Hopefully we just went on an off night. Never been before or previously seen the reviews. Our fish and chips were both absolutely dripping in grease to the point a pool had solidified around the fish tray once cooled. Distinctly average and wouldn't return unfortunately. Contradictory to reviews the staff were friendly and polite, and prices were reasonable.

Staff were friendly and kind. Owner allowed us to sit in the shop with our dog while we eat as it was freezing outside. Definitely the best fish and chips I’ve ever

Absolutely gorgeous!! Hands down the best fish and chips we have ever had - and we’ve sampled a lot! The food was all so fresh, tasty and not greasy at all! It was cooked to perfection and portions were huge! Staff were also lovely, thank you!

After queueing for 45 minutes we were greeted with appalling customer service from the 'girl' serving us with short hair and piercings. Her attitude was rude and unnecessary blunt. It was so blatant that the other member of staff actually apologised for her behaviour. She made us feel really uncomfortable and it was not what I would expect from such a well known chip shop.We had heard really good things about this chip shop, the food was great, but we were really let down by the service. We will be looking elsewhere next time we're in Barmouth as this encounter has discouraged us from ever wanting to return.

The food is amazing, I had some chicken. The spice and flavouring was perfect. The quene is usually quite long but I can see why with the chicken being that good. The atmosphere isn't the greatest as the area around the shop isn't very sceneric, but at the same time it's right in the middle of town.

Best fish and chips I've had in years! So good I got the commemorative mug too. Incredibly friendly proprietor who was more than happy to have a chat as well. Would certainly recommend 10/10

One of the best fish and chips shop I have ever been to.Very well cooked fish and very yummy potatoes. Beautiful crispy butter and very good service.

Probably the best fish and chips I have had in years. Well cooked food that was perfect, good size portions and very friendly service. 2 adult fish and chips, 1 kids fish and chips and 3 soft drinks for £25. A few tables to eat in which we usedI will definitely come back next time I'm in Barmouth
Come down to Barmouth for a wander around whilst staying locally for a week. Seen this place on a YouTube channel a while ago so thought I’d pop in. Very possibly THE very best fish and chips I’ve ever had from a takeaway. Can definitely recommend 100%!!

A trip down memory lane for me. We used to get our dinners there when holidaying 40 years ago, and the food was always good. It's nice to see that things haven't changed. The chips were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, as a good chip should be. The cod was great and the batter crisp and golden. Top marks...

Visited here whilst passing through Barmouth. We checked trip advisor prior and this and place was dated far above the others. I ordered the fish and chips and it was up there with some of the best I’ve had. The fish was perfectly cooked, the batter was crispy and the fish flaky. At £9 it was fairly priced especially considering the huge portion I was given.

The Mermaid had the best reviews for fish and chips in Barmouth and rightly so. The fish and chips were excellent. Cooked perfectly and not oily at all. Will definitely return when we’re in Barmouth.
