The Golden Fry in Isle of Anglesey

Perfect pisgod a sglodion, no grease, a perfect sized portion too, so no wasted chips. It can get busy so be prepared to wait a little. It's worth it as it's freshly cooked. The curry sauce is particularly fine too Sorry there are no photos I couldn't wait to start on them.

This just has to be the best fish & chippy in Anglesey! Food is always freshly cooked & tastes amazing. Would highly recommend

This place is resting on its Laurels. Its cheaper to eat at the Ivy to be frank- i wouldnt mind paying the price if the quantity and quality was ample… K lee would spinning in her grave. Totally overpriced. Greeted by a miserable teen who worked like a snail. I will not return. The greed of the owner- i hope you’re reading this Sir… i’m gonna have to forfeit me cigs for the rest of the week.

I ordered the haddock meal with curry sauce with trepidation, and only because I didn't see any other sauces I thought I would enjoy with the fish. I was very pleasantly surprised at how well the sauce paired with the fish and also with the chips. The food overall was not spectacular but certainly more than acceptable for a quick-serve restaurant.

The best fish and chips I have ever had. The fact it was gluten free made it all the more remarkable. Incredible quality. We also had a gluten free battered sausage, gravy, and curry. Everything was the best we’ve ever had. Cannot recommend this place enough.

We were visiting the area for the day and wanted fish and chips on the beach. Our daughter is gluten free so eating out is always a challenge. Not here! Everything bar a couple of pies were gluten free, even the complimentary sweets. It was a delicious piece of fish and lovely chips, all of us really enjoyed our lunch, especially our daughter, who was pleased again to get choice and quality. Thank you so much for having such an extensive menu - we wish more would follow suit. Highly recommend for all, especially fellow Coeliac’s!

Best fish and chips of the week. Reasonable prices, speedy service, friendly staff. And the best view whilst waiting. Yummy cheesecake too.

Great options for anyone who is gluten free. We pre-ordered our food online and used a separate pre-order entrance. We received our order quickly despite it being busy. We really enjoyed our food and we would definitely visit again. Thank you.

Amazing chippy especially being coeliac as there are lots of gluten free choices which is a rare and exciting find. Curry sauce is delicious! Prices are on the higher side but worth paying

I had the small cod box deal rather than the regular and it was plenty for me. I found this reasonably priced and the fish was delicious, as was the gravy. Very happy with this.

Awful chips, dry and definitely re- cooked. Waiting time was ridiculous as there were only 2 others before us and it was quiet but still had to wait 20 minutes for 1 portion of chips and 3 potato scallops! Only went as it had best reviews in area but it was really bad.

We had 2 kids meals of sausage and chips , the child's portion of chips was literally 9 chips and some scrap bits. With a Std size sausage that wasn't the best quality. Chips tasted nice though. They had a tub of gravy between them which was quite gloopy. I had an adult sausage and chips which in most places was the size you would expect a child's portion to be . Again the sausage was not of good quality and the chips were tasty but such a small portion. This came to just under £18 so I expected better from an award winning chippy. £1.85 for a std size sausage is crazy! Overall the food is ok but prices and portion sizes desperately need adjusting!

So good we came again the next day to try different options ! Amazing space when you are gluten free / coeliac. So much choice. Good system where get a number and get called. I did try to pre order but wouldn't accept my card but no issue inside and quick order. Helpful staff. Double yellows outside but car park close or we found a space further up. Drove down to beach once got chips so they were still hot - it's walkable but maybe 5/10min down a hill and we just wanted to eat ! Food delicious and friendly staff. Yum!

We pre ordered our fish and chips. Haddock was good not the biggest portion but all the same it was tasty. Let down for us was the chips, just a bit under cooked not very crispy. I would try here again as although the chips weren’t the best it was still a tasty meal!

Quality fish and chip shop, the cod was brilliant also quite a small portion, very busy with a queue way out the door, so be prepared to wait a little while. Very much enjoyed!

Ordered two fish, regular chips, and large chips. Fish was nice, but the chips were awful. Dry and some undercooked, and the large chips was not large as we planned to share between three but there was hardly enough for two to share. Cost £20, very over priced, especially for the quality.

Last few visits we've noticed a drop in quality. Portions were very small, I'd hate to see what a small fish and chips looks like because the regular was tiny. For £10+ this is disappointing. Spicy curry is lacking. Chips seemed a bit hard. On the plus side, the fish is always lovely and staff are great. Hope to see some improvements in the near future because this is one of our favourite takeaways.

I really hope the manager accepts this review in good faith as it is coming from a good place. Finneys Benllech has been my favourite chippy for some years now. Unfortunately things have gone downhill. The last three chippy dinners have been inedible and gone straight in the bin. Inconsistent chips, some raw in the centre, others dry and we thought they were reheated. Fish cold and dry, very over cooked. The spicy curry, where has the old recipe gone? It was a watery, tasteless liquid and the peas were a grey mush, again tasteless. A previous visit I tried a battered sausage, again binned as dry, cold and hard. This deterioration is a real shame because it was once awesome. Who is cooking and who is checking the produce before it goes out? Now I can see there are many excellent reviews so I may have just been unlucky on three separate occasions. I won’t be returning for a while at least and hopefully Finneys Benllech will get its mojo back. I know the temptation is to leave a defensive response on here, a wise manager would start listening to the customers.

When you really need a place to be gluten free and they Profess to be so! Last couple of times. No gluten free burgers, no gluten free bread. No pies etc. This time, I was even more un easy as normally they write gluten free on the chicken boxes etc! Not today! Quite worried! Such a shame! Not cheap and we eat here at least once a month!

We have been coming here for years on our annual holidays & extremely satisfied. However on our visit yesterday, I couldn't believe how much this has gone downhill, in terms of food, gluten free selection & service. All the chips for the 4 of us were thrown away - worst I have ever tasted. It used to be all gluten free but mixed now, which made selection (fewer items available) & sharing difficult as 2 of us are gluten free. Staff need to know the difference between chicken breasts & thighs. Ordered chicken breast & chips (£9.10) which turned out to be a thigh full of bones. I definitely wouldn't visit again now.

We’d seen that they were up for awards so decided to check it out. Great place with a little shelter outside so you can hide from the elements. You can see the beach & coastline. Fish, chips & mushy peas- perfect, light batter, well cut chips perfectly fried. Yes, we rated it!

We visited here 3 times just before Christmas last year. Parked next door in Tescos & ordered on the fancy touch screen. Cod & chips twice the a portion of curry & a portion of mushy peas. No issues, all great, plenty of taste, portions big enough, food was hot. Staff were all pleasant. All of the paper /cardboard went on the hot-tub fire. Fully recommended.

We were recommended Finney's having spoken with a number of people whilst staying in the area. I drove a short distance to collect a take away to eat back at our cottage. When I got back, 3 peas and a curry sauce were missing !! My own fault for not checking perhaps. The biggest disappointment was the portion sizes. I ordered a large chips (£4.10) to share between 3 of us. It was a portion for 1 person at most. Maybe this was another mistake and they'd given me a standard size. I don't know. The fish was also very small in my opinion. If it wasn't for these misdemeanours it could have been a 5* review as once I finally got to enjoy the food after going back for the missed items it was all so so tasty, especially the fish and the curry. It was a Saturday night but they certainly weren't overrun. If the staff could be more attentive and the portions a little less stingy then this could be a great eaterie.

Called in, 2nd time of visiting andnot disappointed. Had 2 fish meals, fish quality excellent, nicely cooked and tasty. The peas were nice, felt the curry sauce was a bit watery but in fairness the meals in all were excellent, definitely will be back, shame about parking

This little diamond of a chippy and its sister in Almwch are our firm favourites. As almost all of the food ( except the pies) is either gluten free or cooked using gluten free batter we know we are safe here. It never disappoints, yes there is often a bit of a wait especially at the height of the summer season but it is well, well worth it. Food tastes great is all freshly prepared and is always piping hot. In a cool bag ( with a slightly warmed gel pack )the meals stayed piping hot for a 20 minute drive back to Llangefni and still tasted as good as they do sat down by the beach at Benllech. They do great cheesecakes for pud too!!

Was recommended to come here & was looking forward to it but it was the worse meal we have had in a long time. Arrived around 8.00pm & ordered fish & chips & halloumi & chips. A two minute drive to where we were staying...

Best gluten free fish and chips I've ever had. I'm coeliac and it's difficult to eat out. This was a delicious experience. Thank you so much for the attention to your batter recipe.

Went because it got a good name and good reviews, As a vegetarian went for the vege menu and salad. So disappointed when I got my salad. The salad I got looked like somebody had already eaten it and I got the remains. Leave it...

Great place for G.F. food.My sister has a wheat intolerance,so therefore it is hard to find take away food she can eat.The customer service is superb,very knowledgeable staff.

Fantastic fish and chips , a little wait as it was so busy but great service polite staff thanks Finn!

After being diagnosed celiac at the start of the year I can't tell you how delighted I was to find this fish and chip shop. Not only was there a fantastic gluten free menu but it was delicious! It was busy (which is always a...

We’ve been ordering fish & chips from Finneys @The Golden Fry for years and they’ve never disappointed! Fish is lovely & fresh with crispy batter, great chips and the best mushy peas ever.

This place never fails to make me smile. They have the most amazing food, staff and service. Their gluten free offerings are outstanding and I feel super safe eating there every year when we holiday in Benllech.

Best Fish and Chips in Benllech. Ordered online to get a timeslot easy to navigate menu. Tip- its cheaper if you order the meal box rather than separate items. Turn up at the premises at your allotted time and avoid the queues .

Pre booked on the website for a family group of 13, 8 adults and 5 children. We arrived at the given time slot through the ‘pick up door’ were asked our name, paid and were on our way within 5 minutes. We ordered a selection...

First meal of our holiday,too tired to cook and the pubs looked busy so we plumped for takeaway and fish and chips.People were queuing out of the door,so we decided to run a few errands and then return.One problem is the lack of parking,so if...

Lovely food. Highly recommended. Beware, long queues as is very popular. Can go online and order in advance

Lekkere fish and chips, niet vet en lekkere knapperige vis. Snelle service en aardig personeel maakt dit een echte aanrader...

Excellent fish and chips. Great service and great staff. A busy shop, but that’s because you are getting lovely products. Highly recommend

I ordered the Finney Southern fried chicken thighs with the SF Gravy using the app for the first time to collect.Usually I fully enjoy the meal, but this time I was served the normal Gravy.Totally spoiled my meal.To late to contact them.Your staff need to be more tuned into orders.Very disappointed

We ordered for 5 adults. Lovely fish and chips. Not fatty or oily. Just lovely. There was a long queue but it was well worth the wait. We also tried the BBQ chicken wrap which was fresh and tasty. They also do battered halloumi which is a real treat.

As they had been reported as being the best fish and chips in North Wales, we decided we'd try it out, as we were in Benllech.We ordered 4 cod (2 large and 2 small) and 4 portions of chips. We arrived home with our order to find 6 portions of chips and 2 cod! The disappointment, but not caused by the shop, wasn't helped by us actually living in Bangor, usually 20 minutes away but with Bank Holiday traffic it was much longer.We phoned them, and they offered to replace the whole order, to throw in a thermal bag and make all the cod large. We appreciated the gesture and we collected them, completing a return journey to Bangor.The battered cod were great , the chips were good. We would've liked some more salt and vinegar - but that's not a negative, as it is a matter of personal taste.Would we buy from them again, yes if we were near Benllech, but we'd carefully check the order, just in case.

I live on Anglesey, but have never visited The Golden Fry until today.After reading it's had an award for best fish and chips in North Wales, my sister and I popped over to Benllech to see for ourselves.All I can say it was the best fish chips and peas we've ever tasted. Everything was fresh and cooked to order, so food was hot. Very efficient and friendly staff. We used the click and collect service We will definitely be coming back for more. Congratulations on your award, you deserve it x

Be aware if you click and collect, you need to pay a scandalous 25p charge for a bag. This despite the charge for a single use bag being only 10p. Luckily didn't drop anything going back to the car.

We have been coming to Anglesey for the past 5 years. We have always loved our fish and chips from here but the last 3 times have bee1n terrible. The worst just yesterday with really chewy not fresh fish which is clearly frozen and the chips were still hard. I hope you go back to the way it used to be not sure why such a change!

Excellent fish and chips with covid secure service and not very far from a sea view on the picnic benches on the Beach Road with car park next door. Perfect.

Traveled 2hours for these fish and chips excellent food just how they should be. Large fish very thin crispy batter, and traditionally cut crispy chips. Will see you soon

Visited April, I had fish and chips the fish was lovely as were the chips (although soggy). Went again the next night and has a chicken burger and normal burger...this was not so nice. The burger was dry and tasteless and the chicken burger was just a full homogenised burger nothing special. So if you go choose the fish and chips.

Great fish and chips. Very easy to pre-order online and collect at a set time. Covid safe queuing and friendly staff. Most importantly the fish was lovely, the crispiest batter and tasty chips. Generous portions, a large fish and chips could serve 2 but they have a variety of sizes to suit all appetites.

Went to golden fry on 9th April , after hearing about their award for one of best chip shops around the area we were looking forward to trying them out , we had fish n chips , the chips we’re absolutely tasteless and they were more like frozen oven chips and the fish was no better , quality packaging but shame about the rest very disappointing

Every time we come to Benllech the first thing we do on the way is to phone and order Fish and chips to collect!!The fish is perfectly cooked never over done the batter is so light and never oily. All the staff are just lovely so well done to them staying open through the Pandemic and cheering people up with a beautiful meal.Congratulations also for coming one of the 50 best Fish and Chip shops in the Country.Keep up the good work not contaminating your oils with meats you can certainly taste the difference

Can’t believe all the fish is Gluten Free what a treat for my wife who is a Coeliac The Fish and Chips are absolutely superb and great polite service

Great fish and chips from this award winning chip shop. Great socially distanced pick up facility, which boasts a covered outdoor area for collection. Order on line or phone for a pick up slot. One of the best fish and chips around.

We had small fish and chips last night and there was more fish in a fish finger than the ones we got.

We drove all the way from caernarfon for our tea. As we have done many time through summer , phoned ahead our order to be ready in 30 mins both sea food baskets where over cooked , the saled was nice . My fish was ok but a bit oily and chips luck warm soggy they used to be crispy.peas not nice and curry sauce not nice . Dont think at the moment we will be returning for a while . What a shame because it used to serve realy good fish and chips gluten free to .

Second visit and as good as the first. Perfectly cooked fish and chips and mushy peas to die for. Ate parked in front of the sea in the car. A perfect way to spend an October day.

Read the reviews about how great this chippy is and travelled from Conwy specially to try them.The cod was tasteless. Some of the batter was dark brown underneath. The chips were undercooked. There are plenty of nicer chip shops in Wales. Don't bother with this one.

Heard a lot of good things about this place so thought we'd give it a go after a day on the beach. We orderd the fish and chips with peas and curry, best I've had in years and would highly recommend.

Just returned from a 2 week holiday in North Wales and visited the Golden Fry 3 times while there because the gluten free fish is just that good! Beautiful crisp batter that you'd never know it was gluten free, and good portion sizes. The online ordering system is fab for saving waiting time, and the staff are polite and helpful.

Great food..great service and gluten free too ..best chippyfor miles highly recommended..always cooked to perfection

Just enjoyed another delicious fish and chip supper from the golden fry. Absolutely perfect and the home delivery is a real bonus after a day on the beach! Thanks again for the quality and service you offer. Regards, Jan & Paul.

We had done some research to find gluten free places to eat in Anglesey. The Golden Fry is a treasure of a place! We were able to enjoy wonderful gluten free fish and chips - a real treat, as they are not locally available where we live. We ordered by telephone and picked up at the time given. Perfect! The staff were friendly and helpful and all precautions had been taken with Covid-19 in mind.

As always ........ fabulous. Take away fish and chips stayed crispy and luscious even after a 10 minute car journey. No trip to Anglesey can be enjoyed without a trip here.

First visit to the Golden Fry but definitely won’t be the last. Perfect fish, chips and mushy peas. All cooked fresh and tasted divine. Highly recommend

Golden fry is by far the best chippy on the island lovely fresh and crispy fish cooked to perfection and fresh chips well done with all the social distancing measures you have in place we will definitely be back

Had fish and chips here twice (on different days of our holiday just in case you're thinking we're greedy) as we enjoyed them so much - and they had the advantage of not causing tummy problems for those members of the family who're avoiding wheat.Service was fine - ordered and paid by contactless card, waited outside (under a shelter) for our number to be called a few minutes later.

We ordered our fish and chips on line and was on time and very easy to collect. The fish and chips were excellent and all 9 eaters in our group were completely satisfied with quality of the food, size portions and overall service. Would 100% recommend this take away service and the fish and chips were freshly cooked and delicious!!!

We opted to eat here as this Chip shop was recommended as the best of the three in town.£19 for two medium (felt small for medium) fish and chips and peas, gravy and a can. Felt dear. Very watery peas. Forgot our gravy.Would be better going to one of the other chipshops or simply getting Fish and chips on a day out in Baumaris/Rhosniger/Holyhead.

Had a beef burger. Poor quality produce. Greasy chips. Rude staff. Disappointed. Won’t go there again.

Visited whilst on holiday and was happy with what we got, friendly phone service (during covid19 pandemic), careful and considered customer service when arriving for a pick up - they respect customers which is a big plus.Food was good, hot, delicious and exactly what was ordered. The fish was plump and tasty, really nice. The chips were perfect and overall I'd say it was a bang up chippy that I'd happily visit again. Good job!

We’ve always come there for food and never been disappointed but this time round it was awful the chips were anemic, the curry sauce was at the most a tea spoon worth and the sausages tasted like they were 2 months old so disappointed. Has it changed hands???

Excellent fish, battered sausage & chips. Batter was lovey and light and the fish clearly very fresh. Also really enjoyed the Halloumi side dish. Social distancing made easy with the separate queue for pre orders (very easy to order online too). Staff were polite, friendly and efficient. We can’t wait to come back.

Recently visited this wonderful place while on holiday. As usual the food was amazing. i would advise that people book or use app as it was very busy and in this current situation we are in is quite stressful to social distance. Could not recommend this place any more .

Despite having to queue for a few minutes to order the food came quickly and was rather nice. Not the best I have had but certainly glad we went.

amazing fish and chips! luckily we got in before the que got long. felt really safe and good social distancing measures in place. one of the best fish and chips we’ve ever had!

Always have lovely quality tasty food. Halloumi and chips highly recommended for a veggie option. Also caters for Gluten free. My partner is a devoted carnivore and also gives it both thumbs up. The cheesecakes they sell are worth fitting in if you can manage it after the decent portion size. Service always friendly, nice to sit outside in warmer weather and look at the view. Been coming here for a couple of years and they have never let me down.

This chippie has been the best in Benllech for years but is now living on past reviews. People queue up and having had meals from here over the years I must say not up to the mark lately.

Couldn't fault it . Great to find gluten free tasty no greasy fish . You could order small or large cod very tasty and worth traveling a bit further for this fantastic chip shop in Benllech bay.we sat on the front and enjoyed our supper looking out to sea .well worth going again.hood service with a smile . Very helpful.

Couldn't fault this meal we had gluten small fish that was hood size dint need a big one hubby had large wad not greasy like alot of chippys we been to lately well worth traveling a bit further gluten free cod was great will go again .

After all the good reviews decided to have a treat of chips and mushy peas. Very disappointed with the chip as they weren't cooked properly and were quite hard in the centre. Was so looking forward to them ad well

We have always loved this fish and chip shop and have rated it the best on the island but queued three times recently only to be told that they have no haddock!! It is bad enough once but a notice on the counter or on the door advising that they have no haddock would have saved time and tempers. Very disappointing

There are a number of Chip shops in Benllech but the Golden Fry is without doubt the best. Great quality, cost effective and a wide selection in addition to the traditional fare.

New years eve.gorgeous day. parked in free parking and wandered across.Nice outside seated area .warm welcome by young basball cap wearing man.Service fab..friendly.chip bap great. sat outside .tables .umberellas and lights as well as a,wall of lovely plants with a clear weather proof wall .Just lovely.cuatomer service second to none.

These people have it right only people with Allergies would understand the fish and chips are cooked with nothing else all Batter is Vegan where else can you find this service?? Well done keep up the good work x

We are locals and occasionally like a chippy around 5.30 pm we have noticed quite a deterioration in the quality of food for instance it seems that by going not long after reopening in the afternoon we have reheated chips from lunch time also at one time we could order two sizes of curry tubs but when recently putting in our order for the larger one the person on the other end of the phone lied and stated we only do one size never the less we ordered only to find the one size curry pot was a lot less but charged at the previously large pot size therefore ripping off regular customers and the public at large however we must admit their fish despite being a tad pricey is top notch but stale chips and overpriced curry pot despite good fish is still stale chips and overpriced curry that is why I will use the new chippy in Benllech a little bit more expensive but apart from the fish being equal one gets better quality chips and a lot more curry for the same price

First time at the Golden Fry, highly recommended and I can see why. Cooked to order so may have to wait a while but worth it.

Simply the best chippy in Anglesey! Quality food, lovely informed staff & Eco-friendly. Perfectly cooked chips, not at all greasy. Tasty vegetarian curry sauce.

The staff and all the food is amazing, we have just moved to the area and found this little gem.

It looks popular because of the large queue but what you eventually work out is that there is just a huge queue because the staff are soooooo slow.

We collected fish and chips from the Golden Fry on our recent cottage holiday in Anglesey. Once again we were delighted. The fish is so fresh and the batter is lovely and crisp. Excellent!!

We both had a fish, chips, peas and curry takeaway. Absolutely gorgeous, best Fish I have ever had, lovely light batter, not greasy just totally delicious! Would highly recommend a visit.

Whatever happened to that lovely older man who served behind the till and everyone thought he was the owner because he's posh and not a ginge? Some people thought he was a grump and given to being sniffy, but we (I and my husband) could sense that for what it truly was: suppressed passion, with a linger of plaice. Queueing lost all its meaning when he left. Please, if he's not dead, can you bring him back and give him a braid lanyard for his glasses?

Food was average but the service was a surprise. Served by a young man in his late 20’s who was polite and helpful then by a dark haired woman in her 50’s who was rude and condescending. Won’t be returning.

Our daughter needs Gluten Free food for her health. This take away offers a full GF menu, I informed the server that our daughter required a gluten free children’s meal and was told the chips are GF as standard, I ordered a sausage meal for her. It’s so nice to find places we can all eat out together. There is a large selection of GF food on offer here, there was GF vinegar too. We will be back again

We went to this fish and chip shop on Monday based on trip advisor reviews. They were the worst fish and chips we have ever tasted. Very greasy, my fish was grey and tasted awful. We did not finish them and had to throw them away. I even asked for the calamari as an addition as the reviews again had been wonderful. We threw them away, they were not fresh, they tasted like they were from a supermarket, the batter was thick and orange. We had travelled from the other side of the island, very disappointed.

There are a few chippys in the area and this one is situated in centre of Benllech just behind Tesco.

Really enjoyed jumbo sausage,chips and fruity curry sauce ,fast friendly service.Tasted so good sitting by beach with sun out.

The calamari has always been sold out so I was so happy to get some this time and it definitely exceeded expectation, it was amazing, even my daughter enjoyed it, so much so she wanted to pinch it all. chips and fish also delicious. would highly recommend

Nice fish and chips. The best in Benllech. This is the only decent fish and chips in this area, set back behind the Tesco Direct.
