Reviews Overview
Most Liked
One of the standout features of Monni’s Fish Bar is the portion size. Customers often rave about generous servings, especially the cod and chips, which are perfectly crispy and flavorful. Many locals endorse this place as the best chippy in Swansea, and it’s hard to argue against that after tasting the classic dishes they serve. The quick service is another highlight; many diners appreciate how swiftly their meals arrive, even during peak hours. The friendly and interactive staff elevate the experience, ensuring patrons feel welcomed and valued.
Another crowd-pleaser is the variety on the menu, catering to different tastes. Whether it’s a classic fish meal, hearty pies, or vegetarian options, everybody leaves satisfied. Lastly, the casual vibe makes it a great place to unwind with family or friends over a comforting meal.
Most Disliked
While Monni’s Fish Bar has a strong reputation, it’s not without its complaints. Some patrons have reported occasional cleanliness issues, particularly in the restroom. While the fish bar maintains a generally clean environment, a few customers noted that baby changing facilities are lacking, which can be inconvenient for families with young children. Though the staff is usually friendly, there have been isolated accounts of rudeness when handling busy rush hours; some diners felt overlooked during peak times.
Furthermore, the small layout may not accommodate large groups comfortably, leaving some patrons feeling cramped. Also, parking can be tricky during busy periods due to time-limited street spaces nearby, although it is generally free. These small issues highlight that while the overall experience is enjoyable, there are aspects which could use some improvement.

Sorry about the earlier review, sun was all over the screen. As I was saying traditional fish & chips on the coast, beautiful. It went down a treat thank you. That one black hair didn't spoil the food I just took it out and munched the lot. It's great you keep it the old way. I have recommended all because from what I myself had, you cannot go wrong, also. No polystyrene👍👍👍👍👍

The staff here are lovely and love to interact with customers. I was told the locals say it's the best chippy in Swansea - and it certainly did not disappoint even with that expectation! Well worth the walk. I'm back in Manchester now, but if I'm ever back in Swansea, I will be coming here.

Visited a couple weeks ago with my friends, the staff welcomed us in nicely and were very understanding when it came to questions regarding the menu. The service was surprisingly quick and it was a really tasty chippy. I would recommend the fish and chips. Classic and full of flavour.

We visited Monni’s last month and enjoyed a great meal which was decently priced. The chips were particularly great and was commented on by all who were in our group. The fish bar itself is very small and would not be able to accommodate large groups of people but it was well kept and clean. Toilet facilities were ok though there were no baby changing facilities. Staff were very friendly, especially towards the three children. Portion sizes were generous! Parking would have to be on nearby streets which are 1 or 2 hour limits and not a far walk to the fish bar.

We used Deliveroo and the large tasty cod & lots of chips arrived hot and ready to eat. Nice touch it came with vinegar, tartar sauce salt and slice of lemon. Good value for money.

A place with about 10 tables with bench seating. The food was good and service was fast and attentive. I was served by a friendly waitress. The prices are pretty standard compared to the rest of the fish & chips joints I have been to.
