Finnegan's Takeaway

Tucked into the heart of Porthcawl, Finnegan's Takeaway is a long-standing chippy that keeps the town's fish-and-chip tradition very much alive. Rated 4.2/5 from more than 130 Google reviews, it has built a loyal local following for proper fried fish, hand-cut chips and a homemade red Welsh curry sauce that regulars rave about. The menu runs from a classic Fish And Chips to a popular Seniors Special, making it a reliable stop for both visitors strolling in from the coast and families after an easy supper.

Service is friendly and unfussy, with everything cooked fresh to order and portions generous enough to satisfy after a day by the sea. Whether you fancy a battered sausage, a fishcake or a full fish supper wrapped to carry down to the front, this is the sort of honest, no-frills takeaway that seaside towns do best. It remains a dependable favourite in this corner of Porthcawl.
