“I've been coming here for years. Probably my favourite Stevenage chip shop. Very friendly and efficient service, the place is always spotlessly clean and the food is lovely. Perfect comfort food. I really like the fried chicken quarter. I've had most things off the menu - fish, pies, sausages & no complaints whatsoever. I'm quite fussy but this is just what you want from a proper chippy! Highly recommended!!”

“I've been coming here quite often, and it never disappoints! I almost always have the large fish and chips, as the taste is simply incredible. I've tried the battered sausage and pie, which were also tasty. However, the fish and chips combo is one of the best I've had, and I've travelled to many locations around the world and tried plenty of places near UK coasts, but yet this one is up there. The fish is soft and perfectly cooked, the batter is sumptuous and the chips are tasty and come in great portions. To top it off, the whole family-run team behind the counter are absolutely lovely and always smiling, which just adds the icing on the cake. Can't quite stress it enough, if you're passing by or looking for excellent fish and chips, check this place out! Pictures are from when I got home after taking out a large fish and chips.”

“Chips ok but the curry sauce was far too watery and the worst I’ve ever had.”

Customer Review Summary
Fish and chips draw most of the praise here, with reviewers singling out the large fish and chips, the plaice, the cod and the skate, often describing soft, perfectly cooked fish under light, crispy batter. Chips come in great portions, and one reviewer calls the large chips really large. Close behind, diners mention friendly, smiling service from a family-run team and a place they find spotlessly clean. Battered sausage, pies, a battered burger and the fried chicken quarter also get a nod as tasty. Not every visit lands. One reviewer found the chips a bit undercooked, though they said this could be sorted by asking in advance. Another called the curry sauce far too watery and the worst they had ever had. A separate reviewer who ordered two cod and chips on a Friday was thoroughly unhappy with the meal. Several regulars say they have returned for years, and one reviewer went back after being ignored at a sister shop, then got hot food with crispy batter.
