Fintan's Fish & Chip Co. in Cardiff

Wow 30 minutes wait for rubish , hard chips , burnt pie and soggy fish , you should be ashamed to serve that rubish won’t be going back there

Very good food. Good service. Very clean

Everything was Luke warm and soggy. Not the best.

Had a fish and chips meal in here tonight and I have to say it's the nicest fish and chips I have ever had...big portions, the batter on the fish was crispy and fish flaky and really fresh..can't wait to visit again..thank you.

Had the crispyiest whitest cod chips and curry sauce was delicious I recomend it 5 star fish look forward to nxt time

One of best fish shops in Cardiff- however, like many chippies, close early so don't get caught out, especially if you want fish.

Cold, horrible chips, curry sauce like water, and burger quality awful, had better from a £1 frozen burger very disappointing

Everything was lovely and still piping hot. Only downside my lemon was missing 🤣🤣

All delivered very quickly, lovely meal

Out of no choice as my regular chippy was closed , I had no choice but to visit Fintans again in Whitchurch. I knew it would be terrible food and I was right. all the chips are mishaped and some were curled up and discloured. Was there anything tasty and attractive about the food NO. The chef needs to quit or get some guidance from the chef in Fintans Llanishen . I suggest look at the quality of chips being served and say would I eat that. Would those chips being served win awards NO Look at the feedback on tripadvisor and Google and think why so many poor comments. Im definately not going to be a regular as it will be disappointing on every visit, the one of visit twice year is ok as im not wasting my cash.

Best. Chip shop in this area Being going there since a was a youngster in my 60s now . Polite staff food is. Great. Clean and tidy shop. Prices not to bad compared to finntens .

my fish was lovely but the chips weren't great, a mix of soggy and small chips

Delivered on time. Good quality fish and chips.

Claim to have a ‘Vegan’ menu but cook everything in the same fryers as the meat! So absolutely nothing is vegan. Likely tricked a lot of people.

AVOID THIS PLACE LIKE THE PLAGUE. Thieves and liars. Plus the food is garbage. 1/5 is far too good for this dump. Find an honest and decent place there’s loads around.

Chips were gross, overcooked and looked like they have been there for hours.

Didn't get the Sweet Chilli with our king prawns unfortunately, but they still tasted great.

Crispy fish and decent chips delivered hot and pretty quick.

poor quality of chip, they we're bad ! tiny portion for the price i paid .... I will neva get from there again!!!

High quality fish and chips. Fish was chunky and moist with a light batter. The minted mushy peas were the best I have EVER had. Shame we are only visiting. Wish we had a local that good!

I’ve received my food at good quality however it has come without the chips that I had paid for only the mushrooms

lovely food as ever but if the driver asks for a tip then there's less chance of him getting one.

Always good when the fish arrives hot, fresh and covered in crispy batter.

Really disappointed with tonight’s food as usually the food is good.Only had large fish and chips but the batter was soggy and the chips were cold. Not great tbh

Amazing Irish chicken curry and calamari ordered and delivered from llanishen. Food piping hot and really good quality would highly recommend. Uber delivered within 15 minutes excellent service from Uber too

Awful experience. Never again.

Excellent value for money food is spot on would highly recomend if in the area

I had a most excellent Fish and Chips this evening. Well done 👍

Lovely crispy fish and chips. Delicious.

not as late as last time but still good. Shame the pies' pastry was too soft though.

Really enjoyed the food. Will definitely order again from here

pleased with service on time quality food

The Haddock was lovely but the description said "skinless and boneless" but there way skin on the fish. Luckily there were no bones. The chips were a bit dry and not cooked enough. They weren't crunchy on the outside or fluffy on the inside and the Colliflower In Batter was under cooked, very small, (I only received 4 pieces) and not worth the price.

But the only thing is they say they put seasoning on the chicken then they wrap the chicken in paper, you pull the paper off the skin comes off with it, they should use greaseproof paper to wrap the chicken in

The service was fantastic! The food so £9.50 for chicken curry and chips and was mainly chips and rice, a very tiny portion of chicken. Wouldn’t pay that again £40 for 4 people and portion was so small

Quick delivery, lovely food and hot 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Good tasty food but the tartar sauce was missing. Not a bit issue

Shame about the sausage missing it's batter, but otherwise really good.

Food ok, delivery bang on time sadly multiple food items missing from order. Attempted to have these re-delivered but vendor declined suggesting seeking a refund from Just Eat. This meant half of our dinner party were without food for another 45 minutes while we good food elsewhere.

Chips were hard and scraps definitely warm ups from yesterday, fish was burnt saveloy was all shriveled up and skin had fallen off ,all went in the bin waste of £30 tried calling no answer of course worst takeaway I've ever had ,will never go there again absolutely appalling!!

On time and the fish was fresh with the batter still crispy.

The food was lovely but we waited 3 hours for a driver to be found to deliver our food. We ordered at 6pm ad it arrived at 9pm.

Food very small portions and dry. Delivery late and restaurant not helpful. No apology from delivery driver. Won't order from there again. Had a very poor experience the last time with wrong food order and late.

I've worked there as Frayer before and I must say something went wrong Spiro. Your standard in comparison to top gun is downhill, dunno who is on Frayer but dude , fish is done when it floats, let it drip and check for white spots, don't over flour it , just tap it slightly shake of dip in batter let it drip of and as you put it in oil going be it a stir holding via tail part. Or next time I'll fry it myself. Kinda disappointed ☹️. Damian.

My friend Zoe is coeliac and we contacted the establishment to confirm if they offered any Gluten Free products on Sunday - as advertised on their website. Note the website states GF offered every day of the week at Pentwyn. Unfortunately they ghosted us and we’ve had to go about our days not having GF fish and chips.

The food was great as always. The best fish and chips in this area.

Took over 2 hours to arrive. When it came, all the food was cold.

So incredibly slow ..... Ignored at the till for 10 mins and then the food takes more than 30 minutes...

Chip’s could have been cooked a little longer very pale not much taste

Secret charge of a 3p bag to buy at 20p in order you can take home the food you’ve ordered?? Guy came in who’s a vulnerable person had bag of chips and wanted a bag so I paid the 20p what if I hadn’t been there Curry in a small tub, speciality fish appalling, more fish in a fish finger !! Thank god for the Victorian Fish bar

Called in as we were in the area. Ordered fish bites, 2 jumbo sausages and a large chips, thinking the chips would be enough for three adults, but nope. It was a shocking portion of chips, compared to most other chip shops, and for the price (£4.50). The staff in the shop were nice and there was nothing wrong with the food itself, but you're better off ordering a portion of chips per person.

Fish is cooked to order, chips taste good as well

The food was cold when it arrived.

Delicious fish and chips but dirty tables and chairs and a 20 min wait for takeaway Vegan menu only available on Mondays and Tuesdays

The food was over cooked. The chips were solid and splintered when you put a fork in them. The fish batter was really over cooked as was the fish which was dry and discoloured. The jumbo sausage was over cooked and dry. It all went in the bin.

We had chips here a few times tonight's are the worst chips they are hard as in over cooked or re dipped and didn't taste anywhere near fresh my sausage in batter was nice but my wife rissole was OK. There is a very loud noise from the generator so trying to have a chat is impossible.

Chicken leg was over cooked and so dried out I couldn't eat it and chips were dry and tasteless. Partners cod and Irish curry sauce was nice.

Fish was amazing, best I've had from a chip shop in years. Chips!!! Well! They were so undercooked they looked anaemic. The amount I received for the price they charged, was daylight robbery. Ordered some minty mushy peas too. Went straight in the bin! They tasted like a mushy pot of powder, which in no way tasted minty!! Was so disappointed as I'd heard good things about them. Would most definitely order Fish from them again, but as for anything else, no I wouldn't

Following app saying the driver was awaiting when he was outside our house. The food was cold though

Food disgusting fish dried to a crisp 3 items missing never again

I want a refund on my order it was inedible plus 3 items missing which I have been charged for

Ordered last week and all the food was really nice, so much so I added this compliment to this evening’s order. What a total difference in quality and service! The fish fillet was the smallest piece of fish that I have ever seen eventhough a large was ordered and paid for. The chips were not fresh and were all congealed into a stodgy greasy solid block of greasy cold potato. The pasty was very greasy too due to it being wrapped for so long and the curry sauce was stone cold. I ring the restaurant to complain and was informed that the food had been prepared/wrapped as soon as I submitted my order and the the Just Eat driver cancelled so they had to wait yet another 30mins for another driver so this was the reason all the food was cold. However, this is not a reason to justify the size of the fish and they should not have wrapped the food until the Just Eat driver arrived being it literally takes only minutes to wrap at a fish shop. What a total waste of £17+

Very slow and unprofessional staff here,avoid if is possible

An hour and a half late and food was cold and stodgy. Have been to fintans for years but first time through just eat. Appalling to have food delivered in such poor condition. Won’t stop going to fintans but will not order through just eat. Not professional and not acceptable. Sorry fintans but ditch just eat, they ruin your usually good quality food.

Worst fish and chips ever, just had delivery small cod and chips twice both were vile chips tasted stale fish was smelly never again

Just received an order from fintans Whitchurch via Uber great service and driver. Food was fresh and presented really well 😊

Good but there’s no option for a large chips on the menu

Excellent food, reasonably priced, great friendly staff.

The fish and chips were wonderful. Fintans never lets us down.

the food was hot, but portions very small

Well late compared to the original delivery estimate. Food was also like warm. Normally hot so let down this time

Regular fish and chip shop, but has a separate vegan menu that they fry separately from non-vegan items. Includes: Quorn battered sausage, battered mushrooms, battered cauliflower, vegan strips and a number of other items. Tasty food and friendly service.

I cancelled this order so didn't receive it.

Late. Cold. Delivered to wrong address. JUST EAT really let me down this time …. Awful service

Took a while but the food was tasty.

Not everything on my order turned up, not happy

There was no mushy peas in the fish supper or lemon wedge

Very disappointed with tonight’s visit!! My wife drove me here after a lovely evening out, as we had lovely fish and chips from here about a year ago. I ordered the chicken curry and chips at a cost of £8.05 when I got home the curry was dry and tasted powdery, there was little chicken considering the cost and the chips were undercooked. Overall inedible, I attempted to eat but really wasn’t enjoying it at all. Will be reluctant to return.

Very greasy, flavor of oil was unpleasant. I believe oil needed changing. Chips were inedible, more like fried mash potato. Fish when taken out of batter was nice.

This was our first order from Fintans and we were really impressed by the quality of the food and delivery time.

Delicious cod chips and mushy peas. A very generous portion of cod which was cooked to perfection.

Food not fresh,old chips and freshly cooked chips mixed together .and not nice. When i am paying for my meal l would like it that i can eat and enjoy it. Without having to throw most of it in the bin. Anyone recommend a nice chippy

This what was delivered . Should have been chicken curry and rice very very disappointed

Chicken curry. More like chicken in gravy. Nothing like chippy lane. They just want to maximise their profits. Sort sighted wont use again.

Disappointing in future I'll stick to having Aldi frozen Cod or haddock in beer battered.

Huge portion, delivered within time frame given and so hot it was like it had literally just come out of the fryer!

Can't find anything good to say. Was offered vegan food that they warned me might have meat in it Even the chips weren't cooked. Go buy food elsewhere in Whitchurch.

Food was delicious, will definitely order again

Lovely food. Will definitely recommend

Chips were weirdly covered in dry burned patches. Peas came as a tiny tub that you normally get with fish not a proper portion as paid for. Wasn't very hot either. Came 20 min late despite pre-ordering in plenty of time.

Shocking. Ordered sausage and chips. Sausage was fine. Chips were clearly ‘processed’ frozen garbage. Didn’t even use real potatoes. Texture was all wrong and zero flavour. Scandalous practice from a UK chippy.

It should be illegal to make food this good seriously.. i got irish curry with chicken and chips and battered mars bar and i couldnt stop eating it was too good seriously im so full i cant cope I will be ordering this so much now ..

Forgot the lemon wedge but very tasty food. Cod cooked beautifully.

Small portion of chips for £4.50 yes £4.50 lol (supposed to be large) undercooked and tasteless wont use this chip shop again

The food was piping hot!! Well done 😀

Some Chicken pieces bit tough otherwise fine.

You will wait and wait the young guy on the counter was cocky and arrogant. The older guy with white beard seving food wiped his nose twice at the till with his hand and again over 3 open trays of chips made no attempt to wash his hands. Finally got served to be given the scaping off chips that were left nowhere near a portion. First and last time.

First, I visit both store lications (Pentwny and Whitchurch) and there is a disparity in the quality and service between the two. Starting with Whitchurch: The service isnt great. I'be been in several times and there have been large numbers of people waiting for an order, yet you'll see staff wandering around aimlessly or chatting instead of serving or preparing. They dont prioritise grab and go orders, so there is often a long wait for simple orders simply because the 5 people ahead are waiting for fish to be cooked. (I once was asked to wait 20 minutes after ordering a single pie that was on shelf ready to go...?) The food quality is typically good but again theres a disparity between locations, with the chips here being lovely but battered products missing the mark (over or under cooking). Pentwyn: Service is better but again, if you are in a queue, even simple orders will have you waiting. The staff are however always active and friendly. I prefer the side orders and fish from this location, always done perfectly. The chips are a bit hit and miss though. I've had several experiences whereby the chips are undercooked. But, overal the food and service are good.

Me and my daughter had food there earlier, stunning food also really friendly

Really nice chips, great choice of vegetarian food, friendly and fast service. Will definitely go there again.
