What Andrew Goodsman doesn't like about Wainfelin Chip Shop:
The temporary staff at this restaurant appeared to be incompetent. The chips were cold/lukewarm and the battered sausage looked unappetizing. The server seemed unaware of the poor quality of the food. Overall, the service was very poor. This was a takeout meal for dinner, with prices ranging from £1 to £10 per person. The food was rated 1 out of 5, service 3 out of 5, and atmosphere 3 out of 5. View all feedback. What User likes about Wainfelin Chip Shop:
I had an absolutely amazing experience with the fish, chips, and curry sauce at this restaurant. In my opinion, it is now the best fish and chip place in Pontypool. View all feedback.
