Lovely fresh fish lightly battered just how we like it the service from a lady called Ellie was lovely She was very funny and polite. I would’ve given this a five, but I did find the prices quite expensive.

My favourite coastline chippy. Staff are always chatty with a nice service and smile. Fish is always cooked while waiting keeping for t nice and fresh with a good batter 🐠 Ellie the server and Ellie the cook work well together engaging the customers and offering free tea or coffee while you wait, bonus 🙂👍🏼

Fish and chips and Chinese curry was lovely. Chips nice and thick, Soft on the inside and crispy on the outside, just perfect. Warm and welcoming Welsh hospitality. And to top it all, a complimentary coffee while I waited for the fresh fish......amazing.

The staff are rude, and clearly not trained in customer service. The staff are rude to customers faces and make jokes about them behind their backs. The restaurant does not pick up litter from the outside seating area. The food is not the best either, so overall I wouldn’t go here again.

Our favourite fish & chip shop. Fish is huge & beautifully cooked - chips are the best I've tasted in a long while (golden, not greasy, not all bits - nice chunky chips). Not sure what we will do when the Porthcawl refurbishment starts as this is one of the businesses scheduled to be removed. Fingers crossed they will find a new premises.

By far the best fish and chips I've had for a long time, a local got me to try the irish curry sauce (don't know why it's irish?), and it was lovely. Walked round the corner and ate them on the beach, I was even offered a free cup of tea while I waited for the fish to cook. 5 stars 🌟 all the way.

Best fish n chips I've had anywhere for quite a while. Generous proportions. Really tasty fish - served straight from the fryer so could not be any fresher. Chips just as good - traditional/proper chips rather than the horrid process ones of so many outlets today. And loads of mushy peas to make a complete and satisfying meal. All at a reasonable price - what more could anyone wish for!

Food was amazing for one of my cousins kids as he is highly restricted on his diet and was able to eat a proper full meal for the first time in a while. The staff where great and able to have a little bit of a laugh and the atmosphere is what you’d expect from a sea front chippy but they did have dandelion and burdock which you don’t see often anymore 10/10 place to eat.

We go to Mansels for gluten-free and ordinary options The best in the area Being Porthcawl it is sometimes hectic but we go out of season too Fish and chips delicious and despite skipping lunch I’ve never been able to finish my chips It may be small but gives good efficient service even offering tea or coffee while I waited for food to be cooked I will be sad to see this go when the fair closes. Please find alternative premises Mansels

As a non-profit, it’s a nightmare to find catering that covers everyone on our film crew within our budget and is enough food to energise everyone for the day.

Chips should be cooked a few minutes longer so that they aren't white, needs to be a little brown because they look under cooked otherwise.

I do not live in a town with easy gluten free fish and chip options. It has quite literally been years since I've eaten any. For the first time in a lifetime, I ate what could only be described as the most crisp, fluffy, fulling battered sausage and chips. With CURRY SAUCE! It was as thick as it was flavourful. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Lovely staff, lovely food. Thank you.

Always USED to go here but after yesterdays experience never again! I got what I thought was a huge tray of chips, but turned out it was mainly scraps, see photo which is ALL scraps. The chips had a funny taste to them too and felt very sickly soon after eating the few actual chips that I received. I am still not feeling well the following day! Yes I should have said something at the time, but my friend (the driver) was in a rush to get back home. Always been fine in the past but as I say not going here again... And £11 for fish and chips?

I like this chippy better than beals if I'm honest. I tried finnigans in town centre and was not impressed with the price, nearly £9.00 for jumbo sausage and chips even though I was informed after leaving the review when I got home that it was unlimited chips and let's be honest most of the time one plate of chips is enough. The jumbo sausage and chips here is half the price of what I paid at finnigans. Will be back to mansels in the future. Just for reference a jumbo sausage here is £2.00 and at Finnegan's £6.00.

Called here a few days ago for chips in the afternoon, as I queued up I noticed there weren't any social distancing sticker warnings, hand sanitizer or anything. The 2 people who were serving weren't even wearing masks but people who were in there used their common sence thank god. Waited for chips to be cooked when blonde woman who was serving went by the door not even outside and lit a cigarette up, all the smoke was coming in and people were coughing. I thought I'd wait to see if she'd go outside to finish but no she just stayed in the door puffing away. So I waited further to see if she washed her hands after her ciggie and and pulling the knickers from her arse and guess what?? She went straight behind the counter and started serving again!!! Totally disgusted I looked at her and walked straight out. Never again, I gave them the benefit of doubt last time but no way am I stepping foot in there again. How they have a 5 hygiene rating is beyond me.
