Was NatalieC423 at Barkers a mag?
The staff was friendly and prepared our order quickly and efficiently. This was the best fish I've had from a fish and chip shop in a long time. It was not too greasy, and was tasty and light. View all feedback.

What Booswam dislikes about Barkers:
I wouldn't even give this restaurant one star. We recently purchased two orders of chips that were not even cooked properly. They were a white mushy blob, so we ended up throwing them away. We had to go out in the pouring rain to find another place to eat. We definitely will not be returning to this restaurant. This was our first and last time dining there. View all feedback.

Best chips in Hemel Hempstead. Lovely staff, highly recommend and not super pricey like the other chip shops in Hemel.

Second bad experience recently. Tonight's batter on the fish was thick and stodgy, the fish flavourless and seems if we were given the left behind scraps as chips.

Had fish and chips. The fish was ok, nothing great, but the chips were soggy and very poor. I now go to Warner's End instead, much better.
