Reviews Overview
Most Liked
The fish and chips here receive consistent rave reviews for being perfectly cooked, with flaky fish and a crispy batter. Many patrons sing praises about the generous portion sizes, especially the accompanying chips. The variety within the menu keeps customers returning; whether it's the classic fish and chips or a satisfying veggie burger, there's something for everyone.
Quick service is another highlight, with delivery that often arrives hot and timely, particularly popular on weekends. The friendly staff enhances the experience further, bringing a warm atmosphere that resonates with the community.
Affordability also stands out, making Bryncae a go-to for a delicious meal without breaking the bank. Those tasty dirty burgers priced at around £3.50 are a must-try for those on a budget
Most Disliked
Despite its many strengths, some patrons have noted that peak dining times can lead to longer wait times, especially on Friday nights when it hits full capacity. This bustling environment can detract from the overall experience.
While the menu boasts varied offerings, a few customers have expressed a desire for more extensive vegetarian options. Although the current veggie burger is well-received, some feel more variety would elevate the dining experience further.
Another point of contention is the occasional inconsistency in food quality during extremely busy times. As with many popular eateries, maintaining high standards can sometimes falter during rush periods. But despite these minor drawbacks, the overall experience remains largely positive.

A really good variety of food, from classic chip shop through curries, veggie burgers and samosas. The ladies at the front of the house are friendly, fun and very well organised.

Ordered fish n chips, steak n kidney pie ( full to the brim) chips n gravy, safely and risible which was homemade and huge. What can I say except excellent. Ordered 6.30, delivered by 7pm by a lovely pleasant young man. This is the plaice ( get the pun) to go for collection or delivery. Won't go anywhere else now

The menu here has some nice snacks on when I'm rushing around inbetween jobs. The best value for money is the dirty burger which has bacon cheese and a dip/sauce for about £3.50. Nice chips to go with it as well.

I always like the fish and chips here. The fish is always nicely prepared, sizable and flaky and as a general rule I find the portions generous particularly with the chips.

Best fish and chips in the area every time! Lovely chips. Nice white fish with thin crispy batter. Just how fish and chips should be. We live in Pontyclun but always go to Bryncae for fish and chips
