Evans Plaice - Menu

Ordered for 4 people, large Battered Sausage Chips, 2 portions of 8 Chicken Nuggets and Chips and a regular Cod Chips and a Curry sauce which is delicious I’d heard Evan’s Plaice was good but all good was polished off.

This restaurant is a very friendly spot for a quick lunch while on a long journey. There is free parking available across the road. The fish dishes looked excellent and they are accommodating if you prefer to sit down as well.

Disappointing fish and chips, it really could and should be so much better. Chips mediocre old flavourless potatoes. To make matters worse they water down the vinegar. I visited with a family of five and we all agreed 6 out of 10 minus a point for the watery vinegar!! View menu

What a shame. I've had decent fish chips, pie chips etc... from here several times, but not today. On the plus side, the fish was lovely cooked nicely with crispy batter, but that's where it ended. The chips were greasy and decidedly lukewarm. The curry sauce I ordered turned out to be a pot of mushy peas.

I was disappointed with the food at this restaurant. When I got home, I found that the large cod wasn't actually that large and it was overcooked. The large chips were cold and seemed like they had been sitting out since dinner time. To make matters worse, we were given beans instead of the promised mushy peas. Overall, my dining experience was not enjoyable.

I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The fish and chips were delicious, the portion sizes were generous, and the prices were very reasonable. The establishment was very clean and the staff was lovely. I couldn't ask for more - thank you to the team for their hard work. While I am not local, my dad lives in Rhayader. I will definitely be back to visit again when I return. View menu

I ordered a large tray of chips plus a fish, and I received a bag of chips. I told the person who served me that I ordered a large tray of chips and she said that I didn't, although she did change them shortly after. I know it might seem petty to complain about the container but at the end of the day an order is an order, what if she was a waiter in a top restaurant would she argue with a customer then?

We had a brilliant weekend in Elan Valley. Only exception was our food choice on the Saturday evening. We read the good reviews for Evans Plaice so decided to try the pizzas. They were reasonably expensive so we had high expectations. The quality was poor though. Cheese was way too tangy, there was far too much bread and the sauce for the base was not good. Such a shame we didn’t go for the fish and chips as everyone seemed to be enjoying those!

Because I travel with business North to S Wales I have been using this establishment for many years, if they timing works out in the evenings. I know it has changed hands a few years ago but I have to say, since then it’s definitely gone down hill. It used to be a proper “chippy” with exceptional food, good warm service and a decent place to sit in and enjoy the food from the car. Unfortunately now, the customer service is short and sharp especially from behind the till. There are no more proper knives and forks, or even salt and vinegar on the tables. And worst still u can’t even get a proper pit of tea with ur food anymore. The sit in area is absolutely freezing every time I’ve been (might... View menu
