The Pilot

How can you wax lyrical about a plate of fish and chips? Visit The Pilot at Penarth and experience their lunchtime fish and chips, served by courteous staff, and I’m sure you’ll agree with me. My wife commented it was the most delicious she’d ever had; well presented with the cod in a tempura batter complimented by ‘Proper Chips.’ The dishes of pureed peas and tartar sauce with capers provided the finishing touch. My mind was cast back to a childhood holiday to Cornwall, and a plate of fish and chips we enjoyed at St Austell. I’ll admit on this occasion, I added a side plate of onion rings. They were mouth watering...and huge.

As we left I also noticed a five hygiene rating on the front door.

Well done the Pilot...

Easy going. Great staff and great views of Cardiff Bay. Half portions served for children with some games available.

Great food and great service in a cosy environment. Really nice place to eat with friends

Fantastic food. Really nice burgers and chips to die for! We do not live locally but will make a point to eat here when we come back to this area.

Food is the best in the area, fresh, full of flavour. Constantly changing menu, generally Reinterpreted pub food with gourmet French style fusion. So refreshing in a culture of terrible pub food. Service impeccable, decent view from one table, great atmosphere and personable helpful staff that give you the perfect experience. Amazing for family or a date. Almost don't want to write this review as I want to keep this place as my secret, but it has been so good consistently thought they definitely deserved praise as that is so rare in the Cardiff area! Keep it up x

Good food, good atmosphere, good staff :)
