A bit off-topic but when I was younger I remember my local fish shop selling Beanos. It looked like a rissole on the outside, but was full of hot baked beans. Not sure if it was a valleys thing, but it was bloody lovely.
Yes, I was on a training course in the centre of Cardiff one day during the time I worked in Companies House and, for reasons I still cannot fathom, decided to have a chicken curry off the bone from Dorothys for lunch when I was stone cold sober - tried it once, won't be trying it a second time!
Everywhere on Caroline Street is shite
Can anyone shed light on a place in Canton called “Rabbiottis” ? This was open during the early 90’s. My father would always stop here and pick us up fish and chips , I was under the impression it was world renowned , however with hindsight I’m guessing it was the first chippy we passed on the way home.
Following on from your recommendation, I thought I'd pop into the Crispy Cod before a job in Treorchy. Thought the cost was more than reasonable for an excellent plate of fish and chips. Thanks for the heads up!
I enjoy Spertoni's fish bar in Llanrumney - like previously stated loads of Bluebirds memorabilia in the shop
My missus loves the chips from Fintans - Pentwyn
I'm not sure the last time I went in a chippy or a fast food joint TBH. If i had to get something for tea tonight from this type of eatery, I would probably head to the KFC if its still there in City road.
First golden rule, don't go to a chippy that doesn't cook/batter the fish fresh to order. Second, don't go to one that just says 'fish' on the menu.
Youngers in Birchgrove is excellent. Had a superb hake and chips from there last week...
In Cardiff you can't beat Youngers in Birchgrove for quality. Bit steep though.
More convenient and better value for me is Rock and Malt in Canton. Pint in the Robin Hood while they're frying the fish.
In Tenby Feccis and Park are both good but have been using the one up the road from the latter on the corner. Great value for a huge piece of fish.
Used to go to the Robin Hood and Romilly on Saturday nights quite often back in my drinking days, but that chippy was never open then - I rarely saw it open during the day as well, so I've never had anything from there. The Duke of Clarence was another Saturday night haunt and there's chippy close to where that pub used to be that has been there for at least twenty years that I've never ever seen open!
