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.

What’s it got to do with the price of fish? 🐟 Actually, quite a lot! We have always been about more than just great food; we’re about our local community. To keep serving you the quality you love while staying true to our values, we need to talk openly about why our prices are changing. The cost of cod has hit record highs. Due to a 200% surge in wholesale prices over the last two years, driven by massive quota cuts and global shortages the 45lb box of fish that cost us £110 now costs up to £330.

We do things differently because we believe in giving back:

Convenience for You: We aren’t a cash-only business. We accept all major cards and contactless payments because we want to make life easier for you.

Investing in Our Youth: Unlike shops that only employ their own family members, we open our doors to the whole community. We are proud to employ your sons, your daughters, and your neighbours, providing vital first jobs and local opportunities.

Ethical Employment: We’ve increased wages to ensure our team can support their own families during this cost-of-living crisis. When you buy from us, you’re keeping local people in jobs and supporting a business that cares about everyone’s future.

We want to keep the tradition of a local fish & chip shop alive for everyone and here’s how we’re working hard to make things affordable for you:

The “Local” Alternative: Try our fresh Hake or Po***ck, they’re just as tasty, more sustainable, and much lighter on your wallet.

Kids & Senior Portions: New size-appropriate meals, so you only pay for what you need.

Family Value Deals: Keep an eye out for our mid-week bundles and offers.

We’re more than a chip-shop; we’re local, an intrinsic part of the fabric of your community.

Thank you for sticking with us, supporting local jobs, and understanding that the “price of fish” is about keeping our entire community thriving.
