I read a few reviews that this fish and chips takeaway was halal which was essential for us.There were 14 of us so it needed to be tasty and boy was it!The batter was seasoned well and crispy, the chips were so fluffy 14 happy people and we will def be coming here next time we are in the area!

We had previously booked for a roast at another establishment and after arriving we were told that they had run out of roasts. After trying to find alternatives we cut our losses and headed down to the sea front to grab some fish and chips. A quick search on TripAdvisor pointed us to O'Shea's - after queing for five minutes we were informed that they pretty much only had chips left. Would we ever get fed? My girlfriend had noticed another chippy (Sea View Fish Bar) on the walk and led us on our next voyage to be fed. As she led the way I had a quick search of the place and was met with bad reviews of the place. I debated pulling her away, but you haven't met her when she is hangry. A number of other customers had also headed here from O'Shea's for their fish fix. Customer service was good and the food even better. Our fish was covered in a golden crispy batter and the chips were of a good quality. I don't usually leave reviews but felt it was important as our experience here was an enjoyable one.

Absolutely shocking behaviour and poor customer service. It was a very busy Saturday afternoon so the staff should expect to see and hear children in the presence of adults. A member of the staff actually shouted across the shop at a toddler "sssshhh". The mother actually had hold of the child and was trying to discourage his volume so there is no need to shout at customers. If children are not welcome this should be clearly displayed!!!!

Popped in for some food for the family whilst in Barry. Chips were fine, However, the Savaloy Sausage and Chicken & Mushroom were barely luke warm.Went back, they said they would put sausage in the microwave...err..no thanks. Re heated the pie and sent us on our way...had to ask for a refund for the sausage even though we never had it in the end.Overall a poor experience...Will never visit here again...which is a shame as we are regulars to Barry throughout the year.

Although the chips were nice, it did make me laugh that we are all queuing 2 metres apart, but then on the way out you have to self service your own salt and vinegar! How many people are touching them without hand sanitising first!!! The staff should be doing this for you when your food is ready!

Lovely food after a day on the beach, we sat outside to eat, the fish was gorgeous and the chips were very nice too. Served quickly and only few minutes wait for our order.

Queued for half an hour to be served - then an extra 20 minutes to actually receive our order! We understand it was very busy, but it’s no excuse to serve barley cooked chips and cold savaloy!! Maybe in future, put a wait on food or stop taking orders until you catch up!! Not impressed and will definitely not be returning! Sort it out

Surprised at the reviews, perhaps the Sea View has new owners but we had fish and chips there today and it was excellent. Fresh hot and very tasty.

stopped in here to get pie and chips to eat on the beach,did not have to wait long to get served and the meal was very nice. best thing about it was it only cost £4 which is very good for a seafront property. plenty of seating on the outside and inside for to to eat.

Stopped by for fish and chips. Not sure it warrants all of the previous poor reviews. Fish was fresh and tasty, chips were nice. Reasonable portion sizes at a standard price. Seating available outside and I didn’t have to wait long. I’d happily eat here again next time I visit Barry

The WORST chip shop we have ever had the misfortune of eating from.We visited 9.8.18, they were close to closing which wasn't a problem as we just wanted simple sausage and chips. Everything was such a chore for the member of staff that served us.I was presented my food in 2 trays which wouldn't close, how she expected me to carry these by myself is beyond me, I had to request to have them wrapped and put in a bag, I got the impression this was an unreasonable request. We had ordered sausage in batter and chips twice. The sausage is without a doubt the worst I have ever tasted! In no way did it eben resemble a sausage, the small the taste the look, everything was disgusting, I took a bite and had no option but to discard it, it simply wasn't edible. It made me feel physically sick! I told my partner not to even attempt it.Had we not been so hungry the whole lot would have gone in the bin!Had I known what I know bow I would not have proceeded with the order but we were both hungry and it was l

Manager was real rude and just seemed like he didn’t want to be there at all - or even serving customers. Also had 3 complaints in the 30 minutes we were there from other customers. One lady said they didn’t bring out one of their orders and another said they completely forgot about theirs. No sauce available at all, just salt and vinegar ??? #appaling Chips are mediocre + the burger was mank also large chips was tiny, and the prices overall were wayyyy too high considering what you got. Could overhear an employee complaining how she hasn’t got her break yet and swearing at her boss, that was funny. Only good things are they have cold drinks.

This is opposite the promenade next to the Fun Fair. It doesn’t look much from outside and isn’t any better on the inside, but the other Fish and Chip Shop that we know is good along on the beach front had run out of fish, so having looked forward to F&C we were searching for another. They are ‘awaiting’ their mandatory (in Wales) Food Hygiene certificate. If they want to get any decent rating they’ll need to clean up their act – the counter had discarded chips and salt scattered about it, whilst the staff stood by idly waiting for the chips to cook. Unfortunately, they were a bit quicker taking our order and money, so were committed by this time. The fish although cooked to order didn’t taste that fresh and the chips were just ordinary. So I don’t think I’ll be returning. There are better options in the vicinity.

Surprised at some of the negative reviews. Have eaten here a number of times lately ( lunches ) and have always received excellent service. Always been made welcome , drinks served promptly and any queries about the food promptly answered or explained. The food has always been well cooked and well presented. Special mention for their Prawn and Chorizo Linguine, one of the tastiest I have eaten, our party will certainly keep returning. Lovely home brewed pint available. Well done to all the staff.

Good atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff. The food wasn't the best sizzler I've had but not entirely the worst neither. Took a while to come out. The fish and chips was the best out of the meals we had.

What a terrible experience from start to finish! Firstly we ordered drinks that sat on the bar getting warm for 20min before being served to us! We ordered food which took ages to come 50 min to be exact and it wasn’t busy! Two meals were served then we waited another 10 min for the other two meals to be served. The presentation of the food is awful it comes and doesn’t look at all appealing. Asked for mayo, ketchup and vinegar 10 min later we were still waiting and had to ask again. Southern fried chick burger was almost burnt so overcooked the chicken was dry! Steak and ale pie pastry do hard it was difficult to cut. Very tasteless and gravy like water. Fries were frozen bag fries that looked anemic and were soft and soggy. We weren’t asked at all if we wanted more drinks! Ordered side of 8 onion rings were served 3. Would I eat here again NEVER! Don’t listen to the good reviews this place is terrible both service and food!

Fantastic spot overlooking the sea. I have been coming here for 24 years. Wonderful homemade cakes. Vegan sausage rolls made with vegetables and lentils. Great staff, good strong coffee. A Llantwit Major institution.
