What garethj821 doesn't like about Fintans Fish Chip Co:
I have to say, I was very disappointed with this restaurant. The Pentwyn fish was almost frozen in the middle, the chips were mediocre, and the Llanishen cod bites were soggy.

Fintons Fish and Chips offers a varied dining experience that leaves guests with mixed impressions. While many patrons rave about the friendly service and freshly cooked dishes, others express disappointment in the food quality, often citing undercooked chips and soggy batter. Some diners enjoy the gluten-free options, while others feel slighted by incomplete orders and unresponsive staff. Despite these inconsistencies, Fintons maintains a loyal following, where nostalgic charm and the prospect of comfort food can outweigh occasional shortcomings. For those seeking a casual stop for fish and chips, Fintons might still be worth a visit, albeit with tempered expectations.
