Sea View Fish Bar in The Vale of Glamorgan

We initially walked past as we had been told that the fish bar down on the sea front was the best. However, after queing for 10 mins and seeing several orders messed up and a workforce in complete disarray and berating each other in front of the customers.... we left the queue and headed back to Sea View. We made the right choice, the chips are perfect and the curry sauce is amazing. Portion sizes are good and costs are good for the current climate. I'll be back soon

There are many fish and chip places in Barry. This is a little up the hill and was less busy. The server was very friendly and was courteous and the queue went along quickly. £12.95 for fish and chips and curry sauce and can of coke not a problem. Batter was a tad too greasy and the chips a little squidgy but nothing terrible. The batter was a little thick and the fish was therefore not as big as expected. However, we shared one portion between two and it was fine. Would I rush back. Possibly not, only because I like to try other places but I would visit again as nothing was terrible, just not fabulous.

Great food and fast service. Good value for money. The man serving was so happy and friendly. Chips were lush!

Had mince beef pie it was disgusting 😫 we all nearly spewed never . Never go back or recommend 😡😡😡

This chip shop was horrible the little lady struggled to understand English the food was cold and tasteless will never go back

Food was ok but the portion sizes are tiny Fish portion was extremely small Chip portion tiny Mushy pea pot tiny At over £8:00 completely felt robbed Did not complain but will avoid when next in barry

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.

Terrible customer service was told to go elsewhere as I asked why so few chips Way overpriced Not worth the que

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!

Food was OKAY. Customer service was almost OKAY Queue didn't allow for proper social distancing Overall a below average experience. Don't recommoned going here if you visit Barry island.

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.

The worst customer service I have ever experienced!Run out salad,ketchup...Ask for any other sauce with the chips!Womens’ answered behind the counter:Is not my problem is it?Also is a £1 if you want anything!Let me wait until serve the whole que!Hygine is a double zero!

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.
