Nestled in the heart of Cardiff, this popular chip shop boasts generous portion sizes and a menu that pleases a variety of palates, from fish and chips to burgers and kebabs. While many rave about the fresh, flavorful offerings and friendly staff, some guests note disorganization during peak hours, which can lead to extended wait times. The delightful Irish curry sauce is a standout, though quality can fluctuate with certain items. Despite occasional hiccups, patrons agree the food is consistently good and worth the wait, making it a must-visit for local seafood lovers.

What ErnieH472 dislikes about Maelfa Fish:
It's alright but won't displace our favourite. The chips were okay cooked and plentiful but we felt the fish was a tad thin. Popular so expect a wait and as others have reported phone orders coming in all the time. Plenty of variety on the menu, like kebabs and burgers too. View all feedback.
