About

The best fish and chips on the east coast of Anglesey, Finney's in Benllech has been feeding beach visitors and locals for decades with battered fish fried to order and thick-cut chips that actually taste of potato. The mushy peas are made from marrowfat peas, the curry sauce is the proper luminous yellow kind, and the cod — when in season — comes from nearby Welsh waters rather than industrial freezer bags. Join the queue at 12:30 on a summer Saturday and eat on the sea wall with the Blue Flag beach spread below you.

Frequently asked questions

Is Finney's really the best on the east coast?

It consistently comes up as the favourite among east Anglesey regulars. The fish is fresh, the batter is crisp, the chips are proper. Come and judge for yourself.

Is there somewhere to sit and eat?

The sea wall opposite is the classic spot — no seats as such, but the beach wall works perfectly in summer.

How long is the queue?

On summer Saturdays at lunchtime, expect a 10–15 minute wait. It moves quickly. Off-peak visits have no queue.
