From Our Family to Yours, Since 1988
Three generations behind the fryer
J-Henry's Fish and Chips has been frying at 5 Upper Northam Road, Hedge End, since 1988 — 37 years and counting. It's run by the Lee family, who've kept the recipe, the care and the queue out the door going ever since.
What started as one family's chip shop has grown into a Hedge End institution: the kind of place where regulars are greeted by name and the £6.99 fish and chips deal runs every single day. Same shopfront, same commitment to frying everything fresh to order — nothing sat waiting under a heat lamp.
That consistency is exactly what's earned J-Henry's national recognition — and it's why Hedge End keeps coming back.
A Good Food Award Gold Seal, and the press to match
J-Henry's has been formally recognised by the Good Food Awards, climbing from a Blue Ribbon to the 2025/26 Gold Seal for Fish & Chips — and picked up coverage in the national press, including The Sun and the Daily Mail, along the way.
