    Worst fish and chip shop in Stevenage !! Got home to find my cod was saturated in oil, the paper it was wrapped in was completely soaked, the meat was about 2 mil thick and just tasted of oil, and the batter was mushy. The chips where saturated in oil too and looked white in colour and tasted of oil like the so called fish, and to top it off we paid for a curry sauce which we didn't even get !!! Do not get food from here waste of money, we will not be going there ever again and would not recommend it to a dog !!!

    Most disgusting meal I've ever had the misfortune to order. 2 pieces of cod wrapped together soaking in grease, any thought of lovely crispy batter completely disappeared when they slid out of the oily paper. We had ordered a large portion of chips, hey what could go wrong there? Well .......... they (the sorry excuse for chips) were so soft and soggy they had compressed themselves into a solid mass. They were unable to be separated, so one lump or two plonked onto the plate. I notice many 1 star reviews on here re this place - can't bring myself to call it a 'restaurant' as that infers they offer something edible. Surprised there are any that get 2 stars or over. You have been warned, eat here at your peril. Also why is this place only taking cash? All sounds and smells very fishy to me.

    A friend started working there so I went to get some chips and visit her. Probably the quickest I've ever been served and got my food. Food was also generally good and I the curry sauce is the best I've had.

    Food can be hit and miss. Fish can be quite greasy and probs one of least favourite items, ironic considering its a fish bar 😂. Overall good though with chicken and sausages and other products.

    Very nice pukka pies and the staff who served me were very kind and friendly and it felt like I'd known them for ages.

    Excellent no frills fish restaurant. Sit in table service or take away. Next to Sainsburys and petrol station + a chemist, plenty of parking.

    Lovely chips and curry sauce but only problem - business is always cash only (just wonder why cash only)

    Really nice "chippy" tea. Staff friendly and efficient

    Due to covid restrictions, takeaway menu only. Covid restrictions are in place. Distancing, hand sanitzer and screens. CASH ONLY. On the same site as Sainsbury's supermarket. Plenty of parking. I had haddock which was freshly cooked to order. Large portions. Friendly staff.

    We have been using this pla(i)ce for many years now. There is a seating area within the shop. Staff are helpful and service is good. Situated next to the Sainsbury's in Magpie Crescent there is a large car park. Food includes the big four - cod, haddock, rock eel and plaice, aswell as whole chicken (when available), pies, sausages and chips. They even have chicken nuggets. We use it as an alternative to McDonald's for chicken nuggets and chips. It saves time on driving to the retail parks. My son says it tastes just as good.
