Michaels Golden Chippy in Daventry

I have been coming here for the last few months all i can say is the fish and chips is amazing crispy on the outside and juicy and soft on the inside, not dry like some of the shops. Ive also tried the chicken kebab and the taste is 10/10. Great food service and the new owners are so welcoming and friendly and really take time to make you feel welcome! Thank you for my supper will definitely be back again next week. Keep up the great work 😊

The best chippy ever! The service is amazing, the new owners have brought some lovely new additions to the classic chippy menu with tasty Indian dishes but still keeping the classic authentic chippy vibe at heart! Highly recommend the Jacky Ps, ultimate comfort food. Top restaurant, this is a must try spot ❤️

Had a meal here, last week, amazing food, great atmosphere, the owners are very welcoming, perfect portion sizes and the whole place is clean and tidy, will definitely be back here soon :)

Just tried Michael’s for the first time since the new takeover, and it was wonderful! I ordered the chicken, rice, and salad, and everything was cooked perfectly. It's great to see some new items on the menu, and the staff were super friendly and polite ❤️ I'll definitely be back again 👊🏾.

It was appalling. We ordered chicken salad £8 it was greasy horrible 2 donner meat chips . Chips were old and cold donner meat salty uneadible The price was unbelievable Never again

Was hoping under new management they could maintain the quality. Unfortunately tonight, the chips were over cooked, poor quality and cold. Savoly was hard over cooked. I hope it’s just a blip and it improves otherwise we will have to go else where. Shame…. Was always excellent.

Always spotless, always friendly, always good

Not sure what’s gone wrong but this used to be the best chippy around. Last 2 times we’ve been given stale microwaved chips and the staff couldn’t have given a toss. Genuinely worst chips I’ve tasted. Such a shame.

6 quid for a bag of chips and a can of diet coke... Let's leave it there shall we

Husband bought home 2 portions of chips, 3 sausages. 2 cans of pop and a curry sauce £20! Chips were hard and not great, curry sauce not as good as previously. £20! Won’t be going back,

£13 plus for 2 pues and 2 chips

Food was waiting for me more or less good service

Tried this place twice. Both times chips were bloody awful! Can honestly say it's obvious they reheat there chips which isn't great! The curry sauce wasn't real curry sauce.. the curry sauce was corn flower seasoning and some water. Could taste the flour in the sauce. Safe to say thawlers in the square is the better option!!

Michael's Golden Chippie's special salads are the best!

Best one in Daventry thanks guys

Probably the best chip shop in Northamptonshire. Crispy batter, fluffy golden chips, tasty peas and curry sauce that’s perfect. Not sure what more you can want from an absolutely perfect chip shop, seating, plenty of parking outside, easy access and some of the most welcoming staff you could ever ask to serve you. If it’s not available they will soon have it sorted for you, great menu with lots of choice and the kebab’s looked amazing so maybe one for our next visit!

Amazing chips and banging kebab all cooked right in front of you. What's not to love?

The best doner kebab I've ever had, and wonderful staff. I will have to return for more, thank you!

I haven’t been to Michael’s Golden Chippie since before the pandemic. But I grew up in Daventry, and my family visited this chip shop since I was a child. I was in the neighbourhood yesterday and it was great to see they are still open and trading post pandemic. I enjoyed a battered jumbo sausage, and devoured a 1/2lb burger and chips. The battered sausage was fresh, juicy but not too watery, and the batter was evenly coating the sausage and evenly cooked. The chips were fluffy and they have always had the beautiful consistency of almost melting in your mouth. Michaels always have had the best chips I have ever tried…. And I’ve tried a lot. The burger was amazing and brought back memories. What I’ve always loved about the burgers at Michael’s, is the feeling that mum could have made it with love for you. And that is what is great about this place. The mum and dad who ran this chippie may have retired, but their sons are there, continuing the tradition. This business has a love of the food they produce, they care about their customers, and are proud of their community. It truly is a hub and when I went in yesterday, even after 5-years nearly, it was great to be recognised and welcomed HOME.

A smashing chippy, where the lovely staff offer friendly cheerful service, bringing the best fish & chips in Daventry town. Highly recommended. This long established family run local establishment also has a wide range of other good value, great tasting dishes from which to choose, lovingly prepared using top quality, fresh ingredients. Since discovering their fish suppers when moving in on Headlands, Michael's has remained a firm favourite with me.

Clean premises. Friendly staff. Excellent food quality. Often very busy therefore sometimes there's a bit of a wait. No hesitation to recommend it.

Burger tasted like processed meat. Very plain, tasted cheap. Meat in kebab was dry. Very disappointed.

Expensive, for what was poor quality food. The service was fine and so to was the atmosphere, typical for a takeaway.

Anemic looking chips, bland mushy peas, very greasy kebab. The dog enjoyed it though. First and last time from here, can't beat sheaf St chippy.

Lovely menu and friendly staff, been going here for years, when local. Favourite is the BBQ Chicken special. Though tonight had old favorite fish and chips which my mum and myself enjoyed 😋

Loverly fish and chips and Amazing curry sauce. All the whole family really enjoyed there meals

Best chippy in daventry, amazing staff. Fast delivery service too.

Good atmosphere and food is amazing

First time in Daventry found the best Chippie ever staff super friendly and accommodating to my needs. Fresh and fat-free food I recommend it to anyone, top price and quality. You will fall in love with these amazing people. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Quality geeza lovely family run company with food to die for!

Great service, very clean and good food.lots of different meals

Nice treat for mid-week, great food

Best chippy ever! I don't live in Daventry but everytime I visit this is my first stop!

Best fish and chips in Daventry.

Would have liked to give this higher stars but was left disappointed with the kebab I bought the pitta was not cooked properly maybe not long enough even, it was doughy and bread-like on the top the bottom was saturated in grease the meat was soft and chewy like almost on the mush side little to no taste that you expect from the meat felt wrong eating it too be honest so I didn't the salad however was good fresh clean tasty just a shame the rest I can't say the same about not sure I would return ....

Always had great food from here but the last one I ordered was disgusting had more bits of batter and black eyes in the chips, fish was that greasy couldn't taste anything apart from the grease, battered sausage had hardly any batter and kebab had no salad really disappointed, unsure whether I'll order again now ☹

very very greasy chips! and full of eyes ,

brilliant food at a great price, very friendly staff

lovely tasty cod fresh crispy batter , the large haddock was indeed large and also tasty , the chips were also cooked to perfection .

Great food, great service and friendly staff

Excellent kebab ..fresh crispy salad . can't beat a local favourite x

Good chips, crispy fish and tasty pukka pies. Helpful staff.

No doubt the best chippy in Dav. Excellent staff and brilliant food. Highly recommend

I get chips everywhere but Michael's are the best in the land. Chicken curry and rice is the best as well

Excellent service and very delicious food 👌😋👏

Best chippy in daventry all the staff are great and all ways welcoming great food and great service thank you all

Very polite and helpful on phone when told them my situation and delivered to me in my truck on industrial estate, as on a night out....lovely food and hot.......thanks...appreciated 😀👍👍

Good chip shop have used for years. Good guys that own it and friendly staff.

Great chippy, an institution in the town!

It be nice when they stop hanging up when trying to place a order

Amazing!! Ruby wraps a good bag of chips.

My fella got told about this place by a friend of his, so we thought we'll give it a shot, and boi we was over the moon, he had fish and chips and i had the steak kebab we was blown away by the taste of the kebab and the fish, wel be going again without a doubt to try something different, well done guys and gals,

Most best food I would definitely recommend the family run fish and chip shop nice and friendly and very helpful

Still the best after all the years they have been there 👍

A 1 in every way good staff good quality good portions what more do you want

Definitely the best chippy in Daventry, if not perfect. I was a little disappointed last time I went that I waited a long time for my order, then got home to find out the salt and vinegar I'd asked for hadn't been added to my chips and the gravy I'd paid for was missing from my order. Chicken isn't great, but the fish and chips are the best you'll get for miles around. They've also done us great deals in the past on bulk ordering for around 50 people and really delivering out of their way.

Never let me down with quality and taste. Just picked up another meal for the family, it travelled 8 miles and was still absolutely spot on! The girlfriends burger.. amazing, the kids homemade chicken curry and rice... amazing, and my fillet chicken meat and chips with salad and hot sauce.... amazing! I have been going here for over 10 years. Top service, always made to feel welcome. Tip: Modify your king size hot dog with some extras!

Always lovely food and great service.

We've been going to Michael's for years, hands down the best takeaway in Daventry, best chippy around, food is always the freshest and best quality, fantastic menu and staff

Great traditional fish and chips. Friendly efficient service. This is a well loved business in this local area and you won't find better fish and chips anywhere.

Nice set up , but fish and chips is a personal thing, not the best I've had.

Lovley family run chip shop. Food lovely tasty.

Great food, but shocked to say the least, that 6 members of staff behind the counter at one time, not one was wearing a mask. Sorry to say, the food is the best, but I will not be visiting again during these times. Another localish chippy were issued fines for not wearing a mask. Really should address this.

First time visiting as not from the area, the best chippy I have had, the food is as faultless. very quick service and polite staff. Will definitely visit again!!!!

Got the plaice in a bread roll and it was incredibly oily. The bottom half was disgusting and it was completely soaked with dark oil and the fish, while crunchy, had pockets of oil in the batter.

friendly good size portions, cooked fresh, eat in or takeaway. Fabulous variety of food all cooked on premises, great takeaway service, good parking

10 out of 10. Perfectly cooked fish and chips.

I went there early evening and there was no queue so was served very fast. Chip portions are very tasty and generous in size. Fish was also proper 'fish' you would expect from Fish & Chips shop.

Special chicken salad was as lovely as always and fresh! The chips were perfect too. Lovely family run chip shop. Thank you, keep up the good work guys. 👍🏼

Great food, friendly staff, great prices. Happy days.

Delivery order very good quick delivery. Food well cooked hot and delicious. Great value for money excellent attentive staff. Defo recommend and order again.

Fabulous chip shop well worth a visit.

Staff don’t wear masks cooking and serving. I would expect with way things are that staff preparing food should be wearing a mask and gloves. Very little protection to customers from staff. Won’t be going again.

I travel 4 miles just to have there fish and chips even though I have a chip shop in my village, best fish and chips around

Friendly service. Double checked order with us. Confirmed again each item as they put it in the bag. fish was cooked fresh to order.

Always good fresh food and a friendly welcome from the staff, this is a family run business and I have been going here since the parents, who are now retired, were running it 👍

Cant fault the place. Best chip shop in daventry by a country mile. Excellent food, friendly staff, quick service. And they deliver, which is rare. Keep up the excellent work guys.

Came in drenched as I work door to door. The staff were very obliging, allowed me to sit in for a coffee to warm up (even with the pandemic!) Great service and very friendly people. Good food on top of that too. Can't lose here! 😍😍😍

Food is always hot and served with a smile! Very fussy on where my kebabs come from and love the kebabs from here!

Fantastic chips and wonderful staff. Highly recommend. 🙂

Absolutely Scrummy as usual! With a delivery 💜..See you soon, you lot... Thanks from Annie and Roscoe xxxxxx

Excellent fish and chips. Our first one since lockdown. Never had a bad meal. Staff really friendly.

Use this chippy about once a month and am always surprised by the quality of the food. would recommend to anyone.

Friendly staff, second generation family business who know what they are doing.

Awful fish and chips Cooked fresh ? Absolute rubbish. Walked in ordered fish and chips for 2 and was back out the door in less than 2 minutes. Batter was so thick and tasted awful. Chips awful. Will never return

Banging food. lots of choice. friendly and well organised. Guaranteed you'll go back

If you going change that much for fish and chips make shore not yesterday chips and not all black vile

Great chip shop. Been going here since I was a kid and wouldn't go anywhere else in town. They are always welcoming and friendly.

As the other local fish and chip shop has gone down hill, Michaels Golden Chippy continues to improve. Great value from a family business offer very good old fashion fish and chips. Well done.

Michaels chippy makes the best burgers. Nothing more to say really simply the best

Wonderful friendly staff and the best fish and chip shop in Daventry.

Great place to eat, Pep is a star!

So welcoming. And the food was perfectly cooked. Thank you.

Children enjoyed fish, chips & mushy peas while we ate chicken & mushroom salad excellent

Highly recommended, Excellent food and service.

I've travelled the world and lived abroad; I've eaten all sorts of cuisine from Philly cheese steaks in Philly, to deep fried spiders in Laos. But I have to say, that in my humble opinion, the homeliest food and best service has to be "Michaels Golden Chippy" in Daventry.

Fantastic range of food Very friendly staff. Higher recommend

Very friendly staff ; topped off by great selection of good food .

Very average Chip Shop with extremely pleasant staff. They don't use Sarsons vinegar, in fact the vinegar seemed diluted. Ketchup is not Heinz. A chip shop is only as good as it's condiments. In his response to my review, the owner openly admits diluting the vinegar. When you buy a bottle of Sarsons at the Supermarket you don't dilute it, so why should you at a chip shop, are they different chips? Also, why charge for sachets of Ketchup, sounds like penny pinching, which is bad business practice. Will not return to this place.
