Talking of Rissoles

What do reckon is the best chippy in the Swansea area?. I always loved Dick Barton's down the Mumbles. Generous portions, nice crispy fish, loads of chips. Wish I hadn't started this, I want Fish and Chips now!

 

The one in Skewen is good. Opposite the car sales. You've got me hungry now too

 

Rossi's for me, back when they were in the Hafod.

 

the Argyle Fish Bar for me.
On Argyle Street, Sandfields.

Best chips and rissoles imo and always surprised when a meal for 2 or 3 comes in at approx. £5

 

The Contented Sole in Gowerton.

 

Dick Bartons used to be great...But they went down hill a few years ago...not sure why?

 

Yep agree!!!

 

The best one is Romas in Woodfield Street, Morriston. Just opened

Can't believe we have got a thread about chips and rissoles

 

And so is the one on the Industrial estate in Skewen

 

Francos on the beachfront in Port Talbot do great chips. I hate it when a chippy rushes the chips because there is a queue building - they end up being under cooked and too hot to eat. Never the case in Francos - always done to perfection. Downside is their fish. Like most places it seems the fish is overwhelmed by the batter. Once you manage to break through it you find a skinny greasy fish inside. Rossi's Fish is way better but still not amazing.
If any chip shop doesn't have Heinz tomato ketchup - walk away. It's a crime in my eyes.

 

Whats the name of the Itallian café/chippy opposite Lloyds bank off the Kingsway great rissoles!!!

 

Kardomah's?


Windsor Cafe's not bad either but not Italian.

 

The chippy in Birchgrove is nice. But I like rossi's though they are quite expensive now

 

There is a good one in penderry Rd penlan and worth the money also good curry.

 

Haven't had the chance to visit Swansea in years, but is Mr D's still in Uplands? Used to love them from there. Nice and fluffy yet crispy on the outside.

 

And just down the road near the bridge was Angelo's cafe - best ice cream ever (even better than Joe's)

 

I might have to argue with you on the ice cream front. I did always like Bayliss Ice Cream as well.

 

Love Rossi's home made steak pie with lots of chips and a bowl of gravy. Fabulous.

 

excellent thread, as a kid i used to be taken to Johnnie's in Mumbles and Cresci's in Skewen, and there was a decent one on sterry road in Gowerton. i went to dick barton's last year on my last trip back, very disappointing.

 

I think Mr D's has gone. Uplands has changed a lot.
