Les & Rita's Fish Bar in Denbighshire

Lovely fish and chips food is beautiful and freshly cooked staff are so lovely prices are so cheap definitely recommend it little gem

This is a British chippy - at its best. The proper frying range - setting, seating - food and staff. Cooked to perfection and batter to die for - melts in your mouth. EAT IN price special - fish, chips, mushy peas + 2 cup pot of tea >>> £6 (as in SIX pounds) each. We set off on the seafront 1/4 of a mile away - asked a local - where the nearest proper chippy was. The guy replied - its not the nearest but if you want the BEST "Les & Ritas" - and gave us directions - everybody - we asked along the way "is this the right way to Les & Ritas" knew them and re-confirmed remaining directions. (thats some recommendation in itself) Well worth the walk - and we went back - twice more. Thanks to all the staff Graham & Jo (Sheffield)

Great food. Had mini fish and chips. Good portion size and could not fault the food Service was excellent - the staff are really friendly. Definitely a place to revisit. Thank you.

Excellent meal ,fish n chips and sausage n chips both ordered both excellent ,freshly made and a really cheap price ,will defo return

Went here for a change for fish and chips and asked the waitress if the fish was COD as I don't eat haddock and she said yes, when it arrived on the plate cut it open and it was grey and a very strong taste 110% certain is was not COD, the chips were not god as well, the best thing was the pot of tea, on the way home had to go for a Chinese take away, a total waste of money NEVER AGAIN.

Lovely fish and chips and great value in the restaurant for the special. Staff were lovely too. Only reason I can’t give 5 stars is because I’m from Yorkshire and there’s no fish and chips like The Magpie in Whitby or Skyliner in Leeds!

Great fish and chips...Good banter with staff about being mentioned In the times newspaper. But most of all piping hot cheap as chips and delicious. Best I've had in ages. Will go back before end of the holiday.

Absolutely beautiful food. Piping hot, big portions and the quality was superb. We live locally but this was our first visit, can't wait to go again!

Great value for money. Perfect tea. We had the fish and chip special, friendly staff. Will go again. You have to be before 6 pm for eating in option.

I want to listen metres and I asked for chicken and chips I'm gravy and bread and butter and a pot tea. the chips just melt in your mouth the food was lovely I've never tasted chips like them. it is always very clean and staff are very helpful and they're very hard working. we'll never get a chip shop like this if it ever went. Thankyou virginia

First impressions weren't great. The waitress pointed us to a table at the back which still had the previous customers plates on it. We expected her to return to clear the table but she didn't. There wasn't even a menu for us to look at. We made eye contact with the waitress several times but she remained at the other end of the restaurant and ignored us. Thankfully another waitress came to serve the table next to us and noticed our plight. She was lovely and apologetic. She cleared the table and gave us menus and got the original waitress to come and take our order. Sadly she went from ignoring us to giving us about 20 seconds to read the menu. Anyway I had the mini fish, chips and peas and it was delicious. Fish perfectly cooked, the mushy peas were the best I have tasted for a long time. This chips were fine, not the best I've had but pretty good. The rest of the family had sausage and chips and they all enjoyed it. Very reasonably priced. They just need to sort out the young waitress.

Visited on a day trip to Rhyl after reading reviews , the fish and chips special must be one of the best value meals anywhere. Fish, chips,mushy peas, pot of tea cooked to order and delicious with waitress service and spotless toilets £7.50 Fantastic.

Found this place on trip advisor, Great fish, chips, peas and pot of tea for £7.50 what’s not to like, not a small fish either, there was plenty to eat no skimping on the portions. Great staff 👍

We had heard about this fish & chip shop and so glad we found it. Excellent food, good, friendly service and very good value for money. Will definitely use again

Great value, service and fish and chips what more is there to say. It deserves its v good reputation. Bla bla ………………………..

Best place to grab something quick for dinner on them days when not in mood for cooking. Great service Great value for money and keeps the whole family happy for dinner time. Well done to all the staff for your continuous service and customer service 💯

If you are desperate and broke , and you will be for you have found yourself a. in Rhyl and b. hungry - then you could do far worse than try Les and Rita's - this must be the least cost Chish and Fips in the UK - unless of course you know different - never mind the kid's asking why the fish is a funny grey colour and the chips are like Farm Foods oven rejects , soak up the value for money ! And yes , the Peas are excellent as are the friendly staff and clientele -

Best chippy in Rhyl by far. Fish fabulous good value for money and really nice welcoming staff. We'll worth a visit

I have been eating fish & chips from Les & Ritas since the bank on the corner had 40 staff and was called Midland Bank! Without exception the quality had always been of a very high standard and I would have recommended them to anybody. However, today the chips tasted slightly burnt and were tasteless - not far off from being like 'oven chips'. The peas and baked beans were dry as if they had been standing on the heat for a long time. The quality of the fish and batter was good. This was disappointing, but hopefully was a one off - we all have off days!

Called in today for 2 mini fish, chips and peas to take away. The chips, fish and peas were cooked to perfection. The only criticism I have is the size of the mini fish portions, it was mediocre! The cost was £12.60 for the 2 and was a disappointment compared to previous visits.

We used tripadvisor to find a well regarded fish and chip shop in Rhyl on our way along the North Coast of Wales. We found disabled parking nearby, but it was the first time on our holiday that we had to pay when using a blue badge. It was exactly what we wanted: fish and chips at a reasonable price where we could sit in. We even took away the extra chips we didn't eat!

Went on Thursday evening and managed to get a parking space outside . There was a lot of people waiting outside but the queue went down very quickly. We would have sat inside but we were to late as they close at 7 .There staff were all very friendly and the place was spotless. The fish and chips were second to none and were a very reasonable price . Well worth the drive from rhos on sea . Would make this my go to chippy

Les & Rita's Fish Bar. what a gem of a place Great fish & chips lovely welcome, friendly atmosphere. . . thanks to Paula an staff for making me feel really welcome . Brilliantly cooked fish chips an peas . But the best is the price WOW £6.40 fish chips peas pot of tea . YEAH £6:40 FISH CHIPS MUSHY PEAS & A POT OF TEA couldn't believe. Well worth it an the fish chips peas superb I really recommend Les & Rita's fish bar lovely food an definitely value for money an I definitely be going again

This is a proper old school chippy with fast no-nonsense service, excellent food and keep prices. Highly recommended!

Large fish special was superb. No matter how many times I come here the meal is excellent. Consistent quality with friendly service.

After seeing this chippy making a list giving it the title of 2nd best chippy in the country, we had to try whilst staying in Rhyl. So when passing through the town centre on our way back from a day trip to Llandudno we stopped off for dinner later afternoon. From the outside (and the inside really), it doesn't look like much. Just your usual chippy but with inside seating. It was quiet when we arrived with plenty of free tables and we were greeted by friendly staff almost immediately. The menu is fairly small however has the staples and it seemed like items were made to order as nothing was sat under the heat lamps. My partner went for fish, chips and mushy peas whilst I had fishcake and chips. After a short wait our food was delivered to our table, portion sizes were decent and it was a genuinely really nice meal. The chips were lovely, fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside. We both enjoyed our fish and my partner commented on how nice the batter was. It was really good value too, we paid about £14 for two filling meals and drinks each. I only wish this chippy was closer so I could visit again! If you're planning on fish and chips in Rhyl then you really do have to come here.

The fish, chips & mushy peas were the best I have ever tasted. It was very clean The staff were friendly

Always come here but lately the portions have been going smaller but the price going larger. Do expect things to increase in price the way things are but your getting less for your money now food wise. Ordered adult meals but were mire like a kids size portioned. Was hungry again not long after. Service was very quick and meals came fairly quick. But if really hungry may go elsewhere in future as get more for your money.

Best chippy I’ve had to date. We came in as a family of five, managed to get a large booth. Plenty of room. My husband was going to go up and order and we was then informed it was in fact table service. Which doesn’t usually happen in chip shops. The place was clean. Only downfall was the toilet was out of use, I’m not sure if they’re broken or they don’t want people coming in to just use toilet. (If this is the case, maybe pop a key lock on the doors and keep key behind the counter for customer only usage) The gravy was really nice, chips were incredibly tasty. The fish was chunky, crispy and not at all stodgy. Really lovely meal. We all practically polished off our plates and that’s a rarity with my children. 🤣 My husband enjoyed his steak pie. My eldest lad had a chicken burger and he was impressed also. Highly recommend! One last mention to the staff, incredibly friendly, super happy and make you feel very welcome.

Amazing fish and chips. Staff really friendly and great with the kids. This place was amazing. We seen online it was voted second best in the country so couldn’t give it a miss while in the area. Fish was perfect along with every thing else. Curry sauce and gravy were also really good. Place was busy so don’t be surprised if you have to queue for a small amount of time. Will definitely return when back in this area.

We were visiting Rhyl anyway and happened to see this chip shop in the Sunday Tines list of best chippies in the country so we decided to have a take away. The fish was lovely and no skin which for me is always a sign of quality. Chips were a little greasy for my liking. The staff were friendly and helpful. This is undoubtedly the best chippie in Rhyl but not sure it’s the best in the UK though. Worth a visit however. Just one criticism. In this day and age with climate change we all need to do our bit so it was desperately disappointing to get served in a polystyrene container and with a plastic chip fork. Loads of other places have converted to cardboard/wood. I really hope you do so as well.

Fantastic fish & chips, loved it, thanks to Caley (sorry if wrong spelling) in the kitchen 10+ highly recommended

My husband read that this chippy was the 2nd best in the country so we took a ride out to find it. It didn’t disappoint, the staff were friendly and very helpful and the fish and chips were definitely some of the best we have had. We didn’t eat in we took them by the sea and when we told the staff where we were going they gave us forks and napkins without asking for them. Will definitely be going again.

First time since pre Covid when discovered this cafe after the airshow after seeing the excellent reviews. A business doesn’t exist for so long if it isnt good. If anything food better on this visit. Just excellent fish and chip special with a good cup...

The place was absolutely rammed at 5:30pm on a red hot Friday but it still took less than ten minutes for our order to come through. Fish and chips for 5 people at just over £30 and it was amazing. Cooked lovely, really tasty food....

Simply delicious! It was Friday night so we were expecting a queue, but we weren't waiting too long and everything was cooked fresh to order. Great portion sizes and excellent value. Very tasty (not greasy!) fish and chips, fantastic curry sauce!

Popped in for lunch and the food was fantastic. The fish was cooked so well. Service quick and very good. Great value for money

Had the best fish chips and peas (fish was amazing) that we’ve had in years! Lovely friendly people and the best service we have ever had!! We was served within 5 minutes with fresh hot food. It’s also brilliantly priced. We will definitely be returning!

Service was quick and staff friendly. Food came out quickly and was very nice and tasty,couldn't fault it. Will continue to come back. Only fault was we did wait a while for the bill so we ended up going to the till and getting it...

Called in for lunch after Xmas break. As ever, superb. Cod special for £6.70 excellent value for money. Wife had prawn curry for £6.40. Both delicious. Pleasant waitress. Can't wait for next visit.

Nice chip shop for the family on our little winter break, chips and sausages can’t go wrong the family enjoyed

Food was OK. Staff are very rude in there. One or 2 in particular. Staff can be abrupt and make you feel uncomfortable. Always hit an miss

Food all in all was really nice,portions do look a bit smaller which is odd because the price has gone up. Get the impression they care more for the regulars or the 'oldies'. When served there was no smile,it was just a case of what...

Excellent service, ate in at lunch time. Fish, chips and a cuppa, what more could you want on the beautiful Welsh coast. Superb, fresh fish, lovely chips. highly recommended,

Visited Friday as we were in the area, chips were so dry they went to the seagull's on the prom will stick with mandys near Sainsbury's in future

Drove 5 hours for this meal after getting recommended off me mate clarkey and wow wasn’t disappointed mmmmmmmm

Really yummy fish & chips, good sized portions and definitely value for money. The only negative I would say is that they should think about more environmentally friendly packaging and also wooden forks rather than plastic

Fantastic old school restaurant. Great food, staff and surroundings. Great value for money. The fish chips and peas with pot of tea 6 pounds. Delicious. Would recommend.

Called today for 2 Cod Specials. £6.15 each. Excellent no nonsense lunch. Food spot on. Friendly and efficient waitress service. Refurbished toilets re opened. Will definitely be calling again.

Would have loved to make it 3 or 4 star. Get the impression they probably look after regulars as we waited 25 minutes to be told by a regular member of Staff yours is on its way. 15 minutes later it arrived. We have a...

So, myself and my other half had never been to Rhyl before… looking at the reviews we were expecting an amazing visit. I actually picked out this restaurant as a “must”. We arrived and there was a sign asking us to wait to be seated…...

Two cod specials. £6 each incl tea. Absolutely delicious. Very good service. Only downside is they still haven't re opened toilets

Staff were not rude but very unbothered and pretty unfriendly. Portion size just about ok, fish quite nice. Chips greasy and underwhelming. Although salt and vinegar requested, couldn’t taste or see any evidence of any, so don’t think it was added. Really disappointing all round.

This is top for service and quality and cost is unbelievably for what you get. We had fish special and nothing short of excellent and all for £6.Yes six pounds.

Just called in with my wife for 2 fish specials. Absolutely delicious. Great service. All for £6 each. Looking forward to next visit.

Fish and chips were amazing. Staff really helpful. Thanks for all your help. First class service 👍 On holiday with our service users. Highly recommend this place.

Not just the fish and chips, the tea and coffee were great . Friendly and advised best way to negotiate the specials to better buy food 5*

My cousin recommended going here and our 7 year old grandson requested fish and chips. We decided to eat in and saw all covid rules were being followed so felt safe as I have been shielding most if the year and still wear a visor....

Definitely one of the better chip shops in rhyl. Can't complain about the price or the quality to be fair

Staff were rude and u got treated like cattle. The fish and chips was very very average. Only went because of the reviews. Wish I didn’t

We sat in for a mini fish and chips and a large fish and chip - both served with bread and butter and a pot of tea. Excellent quality and value for money with a friendly service, we will certainly come again.

Very reasonably priced, food is decent quality chippy stuff. Staff were very kind and the service was good. It was irritating that the toilets were shut. Apparently this is because they don't have the staffing levels to sanitise after every use: I'm sure they don't,...

Decided to visit after seeing the reviews on Tripadvisor. Didn't let us down! Excellent food and service.

Absolutely delicious last visit was 6 years ago and was good then too, Covid safe measures in place and was very clean the %50 off was an bonus I’d go and pay full price any day.

went there for a takeaway meal on friday which i ordered on the phone to pick up later,absolutely first class service from telephone conversation to all staff and service.food was cooked to perfection and tasted fab.Well done everyone,will certainly be back

Absolutely love the fish and chips from here all freshly cooked. All the staff are friendly and the prices are great too!

went there with friends for lunch quickly served really enjoyed our fish and chips with tea to follow all in the price good value for money.

Good size fish friendly staff always fresh fish cooked and chips wish they done chinese curry though !!

Came here for a traditional fish & chips meal & wasn't disappointed! The fish was lovely and fresh and the service was fast! Plenty of seating available and the price was such good value for money

This place is as good as it's ever been from a kid growing up to an adult never dissapointed and friendly staff

Came to visit Rhyl and googled places to eat. Les and Rita's had good reviews and was a short walk from where we were staying. We came on Saturday 4th January about 4pm and were thrilled. The food was amazing. Loved the fact that they brought the drinks and our bread out straight away, as it gave the children something to have while we waited. Portion sizes were good but not over-facing. We were so happy and, the only down side was, we wish they had been open on the Sunday, as we would definitely have gone back the next day. It was also nice to be acknowledged for our children's good behaviour, by the lady behind the counter, who was cheerful and lovely to talk to. We will be back! :-)

Great food and service every time we visit. Well done to the team of staff who always work so hard and are always smiling!!!

Fish and chips cooked whilst you wait.Excellent food and value for money.This is a definite try.You won’t be disappointed
