The Penylan Fish Bar is a hidden gem for takeaway seafood. Each visit guarantees freshly fried fish with a perfect golden crust, encasing deliciously flaky meat inside. Their chips are a standout, striking that ideal balance between crispy and fluffy. Despite being a busy spot, their service is quick and friendly, making every order feel personal. It's the quality and consistency that make Penylan Fish Bar a must-visit for anyone craving top-notch fish and chips on the go.

Highly reccomend the fish and chips from here! Fish is big and fresh. I like how the batter is not too thick or floury. Chips are solid too, especially with the curry sauce. The staff were really friendly and even gave us a big bottle of pepsi on the house!

We ordered quite a large order (over 30 people) and asked for delivery. The staff were absolutely excellent and catered to everything we asked for. They brought the food to the door, it was hot and they had labelled all the orders. They went the extra mile and gave us forks and lemons which was really handy. They even came back with extra curry sauce. Thank you so much again, we can’t wait to order from them every year!

Visiting the area for a convention. Popped into the chippy the day before as we knew we had a big order (7 adults and a child). Was advised to phone on the way with our order, which I did. Got there, found parking very easy. The food was being packed as I entered the shop. Paying was easy and even had a free bottle of lemonade. Staff were all smiling. Each of the family enjoyed the food. Portions were generous and would certainly recommend to visitors and locals.

Legends of the Fish & Chip world. We don't use them regularly, but it's great that they remain there, serving quick, hot, tasty and good value food - somewhere you can rely on whilst everything else changes. We usually just order fish and chips, but its because the chips are fluffy and delicious and the fish is cooked fresh. No fussing, no gimmicks.

Owner asked whether I’d write a review when I’d eaten my meal - I said only if I liked it. Only the second time I’ve had a takeaway in over 10 years. The last time I had fish and chips was okay but decided it wasn’t for me but cod and chips I ate tonight might have turned me. My daughter agrees that the fish was excellent, as was the batter and the chips were great. Would buy again!

I recently visited the best fish and chip shop in Cardiff and I have to say, I was blown away by the quality of the food and the service. The fish was perfectly cooked, with a crispy batter and flaky, tender meat. The chips were also excellent - hot, crispy, and just the right amount of salt. But what really stood out to me was the attention to detail and care that the staff put into each order. They were friendly and attentive, taking the time to ensure that each customer received their order just the way they wanted it. The shop itself was clean and welcoming, with a cozy atmosphere that made me feel right at home. And the prices were very reasonable for the high quality of the food and service. Overall, I would highly recommend this fish and chip shop to anyone in Cardiff looking for a delicious, satisfying meal. It truly is the best fish and chip shop in town!

However thanks to the guys in the fish bar, they re-made our food for us without charge. Just proves that there are still some amazing people in this world. A massive thank you from myself and my wife for your kindness. PS the fish was amazing!!!!!

Wonderful large portion of hake. Perfectly freshly fried to perfection. Excellent thin and crispy batter. Generous portion of chips. They were pretty good, but we're not as hot as I would have liked them. As the fish is cooked to order, which obviously takes a little time, I don't know why they couldn't make fresh chips. The guy that took the order was miserable and quite surly.

Youngers Fish Barlocation-icon73 Caerphilly roadSeafood

We wanted to try this place to see what it was like. Positives: Cod was excellent and batter very light.Unfortunately there are more negatives than positives:Price was extortionate: 2 small cod, large chips (which was actually very stingie portion), large sausage in and batter and small curry sauce came to a staggering £16.90 which is way too expensive!The small (large portion) of chips we soggy and undercooked. Some still were crunchy raw. This is a basic for a chippy!You charged 10p for a paper bag that I didn't want as I brought my own reusable bag. It's not the 10p, more the sustainability of giving out all that waste unnecessarily. Suggestion: Ask your customers 1st if they have their own reusable bags before just charging them for something that creates unwanted extra waste and cost.The booking system isn't fair on people turning up without booking theirs 1st. The wait is too long.Unfortunately Youngers you fell short because of your high prices and soggy, uncooked chips.There are better chippies in Cardiff so I'll be going back to my trusted favourite and won't bother with you again.A shame as I've just moved close to Youngers and thought you would become my local chippy.
