This place is second to none. It is theeeeeeee best chip shop by a mile. If you haven’t tried it you should The food is always boiling hot Fresh and amazing. I always have it delivered It’s always prompt and always always hot. This is the best takeaway option in the area.

So inconsistent! But bad more than good which is a shame as when its good it's really nice! Food constantly undercooked - woman tried arguing that its set to a temperature and that means its cooked - we had a frozen chip in our food and others barely cooked so the temperature maybe correct but the timing isn't. People don't have £15 to waste when food is going straight in bin. Bring back small chippies with people that care not chains.

Overall very nice food except from the chips they were very soggy not done well. 2 girls working were very unpleasant, giving dirty looks and making me and my friend very uncomfortable. We waiting for our order to be taken for 10 mins if not longer while one of the girls was doing nothing except giving us evils.

We ordered 3 fish which was beautiful and succulent. The chips were crispy and tasty. My boyfriend had the fish cake which he said was really tasty. The mushy peas were fresh tasting and the curry sauce was the best I’ve ever had from a chip shop! Wouldn’t 100% come here again

Chip portions are extremely small compared with other local chip shops - poor value for money. Shame because on the whole the food tastes great.

We used to get food here at lunchtimes weekly with the previous owner and we always enjoyed. So imagine my disappointment when we got food from here today and it was average, just. The chicken and mushroom pie had a weird coagulated gravy mush inside- not very pleasant. The portion sizes are significantly smaller than previously (I didn’t realise I’d ordered a childs portion of chips for the full price) and the prices have sky rocketed. Will we visit again? Probably not for a very long time. Disappointing. On the plus the side that girls working there are wonderful.

Plenty of space to park for customers and plenty of clean seats and tables inside to sit and eat from. There is a well displayed menu with lots of choices. I've never been inside a fish and chip restaurant before and I liked it. The food options are not expensive and the children's meals are of a good size. The place only excepts cash.I left a three star review as the food and service was average like so many other places.

Rock hard ends of chips not whole chips if you know what I mean. and this was £5.60!Pie was ok but that's just stick it in the microwave and nuke it.Will not be going back there...truly awful!

I picked my sister up from Llanelli train station and she said she was hungry as we approached Tumble so I drove to Crisp and Fry. My sister came back very disappointed as she was not able to buy what she wanted and ended up with old fried and cold chips. The shop was close to closing and had nothing to serve and wouldn’t even cook fish or battered sausage. My sister was even charged full price for her cold and chewy chips!

I had to throw it, I wouldn't give it to a dog! They seem me coming alright! Money wasted! Remember, we are paying customers! Rant over, apart from that, nice pie and chips, good customer service.

Mum parked around the back, whilst waiting to pick up my brother she wanted to get some chips for lunch. The owner knocked the window and told her only crisp and fry customers could park there. She explained that she was going to buy chips. She realised she only had her bank card so was driving to co op to get cash out (as they don’t accept cards). This is when the man started shouting at her whilst she was parked at the traffic lights and stuck his fingers up at her! Well, we won’t be going there again!

The chips this time were slightly better BUT the Fish had been cooked a very long time ( all dried up inside ) and the batter underneath was very brittle and looked like it had been standing a long time in the display cupboard. When you are charging just under £6.00 for a takeaway - make sure it is eatable - next time i'll take it to trading standards and environmental health !!

Fellow chip shop lovers. If you like a gamble it's the plaice for you! Depending on which of the lovely ladies are on shift it's like spending your hard earned cash on a lotto ticket, if you are lucky and pick a winner you will get a full portion you will get a cooked fish or a hot pie, but if your numbers don't come up expect half portions cold food, greasy batter which sticks to the wrapping and falls off, I know fish stocks are low but the fish sizes have halved in the last 6 months whilst prices rise. If you charge high prices then consistency and quality must be at the top of the list. So step in chill out get ready to wait and hope you have popped in when the queens of the correct portion sizes are on shift.

Just bought a large chips from this chip shop on 6/9/17 at 16.30.Had to wait about 10mins, no problem I thought, lovely fresh chips. They were fresh but the oil they were cooked in must have been really old because when I opened the carton it looked like black pepper all over my chips except it was just burned bits from previously cooked food. Disgusting!!!

Llamado para un almuerzo de pescado (aproximadamente) para llevar 12. 15:00 pm. ordenados 2 x piezas de pescado y trajo a casa a comer (aprox. A 800 metros de distancia). Uno de pescado era de piedra fría y muy seco con aparezca empanada (era de la pasada noche? ? ? La otra pieza) y tenía 11 huesos (sugerir que la persona que el pescado de bateadores Specsavers! ! £7). 00 por 2 piezas de pescado incluso nuestro gato lo pensaría dos veces antes de comer. Con todas las tiendas vacías en manos alguien lástima no abre media chips como este descenso ha perdido- pero luego ninguna competencia pero al leer otras vistas son si nada más coherente! ! ! . Qué pena, he estado allí tres veces, ya no se desplazan por - un 4 de julio.

This is our local chippy but sadly we won't be returning again... we have tried it a fair few times in the last year but it's not improved. It's either swimming in grease, cooked in smelly, dirty cooking oil or its dried out because it's been sat on the hot plate for too long. Certainly not cooked fresh.. some even done in the microwave! The only good point is the staff. The girls are nice and friendly. We now go to Gwendraeth fish bar. It's a bit further a field but the food is far superior.

Well I don't understand the last review i was in the chippy on Sunday the 2/10/2016 and the blonde lady that was behind the counter was very pleasant. Yes they were very rushed for a bit because a bus full of us arrived without booking in advance but the two staff members worked well together the older of the two coped well as the younger one took our orders the other put our food in to cook freshly. But we were told that they would be serving the takeaway first until our food was ready which was ok with us. So to the unpleasant rather large man that gave the lady behind the counter a hard time and the bad reveiw ( get your facts right first before you insult and bad mouth the people that are only doing they're best ) well done lady's you did good

Terrible service, Rude Staff and Seriously understaffed!!!Note to owner:If your going to have a sit down service and a take away make sure you have enough capable staff to manage it.A group of approx 10 people were waiting for their food in the seating area when we arrived to get a take away, there were 3 other people in the queue waiting to order as well.Obviously the Rude large blond lady behind the counter was in charge as the young girl with her was doing all the running around whilst this woman plated 1 plate at a time and shoved it on the girl to take to the table with the large group.Seriously 1 at a time!! it's a chip shop allFood was cooked it only needed putting on a plate this should have taken about 3 or 4 mins but no, talk about dragging it out, I lasted 15mins in the queue without even being acknowledged by anyone, I had the audacity to ask if anyone was serving the take aways and was told "we have seated people to serve" I asked can't one serve the take aways and one the seated and then was blanked and an obvious down gear in speed which I thought impossible.At this point I walked out never to return.

This fish & chip shop has just had a refurbishment, it looks so much better, however it's a shame that the standard of food doesn't match the premises. We live close to this chippy but refuse to eat/get takeaway anymore because we are always disappointed. If someone could give the staff (who are generally very friendly) a lesson on how not to over cook food that would be fantastic!

We visit here every Thursday lunchtime and recently pretty much everytime we're waiting ages as there never seems to be any chips ready. Surely common sense would mean that they should be continually frying at that time of day. Food is ok. Found a hair in my chips and they often forget to put in gravy but still charge you. Think we'll try McDonalds next week.

How can a chip shop produce a poor standard of fried food!? This one does exactly that, over cooked fish (to the point it's inedible), dry over cooked chips which taste & look like they were yesterday's & to top it of rude staff!!! This place recently had a revamp which we thought would bring standards up (after previously having a number of bad/poor food from there) however this hasn't been the case. Avoid if possible, go to McDonald's or the Chinese down the road!

We went to McDonald’s for a quick grab of a cheeseburger and chips that they ran out of so they suggested a Big Mac .. this was disgusting , flabby, old lettuce , the whole thing fell apart .. I had to throw it away .. we asked for coffee and it wasn’t until we were back on the road that we discovered it was a warm hot chocolate.. slow service .. never again

Under new ownership as of 2023 (and maybe new name?), this cafe attached to the small garden centre at Llangadog is well worth a stop. Great cakes, specialist coffees and hot chocolates (try the mint aero hot chocolate!) plus hot food and breakfasts. Simple decor, friendly service, definitely worth a visit.

A lab excellent visit this evening with friends. Great food with no wait all meals were timely measured . The service was 100% and very friendly and polite. It’s nice to chat with someone who thrives to deliver first class service. We had a young lady Christina who served us and was excellent. Ours tables were cleared regularly and we always were asked if we were happy and anything we needed.
