disappointed , plus is was very cheap too.

We ordered take way cod and chips from this restaurant and really enjoyed it. The fish was fresh and crispy and what we ordered was cooked to order. We would definitely visit again.

Just shy of FIVE pounds I paid for a large chips and curry sauce!? Nearly fainted when I was told the price. Not to mention this is the size I was given for a portion of LARGE chips… WHAT!?!? Talk about conning customers. Won’t be back. Disgusting charging that price for a burger size container of chips claiming it to be large. *was charged for large and this is what I was given so it wasn’t a mistaken wrong size chips.

Been using the takeaway chip shop for years, but great to see the cafe now open. Fab staff, very friendly and helpful, great food

Great Fish and Chips, cooked fresh on ordering. Spotlessly clean inside, very friendly helpful staff. Highly recommended

8 of us arrived in about 3pm. The staff were pleasant, attentive & helpful. All meals, many different, arrived hot & at the same time. The chips were the best we’ve had in a v long time. Lovely generous surprise to end our meal was the offer of a free ice cream each 🙌🏼❤️ Arnold & Pam & family

Food was ok but the service was absolutely terrible. Lots of staff but had to wait 20+ mins for a simple small order. Approx ten people came in and ordered got their food before before i left. Felt as if I'd been forgotten about. As a visitor to the area i didn't feel as all welcome by the person who served my food and won't be returning.

I'll never go back. Madly expensive. We paid £25.30 for fish and chips, 3 pieces of chicken and chips and mushy peas and curry sauce. Food was average. Curry sauce and peas weren't put in the bag which we didn't realise till we got home.

Poor service we felt unwelcome was not served just stood looking at us for 10 minutes till we eventually left and went to a more friendly establishment. Would not go back or recommend

£17 for cod and chips is an absolute rip off. My boyfriend and I visited the shop today, we decided to sit in and ended up paying £27 for 2 cans, 2 tiny portions of chips, a battered sausage and 10 pieces of scampi. The take away part was £1.50 for a can of pop, £2.50 in the restaurant. Portions were small and the scampi tasted frozen. Whilst we were there we heard the staff ranting about their customers who “can’t read” and then talking to eachother about giving other customers discounts. Very unprofessional. Wouldn’t come back, especially not to the restaurant.

The best fish and chips in the area. Cooked fresh to order. Good value for money with good-sized portions. If you're in the area you should definitely try them

Don’t bother 30 minutes for 1 small sausage & chips. £4.75 Absolutely dry as a bone. Thew the chips away. Inedible They seem to be only able to serve 1 customer at a time Wait till that order is ready … not take the order and move on to the next… laughable . They really haven’t got it . I can not truly in words describe how shocking this service is. Can somebody please teach them to keep on top cooking chips / fish and not serve one at a time !!!!

Lovely staff, friendly and helpful. Ordered two small fish and chips, good size. Staff member offered bag, salt and vinegar, wooden forks and napkins. Fish cooked to order, beautiful and crispy just like the chips. 10/10 would definitely recommend and visit again.

On holiday and on arrival I checked out the local eateries on TripAdvisor and found this place. Having spent most of the day travelling, we decided on fish and chips. On arrival, we found the staff really friendly (despite my English accent) The fish and chips, simply outstanding and particularly enjoyed the spicy curry sauce. Prices very reasonable Would certainly recommend this place

Good quick service, no complaints with the food. Friendly staff. Only reason I didnt give 5 is because I feel £4.95 is a little steep for a kids small meal.

Called in for a takeaway it took for ever to place my order then waiting another age to receive it. I found the fish and chips well over priced and the quality was not the best

I was recommended this Chip Shop, whilst on holiday. I'm very glad it was recommended. Best fish and chips I've had in years! There was quite a queue, but it moved along steadily. Lovely staff and very clean establishment. We would 100% make a point of going again, if in the area.

We really enjoyed food from here. Busy but worth the wait. Batter was really crispy. One thing needs sorting is extractor fan outside was dripping stuff from it onto pavement.

It was good to see that there was a good queue in the chippie on a Friday night. It was also good so see that the do fish in crumb. We got fried chicken and chips and were a bit surprised that the salt and vinegar question applied equally to the chicken as to the chips but it was lovely none the less.

Just had small fish n chips and a curry sauce, and they were delicious. The batter was lovely, l recommend anyone eating here, I had takeaway as I'm on holiday.

This chippy has a poor customer service, food is substandard. Refuse to believe there was a problem when a complaint was made. Walked out. They're in denial. Never again.

Whilst in the queue I was communicating via texts with my daughter who stayed in the car. She said she wanted potato scallops. Asked a young lad behind counter if they were them in the hot counter and he said yes and the last lot too. Asked when they were cooked as looked dry he said 6pm and it was now 7.10pm. Sent daughter a photo which she replied yes she would still have them. The lad then proceeded to throw them in the bin , when questioned he then said that I was going to put the photo on Facebook !!!!!! WOW how pathetic his mindset was. But being old enough to be his mother I wouldn’t understand. To begin with I’m not on Facebook and never have been. So to have been insulted and wrongly accused as a customer trying to decide on my purchase I was livid and couldn’t think straight at this point. We ordered but not the right stuff but had to make do, more lost sales as well as the binned scallops. He also said he was the manager wow !?!?!?!? Started to eat our food well the fish might as well as been chucked too as god knows when that was cooked skinny fish all batter but dry and hard. Not at all good. Had fish there before and it’s been nice. The chips were ok but they do give massive portions of chips again advocating waste, couldn’t eat them all. Be better to cut the portions and the price too. Also if he didn’t think they were Facebook worthy (whatever that looks like ) but he was still prepared to sell them up to that point beggars belief what their standards / due diligence procedures are ???? Morale of the story is do not upset your LOCAL customers. That’s it now I will take my money elsewhere out of principle. AND don’t get complacent with a bumper summer season as it’s a long winter here in Pwllheli so treat your locals with a bit more respect and intelligence!!!

Fish and chips was excellent. The place was busy (a good sign in itself) and the fish came straight out the frier and so did the chips. Both excellent. Staff always friendly and I recommend this place to friends and family who come to visit

We had fish and chips to takeaway, it was busy but well organised and the staff were very helpful and friendly. The fish and chips were delicious!

Expensive but food is fantastic and cooked fresh. 2 adult meals and a child's meal came to just shy of £40. Don't get me wrong the food is great and I certainly can't complain as I enjoyed it, I just found the price a bit steep which will put people off. Apart from that if you want great food cooked fresh give these guys a try,

We made a really large order at a really busy time, the staff handled it all fantastically well. The young lady with glasses in particular was really doing a fantastic job running the show. Couldn't recommend enough

We visited Pwehlli on a rainy summer holiday to Abersoch. Supper from Allports chippy was just want we needed to cheer us up. Fantastic fish and chips, reasonably priced too. We love how they lift the skins on the chips, made them taste so much better. Highly recommend food from here.

ordered 3 meals , chips were underdone , sausage tasted like it was from farmfoods , and the price 😳😳😳😳…. disgusting , will never go back , no wonder a guy shouted arvonia is cheaper and better … there next time … only positive is the gravy was nice :-)

I went for the battered cod, chips and peas and it was cooked to absolute perfection. Great portion sizes, fresh food and lovely customer service from the team. My boyfriend had the special burger which was top restaurant quality and really tasty. Wish we had taken some photos but we ate it too quickly! Would definitely recommend - our favourite chippy!

Absolutely shocking service, for low quality food, on top of messing up orders, as well forgetting 2 FULL meals, after paying and thoroughly going through the order multiple times. You’d expect better for such prices. What meals we did receive, were bland and soggy. Customer service is just as bad as it’s near enough impossible to get through .

Great service, great food. Went for a burger and chips, burger came on a nice crispy bun. Chips were crunchy and full of flavour

Had the smallest fish I've ever seen. Not cooked fresh, almost cold and very flat. Polite staff but never again. There are far better chippies in Pwllheli than Allports.

Run by teenagers with only one who seemed to know what she was doing. Fish was gross, overdone & dried up - actually burnt - inedible £35 later and no answer by phone when I called to complain - owner - please get in touch!

We enjoyed our chips and the staff were very accommodating, shame they were out of scallops. There isn't anywhere obvious to sit and eat them nearby so drove to one of the local beaches to enjoy them.

Hubby + me enjoyed a takeaway lunch from here yesterday (Tuesday). We chose 2 x large chips and 1 x large tub of mushy peas (to share) which came to a total of £8.60 (card payments accepted). The guy serving was pleasant /polite. The Cafe...

Consistently good fish and chips, visited several times, would recommend. We often but the food then take it down to the beach, about 3 minute drive away.

Staff friendly. Ordered bacon cheese burger. Walked to station to eat it. Sat down to eat. Bun was extremely cold. Burger extremely raw, so raw it was dangerous. I remember BSE etc. Wasn't going to take a risk.

Always consistently lovely. We always use Allports when we are in the area and the food is always great quality, fresh and a great price. For the first time we ordered online and collected and it was perfect. No queueing, cooked to order and very...

Excellent Fish and chips. Best I've had for a long time. Took ages to get served, Staff were wandering around aimlessly. Was like a scene from The Day Of The Dead.

I visit here every Friday night after my son finishes cricket lessons, he’s a massive fan of the chicken chunks! I see a majority complaining about slow service but there’s always the option to pre book a meal for a certain time and it’s always...

Amazing fish and chips would highly recommended lovely and hot fish was beautiful lovely chunky chips

Just what you want from a fish and chip shop, chunky chips crispy cod and a good choice of sides. With friendly staff you can't go wrong.

Hubby and me decided to get a takeway lunch from here today (Wednesday). It is located in The Square near the bus station. There is a one-way queueing system in place at the moment and face masks must be worn. I ordered 2 chips baps...

You may have wait a little longer than usual but we’ll worth it as the quality of fish is just brilliant.. Orders taken quickly. Staff attitude really helpful.

Lovely chips. Large portion more than enough for 2. However do agree with some of the other comments around slow service. Probs wouldnt have waited as long as i did were i just getting chips again.

I got in the queue to wait to order food .....only 5 people in front so I thought great... with 6 staff on it won't take long.........35 mins later I got to place my order with the young lad on the till who had the...

Service quite slow despite a wealth of food being ready to serve. Take away only at the moment and no gluten free options at all.

Excellent fish and chips. Yes a little slow to be served after order but this was as fish was cooked fresh. Would recommend

Very slow service (around 20 minutes even though there were only three people in front of us in the queue). I understand it’s difficult at the moment due to the covid restrictions, but this was extra slow even bearing that in mind. When we did...

Really tasty fish and chips meal, included mushy peas and drink. Little wait to get in around 6pm, which was cool as the food was worth it.

I was working in the town and needed a quick bite so just popped in for a piece of fish a delight to eat even got a fork and napkin. Good COVID19 procedures in place. Thanks

Great fish an chips, ultra fresh flaky moist fish with perfectly cooked chips for a great price in a covid safe environment. Great job!

Just been in for 5 meals .. service was fantastic .. I do come in a few times a month as the food is delish!! Staff always so friendly food portions I find generously sized.. priced really fair .. and extremely covid safe...

Whenever we're in Pwllheli we always make a point of visiting this fish and chip shop. The fish is delicious, as are the chips!

When we go to north wales we always do a pilgrimage to allports. Loverly fresh fish & chips well worth the visit

Best fish and chips in the area. Home made curry Nice friendly service. Great social distance. Plenty of parking

Always call in here when on holiday the food is outstanding always fresh the fish is fantastic staff very friendly never had a bad meal from here

Top fish and chips ! And a brown roll to go with it as well (much to my wife’s chagrin). Really enjoyed the food as a take out on Pwllheli front. Downside was a loooong queue. Couldn’t quite work out why it took so long to serve people as it seemed food wasn’t ready. But will go again - good chips !

Stopped by for a late lunch, Haddock and chips for 2. Very well organised re queue and sanitation. Delicious, light crispy batter and a very god size of haddock. Generous portions of haddock and the home made tartar sauce made for a perfect lunch. Thankyou very much to the friendly young man at the till point.

I have eaten at Alport’s fish and chip shop and had great fish and chips, however I called in today and having waited some 25 minutes. I ordered 3 portions of chips 2 fish and 2 portions of curry sauce.The chips were leather like and the batter on the fish soggy. The shop was very busy and I would have expected freshly cooked food. It tasted as if it had been sitting about from lunchtime. I won’t be rushing back!Peter Hardman PhD.

Chippy tea on a Saturday night, even with covid-19 issue not too long to get served but worth the wait, then sat by the harbour, the chips were perfectly cooked and the pie was spot on

Great fish and chips, the haddock was amazing. My wife said this was the best fish and chips she’d had in a very, very, very, VERY long time!!

Had a lovely fish, chips and curry sauce takeaway from here the other night. Unfortunately we waited an hour for the privilige standing in the queue. I would recommend ordering online. We had a family at the back of our queue who ordered online and then went to the front to pick up it up within 10 minutes.

Another visit here and we're not disappointed. How fish and chips should be. Added benefit that we could order online and then pick up at selected time, served by the ever friendly staff. Da iawn

We visited the takeaway during the COVID restrictions. The wait was long (due to the obvious popularity) but the system was efficient and queuing system well organised. The wait was worth it! Up there with the best fish and chips we have ever had! Generous portions too. Another place to return to!

Delicious fish and chips. Generous portions. Cod was tasty. Went twice but haddock was unavailable both times. Batter was lovely as were chips and peas too. Plenty of choices here

We had traditional fish and chips from Allports in Pwllheli. I asked in Welsh (badly) and the member of staff smiled. The food was excellent, and the mini size fish and chips was the perfect size for us. It was piping hot, the perfect batter. The chips were not soggy or greasy. When we are back in the area, we will be back for more.

Had chips twice from here both times had a beautiful crispy crunch like there twice fried. If I lived here id be a fat bugger . Ah well back to floppy chips in brum

We went for Fish & Chips. They were okay but not great. Soggy batter and greasy chips. Okay for a dinner you don’t have to cook yourself

Have been using the chippy for a while its unfortunate that it's a hit and miss ... I get home to find my order wrong or missing a item ... today I think was the final straw as it was my lads meal that was missing items ... we understand the occasional missing item or the fact the beans turn into peas but it's happening more often then not ... depending on who serves its dependent on the size of the chips...

Been coming here for years. It is hands down the best chippy I know of in Gwynedd. Fish is always crispy and fresh (and MSC graded), chips are perfect balance of crunchy and soft, mushy peas are delicious and natural (as opposed to the fluorescent greens stuff you can get in other places).In short: Allports Pwllheli is the best chippy around!

By far the best we have visited. Staff are lovely and the food is even better. The chips are a different level to others we have tried in the area. Will definitely be returning next time we're in the area.

Ate at allports on a recent visit to Pwllheli, lovely food, best chips in the area. Great staff, would definitely go back.

Visited Allport’s fish and chips last months and it didn’t let me down . COD was perfect and you could tell it was fresh, chips were soft and went perfectly with the mushy peas. Can’t recommend the place enough, staff members all friendly, will be returning!

5 stars 🌟 all the way , perfect crispy batter , chips were like homemade and delicious.atmosphere in the cafe was lovely and staff very friendly, cannot fault the place .a must to visit if in the area .😊

5 stars 🌟perfect crispy batter , and chips like homemade just delicious.lovely atmosphere in the cafe and friendly staff , a must to visit if in the area .

Had dinner here this evening and couldn’t believe the previous reviews after we had such a fabulous meal in a clean welcome environment. Efficient service with well presented meals. 5 more than satisfied customers. All food tasted as if it had just come from the pan and couldn’t fault! Would highly recommend the breaded fish!

Had to write a review because the food was so good! By far the best fish and chips in North Wales. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the fish and chips were so fresh and tasty! Lovely atmosphere in the restaurant, will definitely be back soon

First of all I came in last night for my usual cod, chips and beans... or should I say COLD cod, HARD chips and MUSTY beans... I have been sick all night... the food was cold and had a funny taste to it... especially the tub of beans... one spoonful and they tasted disgusting like 3 day old beans left in a dusty cabinet... Not fresh food served here at all... As for the service... some too young to be polite and when I asked the usual member of staff vanessa to add beans... she ignored me and carried on talking to other staff... I had to ask three times and even then she seemed VERY rude and even pulled a face at me has a sour face everytime I come in... no wonder friends advise to boycott... not what is wanted when ordering food... Disappointed with the local chip shop... Will NOT be recommending here or coming to eat here again....

I will NEVER set foot in this place again!! AVOID!! Came here on a Sunday night for a takeaway. Young staff behind the till were not very welcoming. Chips were far from being fresh- brown and crispy with strong smell- horrible- wouldn't feed them to a rat!! They were definitely reheated from the day before, or even before then! Went home and all of us were very ill that evening including our young children. Even our friends who bought food there that same night were ill for days as we were. Coincidence!? Environmental health have been informed...

My friend and I managed to get the last table as this group is very popular.

Called in last night to get supper on the way home. Ordered a small fish and chips, small is an understatement, wouldn't have fed a child. Also ordered 3 pieces of southern fried chicken, but as they were a bit on the large size so we were only given 2 pieces but paid for 3!

Customer service needs working on

Hubby and me decided to get a takeaway lunch from here today (Wednesday). The young lady who served us was very pleasant. We ordered a large portion of chips (to share), a large tub of peas and a pickled egg, which came to a total of £5.20 (contactless card payments accepted). The food was neatly packed in a recyclable paper bag. We ate our meal by the nearby cob embankment. The chips were hot. The mushy peas were thick. The hard boiled egg was mildly pickled.

I have visited this chippy in Porthmadog and Pwllheli both times after eating the chips me and my son and daughter vomited maybe the chrome had worn off the baskets and contaminated the oil however I will never go there again!

Me and my friend and our children went to the restaurant to eat food. Asked for chips cheese and gravy and a children’s meal. When we got our food I noticed that the cheese was freezing cold out the fridge and on my chips so I asked if they could melt it as it was just making the chips cold. The staff said no she wouldn’t do this for me then after the food my daughter got an ice cream as part of her meal. She couldn’t have an ice cream as the woman didn’t switch the machine on that morning and we still had to pay full price for the children’s meal total rip off £8 for just nuggets and chips no pudding

What you would expect from a chip shop - however when there are a few customers it can be slow. Staff appear to have allocated roles and some reluctant to help out to ease queues. Food itself was hot and tasty after a wait.

The best fish and chips I’ve ever had- that great I had to write this review! Takeaway and eat in available, resturant is beautifully don’t out. Friendly staff and great location! Worth a visit.

The fish would not have satisfied a well fed cat. I would query whether the fish should have been thrown back to grow a bit more? They served the chips in a small bowl to hide how tiny was the portion. A massive rip off at £11.95...it included a slice of ,from the taste, an "Every day Essential" sliced loaf.

I revisted Allports as it has been refurbished, and new restaurant attached, I decided to use the Restaurant bit to eat in, I chose a a fish meal deal, I got the healthy version, small fish, 12 chips in a bowl, 1/2 glass of coke,less than 1/2 a can, but paying the unhealthy prices, if anyone going there it is better going to the takeaway side, getting a full helping eating it outside, in the car, or take home. It is the cheaper option.
