Pendre Cafe in Ceredigion

Amazing fish and chips at a reasonable price. We went there twice for takeaway.

Excellent food and quite cheap. All the staff were lovely

Best fish and chips we have had in the UK

Absolutely delicious fish and chips

Excellent fish and chip shop with seating inside. Great food and lovely staff. Try the cooked breakfast!

Best chips I have tasted for a long time and red hot, will xall in again

Excellent service, the chap behind the counter could not be any more welcoming and helpful. The fish was excellent 10/10, the chips not so much but still good 7/10. Would certainly come back if I was in the area.

Absolutely brilliant food. Staff were friendly & helpful. Will definitely return. Can't recommend it too highly.

Best chips i have had in a long time. Had a lovely cheeseburger as well. Excellent chip shop etc.

Consistently nice chips and haddock, staff are always friendly.

first time there sunday 1st sept staff excellent had fish n chips cooked beautifuly thank you

Lovely. Had ordered some coffees, very good quality although a little weak in coffee flavour, but have to cater for the masses. Some Italian music to set the scene and hay presto in Sicily. One comment when serving customers please put your mobile phones down and interact, make eye contact with the customers, it's really very rude.

Lovely food. Lovely staff. Lovely place.

Tried all the local fish and chip shops in the area. This is the only one that does haddock and the chips and curry sauce are great. Batter on fish always crisp. We usually phone ahead and order so always freshly cooked. Great value compared to fish and chips in the London area. Staff very friendly.

Super fresh and yummy fish and chips!

Welcomed and served quickly, friendly staff. We had takeaway fish and chips and sausages for the children. Reasonable priced. Food was served quick, it was hot, tasted great. Batter was crispy and not too greasy. I would go again

Nice cheesy chips with batted sausage picked them up and drove to this nearby beach and ate them there delicious 😋

This is the best fish and chips ever I had

Staff were very friendly but that's where the good stuff ends,we had fish was mostly batter and very small with skin still on it 😔 the chips were awful as if they had been cooked in dirty oil,will not be returning which is a shame as we visit cardigan frequently

A proper pearl has been discovered. Great food, awesome service. Just a pity I can't give them 10 stars. I will certainly be back!

Bought haddock and chips from here today, like the most recent photos, the batter was almost brown, no idea when it was cooked, but it wasn’t fresh. Reheated chips and the fish was dripping in oil. I had a few mouthfuls and the rest went in the bin. The worst fish and chips I have had in the area. Try the Lime Crab in New Quay or the New Celtic in Aberaeron, both sell lovely fresh fish, nothing like this rubbish.

Crest choice of gluten free options staff very friendly and knowledgeable excellent customer service

Nice lunch&latte.Always great service here. We always come whenever were in town.

Had takeaway cod and chips..cod still had the skin on :(( and there was more batter than cod Asked for large chips but were more like a small portion and costly at £3.90! Not a place I would buy from In the future

Just visiting from a place in the UK which is as far from any coast as possible, so why is it locally, the quality of fish and chips is better than a coastal town where you would expect high standards? Very disappointed in the quality, freshness and portion size for the money.

Rough and ready. Waiter verged on rudeness. Only toilets for staff and when asked about them he lied and said they were being used by a pregnant lady - she would have had to go past us to get to them and she didn’t! Toilets he pointed us to in town were either closed or cost £1 and were a good walk away and we were strangers to Cardigan. Suffice to say we didn’t stay to spend any more money in the town. Very disappointed.

Service with a smile, could not fault food , prices or service

2 years running we have gone to these guys. Not only are they good. But... The service is amazing. These guys will go out of there way. Above and beyond. I'll go to these guys for years too come

£22 for fish and chips x2 is about the going rate these days. Good size portion of chips, fish not that big. Not really sure what the fish was covered in or cooked in, but it wasn't batter as we know it? Maybe the oil is old or chef isn't that good for making batter. Overall it was edible but there are probably better eateries in town.

The dining area was closed when we reach only takeaway was available , food was OK

Ordered and received 2x cod & chips, 1x plaice & chips, 3 cups of tea. All received in a timely manner, well-cooked fresh fish. Real chips. During our time there, there was a steady stream of customers all being served without waiting too long. Friendly & pleasant service throughout, highly recommend a visit when in the area.

Hopefully this fish was hours old, it possibly could have been days old or even weeks old may e years old which ever it had no right being for sale! As it was a takeaway we were home before we discovered the battered item which was once Cod. The chips were of the same generation and not even the curry sauce could revive them - what are you doing serving this!

Just how a fish and chip shop and cafe should be. Tasty food and quick service, friendly and helpful. A nice cafe La Fontana adjoining the fish and chip shop to the right run by the same family, with the same helpful, friendly service.

Ordered place and chips when it arrived the fish was swimming in oil had not been drained apart from that taste was good

Nice people, tasty food. Gluten free chips available.

Without a doubt the crappiest place I have ever been to. We ordered a veggie burger and they brought us the burger with four pieces of onion and bread. Nothing else. Not a measly slice of lettuce or tomato. A tease. The potatoes taste like fish from having fried everything together. They didn't give us even a packet of ketchup or mayonnaise to put on them. Incredibly poor food. I needed to go to the bathroom and they told me they had it closed. Amazing.

Absolutely love the fish and chips from here. Will always pay a visit whenever we are in the area.

Absolutely disgusting food. Chips were hard as nails and soaked in oil! The fish was not in batter, a really weird texture, soaked in oil. Visited the area for the weekend. Very disappointed and stay away!

This was a delightful surprise! We got fish and chips takeaway from Pendre on a Saturday evening while visiting Cardigan. It was some of the best we’ve had in a while — fresh, flavorful, not too greasy. Very nice staff as well. Highly recommend!

Ordered cod chips and mushy peas,service was extremely quick, tasted lovely

Amazing food as usual. Thankyou very much 😊

Lovely food Lovely people so warm.and friendly thank you

Good cup of coffee and a child's size fish and chips with a rather good curry sauce...dined in staff very helpful and friendly 👌

Very pleasant establishment to pop in for a hot drink and a bite to eat

I lived in the south coast for many years and had some of the best fish and chips around. I’ve tried most of the others around this area, but I have to say this is probably up there with the best. Clean, tidy, friendly and the food is second to none. 5 ⭐️

We came here looking to eat fish and also chips, fair to say we left satisfied

Disappointed today with our Cod and Chips , Very Greasy and not sure if the Chips were re heated as they were dripping and full of oil , this has happened now on our last 2 visits , we did say before we wouldn't be going there again but we did , Our Mistake .

Great food, excellent coffee, even better service. The staff are amazing. Nothing more to say really.

Best fish and chips in Cardigan would definitely recommend

Food very greasy and hard. Water down curry sauce.. Expensive with what we got. The chips seem to be re heated

Fastest service ever, we were amazed by this and something the staff pride themselves on. Food was great, highly recommend this place

Excellent, probably the best fish and chips I’ve had in a long time, staff really friendly and helpful, food was spot on👍

Had a late lunch with the family today and it was fantastic. Very welcoming and clean. Prices were very reasonable and the food was delicious. Definitely visiting again and will recommend it to anyone.

Lovely chips, great value and great service. Thank you!

Had 2 fish and chips last night. We always call after visiting cardigan. Havr done for years. It's always been lovely food but last night The fish was tiny was more batter than fish the chips were crispy and hard, the curry sauce was dry and lumpy it was very disappointing.

Popped in for some dinner after a long journey. Staff ever so friendly and helpful. Food served promptly. Great with the family too. Would go again!

Best fish and chips since my childhood 😋 Lovely friendly staff. Clearly very popular and for good reason

We have eaten here many times on our visits to cardigan and one thing is for sure you always get a warm welcome. We stopped for dinner last night before a trip to the cinema, 5* service they even went out of their way to cook fresh onion rings rather than frozen premade which was amazing. We had haddock n chips, cod n chips and a kids nuggets meal plus onion rings, food was lovely fresh, hot and the right amount of batter and not greasy at all. We ate in and its been decorated well, nice touch with all the florals mixed with seaside theme. Thank you for another great meal 😋 sorry forgot to take photos as we just dived in.

Very expensive for a small piece of Haddock, average chips and a tiny pot of curry sauce. Fish small but ok, chips average at best. Friendly service is the best point!

Best chips I've ever eaten, hands down.

Lovely Chips and the best gravy in the village. The food was quick to make and the sausage satisfied my hunger needs. The staff were polite and just exquisite.

🤩 This family run business has a lovely atmosphere and GREAT Coffee and pastries!! ☕🥐

Great choice, decent portions. , Eat in, outside or take away offered. Grilled fish for coeliacs

Very friendly service, delicious food, absolutely great!

We arrived here at 8pm on a Wednesday, everywhere was either closed or take away only. We came across this fish and chip shop and the manager put out tables and chair for us as the restaurant section was closed, bought us food out and couldn't be more accommodating. Food was beautiful and great sized too!

Amazingly quick, efficient and polite service! Big order for family was no problem and ready in a matter of minutes. All tasty and piping hot. An excellent chippie!

Great value with brilliant tasting chips! Fast and welcoming

Very nice fish and chips good portion size would recommend

We were searching for fish and chips whilst on holiday, came across this place, staff very friendly, food delicious - hot, the fish was fresh & cooked perfectly, crispy batter and chips were pretty good too, very pleased, and hoping to go back before my holiday ends

Hands down best chip shop in Wales.

Best fish and chips shop in the whole of Wales, perfectly crisp chips, delicious cod and amazing staff!

If you're ever in cardigan then try these out. They serve not only fish and chips but a fair choice of meals which you can either eat in or takeaway. Well priced, friendly staff.

Best Steak and Kidney Pie I have tasted in a long while.... Friendly staff too. 😊

Quick service and delicious cod. Plus, open on Sundays when many other shops are closed. Staff was lovely as well.

I love this place it has amazing food and the staff are really nice and friendly people I definitely recommend this place

Amazing food. Fish and chips and a cheese burger were ordered for myself and my partner. I was able to order a child's sized portion for myself, which not only was heaps of food for me, but also really nice as a lot of places don't allow adults to order child's sized portions for themselves. Would definitely go again when next in the area

Popped in for a take away, excellent clean establishment, what impressed me the most was the staff were all suited and booted, all looked very dapper in their uniforms, and so friendly, cod and chips was very nice too, non greasy, highly recommend whilst visiting Cardigan

Came to get dinner takeaway. Popular chippy but I got my order in good time. Food was nice and not super oily, they also had small sausages not just the jumbo ones which was nice. Curry sauce was a little watery but still tasted good. Prices were also really good. Overall nice chippy would recommend.

Chips undercooked and curry sauce was watered down, didn't taste very nice. Don't know whether it was a one off or? The staff were friendly and it was clean. But their large size chips are medium sized and cost £6 for undercooked chips, watery curry sauce and a can of pop.

Great food and great service every time 👍

Nice friendly staff and food not greasy.

Alway find the same things when i use this place. Spotlessly clean. Staff are smartly dressed. Staff are friendly and polite. Food is cooked perfectly, presented properly. Price is very competitive compared to other establishments. I say this shop is "Consistently Good"

I'm sorry to have to inform you but this is the worse fish and chip take away I have experienced. My battered fish was so lacking in fish it looked like a flat pancake. It was so soggy and oily I felt sick after a couple of bites. This fish and chip shop has a thing or two to learn about standards. They could take some good advice from other good chippies such as Narberth and Whitland. Any visitors to Wales should note that this is not a good representation of what Wales can do with their chips, to avoid disappointment please go somewhere else. I regret spending my hard earned money on a poor excuse of fish and chips.

We called here and sat in the cafe which and were very happy with the place

We were passing and saw Pendre Cafe and popped in for some lunch.

DO NOT BUY FISH 'N' CHIPS from Pendre cafe chip shop!

Called in to the cafe last week for some chips. The chips were excellent. The staff there are very polite and friendly. It is well worth a visit when you are in cardigan.

Been in this neck of the woods all week. Often have fish and chips. This is the third time and by far the best. Others have been in locations where you would expect better. However this is the winner by a mile. Big piece of fish light batter and perfectly cooked accompanied by the right amount of good chips. On top of this very pleasant service. I will say again excellent.

Had a cracking day out with the family on a local beach, not wanting to cook on the return to our holiday cottage, fish and chips was the order of the day. Came across this place on our way home, quite a find. Maybe a little pricey but as they say, you get what you pay for. Biggest fish I've seen for a bit, cooked fresh, couldn't fault it. Mushy peas were nigh on perfect, just as I like them. Staff courteous and efficient. Well done. Impressed.

Not usually a huge fish and chip eater but this place has converted me. The staff are young, friendly and welcoming and the food is simply excellent: fish cooked while-you-wait and it's packed as you want: in a box or traditionally wrapped in paper.

Good fish, polite staff. Chips could be better as mine were crispy and old. The dining area is comfortable but not a place for a romantic dinner!

Visited this fish and chip shop last Saturday evening.We arrived late around 8.30pm and were greeted by the friendly young staff. We ordered cod & chips which was cooked fresh. The food was delicious and prepared without delay. It was good value for money and we found the staff to be really nice. This is the second visit in the last 2 weeks and the standard has been the same. Will be returning.

The food was good, the place was good, the service was good, the staff were good. What more would you want from a local fish and chip restaurant? Well worth a visit

Not sure why it says it's closed down, we certainly had fish and chips there... fish was average but the customer service was outstanding. Actually, more than outstanding, probably the best i have ever received, it's worth a visit only to experience this part. Honestly. I have visited many places around the world but they all should learn from the employees of this establishment.

Without doubt, the best fish and chips in West Wales... bar none. Excellent food, well cooked, in clean surroundings with the added bonus of friendly staff. Well worth the nineteen mile trip.

We went twice to this fish and chips to eat outside. The people were very friendly and the food good.

Went here for lunch in late October and ordered fish, chips and a cup of tea. The waitress asked if I wanted mushy peas and I thought she meant that these would normally come with the dish.The off-street door opens directly into the large dining room so that I felt quite cold on such a chilly day. I was thus quite pleased to get the warming cup of tea very quickly.

Have to say I went here based on reviews, the chips were very soggy and greasy.

We've been coming here for years! I've not found a better chippy and can't fault this place, friendly staff.
