Yallops in Swansea

Family day out, kids in the park and fancied fish&chips but told cash only, lots of posters to say cash is king etc- yet the cash point in their charges me to withdraw? How is that fair? They said its nothing to do with them but shops are paid to have a machine- if cash is so important Atleast opt for a free cash machine. Everyone left disappointed but I refuse to pay for cash and not practical to walk up to co-op with kids so we went elsewhere.

We went here on Sunday and we got two chips and fish cakes which were ak but one was salty and the other was bland and the chips did not have much flavour we also had two large chips and gravy which had more flavour and we're better but were not amazing all in all good fish and chips but wouldn't be my first choice when I am down mumbles

If you are in the Mumbles and fancy Fish and Chips you can't do better than Yallops . Quality , value for money and great people , give them a try , you will not be disappointed !

Have eaten here since I was a child and the food is always top notch! Chips are always delicious and I still all these years later travel down just for their gravy. It’s the best chip shop gravy ever! ❤️

10/10 chips, fish was crispy and succulent. Very friendly staff, especially one girl in particular - would recommend for an easy lunch if you’re in the area!

Genuinely brilliant chips, probably the best I've had in 20 years. An outstanding combination of excellently cooked chips (soft on the inside with a lightly battered exterior) without much grease at all. The staff were lovely and seem to genuinely care about doing well. I'll...

Ordered fish, chips and curry sauce. Cost about £12 which was rather expensive. The chips were nice and the curry sauce was okay. Unfortunately the fish was full of bones which is so off-putting. I picked about 7 or 8 bones out. Would not go...

Fantastic fish and chips. Quickly cooked to order and really tasty. Brilliant selection of fish, chips, nuggets, pies, sausage, scampi. Choose of meal sizes. Really good value. A stones throw from batch searing looking over the sea. Tip: Check your tide times for a lovely...

Tax dodging, terrible business model, with a cash machine that charges also, what successful business doesn’t take cards these days

this place was brilliant, i cannot believe the bad reviews, i think these people must have been at another fish and chip shop? best fish and chips i have had for a long time and yes we had to wait for the cod to be...

Food was really nice. Rich gravy. But how are there still places operating a cash only payment! Ridiculous and antiquated. Shame really.

This used to be an excellent fish and chip shop but the last couple of times I’ve been here it has been really disappointing. The worst piece of fish I have had in years, cod was really thin and not flakey at all. In fact...

Have visited this establishment twice in the last few weeks at a lunch time. Had assortment of food fish and chips, scampi and chips ,Sausage and chip. The only thing ready cooked was the sausage have had to wait for the chips fish and scampi...

Went here yesterday, a very don’t care less attitude and dreadful fish and chips. Several bones in the fish and dry and not very hot chips. Such a pity as an ideal spot right on the seafront.

absolutely stunning food! everything was packaged so nicely and neatly which made the food stay warm. staff were so lovely and very talkative. fish and nuggets always cooked to order so they were fresh which made them taste even nicer. absolutely amazing place, couldn’t recommend...

Walked in, then walked straight out. did not think that i needed to feel as if i was paying Norwegian prices in wales. Though the chips looked as if they had seen better days the price of the food was the real shock unless the...

Whilst at the Mumbles yesterday my wife and I fancied fish and chips. Yallops was a BIG mistake. Cremated cod £8.10 and cold soggy chips at nearly £3 a portion. Should have taken them back but had already sat on the seafront in the hope...

This place has always been the biggest rip off in swansea, but now they’ve taken it a step further. It’s 2022 and it’s recently been refurbished. But rather than cough up themselves for a card machine, they have decided to avoid the fees for the...

Great location and easy to access from the front. Handy one way system inside. The fishcake was really big and good for its money, it was also really delicious. The small sausage was tasty, your typical chip shop sausage. Chips were nice but were a...

Went at 5.30pm and they had no customers and no fish cooked (so not expecting any). Partner really fancied chips. Very expensive. Chips were cold, greasy and soggy. Only take cash. Thrown most of it away. I haven't reviewed on here for years, but I'm...

Portions poor for the price paid and should offer more than one curry sauce as the Irish one isnt very nice, being a local I am disappointed with them since reopening won’t be going back

I almost never write reviews but this was so awful I feel obliged to warn people. Ordered 3 small cod and chips last week, 20 odd quid later and all three of us agreed that it was the worst we'd ever had. Looked and tasted...

Come here just for the curry sauce! The fish and chips were also beautiful and the service was very very friendly, lovely guy who owns it!

Called in teatime. Pleasant young lady served us. Had a large fish and chips which the young lady was more than happy to split into 2. Fish and chips were good quality and the service was excellent. Would recommend.

Stopped off here to satiate my craving for Welsh chips, rissole, and gravy. Did not disappoint. Chips were crisp outside and fluffy inside, just how they should be, rissole was large and perfect, and lashings of gravy served from a metal serving tray, as opposed...

The chips taste amazing! Good meals to take away we sat by the sea while the rain stopped. All in family were happy with their meals only complaint was that one of the sausages was a bit hard but apart from that all good! Dogs...

Visited today and as with previous reviews. Chips seemed to have been reheated and were luke warm and very small quantity for the price and the sausage was undercooked, luckily it was for the dog

We went to Yallops only because the queues were too long elsewhere. When we got home my husband complained that his fish was small, it was it was tiny. There weren’t that many chips and they weren’t great. My Pie was not as good as...

Took my daughter and mother for fish and chips. The fish was the smallest piece of fish I have ever seen. Complained and they agreed to make another and to be honest I wish I didn't bother as that was also shocking. The chips were...

Poor quality fish and chips was not hot and not very big fish for price also batter was soggy but the worst bit was mushy peas as seen in picture has to reheat when home only 5 mins down road and all the chip were...

The rissole was like a ball of sawdust and flour mixed with herbs which immediately disintegrated when attempting to eat it with a wooden fork. The service was poor, maybe try smiling ..it makes a big difference. Rissole and chips were overpriced, they don't take...

First time I been here for fish and chips,We must say it was beautiful,probably the best I have tasted,very good portion and polite staff.Thank you.

Chips were really nice but vegan sausage was awful. It’s a shame as it’s one of the only places locally that does a vegan option but it really needs more attention. It’s clear this was introduced by a non vegan. Vegan sausages are very hit...

Still a good place and didn’t disappoint after a few years away. The fish and chips was lovely as it always has been. I’ve not been here for about 7 years and the food is just good as I remember when I first came here...

We ordered chips here which were very nice. The portion size was average and the staff were friendly. The chip shop was quiet and all safety measures were in place during our visit.

Went here for lunch today about 2pm, placed my order, had ordered a child’s meal, pie and a fish and chips. We then drove down to Swansea bay to eat our lunch before heading back to the Midlands. when I opened the fish and chips,...

We had fantastic service and food that we preordered and collected during lockdown and another amazing takeaway when restrictions eased. Ellie was really friendly, the shop was really clean and there were screens, hand sanitiser and everyone kept their distance so felt really safe. The...

Called here as every day so far on holiday we had seen long queues so thought this to be a good sign! Ordered then we were told they had no ketchup, tartare sauce or sauce of any description bar curried mayonnaise! The fish cake and...

Called at yallops fish and chip shop It was the worst fish and chips I have ever had in my life. Soggy chips all stuck to the paper inside the box.curry sauce was awful And the fish was the size of a small Goldfish

Called in there, as Johnny's shut on a Sunday. Really wish we hadn't. The girl serving was really pleasant, but that's the start and end of the good news. Firstly, as someone else pointed out - cash only during the cV-19 pandemic - this is...

Well. I didn't expect to pay £17 (cash only in these Covid times, REALLY) for 2 fish and chips in the Mumbles. Yeah maybe somewhere more salubrious than the Mumbles. But........ Hell the BEST Fish I have ever had so that dulls that pain some...

Absolutely disgusting should be shut down fish was soggy portion a joke chips undercooked price was unbelievable we dumped the majority will be reporting to food hygiene

Best chip Shop ever!! Stopped here for lunch was absolutely Gorgeous first class we sat in the park to eat them bloody gorgeous ! X x

Had fish and chips x3 3 cans of pepsi and a carton of curry sauce .the curry sauce wasnt given but charged for .shocking when the server told me it was 31 something pound .when we unwrapped omg the smallest portion of chips ever for...

Customer service was rubbish and the wait time was 30mins for fish and chips, don't ask for a child's portion unless you are going to feed a field mouse. No covid 19 screens up and staff not wearing masks. The guy cooking was eating and...

First day 5 mile rule is lifted so went down to Mumbles for a long walk and lunch.Stopped here for fish and chips and were very pleased we did.I had plaice and chips and hubby had fresh mackerel and chips,both were delicious.There was quite a...

Had a delivery whilst on covid lockdown. Courteous delivery driver..fab fish and chips, while order again soon . Thanks Nick

Thought the traditional fish and chip shop on the front would have a good reputation. Aweful service, fish was worst ever , chips ok , price was ludicrously high, probably the most expensive in uk. Not surprising that so many café s close down. Let...

Many times I have bought fish and chips in Yallops freshly cooked fish always available nice crisp chips great value for money.

We have been on several occasions and each time the fish has been cooked to order. It is delicious with the batter being light and fluffy and the chips the same!

Smallest large portion of chips I’ve ever had . The chips were nice but I felt ripped off! Dread to think how big small is

Been coming here for years and always considered it the best in this area until this visit. Food was very poor, service was awful and price seemed sky high: 85p for a tiny gherkin that was inedible. Curry sauce was grainy, bread rolls (only had...

I've been coming here for many years and the standard never drops. Beautiful fresh fish and lovely chips eaten on a park bench looking over the sea. What more could you ask for? Our dog, Charlie enjoyed the sausages too!

Had rissole and chips and really enjoyed them I got small portion of chips but they gave me loads more than enough glad I didn't get large portion.well worth it.

We had a large cod and chips to share (just as well we did share as it cost nearly £10!) for lunch. Fish was cooked well and chips were tasty.

The food is good in Yallops, but it's a little pricey for a fish and chip shop (but I suppose that's down to the location of it more than anything). Other than this, I can't really fault it.

Called to this once excellent fish bar but was very disappointed with our order Chips were soggy and lots of green and brown/black thereon the potatoes The pies. Not sure who is their supplier but they need to change as the pie pastry was very...

Not good at all! This chip shop had a recent mention in local press as a ‘place you should visit’- wish I hadn’t! £8 for what I hoped was Cod and chips in a styrofoam container sadly lingered in the memory for all the wrong...

The chips were of a good standard, all lightly crispy. The rissole was the worst I have ever had! It lacked taste, and was the consistency of paste.

People have to stop using this place they have a heightened opinion of their Food and they couldn't be more wrong . Nearly £10 for cod and chips ,not enough chips for the money and cod was overcooked and dry 35p for a ketchup sachet...

The most expensive chip shop £3.50 for chips to takeaway. Would have said keep them but had my children with me . The chips did not taste nice and my children did not eat much of them.. I suppose being opposite a park they can...

2 large fish and chips and 4 ketchup pot things...£19.80. Couldn’t enjoy my meal knowing I’ve just paid £20 for 2 large fish and chips...mediocre at best. I actually still can’t believe I paid that much. Had probably like 20 chips or less most of...

Was starving marvin after a long drive down to visit relatives. Got to Yallops around 7pm, closes at 8pm. The young girl serving said there was no small cod,only large, which seemed strange for a Saturday evening - or was that a ploy just to...

The whole pier is a miserable experience, epitomised by this dreary lacklustre fish and chip shop. I assume based on having a semi captive audience there is little stimulation to put much effort in, but this was abusing that. Strewth knows who thinks their curry...

Having spent a lovely afternoon in the Mumbles I really fancied fish and chips. Spotted Yallops and went in. On ordering cod and chips, the server called into the back ‘are these large cod?’ The response was yes. Now, I did have my glasses on,...

Despite the poor reviews on here, we decided to give Yallops a try simply because our children were hungry and it was close. Unfortunately we found the same issues that other reviewers have commented on: the chips had a strange taste (as if the oil...

Had to wait for chips to cook which is fair enough but when we got them they looked reheated and were very poor quality and small portion won't be going back

Really disappointed with both the food and service we received today . While waiting for our food to be cooked , another customer entered the store to return a rissole . The young man behind the counter briefly spoke to a person behind the cooker...

Stopped off with the family only because we saw a parking space. I'm glad we did for the fish and chips we had were virtually perfect. Although somewhat expensive you paid for quality so no complaints.

Since our last visit things seem to have gone downhill a bit. The chips weren’t particularly hot, just warm. The food hygiene rating is only 2 and the food seems really overpriced. We’re always wary of places that say cash only, no cards - it...

There was food all over the floor and I noticed there was no food hygiene rating displayed as legally required. Was not surprised when I checked online that the food hygiene rating was only 2*, had I known I would not have gone there and will not be going again

We visited here after a family day out down the lido and park. The food was delicious but VERY overpriced. We had a child's sausage and chips, 2 x jumbo sausage & chips and 2 cans which came to £16! Tasty but won't be visiting...

Hi was feeling bit hungry so stopped here for some fish and chips. On arrival I noticed the fish wasn't that big so was in two minds whether or not to get it.but my wife likes fish so I thought I'd get it for her...

Pleasant Fish and Chip place with sit down or take away. Lovely to be able to take it and sit by the edge of the pier enjoying the waves. Can also buy local cider

12 year old serving Behind the Counter didn't have any health and safety concerns rubbing his nose seafood not washing his hands absolutely disgusting will never again

We had fish and chips over the weekend, different price for the fish and the chips. Kids normally loved it but quite few bones found, so be careful especially with the children. Chips were good though, and near the harbour.

£3.25 for terrible chips, well I suppose the price hike is Mumbles...👎 Pity really as we have been here many times before but never again..

After being told of a three minute wait, turned into a 15 minute wait, they also didn't have any soft drinks, only water, bizarre for a chip shop! - Anyway, the chips were chewy and had a very odd taste to them. And of course,...

Excellent fish & chips. Good spot near to the harbour wall. Good value and friendly service. Happy to return

Like most people who have a day out by the seaside we had saved our appetite for the treat of fish and chips for lunch. We ordered 2 lots of fish and chips with sides. We waited a while but we didn't mind as at...

Fab fish and chips! We stayed in the Mumbles for 7 days and visited here twice so must be good! Fish was really fresh

Had a potion of fish and chips and rissole and chips was absolutely disgusting won't be returning there chips were not edible was chewy as if been reheated a few times fish didn't taste like cod rissole was edible but not the best sorry extremely disappointed!

I went to yallops yesterday with my friend and witnessed a larger member of staff I'm assuming the (boss) in another member of staff face shouting and belittling him in a way that was not fit for private let alone in a busy shop with paying members of the public , The language was foul and to be fair the other male member of staff did not deserve the abuse he was receiving , I was so disgusted I didn't even wait to be served ,At one point the larger male was head to head with the other male member and he didn't say a word just took all the abuse given to him absolutely disgraceful .Can't comment on the food as I left before being served but last time I did have food the chips were OK but the fish was all batter and bones , Definitely improvement needs to be made and definitely work ethics discussed as that's certainly not a way to run a business and keep staff . :(

Very busy as the sun was out in Mumbles so we had to queue on the pavement, but very friendly staff, and delicious cod and chips. The batter was lovely and crunchy, and the fish was perfectly cooked. Hello summer!

We have eaten for years from Yallops. In the past we always had great service and lovely fish and chips. Sadly last few times on visiting Yallops the food has gone downhill drastically. The last time today, was the last time! Chips were cold and not fresh, fish.... well what fish???? It was just batter! Took it back, wanted a refund but was offered another piece of fish/batter. Very sad to see a well renowned fish bar selling food that's overpriced and not even edible. They are solely resting on their prime location, and ripping the public off by doing so. I for one will not be going here again, and many of my friends and family have also had the same experience. We would prefer to either eat locally In one of the many restaurants or travel up the road to another fish shop. Certainly will not be going to Yallops again.

Good fish and chips from Yallops on the promenade. Fast, friendly service as you'd expect from a chippy! Portions were well sized not too much and not too little!

Fish has bones in every mouthful, Baps were rock hard, Service was very slow and forgot my order 5x.

Ordered 3 lots of chips, cold and inedible. We tried this chip shop last year and were unimpressed so decided to give them another try as thought it could be a one off, how wrong we were, still as bad.

Great little fish and chip shop near the bay. Food is exactly as you'd expect. All the classics on the menu at great prices and friendly staff. But if you're planning to go here take cause as they don't take card

Went to Yallops as we were staying close by . My wife had beans and chips which were fine but I ordered just a fish and was told they only had £5:00 fish left . I said that was ok but when I opened the tray at the seats opposite my fish was no bigger than my iPhone a complete rip off. Never again .

people are pretty cold and don't seem to care that much, the location is great for passing trade and for people who don't know any better.The chips are really bland and overpriced.Go to dick bartons in west cross if you can it's basically the opposite in every way.

My wife and I had fish and chips from here on Saturday evening. The parking experience was a nightmare and it really was not worth the effort. Whilst the chips were Ok the fish was completely tasteless, Batter very thick

Clearly the staff need a lesson in kitchen ethics! You do not scrape your greasy hair back and tie it up on the serving counter and then proceed to serve food! This was our second visit in two weeks the 1st was okay apart from the young girls hanging around out the back and chatting with the cook who kept shouting 5mins for Chips every 5mins stop talking and fry! The second time was the girl and her hair who just appeared from the back with her coat on and started serving, we left after waiting for her to at least wash her hands but NOPE.....From what I gather this place is managed for someone (Nick was the owner a few years ago) I'm sure he would be utterly disappointed and disgusted with the place, maybe a rethink. Won't be returning sorry nick

The chips are lovely, nice and thick and have a good flavour. Only thing to be weary of the boy tried to over charge me he knew I had only ordered one small chips and a large, he charged me for 3. When I queried he went bright red, so just make sure you get the correct change.

We have visited Yallops a number of times when visiting Swansea and have never been disappointed. This is a standard British fish and chip shop, but they are always very friendly and very reasonably priced as well.Well worth a visit for food on the go.

I totally recommend Yallops for great tasting fish & chips plus a warm welcome. We pre booked our meals and the staff were on point and extremely helpful. Best fish & chips for ages, thank you

Called in here as I was felling Hungry attended a Church Service at Nearby All Saints Church this past Sunday evening,Two Young lads served and I only ate half of them and threw the rest in the bin they where rubbish!

We were looking for evening meal of fish and chops, while in The Mumbles . Although it was nearly closing time , the welcoming young guy who was serving , immediately put fresh fish and chips in to cook . Couldn't have been more apologetic about the wait , which when we got the end result , was more than happy to do . Batter was so crispy and fish cooked perfectly .He was so accommodating with our 6 various orders . We ate them across the road on bench , in the dark watching the lights across the bay .

Excellent food fish was fresh a tasty good value for money over all. Fish was a good size and one large was enough for me and my husband. Children had a kids meal each good portion sizes and came with a drink £3.50 was very impressed. Really enjoyed will be coming back and would recommend for anyone especially family's.

I stopped here with my daughter whilst in Swansea and had fish and chips with curry sauce. All the food was really nice especially the fish. My daughter had sausage and batter which was also good. Th guy serving was really friendly and even let my daughter try the curry sauce before we bought it.
