The food was great - at least for this ex pat southern boy who grew up in 1950s Florida, and doesn't find much southern fare in California. The fantastic service came from some wonderful ladies who acted like they knew us all of our lives, and couldn't do enough to ensure we enjoyed our drop in for dinner while traveling through the area. The ambiance: Florida all the way. A totally enjoyable experience was had by the six of us, with promises to someday return. I hope you visit Bradley's if you are a anywhere near for an enjoyable southern experience: food, service and ambience. read more

This is our first time being back at Bradley since they moved. And I have to say I'm not sure why we waited so long to go. The service and the food were both very good. As soon as you walk in the door, you can smell the goodness of all the food and you're greeted with warm smiles. I love how they've decorated the new place. It's very cute. It's all about country living, fishing hunting and etc. My husband had the fish platter and he said it was the best that he had had in a long time. I had the the blackened mahi and it was perfect. The seasoning was spot on and it was moist and delicious. The service was great Someone was always coming to make sure that our cups were full and if we needed anything they would bring it. Their menu has changed and they have a little bit more on there which is great. They have daily specials and the prices are very reasonable, especially for what you get. It's definitely going into our rotation of places to eat. Still trying to figure out why we waited so long to go. Highly recommend going to Bradley's. I'm so upset and mad at myself that I forgot to take pictures. But I can guarantee you next time I will. read more

Cozy family vibes. None of us had ever tried gator tail before so we got that, the blackened fish, crab cakes, and I can't remember what my husband got but here's a photo of it :D Loved the veggie soup and the green beans. read more

Stopped in today for the Chicken & Dumplings lunch special. This was my first time at the new location. It looks fantastic inside and it's super neat and clean. The service was friendly and fast. Everything tasted great. Good ole southern home style food. Generous portions. I couldn't finish mine so it went home for supper. I'll definitely be back to try other specials. read more

Bradley’s Seafood and Steak - Chicken & Dumplings, hush puppies, collard greens, fried okra - Seafood Near Me - Palatka, Florida

This place moved to a new location a while back. Lots of locals go here. The food is diner type taste and flavor. Priced a bit high but all prices are getting out of control. If you want regular home cooking, this is a good place. They have specials and offer a lot of choices over many types of food. It gets full on weekends especially. Go here, have a normal okay meal, and you will be full. read more

January 28 2026 higher prices on menus from what is pictured on Yelp We had a Wednesday pork lunch special and the fried shrimp lunch. Fried green tomatoes were excellent, greens were just right, fried corn nuggets were sweet and creamy. read more

Great food and friendly service. Home town relaxed atmosphere. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Food is phenomenal. Service was prompt, kind and courteous answered any questions that we had the place is clean very satisfied and the gator tail is awesome. read more

Whenever we're camping in the area we make it a point to eat at Bradley's. The crab legs are some of the best I've ever had and never fail to disappoint. Service is always 5 star as some of these ladies have been here for years. Ambiance is good old fashioned Florida fish house. read more

So I had envisioned something completely different when I saw "Steak & Seafood", ie something fancy and spendy. Nope-not here! This place was relaxed, local restaurants that feeds lots of people here in Palatka! Like your local Mom & Pop restaurant that serves up some Southern food! read more

Great hometown steak and seafood place. And the wait staff are kind-hearted, competent, and personable. Love their alligator, steaks, and fried shrimp! read more

Great food ! Excellent service ! Very homegrown atmosphere ! Very friendly all the way around ! The food is of great quality with a reasonable price ! read more

Doesn't look like much as you drive by but we'll worth the stop! Don't expect anything fancy, this is a local hole in the wall joint, but the food and service will not disappoint SERVICE was excellent. Everyone is very kind and welcoming. PRICE very reasonable. 12oz prime rib was $21. 8oz NY strip was $17. Both come with 2 sides. We were also offered a complimentary bowl of soup prior to our meal which was vegetable soups that night. Sooo good! Dessert was $4, and the coffee was complimentary as well. QUALITY of the food was on point! The meet tender and tasty, prime rib is usually sold out fast from what we've been told by others, so I was lucky to get it. The NY strip was the perfect size and tasty. read more

The bathrooms are really clean! Why is that important in a review? How many times have you wondered about the condition of the kitchen when you viewed the mess in the bathroom? Antony Bourdain assured us there is a correlation. The food at Bradleys is consistently good old southern style fare. Fried, and well prepared. If you want healthy, organic, farm to table you might find what you seek in St. Augustine or Deland but not here in Palatka. Our fried flounder,squash casserole, fried green tomatoes were outstanding but the hoe cake was mediocre. I guess the regular hoe was out sick. Seriously we enjoyed most everything. The decor also is southern swamp friendly. Deer, bobcat, alligator, and big bass cover the walls as well as nicely hand painted murals. That's how they roll at Bradleys If you don't .... roll on by. read more

This restaurant is very popular with the locals and my favorite place to eat especially on the all you can eat shrimp or fried fish night Better come early or expect to stand in line but the wait is worth it. The food is awesome. The service is great and at prices you just can't beat. read more

Excellent food family loves coming here. The fish and wings are amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

While visiting the O.P. area this restaurant was recommended to us and we were torn between Bradley's or a restaurant that was closer to Fleming Island where we were staying - The drive was not bad and it really was not an issue once we ate at Bradley's! For us who loved eating at the O.P. St John's Seafood and still haven't recovered from them closing- this was a real wonderful find. Mel our server couldn't have been more kind and funny And it added to our dining experience - We don't really like fancy surprises in our food and Bradley's was just simply and full of flavor, we got their shrimp and their hush puppies were the best we've had in awhile - No jalapeños!!! The shrimp tasted fresh and just like shrimp! We were going to return the next evening to have dinner at Bradley's unfortunately we ended up getting an early start back home. The staff were the ambiance at Bradley's! Thank you all for such a nice experience! read more

Outstanding food and service! We were waited on by Mel, she was absolutely wonderful!!! The all you can eat shrimp was incredible, can't get that anywhere for the price and taste. Next time in Florida we will definitely make the trip down to Palatka for your food. read more

First time here. My wife and I both our experiences here. Food and service was excellent. It was well worth the long drive from St A.

Great steak and potatoes dining experience! Service was excellent and every one of us ordered steak that was cooked perfectly! Great meal!

We love their fried shrimp! We don't eat fried foods often so when we do we are very particular. With their dinner menu they offer a delicious bowl (soup of the day) soup complimentary. The wait staff are very friendly. read more

Great food. Great service. Friendly staff. We will surely return the next time we pass through town.

Best service and seafood we've had in a while, portions were huge, brought 2 to go boxes. place doesn't look like a great place, but was awesome!!!! read more

You need to try the whole catfish dinner it is great take out or go in The primary of night is pretty good too

The food is good. The service depends on your waitress, which yesterday was rude and hateful. The ambiance is a joke!! They need to do a deep clean. The place stinks!! We gave been eating at Bradleys for a few years and have had few complaints BUT it seems to have changed in the last year or so. I feel like yesterday will be our final visit. I am sure they don't care. I wish I knew the girls name that waited on us. read more

Excellent food and service. Prime rib perfectly cooked. Perfect selection of sides. Something for everyone.

If you love home-cooked food this is the place for you I really love Bradleys they always have specials so come check them out

Ok. I deducted one star for subjecting me to the blaring Faux news channel while waiting for a table. Please put it on the weather channel or something that doesn't offend. I absolutely can't stand all the yelling they do on the channel but back to my review. Here in Palatka you have many many good choices for lunch or dinner and that includes some awesome seafood. Bradley's is a small quaint business like trailer that is being used as a restaurant. It's not the cleanest or nicest but the food is very very good and the seafood is very reasonable. The hush puppies are standout and some of the best I've ever had. Service is outstanding. We enjoyed the fried alligator $8 and fried shrimp large 18 pieces $17 Both were very good. The greens were delicious. Cocktail sauce is homemade. It's the little things like homemade sauces and sides that make a good place great. The desserts are not made in house so I opted out. I've heard from several patrons that the Steaks are very very good. Enjoy. read more

This place has been a awarded "Best Lunch" & "Best Overall" restaurant in Palaka for multiple years in a row. So, with this pedigree one would expect a superior meal. But, if you would be expecting that you would be let down. There is nothing negative I can say about the place. The decor is down to earth with nothing pretentious. The Wait Staff was very attentive and extremely friendly. The prices are reasonable and the servings were large, especially for the price point. The menu had all the standard of a Seafood/Stake restaurants of this caliber. Now for flavor.... I found it common with nothing that would make it stand apart or above others. The food was cooked properly and had good flavor, but it was simply average. Overall, I would not put up an argument if my parents wanted to eat there again, but it is not a restaurant I would seek out. There is nothing that would warrant me to discourage anyone from eating there....the food is average, the prices are reasonable and the staff is friendly. read more

This is definitely a great spot for some of the best home cooking, hit home runs every meal. The food is great and the service is top notch. This is where you go to eat good. read more

Cheap price for decent food. Not the best ever but sastifying. They have all you can eat deal on tuesday, wednesday and thursday. My husband tried the all you can eat catfish. It was tasty but very filling bc it was fried. The shrimp is the delicious and probably the best thing to eat here. The meal comes with free vegetable soup. The staffs are nice and friendly. However, you might have to wait very long to get seated at a table, especially during dinner time. read more

The dinner menu is better than the breakfast and lunch menu. If you want to come best to go late. The place is always packed late at night though. Waitresses were attentive. And the place is open and spaced out, way bigger than it looks from the outside. read more

This is an outstanding steak house. The wait staff is incredible. We had the prime rib that was top quality and very good. My husband had the shrimp which he loved BUT could not take his eyes off of my prime rib. So I cut my meal in half and gave it to him. So he also enjoyed my prime rib. This is an all American clean very very good restaurant. Well Done Bradley's Steak house. read more

My dad asked me if I wanted to eat Fried Green Tomatoes for lunch. . Of course I said yes. I tried the Fried Green Tomatoes and he was right. The FGT are lightly breaded bursting with flavor. My taste buds were dancing with excitement and wanting more. I also tried the collar greens, green beans, rutabagas, and fried egg plant. I was not disappointed. A must eat home cooking restaurant for a bargain. Kudos to Bradley's!! Reviewed by a Florida girl living in Texas. read more

Great people and great food. Looks like a triple wide trailer, but has great prime rib. If your driving by give it a try

Our favorite Friday early dinner. I'm stuck on their Prime-rib and loaded potato. However, we like to have dessert first and the Key Lime pie is the best around. After the pie, soup, salad, potato and veggies It's time for that go box to take the rest home for a late night snack, or tomorrow's lunch. Good food, fun staff, great prices with big portions and you can't go wrong. Generally I'll get the king and my lady friend gets the queen for a delicious time. read more

I absolutely love Bradley's. I have eaten there about 5 times and it's always been wonderful.

About as straight forward as food gets. Ordered the meatloaf special, brown gravy, salad with ranch, fried okra. Loved the fact that they were on a wait at 1:00 on a Thursday. I don't often eat in palatka, but when I do, I eat at Bradley's. Stay hungry my friends. read more

Heard a lot about this place, so we tried it. Wasn't really that impressed. Prices are good,good quantity of food and tasted good. But if they call it a seafood and steak restaurant,why are there just 2 seafood items and one steak on the menu? Looks like it isn't even homemade (could be wrong). Much rather go to Corky Bell's,better food and atmosphere. Guess you get what you pay for. read more

Just okay. Not overly impressed. I liked Corky Belles better. Country menu but others better.
