I always recommend fish to anyone who doesn't (yet!) have strong opinions about their shell. Immediately seeing if you misspelled a command because the color changes is a huge benefit if you're not super familiar with the command line. The auto-complete and suggestions are also miles better than bash - they are automatically generated from man pages, so most commands have a usable set of completions. The web-based config lets you easily tweak settings that would otherwise be an incomprehensible soup of PS1=3!@*(!@!@ gobbledygook. Also, it mostly "just works" out of the box, so you really don't have to waste any time setting anything up if you don't really care.
