Friday perch was good , fries , nothing special , bartender was not very pleasant , but very busy. Old fashioned drinks were very weak , after I commented she did nothing , and the second one was also very weak . I've been to many local pubs and fish fries , and this is far from the best. read more

We've heard this place had the best fish fry around, but the wait times were long, so we made sure we were there early. We timed it well, the place wasn't that busy. We went to the hostess who gave us menus and we asked if we just found a table or if they seated us. She simply said, "we don't serve until 4:30." Ok, fine, but she could have then told us how the process worked, but she did not. We sat at a high table in the bar and upon touching one of the menus, my fingers stuck to it. It's not like these menus were on their 3rd or 4th turn of the night, we were some of the first people there for dinner. Next I go to the bar for some sodas...the bar staff isn't friendly, not even pleasant. He gave me the 2 cans of soda and 2 glasses of ice and I went back to the table. I was about to pour my soda into the glass when I noticed their was some gunk in with my ice, but I go with the flow...I just drank from the can. Our waitress then comes to our table and I notice she's wearing flip-flops. I'm not impressed but figure she maybe just takes the orders in the bar and gets nowhere near the food, but after taking our order she walks into the kitchen! Um...ever heard of the Health Code? Is anyone there certified in safe and proper food handling by the state? Then she comes to tell us we are at table 7 and walks away. When we go into the dining area, our food is on table 10. Within about a minute of sitting down, the waitress comes back and asks if we need anything...we've barely had a chance to take a bite. That was the last time we saw her. I had the beer battered haddock and it was greasy and bland. I don't know if the cook knows the beer goes IN the batter. The onion rings were also very greasy, both the fish and the rings left my lips greasy. The pike my girlfriend had was also greasy and didn't taste like it knew what simple salt and pepper were. My girlfriend, who manages a deli and IS certified by the state in Safe Food Handling, said that the oil must not have been hot enough because that's how fried food ends up being that greasy. We stopped eating and our plates were full of food and we waited for our waitress...and waited...and waited. We finally left the dining area for the hostess stand to ask for our check because it was clear she wasn't coming back. NOW the waitress shows up with our bill at the hostess stand. Over 30 bucks for food we barely touched. My girlfriend headed for the door, but I leaned in to let the hostess know about our horrible experience and that we were first time customers but would not be returning and why...including that a server wearing flip-flops is against the health code! She gave a lackluster sorry as I walked out. If your looking for a good fish fry, think twice...if you are looking for a pleasant experience as a customer, drive past this place with haste. All in all, I advise you spend your hard earned money elsewhere because they don't seem to want it here! read more

Very awkward at night strange crowds kind of slow and dull. Weekends are slower and more odd then during the week nights. Service is ok depending on who's working. read more

went last Friday. The fish was good as was the fries. We had the haddock. Portions were huge compared to the Darboy Club and the fish is better. Only problems were a really long wait to get our order taken (it was Friday...just the way It is) and what is the deal that the waitress can't get you a drink from the bar? We had to go get our own. read more

The fish fry is great....but the policy of making people wait an hour (or more!) for their food so they can make more money from their bar is unacceptable. Call ahead and take it out, or plan on waiting a LONG time for your food. We've been there on nights other than Fridays, and the waiting policy is the same on all of the nights we have been there. Too bad, as this place would be a gem without the enforced waiting times. read more

best fish and its worth the wait. When you get there they are upfront about the wait so you have no reason to get upset to why you need to wait. They also have great weekday specials and drink specials. read more

Just returned from friday fish fry. This place has a problem that they can't afford to address, or aren't willing to address. The food isn't worth the wait. They are up-front about the wait, but you should be prepared to be meagerly satisfied for the amount of time you invest. . My Brandy Old Fashioned was made with a squirt from a converted ketchup bottle. I asked for a Diet Coke and was handed a can of Diet Pepsi, didn't even ask if it was ok. The two bartenders who served me were as uninterested as they could be. We stood by the pool table, which is next to one of the two entrances, and the hostess station. Half of the people who came in, left because of the wait. Imagine being a business owner and being okay with watching that much business walk out every Friday. Congratulations on continuing to pack them in on Fridays, but I can't see you sustaining Friday business at this service level. My $45 for dinner/drinks for two is better spent on steaks from Haen's and a dinner on the grill at home. read more
