Fintans Fish & Chip Co

Fintans Fish & Chip Co Established 1989. More Than Just Fish & Chips, available in Whitchurch, Pentwyn & Llanishen. A tale buried in Celtic folklore.

The story tells of a fish named Fintan, said to be wiser than man. It was said that eating Fintan would grant all the knowledge in the world, and so this became the genesis for a brand story that we dubbed ‘there’s wisdom in the fish’:

Our story tells of Fintan, an ordinary little fish who ate a hazelnut which had fallen into the Well of Wisdom from the surrounding hazel trees. In doing so, Finta

n gained all the world’s knowledge. It was said that the first person to eat our learn’ed friend would, in turn, gain this knowledge. One day, after years of trying, a poet named Finn Eces caught poor Fintan and handed him to his young companion Fionn for safe keeping. Unable to resist, Fionn began to cook the fish, turning it over and over, but alas, touching its scaley hide to inspect whether it was cooked he burnt his thumb, instinctively sucking on his scolded digit to ease the pain. Little did Fionn know that all of Fintan’s wisdom had been concentrated into that one little drop of fat.

“When you think of your chip shop order you think fish & chips, curry sauce and maybe a cheeky battered sausage but what about hot honey chicken and loaded chips?! 🤔

Fintan’s new menu is full of hot honey and I can’t get enough of it - if you ever needed a reason to change up your chippy order then this is it!🤩

We tried the:

🍔 Hot Honey Chicken & Halloumi Burger
🍯 Hot Honey Chicken Strips
🍟 Spicy BBQ Chicken Loaded Fries
🇮🇪 Chips and Irish Curry Sauce
🫓 Hot Honey Chicken Wrap
🍫 Deep Fried Mars Bar

This was also our first time trying a deep fried Mars bar and despite wanting to not like it, I loved it - think a crispy Mars inspired doughnut.” 🤤
