Quick info
About Andrew's Fish Bar
Andrew's Fish Bar is a family-owned fish and chips takeaway in Welshpool, based in a modern shop at 32 High St. The fish is cut oversized, sold as a portion the size of half a cod, and home-made fishcakes sit alongside it for those who want something different. Gravy can be added to a portion of chips, and the menu also lists sausages and a double cheeseburger. An over-60s lunchtime special gives older customers a deal of their own, and other offers run as well. Parking is limited and on the road outside.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers split on the fish and chips, and the fish itself is the main point of disagreement. Those who praise it call it delicious, with one describing literally half a cod under light, crunchy batter, and another a very large standard fish with great chips. Close behind, the staff are described as friendly and helpful, and the home made fishcakes are called delicious. One reviewer liked a lunchtime special for over 60s as a bargain that was perfectly cooked and filling. The critical reviews are specific. Two describe tasteless, greasy or soggy batter, with dry, hard chips and fish that tasted strange, and both call the shop very pricey for the quality. Another found the batter on the fish and sausages tough and received a double cheeseburger with no cheese despite checking, plus a long wait for a party of 5. Parking on the road comes up twice as hard to find. One reviewer, otherwise unimpressed, singled out the box the food came in as good.

“Saw this place advertised few days ago,with good reviews. Staying new mills for the week, like a little browse in welshpool so obviously thought I'd give it a try. Definitely no disappointment, £4.00 for over 60's lunchtime special, not only a bargain but perfectly cooked and filling. Had other offers on too. Sat on bench provided outside pink the nice sunny day.......”

“Dropped in today 14/03/26 around 12 ish. The staff were friendly and the place was clean. Sadly there ends the compliments. Both of us had small fish and chips. I added gravy. Neither of us could taste anything worth noting. The batter was tasteless and greasy. Very pricey too. Honestly a McDonald's would have had more flavour and thats saying something”

“Not much going for this place I found this place very expensive! The fish tasted strange and seemed to be a very cheap piece of fish. The batter was soggy. The chips were dry and hard, tasted like yesterdays. I feel it is way too expensive considering the quality. I always try and give something positive in my reviews......er..... The box the fish and chips came in was good 👍.”
