Murphy's in North Hertfordshire

Worst chippie! Food was vile and there was a hair in the chips. Very disappointing as the other reviews looked decent. Definitely would not recommend

Best fish & chips around. Been in Hitchin for over 5 years and Murphy's has always been our go to and has never disappointed. Very good quality and reasonable price. Definitely recommend.

Perfect fish and chips tonight. Really fresh and tasty.

Nice staff and nice batter really good food:

I was in a hurry to get the London train, so I didn't have time to wait for the fish, the queue was reassuringly long. However, the chips were by far the best I've ever had. I've eaten in some of the best restaurants, but nothing I've had before compares to these. Next time, I will allow more time to try the fish, which looked absolutely amazing.

Great fish and chips and brilliant that they do a gluten free version.

Super friendly service, and amazing chips!

The food here is sensational! All fish cooked fresh. The chips are crunchy now soggy! The batter is tasty! Easily the best chippy in Hitchin!

A decent fish & chips place. The portions are rather generous. Although the service could be far quicker.

Great fish and chips. Good value.

IMO the best chips in Hitchin. Bring your own bags, access from the side street. Menu online is accurate. Served gluten free fish on a Friday night with no concerns..

Cheap, cheerful and usually hits the spot! My only feedback would be that their consistency could be a little bit better; on a small handful of occasions the fish was quite oily and very over seasoned.

Rip off! £5.10 for a large chips and curry sauce. Got home and opened the chips and counter 28 chips in the packet!

1st time we've tried this chippy, fish was,nice as were the chips

A solid chippy in hitchin, though sometimes the fish is a little too salty. Overall much more satisfying than the one on hermitage as you get more decent portions as well!

Great food great staff highly recommended

Best fish and chips in Hitchin. Fresh fish, delicious batter crispy chips. 10/10

Excellent. 🍟 very hot. No queue.

Most times is great but occasionally they get it wrong

Enjoyed my fish and chip meal, was worth the wait for fresh tasty food

Everything cooked fresh! Very nice!

Great fresh fish and chips, not oily cannot fault

Fantastic, the best fish 'n chips anywhere. Highly recommended.

Great fish and chips last weekend, generous portions.

Never had a bad experience at Murphy’s, fantastic fish and chips!

Never disappointed when I go here & good choice of menu

Had some lovely fish and chips from there and the service was excellent. 👍

Great old school fish and chips

My favourite chip shop. Great chips, non-greasy fish. Curry sauce nice and spicy. yum

Fish and chips take away of choice.

Very disappointed. Food was not good. Chips were greasy and stuck to the paper, needed to be put in a tray when wrapped. The batter on the fish was very soggy. Also how hard is it to write a C for cod or a H for haddock on the wrapper.

Best in town, with lovely friendly staff.

Lovely fish and chips, good price, nice staff, would be perfect if they took card payments

Love the place. Great food for good prices. Staff are lovely and the restaurant part has a lovely welcoming calm atmosphere. All round a great place

Sorry Murphy's but you are now just a shadow of what you used to be. Quite overpriced. Looks more like a Chinese restaurant than a chip shop. Will say though the cheesy chips I had where pretty good.

Poor service and food And no card facilities

Good friendly service and tasty food

Lovely food and friendly people

Two weeks ago first time I bought chips here! Very tasty, crispy & fresh! Couldn’t resist went again today! I can give the marks for Chips 100% in every aspects!!

Murphys Fish and Chip shop is the Best in Hitchin me and my Mum have delicious food there 😃

Excellent fish and chips. Try the fish in rice flour instead of batter, if your not good with dairy.

The best chips in town at the moment....

Basic surroundings but great fish and chips

Very good and tasty fresh cooked fish &chips.

Friendly very very busy fresh food

First visit here today for chips while waiting for the wife to finish shopping. Chips were excellent... crispy and tasty...will definately visit again 10/10

Had cod and chips x 4 last night and it was not good. Fish was dry and oil was clearly old with a bad after taste. It had been obviously been in the warming display for a long time. Shame as always has been so good in the past - please raise the standards and make them great again! Disappointed!!

best fish and chips in UK, hands down

Great food and service, the option of rice flour battery gives you a lighter choice

Great fish and chips from a traditional chippy. I've had it a few times now and have yet to be disappointed.

I have been going to Murphy's with my family for seven years. It is consistently excellent and they have the best chips ever. They were voted Best Chips in 2014 in Hertfordshire and are always perfect (even cooked to your order - extra crisp etc))and I have no idea why one of the reviews says otherwise. I have never seen them on an off day. The food and the staff are excellent. I've moved to another part of the country but still visit when I can. If you eat there (they have a small sit down restaurant) you'll be in for a treat. Try the rice flour coating instead of batter for a healthy and tasty change.

Very greasy chips and oil that fish was fried in smelled old. I was expecting better given the other reviews and the award in 2014. Maybe an off night but won't be back in a hurry.

Best F&C shop I've been to in Hitchin. Great selection of fish and the haddock is outstanding. Top chippy!!!

Perhaps I just had a bad experience, but under cooked fish batter to the point of inedible - tasted of old cardboard. Chips were average.

Super service and brilliant quality. Thank you
