The Mermaid

No visit would be complete without having fish and chips from The Mermaid Barmouth. Local and tourist favourite. 11.45 we were queued up up ready for it to open small fish and chips £6 medium £7 excellent value. Really enjoyed our meal, you can sit in or take away. If like us you have to queue its well worth the wait.

About an hour queue for this chippy, with people queuing down the street. Had a big group order which took less than 10 mins to make. The curry sauce was nice, but I think the portion of chips should be bigger compared to the price and how long people wait for it. I also had a halloumi fritter which was nice too, but a bit greasy underneath (which is to be expected). The two girls on the till (20/8/25 at 630pm) were sweet and helpful with our order even once we added one more portion of chips after the order had gone to the card reader.

We had two mini fish and chips @ £7 each for myself and partner .. kids had chicken nuggets and chips in smaller boxes. Total £24 The chips on the top appeared nice but mini fish really tiny wasn’t goi g to do a review but after you eat fee nice chips on top your left with hard crispy bits the left overs from the fryer .. it was in all 4 boxes so obviously a bulking trick they use… never again will we go there .. its a trick to get you im as you see people lining up to go in !!!!

1st time I had been however girlfriend knew about . Found a table but luck of the draw if you get one . We arrived at the right time as 10mins later the que was starring. Cooked fresh . Lovely piece of cod Plenty of chips all tasted amazing!! 10 out of 10 !!

Hands down the best chippy for miles. Great prices and the quality is superb. We tried quite a few things, including battered halloumi, cheese and onion fry and the best was the chicken goujons. These were only £1 each and we're out of this world. Proper chicken breast in a lovely southern fried coating!
