What Peyton McDermott doesn't like about Crokett's Fish Fry Shoppe:
My husband and I have been coming for years but now we’re wondering if they changed owners. As soon as we walked in the whole place reeked of bad fish, yes I know it’s a fish place but it still shouldn’t be smelling that bad. My husband had a allergic reaction to the fish since he’s allergic to shellfish which has not ever happened, the fish just did not taste good at all so needless to say we came home and threw eve...

Special spot for sure, simple menu, great fried fish, good pricing! Will definitely come back!

A longtime favorite spot for fish lovers, Crockett's may have experienced some changes in ownership that left some customers disappointed with the quality of the seafood. However, for many others, this restaurant remains a go-to destination for delicious fried fish, shrimp, and other Southern cuisine favorites. The portions are generous, the staff is welcoming, and the food consistently receives high marks. Some customers did note issues with the smell of fish in the restaurant and occasional wait times for food, but overall, the food's flavor and quality makes a visit to Crockett's worth it. Whether you're craving a tasty fish sandwich, sweet potato pie, or some good old fashioned fish fry with shrimp, Crockett's is a reliable choice for satisfying your seafood cravings.

The fried fish is to die for. The collard greens, mac cheese, and sweet potatoes are delicious, too. I will return every time I'm nearby.Food: 5/5

Good food and good service I didn't know Bobby Salazar's had a place here, but an out-of-town friend did and suggested we meet here for lunch.

Nothing makes me want to write a review more than when a place pisses me off and when they argue with me, a customer.
