On holiday with my sister and a friend, we liked the look of this cafe, so called in for our meal.
My fish, chips, and pineapple fritter were absolutely amazing. Very very tasty and hot. The chips were crispy on the outside, delicious.
The tea machine wasn't working so I was told we could go to the bakery next door to buy a cuppa and bring it back to have with my meal.
Wow! Not only were our drinks nice and hot. They sold cakes. I was spoilt for choice and could have bought loads. But I only bought a Chelsea bun and a Vienese. Ver large cakes and worth every penny. Great value for money. I think 2 teas, 1 coffee, and the cakes cost about £12.
My meal cost £9. Very reasonable.
I definitely recommend The Mermaid - and the bakery of course.
The best of Wales. Always busy. We need to wait for at least 5 to 10 minutes. The time i were there was nearly 5 pm in the evening. I waited around 20 minutes . The best fish and ships in the whole UK . No parking. Only 17 people can eat in. The batter fried cod fish was so succulent inside and crispy outside, and the wedges they fry a massive amount of it not from the refrigerator just chop in the machine and into the pool of good quality oil we can see through the glasses itself.
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.
Best fish and chips I have had in Wales. Spicy curry sauce amazing. Possibly best curry sauce in UK. Cod cooked perfectly. Chips perfectly cooked. Best spam fritter have ever tasted. Location great as a 2 minute walk to the beach. There was a queue before it opened. And a queue after we finished our meal at one of their tables. People for a reason. Not because the service is poor, the service was superb. There is a queue because of how good this place is. When in Barmouth or that part of Wales, the Mermaid is a must.
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 !!!!
