Popped in earlier to get a large portion of Fish and Chips....gone up to £4.60....what got me was it was not a large portion, it was literally the last few scoops left, not a large portion, when I am paying nearly a fiver I expect a full portion....oh and the server at the till was surly....no please of thank you....won't be going back....I expect value for money and polite service not surly service

£9.40 for 2 jumbo sausage and 1 portion of medium chips seemed a bit pricey. Quick service though and friendly staff hence the 3 stars

We decided on a chippy lunch before heading for T20 cricket in Chelmsford, the first time we have used Mr. Chips at lunchtime. It was just as good as the occasional evening treat, freshly cooked and great service.

Our local chip shop has always given us great food. They sell burgers/fried chicken plus the usual suspects. The wife usually gets plaice which is always cooked fresh. It's worth the small wait as it's not sitting under the heat lamp. The only thing I wish they sold is a kebab. They don't open on Mondays. There is a small car park round the back that has 2hrs free parking. The shop is in a small parade which has a small convenience shop, a boots chemist and a hair dresser's.

Ordered by phone for 12 people, was told a time to collect and one minute after our arrival it was ready for collection. Ordered various food but the burgers were not standard requests, some with mayo some without etc, not only was each burger hot tasty and exactly as requested but they wrote the contents of each burger on the lid which was so helpful when dishing up. The plaice was ginormous! We have recently moved here this will definitely be our local chippy.

My family like this place, so we take the opportunity to eat from there from time to time as we do not live in the area. The staff are friendly and helpful as you would hope. The food is cooked well consistently, but (There's always a 'but') the chip potion is a little small and could be increased more. The place always seem to have people there, so I would assume the other customers have the same opinion rather than treat it as a convenience.

Staying with family locally and decided we'd have fish and chips from their local takeaway. This place deserves a mention because of its exceptional quality of fish and cooking.Firstly, not all fishmongers offer skate/ray, but they do it to order so, like all of their fish, it was fresh, not oily and perfectly cooked, similarly their chips did not disappoint. Top this all off with speedy and friendly service, and this stands out as a fish 'n chip shop in the old style. If you're in the area, it is well worth a visit.

After this shop changed hands a couple of years ago, we stopped going there as we felt it had taken a downward turn. However, we went back in March as we'd heard it had changed hands again and we are really glad we did. The fish and chips were lovely, really crispy, tasty and most importantly cooked in good quality, clean oil. We'll definitely go back and if like us you gave up on this place, i'd say its worth giving it another try.

Recently organised a charity quiz night in Maldon Essex, Fish & chips and a great quiz goes down very well with the locals and attracted over 90 people. Mr Chips were asked to cater even though the quiz was on a Friday evening they came up trumps and produced very good fish & chips and chicken if preferred. The price was right, and the food & service arranging the package. We had nothing but praise for the food, and will use Mr Chips again for the next function.

We have been using Mr Chips for a number of years, the original owner John was from Yorkshire and like most Northern fish & chips, they were better than the fish & chips in the South. However, John moved on and we found the food still good, but another change did result in a change of standard with the food for a while. Sometimes these reviews can be misleading but what I would say now is that we now have no complaints with the food and service which revolves around the established staff from Johns days. Why not try MR CHIPS again I dont think you will be disappointed. ENJOY.

Was always happy to drive past other places to get to Mr Chips, but I revisited it this evening after more than 18 moths away and will never go back again. The rock was dark brown, tough and tasteless and the chips were chewy. Most of the food went in the bin so a total waste of £6.90 for the smallest available portions. To be avoided.

Bought fish and chips there tonight, incredibly disappointed. I asked to salt and vinegar my own chips to which they acknowledged, asked this twice yet the woman handed me my pre salted and vinegar chips, I wanted onion vinegar and they did not give me the chance. Told me I could put it on top of the vinegar they’d already put on. She was rude and did not offer me a new portion instead she looked at me as though I was making a fuss and said rudely ‘I only put a bit on’, when my boyfriend watched her put a sizeable amount on.

We have lived in HP for nearly 50 years and used to go to Mr Chips quite often. But then the chips became indigestible, although the fish wasn't too bad, but that made us go to the chip shop in Boreham. We tried Mr Chips again last week, and I have to say that they were really enjoyable. We will definitely go there more often, but Boreham chip shop has take away Chinese, so we will continue going there for that I would recommend Mr Chips, although it's not a cheap meal any more, is it!

This takeaway changed hands again in this New Year (2018). I wrote a review in June 2016 praising the food and service. I have been using Mr Chips for around 22 years but my recent visit 2 weeks ago was my last. My cod looked and tasted like it was leftover from the day before and was yellow shrivelled and dry (not white, super fresh with a slightly sticky texture and chunky plump flakes of fish as usual) and the batter thin, dry and made my tummy gurgle!. There was miserable looking chap frying and I was told by the young woman serving ( I had to squeeze a conversation out) that he was the new owner and the previous owners( after John) had gone back to Devon. That was my last ever visit. What a shame.I actually feel very sad about it. So long Mr Chips it was nice knowing you.

Really needs a better method of dealing with orders; silly women charged me £15 for 2 portions of chips and 8 nuggets... I ordered "Nugget & Chips 3 Times, please", got a mere half of that for the full price. So even after 10 years they are still getting it wrong. Avoid if you wan't your orders to be correct. Food is hot though, I'll give them that; nothing else.

Customer service is good within the Hook, I always find myself disappointed whenever I receive food from them. When ordering a portion of cheesy chips typically they will wrap the portion in the paper which gets stuck on the chips. I find that their portion sizes are on the smaller size, especially when the cost is so high for ordering from them. The food itself is good which is the only redeeming quality, otherwise I would struggle to rate this business anything more than a 2*. The main feedback I'd pass onto the owner of this establishment is to review both their portion sizes and the packaging of the food.

Do not recommend visiting the sun at all! I went for Saturday lunch and ordered the chicken Caesar salad off the menu. When my dish came out, the chicken was undercooked and pink in the middle! I bought this attention to the waiter who kindly said she would remove it and make the kitchen aware. Following this, someone who I’m assuming was the manager come out and said to me that the kitchen had temperature checked the chicken and it would have been safe to eat, the chicken was visibly pink in the middle! They took it off the bill however I feel the way the manager handled the situation made this so much worse. I will not be visiting again.
