We’ve visited Robs chippy for years and always enjoyed it. The fish has been big and lovely batter in the large fish and even the small fish has been crispy. Chips also lovely dry and fluffy. But omg last night was absolutely disgusting. We ordered 2 large fish & chips and 2 small fish & chips. Plus a few portions of curry sauce and some scraps. It was absolutely disgusting and it takes a lot for me to say that. The fish was soggy and no crispy batter on the large and both the small were like a midgy tiny soak in batter so felt more like a shallow fry fish nothing more. The cod had no flavour to it at all. The chips were mushy and sticking to each other. Half of them looked like a mass of mulch. Only appetising thing about this food was the curry sauce which we know is bought in big bags and they just add water. And the scraps. It doesn’t help when the owner comes in twice the size of a double decker bus with grease stains etc over his clothing. Staff had a couldn’t give a damn attitude and the card machine was out of order. I’m speaking for us nobody else. But on that meal we won’t be back again. Absolutely appalling. If I could give it a minus or a big fat “0” I would. Someone was saying the main fryer has left? How true that is I don’t know but never again. We will go into Rhyl from now on.

Just staying with friends in Belgrave Pensarn. We decided to do a chippy tea tonight and it didn’t disappoint. Smaller eaters had a small cod (ample size) and the bigger adults had large fish & large chips to share. We got 3 large tubs of fruity curry sauce and to finish off 2 boxes of gorgeous scraps. Absolutely lovely ordered and cooked fresh so everything was crispy and piping hot.

It's the first time for a couple of years and I was not disappointed. I had the £4.99 Fish'n'Chips SPECIAL OFFER. Tremendous value and good quality. The staff were pleasant and efficient. The Lady in charge said they'd been quieter because of the Tesco building works next door, hence the special offer. WELL DONE for carrying on.

long wait but that usually means you will get good results and we did. There were no large cod left by then so we got 5 small for the price of 3 large and that was perfect. Chips excellent. ate on the beach and then reheated a few more chips by skewering them over a fire we'd made to toast marshmallows. Yum. Mushy peas were watery but curry sauce was great.

Superb experience at Rob's Fish & Chips in Pensarn. There was a queue when we arrived (which we took as a good sign). The line moved quickly and the service was excellent from the staff. Food was fantastic, eaten looking out over the beach. Scallops and sausages were great and the chips - they may be the best we've ever had! And all this at a great price: plenty of food for 3 people for £18. If you're in the area, or happy to get off the train for an hour as we did, you can't go wrong.

Love fish and chips.... First time i have eaten from this chippy since the last visit in 1994! Tried tonight after the story in North Wales Live. I had, large fish, large chips and mushy peas.... wow! true british fish and chips.... tasted like my childhood. Food: was delicious, tasty and nice portion size. The plate on the picture is 12 inch x 12 inch.... my son had a chicken burger and some of my chips so as you can tell the chip portion was massive. Service: Female fryer who was pleasant, female server who was welcoming and chatty. Made you feel like a valued customer, smiling and thanked us and said goodbye enjoy! Venue: shop was clean and welcoming, everything was easily visable on the board behind the till, clearly showing options and prices. All in all i really enjoyed the food and polite, friendly staff goes a long way! will definitely be back!

Called in lunchtime for a small chips, ended up having small cod and chips , got to say they were delightful, the best I’ve had in ages, fish was small but that’s what I asked for, the price was only £5.20, shared it with my friend who was in the car, he also commented on how good they were, hope to be up there again on business will have the large cod and chips next time, thanks bloody delicious

Have used this chip shop for years whenever we’ve been in the area.Called last weekend and found it to be new owners since our last visit.There was a dramatic change in the quality of food,the fish was the thinnest slice of fish I’ve ever had.The batter was uncooked in the middle,all gooey. We also got a regular portion of chips instead of small for our grandsons to share.These were £2.70,and I dread to think what a small portion would be,the amount we had would not of even filled the smallest polystyrene tray.Ive always loved the gravy at Robs,full of flavour and a great consistency,this is now a pot of watery stuff that resembles an oxo cube mixed in water. We will not be buying anything from here again.

Read the reviews over rated food two trays of chips one small, curry sauce and jumbo sausage nearly £11 found out after we got charged extra for the trays and little wooden forks what were they expecting us to eat off the counter with our fingers and the Irish curry was more like an Indian curry thick enough it held the chips like mortar on bricks 50% went in the bin shocked the seagulls even turn them down

I thought I'd found a perfect chippy, that give you a bag of chips, with no poxy trays and I did. I had a bad experience one time, where I ordered fish and chips twice. When I got home and opened the fish it was absolutely caked in fat. It was that bad it was dripping from the paper. My wife and I were not happy and so I took them back and got a refund. Ps, the service is ultra slow!!

My wife and I had cod and chips each at lunch time. For some reason my wife’s regular cod was really tiny and you could literally count the chips as there were approximately a dozen of them. When I complained the man behind the counter laughed in my face. I was appalled and very annoyed. He just said he doesn’t own the shop and come back tomorrow when Mike and Jeanette who own the business would be in. We were just passing through so that wouldn’t be possible but if they’re as ignorant as he was couldn’t see the point anyway. David

Recently had large Cod & Chips and Curry Sauce. Large Cod terrible. Wafer thin and batter schewy and burnt. Chips overcooked and mostly inedible. Fruity Curry Sauce was actually nice. Service and price good. But they really need to improve the Cod. Better quality ingredients needed. I personally would pay more for a good fish. Very disappointed as used this Chippy for 25yrs. Been twice recently and very disappointed. I understand it's difficult for business to survive with costs rising. But my insole in my shoe would've made a better lunch treat! 🙃

As a local we've been visiting this Chippy occasionally for many years. We are however becoming more disappointed by the quality of the food. The prices are good as obviously people are shopping around for value for money with the crisis if living. But personally I would rather pay a bit more for better quality Fish (Cox) Chips and peas. Last two recent visits the large Cod is so thin it might as well not be their! The batter was over cooked and of a chewy consistency. The chips over cooked and chewy. Many of the chips inedible. The food quality has certainly gone down hill since the business makeover. Does Rob Parkin still own the business? Staff very friendly and helpful. Obviously hard working as is always busy without many local competitors nearby. I think maybe a bit more attention to quality ingredients may help. Seems virtually impossible to get a decent fish & chips from Rhyl to Abergele. Probably lost our valuable custom dye to poor quality food. Nevermind. Hopefully the owners can take a positive spin on reviews like this to help improve there well established business.

Went to Robs as it seemed to be the best reviewed in the area. The food did not disappoint. The fish and chips were bang on, curry sauce was delicious and all cooked fresh. Prices were surprisingly cheap for a seaside area, even lower than the costs in my home town. This was a shock I we had become accustomed to overpaying for subpar food all week in other places in the area. The gentleman behind the counter (Rob?) Heard we had a super fussy in our party, went out of his way to find out his name and gave him a free potato scallop or fritter in my area to test. This went down really with my son, giving another of very few options to eat and us for his kindness and help. I highly recommend anyone holidaying in the Towyn/ Abergele area to visit Rob's Fish and Chip Shop as you will not be disappointed

Best chips, worse service ever encountered in a chip shop. My husband refuses to go . To start the food is fabulous . The staff are fabulous the service is shocking. Qued & timed on my watch to ensure I was not exsagerating. 20 minutes and I had not moved 1 inch on the pavememt. Approx 10 people infront of me. It was 15 minutes before the first person came out. It was 40 minutes before I got to the door. Family of 4 inside had waited 1 hour for 2 x fish & chips & 2 kids meals. The girl serving lovely & pleasant however so slow. Wraps 1 piece of paper & then another. I watched at least 3 people walk out of the que. Honestly Rob's I dont know how you are making any money. 55 minutes the man in front of me waitex for 1 fish. The moral of this write up is unless you have 1 hour plus to wait for your tea dont bother. If you go up the road you will be in and out in 5 minutes.

Read the reviews saying how good it was, so decided to try it. Maybe I picked the wrong day or was just unlucky. The fish was cooked whilst I waited, which I was happy with and the lady serving was very nice and polite. However, the fish was very greasy, was quite a thin piece of fish and some chips were inedible, as they were too hard. Shame really, as I was hoping for good things. Probably would try it once more though, just to give them a fair chance.

Worst fish and chips I’ve had for a long time, fish was dried up and small, the batter was the best thing, chips were like warm ups, no taste and soggy, typically don't care, the customer won’t be back, and that’s correct
