Staff are friendly , not the best I’ve had I thought chips was ok partner said no , he liked the fish I didn’t , as I could taste cooking oil was greasy , curry sauce was ok , partner got gravy , I’m used to Scottish sauce maybe ?

Great fish & chips, the batter was the best & not many get it right. It’s an art is batter, & these people have got it bang on! Now about that tea, it would’ve been a lovely cuppa, but there didn’t seem to be any sugar in it. So I asked for more, & I was given a tiny little sachet. I stirred like crazy, but hardly anything happened so I gave up after that as I didn’t want to come across as little miss greedy guts.

Crap. Chips were overcooked. Battered sausage was rock hard. Curry sauce was watery with lumps. No flavour. Don’t bother wasting your money!

We stayed in fairbourne for a week and visited this lovely chip shop twice during our stay. Food is cooked to order and is so fresh , hot and tasty, best chips I’ve had in a long time . Lovely to sit outside or in the window and just people watch whilst waiting. Really reasonably priced . Staff and owner were really friendly .

Food was appalling I've seen toddlers make better burgers out of play doh than the ones here The fish was the size of a single chip and tasted horrendous Worst chippy I've ever had

If I could give 0 stars I would, the cod I ordered must've been starved or something because it was thinner than my arm, adding to that I ordered the regular cod so I just get shivers down my spine when I think about how small the 'small cod' must've been, i dont even think a microscope could help me at that point. I think traumatized is an understatement. I will make sure to let everyone know to definitely not come here and atleast keep a few mile radius away from it just incase they'd have to suffer from the sight of the shop. Fairbourne chippy is a ridiculous name, the chippy in the name is a scam, I ordered chips and I received more packing paper than chips so please consider renaming yourselves fairbourne paper.

We ordered food from here last night for the first time. Unfortunately it was a bit disappointing. We realised when I got home that we weren’t offered salt & vinegar, therefore the chips were just plain. The chips were ok but lacked taste due to there being no seasoning. The cheeseburger and chicken burger just came as they are, no salad, no sauce offered. Very basic. The curry sauce and battered sausage was tasty though. Will probably try again and make sure I remember to ask for salt & vinegar but unfortunately I wouldn’t recommend the place after our first visit.

Just the job for a chippy tea on the seaside. We arrived on a busy evening so were warned of the wait (20-30mins), and invited to order with the option to leave a phone number and come back when it was ready, or wait inside with a cup of tea. We chose to wait with a brew, and were rewarded with lovely fresh food wrapped in paper, which we carried the short walk to the seaside to eat. Fish and chips were great, and Glamorgan sausages and pea fritter are nice as meat-free options. Portions are more than adequate for the prices, which are reasonable. Lovely friendly service, thanks for perfectly rounding off our trip to the coast!

We have had fish and chips from Fairbourne Chippy many times over the last few years and it's always been good and freshly cooked, yesterday however the fish was very undercooked with batter so pale and soggy it looked as if it had been dipped into fat that wasn't up to temperature. The chips although golden had a strange taste. Disappointing as £22 wasted, should have returned them. Hope this is just a blip because it had been very good in the past.

Great fish and chips. Needed to preorder as very busy, but not a problem as bar and beach down the road. Ready in the hour that was promised and well worth the wait.

Staff were busy chatting to each other when I walked in , so I waited patently and placed my order, Cod & Chips, please. Collected my order 10 minutes later & drove the 2-minute to car park over looking Cardigan Bay to enjoy our fish supper. View was stunning, Cod & chips were Awful, very little white fish, majority being sort of light brown, you'd expect fresh fish with the chippy being located within 200 metres of the sea, but sadly not in this case. My advice shop around Barmouth further up the coast has a few fish & chip shops. & if you check Fairbourne Chippy's web page for opening times before you visit, don't be surprised if it's closed when you get there.

Undercooked batter on our £6 fish! Couldn't eat. Fish tasted like it had come out of the freezer. Chips were skinny and not fluffy or crispy texture. The only saving grace was the curry sauce. I would not go there again.

Two portions of chips left out of order and too tired to drive back to collect the missing portions after a day walking up to the summit of Cadair Idris. The chip portions were not generous to start with. Chips ok but mostly quite hard. Fish was ok but batter was thin and flaccid. Mushy peas were good though. Very disappointing experience overall. Check your order before leaving.

The premises is so clean with attention to detail you can clearly see the family business is cared for. And, they ensure they make you feel welcome throughout your stay.

The food is first class; and what really stands out, is the fish and chips - which are excellent - are wrapped in PAPER. No plastic. Just good old fashioned PAPER.

Reasonable prices but service and food production poor. Front of house servers more interested in reviewing till receipts and cash than dishing out order. Was eventually given order from the person who prepared it and also apologised for the delay. In summary, monopoly of fish and chips in 10 mile radius = complacency.

If there is a queue the place is best avoided as service is very, very slow. We waited around and hour, which was ridiculous as there were not that many people in front. Cooking each order individually did result in good fish and chips. Fish and chips were well cook but the fish portions are very small. Another time I'd try the kebab shop a few doors away who looked able to serve people efficiently!

Ordered fish and chips for the family. The chippy is very popular during holiday season so get there in good time and prepare to wait, 45 mins in our case. The food wasn't piping hot when given to us which was disappointing. The chips were somewhat small in size and there were lots of small bits with them, like the end of the fry but all 4 portions were like this. Portion size was on the small side. Collectively we marked them 4/10. So not the best and objectively there is room for improvement. On the other hand the fish and sausage was good, as was the curry sauce. The staff were friendly.

I stayed in fairbourne for 10 days, I consider myself a breakfast sandwich connoisseur. I had a sandwich everyday there and it was perfect, better than any cafe I have ever been to in Wolverhampton. Packed out with meat and the chef is surgical with the brown sauce, perfect amount, the ingredients are better quality than I'm used to. The fish and chips were super nice, nice quality and very reasonably priced. Also the burger and chips are nice, the burger seemed better quality than you get in your average chippy. The staff are lovely, and hard working, everything is made to order, they are a great team. You can tell head chef is very experienced and talented and I feel like she is passionate about producing a nice meal for her customers. They have a couple of younger girls there and props to them for getting through a scorching hot couple of weeks.

Been here two times now, once for battered sausage, chips and curry sauce and a second time for one of their specials which was the burger night. Both times the food has been excellent and although there’s a short waiting time, all food is cooked to order and is excellent. Luckily it’s only a short distance away and you can call ahead to book your food. It’s worth noting it’s cash only. Cannot wait to go back.

Sat in and ate fish and chips. Was not disappointed and would highly recommend. The restaurant was clean and came with condiments. We had haddock and chips twice, my son had a jacket potato. The haddock was a thick piece of fish, suitable battered which was tasty and crispy. Chips were freshly cooked and complimented the fish. My lads potato was spot on. The whole experience was 100% pleasant , with welcoming and acommodating staff. You won’t be disappointed if you eat here, well we weren’t.
