So we returned here after a year (Fish Frys are only available during Lent) to get what we thought would be a decent fish fry, boy, were we disappointed. The beer battered haddock was good, and if it were the only thing we were eating, this review would be better. The French fries used to be fresh, cut, and delicious, but this time, it seemed like they were undercooked, raw, or maybe frozen. They weren't crispy, almost like they were baked in the oven, but certainly not cooked right. We were told that we had a choice of macaroni or potato salad, so we got one of each. What we received was pasta salad drenched in dressing...blah! A far cry from Mac salad. Potato salad was container type and way to al dente literally had a crunch to it. Coleslaw was OK. It had a nice taste. You also get a roll with butter. They used to have baked potatoes, which was a great option, but they discontinued them. So, these 2 dinners cost $38. We know we can get much better sides with our dinner elsewhere. It's not just about the fish guys and gals. Your redeeming grace was that your fish was good. We probably won't return here. there are too many other options that are way better.

Kept seeing posts about their food had to give it a try. My little family went there tonight for one of the best fish fry’s I’ve had. We also got an order of the most crunchy fried pickles. The food is made from scratch and worth every penny. Definitely highly recommend and we’ll be back for more.
