Marina Fish Chips & More in Pembrokeshire

Disappointed. Greasy fish and chips served in a takeaway box to eat in. Chips needed slightly more cooking. Restaurant had the atmosphere of a waiting room. Food was overpriced for what we would pay in east sussex.

takeaway £4 chips only . Oh my god hardly any chips for this price

They evidently just hike up the prices here as they know they'll get away with it, being the only chip shop in Saundersfoot (now the Argosy is closed). The chips were incredibly mediocre for the £7 (!?!) I paid. Really disappointed.

Well what a difference, we thought the last time we visited Saundersfoot, fish n chips wasn't great! But after a long journey ...really hungry! Gave it another go, and what a disappointment! Everyone looked the same! Lots of food left .....in boxes...... No plates anymore when you eat in!

Beautifully cooked pieces of fish and chips. Went in near the end of service. Staff very pleasant.

The fish was lovely but the chips were rubbish...soggy and inedible...never go there again...

Where do I start, firstly there is no atmosphere in here, it was just completely silent. They have an order and then collect other end system, but the staff served the tickets in any order they felt like, no system in place. And then finally this has to be the worst chips I've ever had, no taste at all and the battered sausage just tasted of oil and all at a high price.

This is an expensive chip shop with a very poor selection on its menu with only two choices but even then the food is swful

Limited fish menu, but the cod was cooked to perfection, batter was light and not greasy, fish was fresh, moist and flaky.

Excellent cod juicy white flakes crispy thin batter would have given 5 stars but binned most of chips

As always the food was good but wasn't keen on it being served in a cardboard box.Bring back plates please

Very busy, so service a little slow but worth the wait because the fish and chips were well cooked and very tasty. Well worth a visit.

The most expensive takeaway fish n chips I've ever had but unfortunately not the best. Thought this must be a really good place as there was a long queue out of the door. Fish n chips were £14, with no option for a half portion of chips. The fish was good 4* but the chips were dry and undercooked with half of them not being edible.

Won't return. Food ok but expensive and also lacked any sort of service unfortunately. Location central though

Horrible place. Nearly £50 for 3 adult portions and 1 kids portion. Fish and chips both bland and undercooked, ended up in the bin.

Wow! in a bad way, the place looks nice but i had the worst fish & chips for a long time. The chips were warm potatoes compared to anything that had been in the fryer. The staff all look very beaten down and grumpy but it was a Saturday night in August i went in so probably fed up! Such a shame there also wasn’t any local fish on the menu except from usual north sea cod!

Rude staff, particularly a lady called Amila. The food was okay but really expensive and not enough of it for the price.

I’m unsure if they had clean oil but these chips were vile! Greasy and unappealing, spent £36 on chips and sausage the only things we ate were the sausage. Would no recommend at all! Would recommend changing the oil on a daily basis, the little shake infront of this establishment puts these guys to shame!

The place was a Shear ripoff way over price discussing food 40 pound for 2 small fish and chips and 2 coffee s avoid if possible discussing food

Total rip off prices are sky high for portions you get £7:50 for that

Stopped at this chip shop to enjoy dinner on the seafront after a long day. Over £17 for 2 x sausage in batter ,chips and 1 tiny pot of curry sauce. Extortionate pricing for portion in a standard chip shop. Quality of food was poor. Chips were scrappy and dark in colour (poor quality ingredients?) and sausage in batter was not at all pleasant, odd batter consistency. No real customer service either… called out your number and walked away, no thanks or any conversation from staff.

You cook your chips in beef dripping… chips? Busy though, lots of customers No parking, miserable staff. Sorry

Called here today for fish and chips, was surprised at prices, however the fish was huge, lovely crispy batter, perfectly cooked and chips were lovely. Great to have a piece of lemon on the side. We thoroughly enjoyed the food, service was great and so quick. I would highly recommend. Thanks for a lovely lunch.

Very lovely seaside-y inside, proper diner style decor Fish and Chips had a great taste, salt, vinegar, lemon, but the chips were very soft - couldn't even pick them up with the fork - they just mushed Tasty, chips were soft, would eat here again

I have had a awfully bad experience as some of the staff especially the younger boys but also the female at the counter has had very badly manners i am very disappointed with my experience at Mariana fish and chips and i will not be returning due to badly mannered staff. i believe as it said on my receipt that her name was ayina? 😕🥺😭

No vegetarian option - not even chips! Unfortunately, the chips aren’t veggie friendly so I wasn’t able to get anything to eat. My wife and kids had fish chunks and chips, which were only okay apparently, but I had to get food elsewhere!

Went here to pick up some chips and 4 chicken nuggets , after seeing the top end restaurant prices , i was slightly taken back . Person on the till just taking every order possible then 1 person serving food about 30 people waiting inside dor thier food absolute shambles 45 mins from taking our cash to getting our food . Seems to me they are just there to make as much money as possible wont be going back the food was standard at best .

Had takeaway fish delicious lots of chips in a potion

Food tasteless dirty tables dirty seats should have to clean own chair

We waited 40 minutes for takeaway food. Didn't seem to have the capacity in the kitchen/serving area to cope with summer trade. Mistakes were being made frequently on orders as we stood waiting for our food. Understandly, the one lad that seemed to be keeping service moving was showing his frustration. Wouldn't go a miss to get a smile from the lady taking my money at the till! Portion sizes vs price were shocking!! Barely had enough chips to half fill my tray. Slightly overcooked food in general...chips, sausage and fish

Chips were so dry I cut the roof of my mouth, very expensive for the amount of food on the plate. Would not recommend.

Purchased about 12 ish on 17 July 2024…Overpriced for the quality of the chips, and couldn’t be described as plentiful… however the chicken nuggets bought for my 2 yr old granddaughter appeared (in hindsight) to have been reheated (more brown and crusty batter than normal). She didn’t eat them in the end so I had 2 not to make it an even bigger waste of money. Later that night my stomach started to have cramps and subsequent reaction of many toilet visits. My wife, other granddaughter and I had a sausage with our chips … this was all I had to eat on the day … I was the only one who was ill. I’m grateful my little granddaughter didn’t touch them.

Lovely place and amazing fish but we were disappointed by the chips and the portion size is the chips as it’s not cheap. Highly recommend the fish chunks as these were a good size for small portions.

This place is an absolute rip off. £40 for two adults and child and the food was poor. Extortionate prices for small portions of below average food.

Dreadful, pale soggy batter and hard chips for £31! Most definitely would not return.

Decent fish and chip to dine in or takeaway. Basic but very tasty. Cod was larger than I expected and served very quickly for a Friday early evening. Nice cuppa too

Massively overpriced and rude unwelcoming staff.

Absolutely appalling service, terrible chips and disgusting gravy. Also massively overpriced. Huge disappointment.

Really good fish and chips this, really tasty chips which must have been cooked in beef tallow as they were so tasty. Large well cooked fish with crispy batter, nice location on the seafront. My only reservation was the price at £14 for fish and chips and £1.80 for a small portion of peas.

Moody service, overpriced, tiny portion. Wouldn’t bother

Very lovely food, however it was very expensive and for cheesy chips you have to melt the cheese yourself they don't put it on.

The only chippy I have ever seen that purely cooks in beef drippings. Nothing suitable for non-meaters. The man who served us didn’t bother recommending anywhere else suitable. Just a flat ‘no’ when we asked if it could be cooked in veg oil. We found a lovely spot up the road by ourselves called The Argosy !

Very busy when we visited and the queue for takeout was next to people eating in. Chips were tasteless and portions small. Sausage was fine. Expensive for what it was, probably paying more for location.

Unbeatable Fish & Chips... Sure you can get other stuff but in 16 years we've only ever had Fish & Chips 😂

Nice Fish and chips but £14 for them to take out in a box is expensive but thats a tourist trap chippy for you.

Very poor quality. Chips were tasteless and unappetising to look at. Fish was expensive but did not taste great. Chicken in batter were quite greasy.

The poorest chips I've had in a long time. Dry, flavourless and old-looking. The cod/batter were very good. Service was great. Friendly, chatty assistant took the order.

On auf first night in Saundersfoot we decided to get fish and chips for dinner and take it back to our cottage to eat and relax. We ordered cod, chips and curry sauce twice - it cost £31.60 and they give you a number while you wait for your meal to be prepared. Your number is then called and you are given your meal/s. The salt and vinegar is on a table and you put your own on your meals. This place was very busy and clean with very friendly staff. We took our food back to our cottage and I must admit it was really nice and there was a lot of it, so much so that we couldn’t eat it all so left some to reheat the next day. We may well go back again before we go home as it was well worth the money spent.

The taste of the chips and everything fried here is bizzare because it's all cooked in beef dripping!!! 100% do not recommended unless you like everyyto taste of beef!?

Stopped here today for takeaway, not impressed, lady serving was yawning constantly, had 2 battered sausages and a portion of chips and a curry sauce, order came finally, took back to car, chips were near on cold, sausages were too hot to bite into and as for the batter it was disgusting, had to remove it where it tasted so oily. Only on returning home I realised we never had the curry sauce, it was so busy it obviously got overlooked.

This place is absolutely shocking , the fish bites were tasteless and very dry . The chips were cold . For 3 adults and 1 child meal it cost us nearly £60 which in my opinion is ridiculous. We could have had a sit down meal in a nice restaurant for that .. will never return ( local family )

Been 2 years since I last came here, was overpriced and small portions then, but at least it was good food which kind of made it worth while, today was overpriced, small portions despite ordering a large and didn't taste great very soggy chips.

Way over priced and small portions, asked for a large chips but more like small £4 and 2 jumbo sausage £6.20 scandalous should be ashamed of yourselves ripping people off!!!

Stopped here to buy some chips for the kids this weekend. Not sure if they're new owners but the lady serving us had incredibly bad service and was miserable. She hardly used any words to communicate and literally gestured with her head as to where to queue instead of simply saying 'Queue there please'. The service was appalling, the chips weren't anything special either. having eaten here a few years back, it seemed that the place has gone downhill. Like I said, not sure if it's new owners but I'm sure we enjoyed it before. Beef dripping chips arent anything special either. Saundersfoot is great, go and stay or visit, but I advise to give the Marina chippy a miss.

Greasy, bland and overpriced. Really don't mind paying when it's good but it was tasteless. With it's position it has the potential to be great, but it's not.

Perfect spot for some fish and chips by the beach!

extremely nice sausage + chips. will buy from again.

Bought a takeaway. Very disappointed with the chips ,they weren't very nice. The staff were very miserable. Not much on the menu .

I first visited Marina 4 years ago on a solo walking trip in Pembrokeshire. I came back this week with my family. The food is still great but the place seems to have tried to go more upmarket, there are lots of extra costs you have to factor in such as & £1 for a little pot of mayo and £1.60 for a bread bap. I wanted a small sausage for my 1 year old son and was charged £3.25 for a jumbo sausage. We would still go again because the food is yummy and the location good but will factor in the extra costs.

Mixed reviews at this place but on the day we visited it was quiet. Service was reasonable as cooked to order, portion size was good and the food was tasty, the cod being large and overhanging the plate. For 2 cod and chips, 2 diet cokes and a tasty curry sauce it came to just over £ 32, so no longer a poor mans supper and local restaurants seem to charge around the same but in a more comfortable environment. Might have got 5 stars but the small pots of mayo and tartare sauce behind the counter were 75p each so a bit pricey for what they were. However enjoyable meal overlooking the harbour.

Avoid at all cost food over priced and not very fresh or good

Great little fish restaurant Please follow me on Instagram @outandaboutonindianscout

Do Not Use this place for a meal if you are vegetarian. I ordered food for myself and my wife and while I sat to waited, I read the menu and only at that point did I notice that it said all food is cooked in beef dripping. I went to the counter to ask to which the reply was yes so I explained we were vegetarian and at that point the attitude changed as the pointed out a tiny message next to the till saying this. There should be a bigger sign in the window saying, not suitable to vegetarians! Very poor, although a refund was given!

Sadly this place has dropped of my 'must visit' list when Im at the coast. The food is poor quality. The choice even worse.

Nice fish but prices are inflated to the point of being extortionate. Nearly £13 for a small portion of takeaway fish and chips is excessive even given inflation. £1.60 for a pot of curry sauce about the third the size of normal chippies also snacks of profiteering

I've worked in hospitality for 25+ years and as soon as I walked in with 7 other members of my family, I instantly felt like leaving. The atmosphere was terrible, I felt like we were being constantly watched. Service was cold and non existent, helping ourselves to cutlery, £1.05 for tartar sauce? Really? The fish was nice but that was it unfortunately. There is much more I can say, but I think as they have passing trade they don't really care, it could be a really great place, big shame.

Absolutely shocking £26 for 2 fish and chips can totally understand we all need to make money but that is absolutely shocking ripping people off definitely won't be returning

One of the best fish and chip shops around didnt wait long for your food staff were really friendly if you are planning a trip to saundersfoot I would recommend going here

Don't bother going. It's gone down hill. The food is tasteless and the service was mot very friendly. It's a great shame, because I've been going there for years. And also sadly, I know that this review won't get posted.

£45 for 4 chips and 4 sausages , and four mini pots of gravy . And two drinks of Coke ! Wouldn’t mind if you got the volume of food matching the price . The smallest amount of chips and a dash of gravy absolute rip off of a place won’t go there again

We're regular customers at this restaurant and have been so for many years. The fish and chips are the best for miles around. The quality and excellence of service has always been consistently high. The prices reasonable and the atmosphere pleasant. We highly recommend The Marina as a family. It's our favourite place to go regularly in all of Pembrokeshire. I'd like to thank all the staff and management for your wonderful service. Merry Christmas and a happy new year.

Stopped by on a cold Monday evening and had a delicious meal. One cod and sausage and chips with quite big portions. Especially the cod so might recommend going smaller for the cod bites in future. Overlooking the harbour. Very lovely.

We drove to Tenby harbour and my wife spotted this restaurant so after walking about the town we ended up here we ordered two cod one portion of chips and for me a portion of mushy peas it was good especially the chips which were cooked in real dripping ,the only whinge was a steep set of stairs that led down to the toilets

The chips were raw and the fish was very small for the amount of money we paid. Wouldn't go there again.

Visited the marina fish & chip shop on saundersfoot harbour with friends on 28th October can honestly say the fish and chips and curry sauce were amazing. Very happy customer from Birmingham

Delicious, great portions and lovely location

Needed cheering up this evening after work on an extremely wet weather day. Shammi cooked the most delicious and perfect crispy cod and chips with a side of beans. Big shout out to all the friendly, hardworking staff on duty this evening including Dana and her hubby. Always a friendly welcome from all the lovely staff who work here.

Food lovely but very limited choice

The worst chippy I have ever eaten in. The fish was absolutely tasteless, chips completely bland & dry. Even my children age 6 & 8 said it was horrible and struggled to eat it. Tiny portion sizes on the chips . Completely over priced and will never return. Wish I had of read reviews before I came! Only nice thing was the Pepsi because it was made by Pepsi! Lady was polite and friendly £56 for 2 small children and 3 adults. One Childs shared an adults meal !

We have had fish and chips from here many times. We have drooled about having them. We normally have to queue but don't mind because we know they are freshly done and so piping hot. Not today they were sat waiting for us. Very disappointed

Had the take away option of cod and chips. A bit pricey at £12.75 but then where isn’t these days! The service was quick despite it being fairly busy. Lovely white fish and the batter was crispy. The chips were an improvement on the last time I had them. Everything was nice and hot.

I think £12.75 for take away fish and chips is extortionate. I think they charge the same to eat in. Worst cod I've ever tasted. Bland. On the plus side good portion served piping hot. But would not recommend the tasteless cod.

Best fish and chips for miles around , AND right on the quayside too .

Paid £41.00 for 3 cod & chips & 1 sausage , the batter was very watery & soggy the chips very greasy , Overall the meal very disappointing .

Went to get some chips to go with steaks we were cooking in our little holiday flat. When I got them back they were very over cooked all wrinkled and not very warm. We were only a stone throw from the restaurant so it wasn’t like they had time to get cold. Disappointing not cheap but my husband said the curry sauce was very good.

Not impressed with the quality of the food. We arrived just after opening time at midday. We ordered at the counter and instantly our 3 cod and chips arrived. The food definitely did not taste freshly cooked, the fish and batter were very dry and also the chips tasted as if they had been reheated.

Very poor selection available, just cod, speedy service but very expensive for whatbyou get, there didn't seem to be any care about the fodd or the customer really. Such a shame for such a prime location, they do well with tourists but dont seem interested in repeat business.

Probably the worst fish and chips ive ever had very slow service very over priced chips like rubber fish dry as a bone never again rubbish

We did the mistake of visiting at 12 on opening time and were dished up reheated chips from the day before! This wasn’t realised until we noticed fresh chips being dished on adjacent table 20 minutes later. Old chips were grim. Very disappointing!

Lovely fish and chips, well deserved after a 4 mile hike around the coastline 😋😋😋

Disappointing….. Was expecting the classic ‘by the sea ‘ chip shop experience. Poor chips ( tasted like they had been standing a while ) and 2 slightly pale looking soggy cod fillets. First time we have had a drink out of a child’s carton for a long time. Staff were ok so can’t fault them… just the food.

Decided to have at least one fish and chip meal while visiting the sea side in Saundersfoot. What a treat, the staff were friendly, welcoming and couldn’t be more helpful with our menu choices. We all three had fish and chips with curry sauce, mushy peas, a cup of tea and a Pepsi. The batter was a thin beer battered cod cooked to perfection, not soggy or too thick to hold the oil. The chips were cooked in a lighter colour to what I was used to but they were cooked lovely and tasted so nice. Portion sizes were good being too much for mum but enough for the wife and I, leaving us full Definitely worth a visit….we will return

Great fish and chips and our four meals arrived literally within three minutes.

Staff are pleasant,it is very busy there,did not have to wait for long ,we had cod and chips for £12.50,the fish was lovely too big for me,the chips was a bit dry but overall we enjoyed the meal.

Been here a couple of times when visiting Saundersfoot. Always busy but with good service. Staff are lovely, food is great and you can either dine in or takeaway.

Food was nice but disappointing as nothing is Gluten free (Coeliac) so one of our group could not eat here

Really pleased with our Fish and Chips. A huge piece of Cod, fresh crisp batter and decent chips. Much better than the ‘famous’ Whitby Fish and Chips we had the week before.

Foods okay, wouldn’t hurt the staff to smile, atmosphere would be much better if the customer service was improved.

The queue for this restaurant/take away were long so we thought it would be great. To be honest we were disappointed. Whilst we were served quickly the chips were underdone and the fish greasy and tasteless. Very disappointing considering it was nearly £30 for two. Toilets also in a horrible position and difficult to navigate the steep stairs.
