Cosy Takeaway in Gwynedd

Visited Cost Fish and Chips in Dolgellau, and I must say, it was an outstanding experience. Had mozzarella sticks perfectly cooked, with a crispy batter that was just right. The portion sizes were generous, and the service was friendly and efficient. I highly recommend Cosy Fish and Chips to anyone in Dolgellau.

The take away fish and chips here were so good, I went back again the following week. Highly recommended.

The food is excellent every time! Polite staff and reasonable prices.

Really lovely fish and chips, batter was so fresh and crispy. Staff were friendly. We would definitely come again!

Fresh and hot, nicely sized portion, friendly staff

Good quality fish and chips. Other niceties including vegetarian options like Halloumi fries.

great service, plenty of choice!

Excellent food, cheap and served quickly. Well recommended for anyone visiting the town.

First time of using, needed chips for 7 adults and two children (the lads estimated 4xlarge portions - JUST RIGHT) - Small Cod and chips, large battered sausage and a curry sauce. Served by four very smartly dressed young men, very efficient, very quick, and very delicious!! Will definitely use next time!

We were in the area so popped in here for cod and chips. Really nice piece of cod and the chips were equally as good.

Cracking chippy, didn’t rush the chips out half cooked - lovely and crispy. Fish was lovely too. Fully recommend

Fabulous cod and chips, best we’ve had in a long while. Very nice curry sauce too.

Really tasty fish and chips, very nice service, I recommend it

Had FnC for our evening meal, it went down a treat, well worth the visit.

Excellent fish and chips, take it down The Cross Keys to eat it with a pint for the perfect evening

By far the best chippy I’ve had in a long time! Well worth the visit! An option for everyone, amazing service & owned by the most kindest young lad! Definitely makes a difference to Dolgellau!!

Very tasty food . Owners and staff are always welcoming and friendly. I stop here every week and have never been disappointed.

Popped in for a bit of lunch, afraid the chips were not very good at all. Small chips with a lot of scraps. A little greasy and quite a few eyes and scraggly bits.

So disappointed. We paid £12 for two pieces of fish that were inedible!! All batter, that was brown, and a tiny bit of thin fish. Chips were OK. Easy changes to make, but improvement needed.

Under average Fish and Chips. Chips looked and tasted that they've been fried 2 or 3 times and in dirty/old cooking oil. Will probably go further a field next time into Barmouth for a fish and chip supper. Disappointing really and hope for the town that they improve the quality soon.

Usually very nice well cooked food. Went in lunchtime a couple of weeks ago the tasted a lot better than it looked. The chips were shocking, just leftover, dried up waste that looked and tasted like they should've been binned before they opened. Out of a large bag we probably found 10 edible chips.

Nice chicken and mushroom pie, they nuked it, but it was edible. It's a rare thing when it's been near a microwave.

3 of us had fish chips and peas, 3 of us enjoyed our food I dont know what you do to the mushy peas, but they was so tasty loved them, everything else was all good thank you

Constructive criticism so please take it as such. For goodness sake, get your act together. You're the only chippy in dolgellau now so you should be making a killing. We have eaten from here during the summer, not as often as we would have done due to the disappointment of the food. No problems on previous ownership as it was always good. Your chips were lifeless, the fish not fresh white and the batter far too thick and chewy. Change your oil more often, its not rocket science. It says a lot that we prefer going to barmouth now and the carousel where they know how to make a good fish and chip supper and care about their produce. Rant over but please.... its so easy to put right!

Friendly and efficient service. The fish and chips were really tasty……the batter nice and crispy and the fish portion was very generous. All round local winner.

Best fish (chips were tasty) that I've ever had, and we've had fish and chips twice at 'the shed' at Porthgain by the Blue lagoon Pembroke, YOUR fish and batter was much better, first class, not greasy or slimy in the slightest, batter was the best! lovely crumbly clean tasting fish! Well done, Thank you guys 👌 picture doesn't do it justice 😋🤤

The large cod was nice. But the chips omg. Please sort your chips out. They looked like left overs. Dry and crunchy like scapppings. Alot of the chips had a little bit of potato or none at all.

I am a fussy eater, and Shaun and his team catered to my needs. Great tasting food, clearly freshly cooked. I will return, staff are very welcoming. Thank you very much guys

Awful food. We couldn't eat the chips ,they were disgusting. Looked like they had been cooked in very dirty cooking oil

Stopping at a campsite nearby and had a take out from here on two nights. Lovely hot fish and chips. Served very quickly and good value for money. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent fish and chips, we've been twice in a few days! Fish is so fresh and tasty. Definitely recommend

Brilliant. Lovely crisp chips. Really good fish and great batter. Good price

We had chips fish and peas . All very nice and we really enjoyed them ..

great sausage and chips was banging even at a busy time of sesiwn fawr food was getting served quickly

Lovely fish and chips great service the owner was lovely. Fish was succulent and the chips were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside absolutely perfect and the peas are incomparable.

Pretty good but quite the wait!

Pie peas chips and gravy. Yummy

Popped in to Dolgellau and decided to have a chippy lunch at the cosy takeaway 😋 I was not disappointed, freshly cooked fish in a light batter and chips to die for Many thanks i will be back 😊

Brilliant fish and chips rival any I have had so far, will definitely be back for more …. Friendly service as well such a bonus. see you again soon.

Awful chippy! One of the worst I've had. Chips were so dry and tasteless, like they had been sat since lunch time!! The fish was so overcooked, the batter was disgusting! Such a shame, this chippy used be be great. Even the sausages weren't nice....how can you get them wrong? What a waste of 32 pound!!!

Fabulous fish and chips will recommend this chip shop

I live fairly locally and we won't go here. Chips are thin, soggy, VERY greasy as well as being full of eyes. I assume cheap old potatoes

After a long trip I needed feeding. The fish and chips were great, and good value.

Great cod and chips. Chips were particularly fantastic! All well priced too 👍

Really good fish 🐠 and chips, masshy peas was yummy. Really nice people who works there, also they own the place.

Really nice food here and friendly staff, and it is actually cosy!

Great tasting fish with brilliantly cooked chips. Perfect portion sizes at a reasonable price

The fish and chips at the lovely little chip shop are very nice. The portion size for the price is great, I was very happy to stumble across here.

After reading the great reviews decided to try it out, it was only 7:30 and was informed that they didn't have any chips left?!? Disappointed

very disappointing, got a bag of chips and the portion size was very bad, portion size was so small I had to get a McDonald’s after it never in my life have I seen a chipper hand out such small portion of chips I wouldn’t bother goin there again

Due to a change in plan we went into Dolgellau for fish and chips and certainly weren't disappointed. Although there was a bit of a wait - everyone else seemed to have the same idea - it was all freshly cooked, nice chips and excellent cod with good sized portions plus not badly priced.

Amazon Staff and even better fish and chips. Came for bank holiday and needed up coming back everyday !

Fantastic fish and chips. Very generous portions. Highly recommend 👌

Fantastic fish and chips. Very reasonable prices for the portion sizes. Friendly staff. Highly recommend

Middle of the road chippy. Looks like this guy needs some older experienced staff on that don’t get so flustered when it’s busy. Have had better for a couple quid cheaper. Never seen such small curry pots and not many chips with ya fish. Last resort really when no other option takes ya fancy.

Great food great prices great people thanks!

Will definitely visit again, thoroughly enjoyed by all of us 👍

Popped in for fish and chips after work today, what an amazing meal xx freshly cooked, and generous too. About time Dolgellau had a decent chippy. Very impressed indeed. Well done Shaun and crew, it was delicious.

Fresh fish and chips !!! Very good price 😬😬 we ordered cod, size of cod is good enough for one person. Curry sauce is good! Staff are very friendly 🎈🌸 we really enjoyed fish and chips with curry sauce. Not spicy curry very good with Chips and cod.

Not tried the fish but the chips and chicken nuggets are really great :-)

Excellent. Highly recommended. Nice chips, generous portions. Friendly proprietor. I must remember to ask him next time we visit why you can't get rock salmon and skate any more.

Very friendly, very busy shop, great food, recommended to all

Really tasty chips every time. Reasonable price and portion size. We often stop here on the way through and eat the chips by the nearby river.

Good fish an chips, chip portions were smaller than we are used to but still reasonable

We waited 30 minutes in the street outside for our order - fortunately it wasn’t raining . There were only two people working. One was packing food AND handling money- didn’t feel COVID safe to me. The food was was undercooked and anaemic. Chips were greasy and again under cooked - not sure how they got their better reviews. Also they say they are open 5-8 pm, but they stop taking orders at 7.30 pm - guess they expect to make people wait 30 minutes for their orders every night!!

We found this fish & Chip shop using Google so wanted to thank Google a& to post a great review for the Cosy Takeaway in Dolgellau. We had 'fish chips and mushy peas. Freshly cooked, piping hot, generous portions and excellent quality. Highly recommended. Thanks. x Update July 2021. Returned to the Cosy Takeaway this month - Just as good:-) Recommended again. Malcolm

Fabulous chips and other things and very friendly staff.

Enjoyed our fish and chips Thanks very much

Great new management, we both really enjoyed our fish and chips can well recommend Visited this delightful little chip shop again yesterday not disappointed extremely friendly service excellent cod and chips batter really light and tasty ,gentlemen asked if my dog needed water which was really kind of him and gave him a sausage which was greatly received .Very pretty chip shop in lovely little town look forward to return visit

Just had Fish and chips from here, absolutely spot on all freshly cooked, batter was soo light really enjoyed them 😋

Quick friendly service, good menu. Quite hidden from the high street and has a for sale sign on it. I think position & Covid is making things tough for them. Give them your custom, you won't be disappointed.

Make sure you take cash these days, and be ready for a long long wait, for fish and chips that frankly aren't the best anymoe

The batter was much too thick and undercooked. The chips the same. We had to wait 30 mins so expected a lot better. Very Disappointed.

Just popped down for a takeaway as last day of hol. Was quite busy for a Thursday, but didn’t take long from order to collection. Delicious cod & chips and still piping hot when we got home.

Popular, busy Fish and Chip Shop. Customers were following Social Distancing by going in placing order and waiting outside. Orders were cooked fresh and our Fish, Chips and Mushy Peas were well worth the wait. Batter was crispy and not greasy at all. Chips were golden, slightly crispy on outside, buttery and fluffy on inside with no bad bits or eyes. Mushy Peas were delish. All in all the best Fish and Chips we've had in both England and Wales. Absolutely Excellent with friendly banter between customers and staff. A*****

What a fantastic little chippy, kind polite welcoming staff, the new owners have done a wonderful job changing the place, well done

A clean takeaway, with friendly staff, very good food and reasonable prices. Very conveniently located for Dolgellau residents.

Very friendly staff, had some delicious chips here last week, burger for me, pie for my husband. Both really enjoyed it

Fish and chips were excellent. Freshly cooked and very good portions. Highly recommended.

2 x cod and chips, very tasty, great service.... There's nothing more to say!

Had to queue for 10 mins. And they closed at 19.30 on the Saturday that I went. Good food 👍

Got abit worried with hygiene rating but everything food wise ovely the lady was very friendly the only worry was her jewellery.

Huge tasty piece of fish with light, crispy batter, and lovely chips. Really nice!

Smelt nice from outside chips under cooked Fish was tasteless I have had Better Staff a bit unorganised didn’t know who they were serving

Really nice chippy. And excellent service. Luv it😴

Fish was very wet and batter was soggy

Always great fish and chips, fresh cooked and tasty. All the negative reviews seem to be before ownership change. Top chippy!

Excellent chippy but you might have to wait.

Hot and freshly cooked with friendly staff. The batter was thin and crispy the fish was moist and and well cooked. Prices were on a par with other outlets. Nice to see that it came in a cardboard box and not a polystyrene one.

Barely three stars. Food was great, which I suppose is the main thing. But service more than a bit chaotic on a Friday night. A couple of mistakes as a result. In fairness, it got the job done, but was more than a bit of an effort.

The best battered fish my husband and I have ever had. The gravy was also thick and rich. Amazing food, and the staff were absolutely lovely and welcoming.

Nice fish and chips. chips were nicely done, fish was good and in cardboard not polystyrene box

This is a brilliant Fish and Chip shop, do not pass it by! All the food is made to order and of the highest quality, it is spotless and with very friendly staff. Please take the time to enjoy their food, you won't be dissapointed.

Excellent fish and chips and friendly service.

We were slightly worried by the 4* rating but heartened that reviews seemed positive since new ownership 3 months ago, and the new owner lived up to expectations. Despite being unexpectedly busy just before closing, the staff were polite and friendly as they tried to clear the orders, and they did this quite quickly, we only waited 5 minutes to order and 5 minutes for our food, which was cooked fresh to order. The fish was deliciously fresh and moist, among the best we've had, and it eclipsed the rest of the food which was also good. A light, crisp batter, not soggy, neither the chips. Mozzarella sticks also gooey inside, crispy outside, just right for me. The fish was maybe a little pricier than average but great value for how good it was. 10p for a plastic fork stung, but I see the point of environmental responsibility given wooden chip forks were available free. That said, the plastic bags the food was served for takeaway in could also change to paper. The manager also very kindly let us stay after closing to finish our food, though we were more than happy to go as it was, after all, closed. Would definitely go again.

First visit since it changed hands, great owner and staff food and service excellent, and a warm and friendly welcome, I'll be back

Lovely fresh fish, choice of cod or haddock. Very friendly service, even provided a bowl of water for my dog

Staff very freindly, food was good at average prices If you are in the area and want a chippy then worth dropping in, food was clean and well cooked.

Oh so poor on many levels,Could be so much improved with a little effort.

Got short shrift from person serving when I said I didn't want my food in a plastic/polystyrene box. Was bluntly told that I need to understand that small towns can't afford paper 'which would cost 8p a sheet'. Very rude, not environmentally aware and food not to a good standard. Would not recommend.
