I questioned after hearing from one of the top men behind the counter telling the other guy that the chicken goujons weren't hot and was told... yes they're hot.. everything behind here is piping hot.. well guess what... they weren't! So to the lady who served me, when you get asked if somethings hot.. dont dismiss it as if its my fault for asking.. try checking for yourself next time!! Disgusting customer service! 😡😡😡

Chips were really ,really nice, however the sausages are the smallest I've ever seen, and poor value for money at nearly £2 for a tiny battered sausage. If I could,I'd leave 3.5 stars, 5 for the chips, 2 for the sausages. Decent chippy, but not a compulsory pit dtop

Hopefully we just went on an off night. Never been before or previously seen the reviews. Our fish and chips were both absolutely dripping in grease to the point a pool had solidified around the fish tray once cooled. Distinctly average and wouldn't return unfortunately. Contradictory to reviews the staff were friendly and polite, and prices were reasonable.

After queueing for 45 minutes we were greeted with appalling customer service from the 'girl' serving us with short hair and piercings. Her attitude was rude and unnecessary blunt. It was so blatant that the other member of staff actually apologised for her behaviour. She made us feel really uncomfortable and it was not what I would expect from such a well known chip shop. We had heard really good things about this chip shop, the food was great, but we were really let down by the service. We will be looking elsewhere next time we're in Barmouth as this encounter has discouraged us from ever wanting to return.

The food is amazing, I had some chicken. The spice and flavouring was perfect. The quene is usually quite long but I can see why with the chicken being that good. The atmosphere isn't the greatest as the area around the shop isn't very sceneric, but at the same time it's right in the middle of town.

Visited here whilst passing through Barmouth. We checked trip advisor prior and this and place was dated far above the others. I ordered the fish and chips and it was up there with some of the best I’ve had. The fish was perfectly cooked, the batter was crispy and the fish flaky. At £9 it was fairly priced especially considering the huge portion I was given.

A trip down memory lane for me. We used to get our dinners there when holidaying 40 years ago, and the food was always good. It's nice to see that things haven't changed. The chips were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, as a good chip should be. The cod was great and the batter crisp and golden. Top marks...

I ate here two days in a row as the food was so good and reasonably priced. The chips are probably the best I’ve ever had from a chippy! The cod on the first night was well cooked with crispy light batter and the chicken goujons deal of chips, goujons and a side for £7 was brilliant value on the second night. The southern fried gravy was peppery and delicious and the curry sauce was classic and tasty. The service was quick and friendly and I can only give the highest praise to the overall quality of the food!

I really enjoyed my meal, as did my wife, and our Dog, who was given a small tub of free chips.

I don’t know what everyone else on here is talking about as this is by far the worst takeaway experience I ever had. Waited 1 hr 40 for my food, the service was rude and the food was mediocre. Staff on their mobile phones and eating food as they went along, cutting people off as they’re ordering, getting orders wrong. I don’t know if anyone’s seen Come Fly With Me but the lady who ran the coffee kiosk would’ve done a better job than the staff there. The food was no better than an average chippy but not worth longer than a 20 minute wait, let alone 100 minutes. I wouldn’t have recommended the experience to a kiddy fiddler as that would be too harsh to them.

I have been coming here for years as I have a caravan in Talsarnue and often visit Barmouth for water sports. However, the last few visits have been incredibly disappointing. Food is always cooked to perfection, I love their fish and chips and that’s why I have kept going but the staff really let it down. They’re rude, impatient and unfriendly. It makes me feel so uncomfortable when they take my order. I find two of the ladies are quite snappy. I suffer with social anxiety and can get overwhelmed at busy places and it just makes me feel worse every time I go there. I guess they can get away with this behaviour because they can afford to lose customers. I won’t be going back.

When we got our order we was missing a large cod I asked her 2s if it was all there got to the sea front and it was missing No apology just attitude

Maybe we were just unlucky. We got here on Wednesday at noon. There was already a queue standing outside. We read the online reviews and we're excited to eat here. Service was fast and nice to us. We got 2 fish and chips, onion rings and peas on the side. The portions are enormous and the onion rings were tasty. The star of the show however disappointed. The fish was coated in a tasty batter but the meat itself was really dry. Not succulent or jucy. It was a shame since everything else was good. Maybe we just got 2 pieces which were in the back of the batch too long...

When you see a takeaway with a massive queue outside you know it’s either gonna be amazing or somehow people have been sucked in by the hype. Well let me tell you, that the 25 mins queue time was worth it. A big fillet of cod, 2 potato scallops and a can of drink for under £8.50 is not a bad price these days, and the quality of the food was wonderful. The fish was tasty, the batter was light and crispy and it was roasting hot and tasted fresh. But the scallops, well I don’t know what they do with them but I have never had any half as good as these, beautiful. I’ve thought of visiting here before when in the town but the queue has always put me off. It won’t any more!
