Haven't been to Porthcawl in a long time. Was told this was an award winning chip shopMust have been a long time ago and they must have been taken over. The main young person serving me couldn't have been more miserable. The guy who cooled my cheese and leek rissole as a last minute order was the happiest person in there.Place was empty other than me and 3 other peopleChips were cold and not v.niceRissole was nice

Usually we go to Beales, it's a staple of good fish and chips in Portcawl. Family have been to Finnegans previously, I have not. Very quiet Wednesday afternoon, staff are very friendly, the place; very clean, bright airy. The food was nice, hot and freshly made. The unlimited chips option intrigued my son who has the appetite of an entire rugby squad, he also found the free WiFi password funny. His chicken bites hit the mark, my father had cod and was unusually satisfied. My chicken curry, half and half of course, rice perfect, chips lovely, curry sauce (mild but more a medium) was perfect. However, a chicken curry should really have more chicken in it, five pieces is a little light for a "chicken curry". But that is literally the one and only thing I can fault. Staff clean tables promptly, toilets on site, music, licenced and seating for large groups. Ah, the only other thing, seats a tad uncomfortable after a while, so, eat quickly. But overall, enjoyable meal and a very nice place to eat.

An excellent fish & chip bar. We ate in - the food was brilliant, so freshly cooked. We couldn’t manage anymore but they offered ‘unlimited chips!’ There was home made tartare sauce and you could buy a mini bottle of wine to have with your dinner. Excellent- probably one of the best fish and chips we have ever had

Not the cheapest, not the most expensive, but well worth what we paid for the food.

Never again as the portion I got for 8.60 was pitiful. The cod if I can call it that was no bigger than scampi and the chips I got with it was no more than 20! I should of read the reviews first!

Food was hot at least. Probably the most expensive fish and chips I've ever purchased in the UK other than in a restaurant!
We visited this restaurant recently and were unhappy with the quality of the whitebait meal which we ordered. In our opinion, this fish had not been prepared and displayed a strong unnatural odour. We asked for a replacement meal and was told that there is nothing wrong with the whiteboard and we could not have a replacement meal just because we did not like the taste! We then had to pay extra to replace this with a cod order. In my opinion this is against the Consumer Rights Act 2015 This Act States; 'As soon as you realise that your food is not up to standard, you should complain to a member of staff. You can then reject the meal and choose not to have it replaced if you wish. Alternatively, you can ask for the meal to be ‘repaired’ or ‘REPLACED’, and therefore ask for a new meal or a replacement item of food. In the event that the replacement meal or item does not meet the standard you expected then you will have a final opportunity to ‘reject’ the meal. In the event you reject the meal you should NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR IT'. We will not be visiting this establishment again.

Their whitebate taste awful (like rotten fish) i couldnt eat it. Ordered cod fish ON its own since I have chips already and its another disappointment “TASTELESS”. NO couldnt recommend this place at all.

Such a great fish and chips. Curry sauce was banging. Gravy was real good too

I stayed locally on holiday last year & went here purely because the queue wasn't big & wasn't disappointed, so went back again on my visit this year. The price has gone up, but still worth every penny. Just one little moan, you forgot my mushy peas.

I purchased 2 regular cod with 2 small portions of chips expecting something above average. What I received was nothing short of disgusting. Having paid nearly £9 for a piece of cod each, the quality and size would not make the £1 mark. To add insult to injury, the fish was over fried with a very dark brown colour and a horrendous taste. The chips were passable, nothing more. I acknowledge that I should have inspected the contents of the boxes before leaving the shop especially when the customer before me asked for a refund. The purchase was made e route to my home; so to return this excuse for food would result in a further cost of fuel which I was not prepared to do. Finnegans you will have to up your game if you are to survive this crowded market.
