My Cod Fish Bar

Tucked away in Caerphilly, My Cod Fish Bar is the kind of place that knows exactly what a Friday evening demands. This friendly chippy does more than just fish and chips—they've thrown pizza and curry into the mix, creating a menu that covers all the comfort-food bases. It's the sort of spot where you can settle a craving for battered cod while someone else in the house opts for a cheesy slice or a warming curry, making everyone happy without a second takeaway order.

The fish here is the star: crisp, golden batter giving way to flaky, white flesh that steams when you open the paper. Their chips are proper chunky things, soft inside and salty on the outside. The curry sauce is a proper British chip-shop affair—thick, comforting, and just the right shade of yellow. When you're after a proper chippy tea that doesn't mess about, this place delivers. Order ahead online to skip the queue and get straight to the good bit.
