The cod at Maindee Fish Bar consistently receives rave reviews for its freshness and flavor. Diners appreciate that the fish is crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside—a delightful contrast that perfectly captures the essence of classic fish and chips.
Vegetable samosas stand out as a favorite appetizer, praised for their crispy exterior and well-seasoned filling. Many customers recommend trying this dish to kick off your meal.
Another highlight is the affordability of the menu. With dishes priced between £1 and £10, patrons often remark on the value they receive for their money, especially for generous portion sizes.
Most Disliked
Some diners have reported longer wait times during peak hours, especially on Fridays when the restaurant reaches full capacity. While this is often a testament to the quality of the food, it’s something to consider if you are in a hurry.
A few customers have mentioned that the menu can feel overwhelming due to its extensive options. With 76 different plates to choose from, making a decision can be a bit challenging for first-time visitors.
Occasionally, there are comments about the limited dessert options. While Maindee Fish Bar excels in savory dishes, some visitors hope for a sweet ending to their meal with more dessert selections.
