W J Rowe, also known as Rowe's, is an excellent fish and chip shop that offers a wide variety of fish, pies, sausages, and more. You can order mushy peas plain or with mint sauce, which is highly recommended. The staff is friendly and helpful. It can get busy at times, especially on Friday evenings, so choose your moment wisely to visit.

I tried this place for the first time and the fish and chips were really delicious. It was also a good value, with a large cod and chips for £8. I definitely plan on returning.

Yesterday, we had friends over for lunch who requested fish and chips. They wanted large cod and chips as well as rock and chips. My wife and I opted for haddock and chips and standard cod and chips. We recommended Rowe's to them, boasting about how they consistently win awards for the best fish and chips in the region. Our friends agreed that it was the best fish and chips they had ever tasted. We were proud to introduce them to our favorite local fish and chip shop and enjoyed our meal straight from the boxes.

Just went through best fish and chips shops in Herts ranking and got highly disappointed that this place wasn’t there! Can’t count how many shops in UK I have visited, W.J. Rowe is the only one where I enjoy my battered sausages and amazing Irish curry sauce. Honestly, there is nothing better than that curry sauce. Even though I moved out from Stevenage, I know I’ll be visiting the shop whenever I’m around.
