Exciting news for Barry Island! One of Wales’ top fish and chip shops, Farnham’s, is all set to open its doors on the seafront this weekend. Taking over the iconic spot where Boofy’s once served its legendary fish and chips, Farnham’s promises to bring their award-winning flavours to the Island’s Western Arcade.
Boofy’s was a beloved local fixture, featuring in many episodes of Gavin & Stacey, and locals were sad to see it close after 25 years. However, there’s a silver lining as Farnham’s steps in to continue the tasty legacy. Known for their success in Cowbridge, Boverton, and Fontygary, Farnham’s was also recently named one of the UK’s best fish and chip shops by Fry Magazine.
The team has expressed their long-time dream of opening a shop on Barry Island, and their excitement is infectious. They’re ready to serve up their delicious fish and chips right by the seaside, just in time for you to enjoy a taste in the spring sunshine.
Mark your calendars for Friday, March 20th, when Farnham’s opens its doors. They’ll be serving from 11am to 6pm, Friday through Sunday. Get ready for a new chapter of seaside dining with the same heart and flavour that makes Farnham’s a favourite! 🌊🍟🎉
