100% perfect fish, chips & mushy peas!!
Pure white flaky cod in a light, crispy batter with a generous portion of quality chips and HOT mushy peas 😋
Having grown up in a small fishing village in the 1970’s, I’ve got 50 years of experience of what makes the perfect fish supper and these were among the best.
I was visiting friends in Hitchin who recommended Polcaro’s to me and I’m glad they did.
It was clearly evident that the owner of this family-run business takes great pride in his shop as it was immaculately clean as were the staff uniforms.

This little place is one of those hidden gems. Really good fish and chips, the way it should be done, cooked fresh and served hot.

Attended yesterday, busy at 1830 hours. Hard to park, the customer service was friendly I had fish, chips, and curry sauce. It was ok well cooked the chips were nice.
The fish was not bad, a bit pricy but I get it as nothing is chip. The service was fast.
The kitchen area looked clean.

Lived by the sea all my life, so I know what good fish and chips are. Great fish and chips and not greasy at all plus fast, friendly service. Fish wasn't the freshest and portion sizes are a bit small. There is a lack of fish and chip shops in the area, so it's good that this one does a half decent meal. Personally I would lose the cardboard trays and dish out more chips.

By far the best quality and most tasty fish and chips in Hitchin - though a little pricey, but you know what you’re getting and they’re always consistent! For me curry sauce and mushy peas is also very important and not many places south of the Midlands usually do a good job of these, but Polcaro’s is pretty decent with these - though portion sizes could be more generous.

Simply the best fish and chips in the area. We would go out of our way to come here for our fish and chips. Add to that the staff and owner who are so welcoming and friendly. Never had a bad experience and really couldn't recommend them highly enough

Cooked to order..... I have had both cod and haddock here. Fish was very fresh, boneless, and cooked to order. Lovely crispy chips too. No excess oil on the paper and not at all greasy tasting. We will be returning. Great value for money.

It has the added bonus of a free car park directly behind the shop.

Excellent fish and chips, hits the spot every time. On the pricier side, but I suppose you get what you pay for!

EDIT: Now accept NFC payments and we'll deserving of 4 stars.
Want to give it 3.5 stars. I've been going here for around 28 years and not much has changed in that time! Fish and chips are good, chicken bites are surprisingly excellent. Like any chippy, the food is best when it's busy, so Friday night is a good option or when they open on a Saturday.
They used to only accept cash and I said I'd up them a star for cash payments so that's what I've done as they now accept cash and NFC.

Haven’t had fish and chips for ages, popped in on the way home. Have to say, was THE BEST fish and chips I have had the pleasure of eating in years! The haddock was perfectly cooked, batter light and crispy accompanied with chips also just right. Last time I enjoyed such standards was the OLD Taylors in Baldock when it was still family run.... Would recommend! Silvio, the owner, has got it right I'd say!

Thank you for changing to recyclable, non plastic chip trays. They do the job just as well and are a great move forward. Food, as always, was good too.
