I've walked past this place numerous times and today my appetite finally got the better of me. The chippy was clean inside, well presented, lots of food in the hot counters. I ordered a cone of chips to try it out and was pleasantly surprised. The chips were absolutely delicious! Soft inside and crispy on the outside, just the way I like it! Ended up demolishing the lot really quickly 😋 Service was very polite and welcoming. My new favourite chippy in Market Harborough (and possibly Northants!) Will be coming back regularly 😁

Worst chips I have ever had, definitely not fresh cooked, tasted like re heated from day before. Couldn’t get my teeth through them.

Possibly the worst food/takeaway I have had in Market Harborough. They have given us food that is completely inedible. I have included photos to show the shockingly poor quality of it. Don't waste your money.

They are really good chips. The fish was cooked well too. Good portions. The curry sauce was not brilliant. Proper sized battered sausages. Very happy and very full.

Nice chips but the fish was like chewing on a piece of rubber. Friends had similar and theirs was okay so maybe I was just unlucky?

Just stopped for cod and small chips. Chips fine. Batter grim and couldn’t eat what is usually my favourite part of a fish and chip tea. Batter in all likelihood was heavier than the rest of the food. Unfortunately other options in town will now be prioritised

Went in here last night for one portion of fish and chips, nearly £10. The fish was a good size but the batter was thick, doughy and chewy. No crispness at all. Like cutting cardboard. I threw most of it away and won't be going back. Much better alternatives in MH.

The burger meat was thin, tough & overcooked with a strange aftertaste, the cheese wasn’t melted, the bun was incredibly stale, and the salad wasn’t fresh. The chips were ok, but the unfriendly and frankly disinterested woman serving wouldn’t split a portion of chips. Not just eat, just avoid.

£5.99 for a small fish chips and peas now I know it's a small lunchtime special but this was appalling fish finger was more it. Very few chips not even good quality. Very disappointing. Go to kibworth chippy.

We’ve recently moved into Harborough and thought we’d have a treat of fish and chips to save cooking. Quite simply the worst fish and chips we have ever had. We ordered small portions but the fish was tiny, very dry and the batter soggy. It was hard to find amongst the huge quantity of very soggy chips. It seemed as though chips were added to make up for the small fish. I very rarely post a review like this but at £33 you do expect better.

Not very happy with the place. The personal was rude and the food didn't meet the standards. Burgers are precooked and then they heat the Burgers in the microwave. Although the place was very clean and tidy.

Went in for a chip cob this lunchtime. Cold, black chips in a cob that literally crumbled the moment you touched it. Inedible. I threw it in the bin immediately. I can’t believe in such a competitive environment a business cares so little for its products and so much contempt for its customers

Fish and chips while travelling home late from northern England, staff were friendly and helpful, good size portions and the fish was tasty. Just make sure you don't arrive too late on quiet week evenings/nights as they don't fry certain items late, as clearly there's not the local trade then in comparison to Friday/Saturday nights. Makes sense and reduces food waste. Well worth popping in for a great takeaway
